The Bodda Getta

Never embarrassed to be an Auburn alum. Never.

Go to another school!
AMF!

Although I rarely post, I spend a good portion of my time reading all the articles and probably more than 85% of the posts (both on articles and Bodda Getta board threads -- despite my wife's objection). And though I am sorely disappointed with the season and at a loss to even begin to explain the multiple variables attributing to this dismal performance, I could NEVER be "embarrassed to be an AU alumnus"! I might be living in Texas where the 'football' heat is not as intense as it may be for some AU fans in Alabama, but I still go to my Sunday School class and worship services on Sunday's wearing my Auburn gear. And why not...I don't remember anyone giving me an athletic scholarship at AU for graduating top of my class in the College of Engineering. I'm proud of my ME degree because I was more than prepared to compete with the LSU, OU, OSU, UT (Texas, not Tennessee) and TAMU petroleum engineering graduates in the oil & gas industry. I'm proud of AUBURN...my son went to and graduated from Auburn (out-of-state tuition and flight school expenses to boot), my financial contributions go to Auburn's Samuel Ginn College of Engineering and Department of Mechanical Engineering. I support AUBURN...I cheer for the athletic programs at Auburn...I don't live for the athletic programs at Auburn. Maybe you should be embarrassed of the level of play by the Auburn football team and coaching staff. But, good grief, embarrassed to be an AU alumnus? Like a famous fictional Alabama football player quipped "Stupid is what Stupid does"!
