Letter from a Lee County Jail

My Dear Fellow Alabama Fans:
While confined here in the Auburn City Jail, I came across your recent statements calling my previous activities "Unwise and Foolish." Seldom do I pause and answer criticism of my work and ideas. I am in Auburn because injustice is here. Just as the prophets of Bear Bryant Left their trailer parks and carried their "Thus saith the Bear" far beyond the boundaries of Tuscaloosa County, And just as Saint Nick has left his village of Miami and carried the gospel of The Bear to the far corners of Alabama, so am I compelled to carry the gospel of killing trees because Auburn won the National Championship.

You deplore the winning taking place in Auburn, but your actions, I'm sorry to say fail to reflect the dire need for revenge. You may well ask: "why direct action? Why poisoning trees? Why fake audio tapes? Isn't message board posting, or calling in radio shows enough?" While I commend you for this, it is not enough. We must kill trees, lie, and take direct action. The Alabama fan has many pent up resentments and latent frustrations with Auburn fans, and he must release them. I have tried to say that my normal and healthy mind can be channeled into the creative outlet of nonviolent direct action. And now my actions are being termed extremist.

If I have said anything in this letter that overstates the truth and indicates an unreasonable impatience, I beg you to forgive me. If I have said anything that understates the truth and indicates my having a patience that allows me to settle for anything less than brotherhood, I beg You to forgive me.

Yours for the cause of Auburn going down, Harvey Updyke

Birmingham News boycott

I've been hearing some yahoo Bama fan on the radio trying to organize a boycott of the B'ham News. He said Auburn is getting all the press the past year, and Alabama is on the backburner. Hello, moron, Auburn just won the National Championship, of course the coverage will be slanted towards Auburn. Do you not remember the previous year? Alabama was all over the B'ham News. How about the past 50 years? For the first time I can remember, Auburn has gotten fair coverage from the News, and some nitwit Bama homer wants a boycott. Good luck.

NASCAR and Bassmasters

On Sunday, Kevin VanDam won his 4th Bassmasters Classic title. He tied Rick Clunn for most Classic wins all time. He is 6th time Toyota Tundra Angler Of The Year, and considered by many, to be the greatest bass fisherman of all time. VanDam is from Kalamazoo, Michigan. NASCAR got cranked up Sunday as well. Jimmie Johnson, the sports golden boy has won 5 consecutive NASCAR Sprint Cup Championships. Johnson, like VanDam is considered the best at his sport. J.J. is from El Cajon, California. What has happened to these traditional southern redneck sports? They are being overtaken by yankees and Californians. They're still lots of Southern boys in these two sports, but it seems non-southerners are currently the best. We need to take the power back. At least we are still the best in College Football....for now.

Daytona

I hope Jr. can pull off the win today. It would be awesome for him to do it on the 10th anniversary of his fathers death at Daytona.

Iraqi Dinar scam?

Have you heard the phrase "if it looks too good to be true, it probably is"? The Iraqi Dinar is the official currency of Iraq. Many people are buying Dinars from dealers in hopes of making a large profit. The dealers promise to make the buyers virtually millionaires once The Dinar appreciates. The belief is that once Iraq stabilizes the Dinar will appreciate, and investors will make around 10 times their original investment. I have a friend that works for Fedex. He said these things are flying off the shelves, so to speak. He said he averages about 3 stops a day on his route for people getting Dinars delivered. And these people, for the most part are on the lower end of the economic class chart. If you do research, the only people saying good things about the Dinars are the dealers. Heres some interesting links.

If you've got Finebaum money, go for it, take the risk. Otherwise I wouldn't recommend it.

David Akers

Philadelphia Eagles kicker David Akers found out two days before the NFC wildcard loss to the Greenbay Packers that his 6 year old daughter had a cancerous cyst in her ovary. Akers missed two relatively easy field goals in the game that could of won it for the Eagles. So what did his coach Andy Reid say after the game? "we can all count. Those points would of helped" Rewind two years. Reids two sons are sent to prison for running a drug ring. The Judge called the family a "family in crisis" and the Reid home a "drug emporium" It seems to me Reids priorities are football first,family somewhere else down the line. I can't imagine what Akers was going through, with his daughter. I would be out of Philly tomorrow if I were him. Akers daughter Halley had one ovary removed, and doctors believed they removed all of the tumor. She will likely have to have her other ovary removed. She is 6 years old. The family is in my prayers.

Shane from Centerpoint

If you listen to the Paul Finebaum Radio Network, then you know Shane from Centerpoint. If you don't, he is a local ice salesman who calls in everyday at the 4:00 hour on Pauls show. His purpose in life is to bring down Auburn University, and get ice to the masses. I've compiled a top ten list dedicated to Shane from Centerpoint.


Top ten reasons Shane from Centerpoint has no clue

10. Shane claims to be an investigative reporter, but all his information about Auburn is regurgitated from internet message boards. Mainly the Tiger Droppings Rant http://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/p/22778676/As-the-Plains-Burn-------Updated-1-23-2011-pg-925.aspx 

9. He has a list of subjects to talk about when he calls, so when Paul changes the subject he's like uh, uh, lets get back to what I was talking about. His brain will not allow him to go off his script.

8. Chette Williams (failed)

7.Shane has been beat down so many times, Im surprised he has any pride left. The Chris Vernon beat down was epic. Not to mention the countless Bobby from 35209 beatdowns. When confronted about his beatdowns,  he just blows it off. I think he has them so far suppressed, he doesn't believe they happened.

6. Hey Paul, Paul, your right Paul, you know Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul what do you think Paul? Paul, Paul.

5. He was fired from The Western Star. (really, the Western Star)

4. He now writes (loosly) for The Call News, out of the newspaper mecca Citronelle, Alabama. ha ha.

3. http://finebaumfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/shane.jpg   enough said

2. He chooses to live in Centerpoint, Alabama

1. He cannot deal with the fact that St. Nick was outcoached by Chizik, and Auburn won the National Championship.
