OT: JGT can’t go to San Diego due to outstanding warrant

I'm glad to see I'm not the only person who doesn't know how to post a screen shot.
 
I thought it was because he thinks AU MBB is “anything but a sure bet” and didn’t want to spend the money. Said he’d rather save it to spend on the CFP next year.
I lol’d when I read that last part and prayed he meant that tongue in cheek.

i think it’s both. If he was an Au fan at all, he’d be there. Hell, he gets to write it all off.
 
Lulz, dude is straight trash.

P Marshall is also having a tough time to decide to watch:

"What a Friday night it will be for Auburn athletics this week. At the same time, Auburn's basketball team will be playing in the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 15 years, the No. 13 baseball team will be playing its SEC opener against Texas A&M at Plainsman Park and the softball team will be playing Alabama at Jane B. Moore Field. What is a reporter/columnist to do? I honestly haven't decided yet."

You serious Phillip?

Surely he was joking?

We talking men’s softball v bama? Either way the Boog beat is a disgrace.
 
Nothing to do with warrants or other exciting Boog games to watch and everything to do with neither site owner wanting to fork up 2k-ish to possibly go see the Boogs lose in the 1st rd

Yeah both sites seem to basically be of the belief that AU hoops is on a downtrend and not worth the travel expense. For the record, I don't think they are wrong about that. We are highly unlikely now to go on a run to the Final Four. If we were 20% to get to the Elite 8 back when we were at the top of our game we're 2% now. That's just the reality of it.

That said, their job is to cover sports for the AU fan base. We have a gazillion baseball and softball weekends left they can cover. The hoops team may feel like a bit of a lost cause but I think you should still go if this is your job. And what happens if this team does go on a great run now. What if we win on a buzzer beater in Round 2 and you weren't there to cover it...as a site dedicated to AU sports. If you decided instead it was important to cover one of the baseball or softball series that are just one of many to come?

Seems weak

In the real world where actual standards existed and there was a fanbase willing to demand those standards be met, the team in the post-season would obviously be covered. In boog sports, softball and baseball games in March are somehow excuses for not covering the premier team in boog athletics.

A big part of this is on the site owners for not being willing to do the right thing IMO.

Another part is on the fanbase for basically caring about football and nothing else unless we're good at it. They jumped off the hoops bandwagon as soon as baseball or equestrian or whatever random thing shows some promise. It's lame, but it's where we are in this state.

The more I think about it the more pathetic it seems. Let’s just say PM played baseball at AU and spent the last 35 years obsessing over it like Tater did softball when he had an in with the coarch. If Baseball was in game one of the CWS I’d almost give him a pass if he chose to go to Omaha instead of San Diego. But none of that is the case. He and Tate are both pitiful excuses for AU best guys if they don’t go. No way around it. The fact that he took the time to compare softball just makes him a complete idiot regardless.

There wasn’t 1 gamethread all weekend from softball which was strange bc there was always one no matter what the last few years.
 
It's not like they have 1 total employee right. You have 3 guys who do work there. One could stay in Auburn. One could go to San Diego. One could do nothing.

Exactly. I’d kill to be able to go and tax deduct the whole thing. If I was Pearl, none of them would get the time of day from me or my players till the end of time.

EDIT: An astute businessman in this arena would have 15 to 20K set aside for exactly this purpose. Anything not spent would carry over to the next year and money put in to replenish what was spent. I would expect every major sports team to reach championship game levels and would have the money in the business to fund it.

Or at minimum a line of credit in reserve.
 
Does Jay think the San Diego PD will be awaiting him at the airport or something? I'm skeptical that it wasn't anything but an unpaid parking ticket. Hell I'll call the San Diego PD right now and see if there are any warrants out for Jay Gary (?) Tate's arrest. If there are, I'll notify Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Can you imagine Dog showing up at Voodoo's wings while Jay is broadcasting a live podcast? Would be hilarious IMHO.

Anyways - I love you guys!

I’m dying. What is his middle name? I’ll do it. I’ll be in San Diego, I’ll literally go to the PD. May even have someone record me for the board.
