  1. Auburn is going to lose because they suck, not because of a bad call by the refs.
  2. ou beating bama is funny because we beat them by 31
  3. A bit of advice. When learning the cello, I got mixed advice on how to play loudly. Phyllis Young at UT told me to play as loudly as possible, so that you hear your mistakes; other teachers taught me to practice at the volume I intend to perform at. In that case, both my own judgment/experience -- and the stellar performing/careers of the others -- made me decide to practice at the volume I intend to perform at. Something I've noticed on the guitar -- since my goal is to mostly be doing things at extreme amounts of gain -- is that I have to be FAR more accurate and deliberate with the gain/distortion cranked than I do playing clean/acoustic. And since I'm typically practicing with high gain, I've had to develop more accurate left-hand techniques and much better muting than I ever did when I was just playing acoustic. Not only that, but when I do switch to clean channel/acoustic sounds, it's much easier to play that way. Also: Shut off all the effects, too, except for maybe a wee bit of reverb. Chorus is going to disguise when you're out of tune, gating is going to mask small errors you make, delay... fuckin' seriously? Yeah, you may record with all those things, but when you're practicing, you don't want effects to hide your mistakes.
  4. I blew $225 on a Yamaha Pacifica 016DLX and have exactly zero regrets. Amazingly well-made, easy-to-play and good-sounding guitar for the price.
  5. Great win. Trap game next week, I hope we don't overlook it while celebrating.
  6. Our defense has much more moxie, unfortunately for him.
  7. Oh, and South Carolina beating the pants off of wu (tee-hee!)
  8. How about a non-fumbling and non-injured RB or two?
  9. Tell you what, though. This UK QB has moxie.
  10. "Well, other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?"
  11. Reminds me of that 4th-quarter drive against Bama. Just an absolute... "We were just letting you get your hopes up so that we could crush them properly."
  12. His momma says his name is Quintrevion, so I'mma call him Quentrevion
  13. After seeing Gunnar Helm with yet another amazing play, now is a great time to remind everyone to PURCHASE A BURNT ENDS SUBSCRIPTION AND HELP BUY MORE GREAT TE'S
  14. God dammit. Everyone dropping balls.
  15. Dunno if you noticed this, but he sucks. So they're trying someone else to see if he sucks less, kinda like what we did in the second quarter against Georgia.
  16. No. But he's the worst at protecting the ball. There's a reason he's our 4th stringer.
