During the 2nd World War, after an unfortunate series of events. A Nazi commander had a whole village lined up and executed. Every man woman and child.

When he was tried for his war crimes his primary defense was that it was an act of war. And that the Soviets had done just as bad or worse.

Think about it.

Yes Trooper, they edited out what were secondary violations. Why did they do that? Were they asked to do it? Or did they do it on their own volition? Either case exposes a bias on the part of the publisher that would make the site a booster of Auburn.

I think this is a problem with every team site. They pursue an agenda. Some sites are likely worse than others. A solid investigation would no doubt reveal how serious this problem is.

As for Rivals, the company was sold to YAHOO and the founder is no longer with the company. (At least that is what I have heard.)

Cap, covered up Auburns cheating? What, on a secondary violation? Stretching aren’t we?

Do you think rivals hasn’t worked for Bama? I know your not that naive either. The owner is a bama fan thats under federal scrutiny. I think??

Anyway, whatever makes you sleep better at night.

Have a great 4th everybody on the cap site and be safe.

A “Toomer’s Report” would be welcomed. Because finally thier would be an Auburn journalist who actually told THE WHOLE TRUTH (good and BAD).
That would be a novel idea.

I want the Internet to remain free of government interference.

What I don’t want to see is the NCAA allow some “boosters” to corrupt the recruiting process while attacking other “boosters” for corrupting the recruiting process.

A little attention, a few threats and increased attention is probably all that is necessary to restrain the greatest problems here.

maybe a toomers t p report, pluto.

really cap, he has a point.

plus you’re kicking a favored antbed of many, recruiting and their access to “information” about it.

I would advise some caution here. I would prefer that the Net – for all it’s sleaze – continue to function as free as possible – for as long as possible – until the benevolent “Dear Leader” shuts it down. Those that take information – gossip – whatever the hell as the literal truth – nothing can be done for them.
As far as the Bama Nation – the one endearing quality about this Family is that there are enough cynics around to try and keep it reasonably honest and foster arguments against the status quo. All of this is missing at most places – notably Auburn. Perhaps that explains why the tiny number of Aubie doubters wind up here.
Can you imagine a “Tommers Report” ? No – hell no.
