This show was recommended to us yesterday by the Bama fan who's been on CF the past couple days. These people are going nuts right now. It should be interesting.

 

[LeaningCy]

Starting now...

This is good, first caller "I want all Auburn fans to take there season tickets, write "up yours" on them and then send them back to the University"

 

[LeaningCy]

OK, obviously I am the only one listening to this, but if you have nothing better to do, these callers are hilarious.

 

[ornryactor]

Nope, I'm on it, too. That last woman had to have been at least 85 years old, and an Alabama fan to boot, and even SHE'S calling in to say what a stupid move they made.

I love listening to these people, with the exception of how dang slow they talk. (I like how he hung up on the woman who couldn't get past "War Eagle".)

 

[ISU_Alum_2000]

I just started listening. Should be interesting.

 

[yCy]

I tried to listen, but the server is down.

 

[ornryactor]

Keep trying. I had to try two or three times, but it loaded right up after that. I think their site is getting hit really hard right now.

They put a hold on the call-in segment for now, and are talking to some guy that sounds like he actually has a halfway-informed opinion.

 

[The_Architect]

I've been listening. They are really concerned with what Sir Charles had to say. Basically saying the Barkley just ruined Auburn recruiting today.

The discussion is now about the racism they still live with in the deep south. It's very interesting perspective and worth listening to.

 

[ISU_Alum_2000]

People knew Turner Gill and Charlie Strong would never get the Auburn job because they have White wives? Ugh.

Thank God I was not born and raised in the Deep South.

 

[LeaningCy]

It is very interesting. Anyone else hear the caller who used to work in the athletic department at Auburn? He was promised a higher up job when he graduated, but he got into a relationship with a black woman, his future wife. He was flat out told by a superior that he was an embarrassment and that he needed to end it or leave.

He left Auburn immediately and never went back.

Yeah, that was painful to listen to. :no:

I heard that and was shocked at what he was saying. Did you also hear him talk about how it was relation of his and someone of "substantial stature" in Auburn Athletic Department that forced him to resign? I took it, and I think the radio host made the same assumption, that it is this big booster that has so much power over the Auburn AD.

They just played an audio click of some guy heckling Chizik and wanting Turner Gill. Priceless.

 

[ornryactor]

OH MY GOD, please tell me you guys just heard that! The letter from the president of State of the Nation (Bama fansite), followed immediately by the "leader not a loser" guy from the Auburn airport!

This is freaking hilarious. This almost makes it worth not working on my final projects...

 

[The_Architect]

I set my headphones down for a minute and missed the heckling.

 

[JRE1975]

This guy actually seems much better than anything we have in the Des Moines market! He must be good, they don't have any trouble selling ads!

 

[ISU_Alum_2000]

Finebaum just mentioned that they were going to speak to "someone that covered Gene Chizik at Iowa State". Did he mention earlier who that will be?

 

[Cyclonesrule91]

Holy Smokes, I didn't understand one complete sentence this last guy just said calling in.....

He also just said before inaudible caller that he was going to be interviewing someone who followed Chizik while at ISU. Suppose it will be one of the Des Moines RAG hack sports reporters?

 

[LindenCy]

About Chizik: this guy can be controlled based on everything...

So has he interviewed this person yet? Any idea who it was?
