When one considers what that poor illiterate state achieves, steals & sells itself as? It's amazing. For them to work out a deal with Boone Pickens to make Oklahoma State to throw a game with Iowa State so Alabama gets another crack at LSU is nothing short of remarkable. (Thursday Night ESPN game which if #2OSU wins they likely face LSU in the BCSNC) PS My ear, nose throat doctor who is a LSU fan attended the BCSNC game 01/09/12 with his girlfriend. During the course of my examination we discussed the game. His statement to me was and I quote: "I was informed from a source I trust from Houston who told me that Jordan Jefferson (LSU QB 2011-12) was paid well over 100K by Alabama boosters to lose the game." I submit this statement because it is a true story and no other purpose. I take nothing away from Alabama's great effort in the game. (which it was) I also learned last spring that accusations of a natural strength enhancement deer antler spray was alleged to have been used by Alabama's athletes before the game as well.
Gee, I haven't seen an arrogant post by Tusk on this thread yet. And the thread is a Bama themed one - usually he will outnumber everyone else in his responses and hijack the thread. Curiously, that is not happening. Terry, on the other hand, at least tries to offer meaningful insight. He's a homer, but so are all of us, and we would be shitting right now if the allegations were against LSU, so I understand his minimal input at this point. Lastly, there may be a reason why the LDavis', DJFlukers', and CRob's haven't come to LSU, we aren't playing the pay game - at least, I hope that's the case
He's been trying to reply since last night, but is having real trouble trying to make this one sound pseudo-poetic.
Right. I suppose Georgia must have paid him $50k to play the exact same way in the 1st half of the CCG. JJ had played that way many times in his career, and I doubt the likes of Vandy, MooU, WV, etc. were ponying up cash. (I can't believe I just dignified that absurd statement with a response)
I suppose anything is possible. Regarding the claim re Jefferson, that ill-advised flip to Spencer Ware certainly looked suspect! Especially considering Ware wasn't even looking and JJ put it right into the hands of an Alabama player...
True! I forgot about that... All kinds of stuff out there, and continuing to come out of the woodwork. Gotta take most of it with a grain of salt.
