Yeesh.  Glad you (literally) made it out alive.

Fuck me. That’s too much. When I got my big brother we just had a party. I drank too much bourbon and puked.

Legit question here: did you have any idea ATO was going to haze the fuck out of you?

I understand joining a fraternity. I was in one. What I’ve never understood is joining the fraternity that is known for hazing.

Why, yes. Yes it is.

The returner swings his left arm in a way that could be mistaken for a fair catch.  I think the refs just missed one.

Am I the only one that thought the receiver flailed his arms?  Every time I see the replay, I feel like he’s swinging his left arm and calling fair catch.

I really hope most people understand that yours is the most likely explanation.

I used to think like you did. Then last year we were vacationing in Orange Beach, AL when Tropical Storm Nate, teetering on hurricane strength with 70mph winds, came ashore right where we were staying.

This comment cannot receive enough stars.

Please tell me “charity bin” is some kind of weird British slang for garbage can?

So you’re saying that ol’ Brent went for a kinda-witty inside joke?

Yeah, this is not cool. Not cool at all.

but at the same time that reticence empties any threats they make, and it’s the threat that’s supposed to keep institutions in line.

I never really took issue with what SACS did. It was arguably overkill, but Auburn was definitely guilty of the crimes for which it was accused. (I was never really that worried about Auburn losing accreditation. It was undeniably a legitimate, viable university, which should be the bottom line on a subject like…

I was a senior at Auburn in 2002/03 when SACS — Auburn’s accreditation org — placed the university on probation. The reason? They decided that some board of trustees members had too much power in the closing of an academic department and the hiring/firing of the football coach.

It’s a good joke, but in all seriousness, doesn’t Jambo kinda belong in his own category? I wanted to make a joke about his crime of a pre-game speech (‘Eat the W...’), but I just can’t. That dude has (probably) done some legitimately bad stuff.

Hacker proof? Of course not.

The National Enquirer is run by shitty people?!?  I’m shocked!

A lot of the information had already been summarized and released in the form of the joint statement from all 17 US intelligence agencies. It wasn’t the content per se, it was what the Russians might pick up by reading between the lines.
