The Boneyard is worth a listen if you haven't already checked-in this week. The sands in the hourglass are quickly expiring on the NOA clock. I just wish Rosebowl would spend more time talking about when it has ever been a good thing to lie to the NCAA.

Rosebowl encourages others to live a life where they "make more friends than enemies." Well, quite frankly, Rosebowl has now made more enemies than friends at the CL, and his friends have short shrift there. The CL did have someone willing to expose the improprieties in Oxfart. He however abruptly and inexplicably resigned eight months ago. Before he left, he did leave us this forgotten jewel. Godspeed Riley Blevins.

I don't follow Rosebowl on twitter, but

I got on there a little while ago and read some of the tweets from OM fans...holy cow, there are lots of idiots in this world. One of these guys was some teacher, allegedly. I hate to know that my kids were being guided by that guy.

One of my favorite, no scratch that...my favorite thing to do on Twitter is to look at the profiles of the people that make obscene comments. 75% of those bios include "Proud, Christian dad".

They are saying all kinds of **** about him. You can't make up the lunacy that makes up the OM fanbase.

You should check his twitters every now and then. It's insane. They're accusing him of being a current cocaine user and child molester.

My love for Missisissippi State University runs deep. But there is no way in hell I would act the way these people are acting. Over FOOTBALL. It is beyond crazy to me. I've said they were a cult for the longest time and this type of behavior further cements it.

Yeah that's what I was

reading, earlier. Where TF did they come up with him being a child molester? What in the world are they talking about? Like others have pointed out, the vast majority of these people have some form or another of "proud Christian father, etc." in their bio. There are some ridiculous people in the OM world.

Wow. I just read over some of the posts from Ole Miss fans. I don't do the twitters but does every fan base have as many endless numbers of twitter warriors constantly trying to "right the wrongs" as Ole Miss does? I mean these dudes will quote a bible verse and about how they just "won the day", then accuse a man of child abuse?

We have them too but damn

One OM guy said Freeze has "a history of dismissing players quickly for offenses". WTH. I can't remember anyone he dismissed. Especially if they were worth a dang.

I don't know if that's the same sandy ****** sugar daddy who got ousted over here, or whether way too many OM dooshes have 'sand' in their usernames. Either way, that guy is terrible.

My first instinct was to say no way. Too much tail to stalk on the beaches this time of year. But at second glance, that has to be him.

I remember one guy being dismissed for being deaf or something (but it was the Christian thing to do).

Is the new spin that it was "only" boosters paying Tunsil and not coaches?
Click to expand...

The new spin is that they have disassociated themselves from the persons who did NOT pay T$UNil. It took months of internal investigation before any suspects could be identified and allegations could be made toward their noncompliance to Network rules. Some people admitted to paying his overdue book fines at the library, well at least until it was learned that T$UNil did not know that the Library actually contained books.

Fantastic quote from Steve...

While discussing the embarrassingly piss-poor job the C/L has done following this story, and with regard to there being almost NO first-hand stories written by C/L reporters (all they are doing is saying "The Miami Herald reports..." or "The Washington Post is saying..."), Steve brought the heat.

I'm paraphrasing: "If you're having to regularly reference other people's reports, either 1. you're not very good at your job, or 2. you're complicit in a cover-up." Actually, I think it's probably both, but well said...

Ole Miss folks know the power of media spin. They are experts on the 1954 Guatemala coup, where the President was overthrown not by bullets but by constant lies in the media (radio mostly).

In all fairness, Jim Fowler of the Upson Beacon is world reknown for jumping out in front of controversies with his hard hitting pieces on corruption in sports. I doubt Hugh Kellenburger has the type of resources and contacts that Fowler has.

It could also be that they are afraid to risk their low paying journalism paycheck to report on something that would infuriate the brass at CL

Yep, the one guy who did his job got canned for it. The message was sent loud and clear that the CL better not be the first to stick their noses into anything.

One thing social media has shown me is the large amount of people who have equated their school of choice with good. Everything else evil. Often times that comes to the ultimate good vs evil common denominator: Jesus vs devil. There is a certain blog (that'll remain nameless) who is obsessed with creating memes of their players and coaches with accompanying bible verses. The whole religion mixed with sports grosses me out. There is a large contingent of our in-state brethren insisting that the current NCAA issues is spiritual warfarr against them personally & their school/players/coaches.

Social media has exposed mental issues with a huge segment of society period. I listen to Podcasts and read this board but that's about it with my internet existence. Age has some to do with that but also my extremely low tolerance to ******** and idiots.

Parenting in this mess is a task.

Please...you don't need social media to figure out that a segment of each fanbase is insane. You are a moderator at elitedawgs.

I was speaking to the whole weird mix of religion and sports. What does me being a moderator on a board have to do with anything? Your home board celebrated the death on an sps poster's uncle. If you want to have a tired debate over SEC fans and the crazy **** they say on Twitter, FB, and MB's... Be my guest. It's weird to me that people mix their religious beliefs in to their fandoms and that was the whole point of my post. You played 7 degrees of separation just so you could say "Elitedawgs".
