As Ashleigh went in to the doctor's office, I waited in the car to hear the rest of the interview. I sat in the parking lot with my window half down minding my own business. That's when a guy comes by the car, seeing my Auburn pullover, mumbles something then follows it up with "Y'all are getting beat this weekend." I thought it odd, that someone I barely noticed went out of their way to prove his disdain for my team.
I brushed it off, and went back to the radio. About a minute passed and he walks back by my car, stops and says, "It's back to the red-headed-step-children for Auburn. They won't be good ever again." I replied, "Well, I guess that's one way of looking at it." He said, "They ain't beat nobody. West Virginia gave the game away. You're going to lose this weekend." I bit my toungue as he stared with disdain into my car. He finally walked off. I went back to my radio.
By this time, I ran through my head the absolute joy that I felt he was not a fellow Auburn fan. The third and final trip by my car went like this. "Y'all are going to lose this weekend (the third proclamation by the Nostradomus of Football). I want you to come back Monday and tell me how bad y'all are."

Sorry that happened, man. Obviously, I hope Tennessee wins! But there's no place for stuff like that. Good job on keeping your cool. I just hope he wasn't a UT fan!
Jason,
He was an Alabama fan. Just for the record, I hope that the only Tennessee team to win this weekend is the Titans. ;)
At this point, I'd take a win from either of my Tennessee teams. But this weekend doesn't look any better: Georgia and Indianapolis!
Hey man, you still blogging? Time to give us an update, dude.
