Change is in the Air


EDSBS is reporting that Tuberville is done at Auburn: http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/


I had no idea that Tuberville shilled for Golden Flake or even that the company still existed. As a kid, I visited Alabama often (mom's family) and billboards and commercials featuring Bear Bryant extolling the virtues of those taters were everywhere. They're called "crisps" over in that England place. On trains, these pathetic guys go up and down the aisles with a "crisp lorry" or cart or whatever they call it, lisping out "Crisps" to uninterested passengers. All I know is that when it's all said and done, I won't have shovelled shit in in Louisiana or sold potato products on the route between Wimbledon and King's Cross.


Full dislosure: I have shovelled shit in Texas. Lots of it.

Rode that same ride about twice a day for a 10 day stretch, and know exactly what you are talking about. Only thing good was the beer waiting at either end of the run.

Saw on ESPN that Leach visited the Washington campus. Should be an interesting while we wait for the bowl games.

Leach is a different kind of cat, so maybe he is giving serious consideration to Washington. But, at Auburn you're sitting right in the middle of some fairly good talent, both in terms of football players and Pi Phis.
