Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


CRIMSON TIDE VS TEXAS AM

First Time ever Posting a Blog, So im going to have a go at this

 

CN we have gotta be voting today!!!! I hate everything that is Fran! It sucks enough that he will be broadcasting our game on the Radio(thank God its not on TV, or my shoe will go through it) but we gotta face the A&M Aggies. So take 2 minutes out of your day to vote for the Crimson and White.

 

Later Days

Jason

Apparently

I left out the ’s’ in ‘helmets’ from the URL. If I had messed up, I would have seen the link as well. Bummer that they left it exposed before the time it said.

Looks like we’re not the only fans who can do a little link fishing. I would imagine that the votes won’t be reset, so as the OP said, lets get to it.

Check that

It’s linked off of the main sportsnation page.

What the Hell are they doing?

First Espn screws with the Bama vs. Clemson poll so I couldn’t vote till like 11:00 then here is a link to tommorows poll that you can vote on today?? Somthing looks a little rigged?

Ok

i think ESPN screwed up! I went back to check on the “progress” and now they have the poll up for FSU and USF. I think they figured it out and fixed it.

Time`s awasting – late in the 4th quarter – get out the vote!

by TBM on Aug 7, 2008 2:23 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

wait wait wait

don’t follow the link. Go to espn.com, then to the college football home page and then scroll down till you see the college football live logo in the middle of the page. Click that link and it takes you to the USF/FSU poll.

bammer's link...

...supposedly just let me vote, but it says the same thing imaBamafan said it said around 3pm – us winning 50.5% to 49.4%. EZ – Michigan, Penn St, and ND were all in the competition and LOST. Let’s face it, this isn’t about the helmets. It’s about who has the biggest fan base that’ll come out and vote on these crazy polls. As much as I dislike Michigan, their helmet is one of the most recognizable in college football and pretty cool. Don’t get me wrong, I do not want to change our “classic” helmet, but in the beginning I might have chosen something more unique.

yeah, that's what i meant to say.

as of 345pm ET Thursday, with 168k votes, we are up 55.5% to 44.4%.

by EZ on Aug 8, 2008 9:35 AM CDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

We're looking good...

53.8 to 46.1 with over 234,000 votes. That has to be the most votes for any of the competitions.

Yeah, read Bammer's latest fanshot
