Submit Your Questions for "Hey Todd!"


...dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the RBR radio...

If it's Wednesday, then it's time once again for the RBR Radio Hour(ish). Tonight's topics include, but are not limited to:

  1. Terrence Cody - Once he has graduated and it's legal to provide him with extra benefits, what are you willing to give?
  2. Leigh Tiffin - Who woulda thunk it?
  3. Greg McElroy - Will the bye week do him some good?
  4. Two Passes Near the Goal Line - In defense of the first (but definitely not the second)
  5. The Bye Week - What should the Tide be focusing on with an open date?

Leave your questions and topics in the comments section below, and we'll see you tonight at 8:00pm CST at TalkShoe.

Bye week

I would get the WRs and QBs and a couple linemen together with some second team DBs. I’d have throwing drills designed to build the confidence of the WRs and McElroy in unison, and I’d have drills where the DBs hung on the guys and they were encouraged to catch it regardless of the call they’d get. I’d get zen with those guys “See yourself catching the ball . . .” I’d work on those guys all week out on their own while the rest of the team did its thing.

I’d have post-catch runnig drills and tackle breaking drills, I’d want McElroy and those WRs going onto the field with the confidence of Rolando McClain, thinking they wwere wearing Red capes and leaping tall buildings.

Then next week I’d put them back in with everyone else and I’d alternate stressing passing and run blocking downfield and I’d strive for lean, mean safety-like WRs who wante dthe ball and when they did not have it wanted to knock someone’s damned head off.

Just a thought, I mean, that’s the one thing I think I’d want to see the greatest improvement in—unitybetween McElroy and all his tossing targets, and WR game time mentality.

But you guys know your team better than I do, so pick me apart, I’ll happily be corrected.

See the Ball

be the ball, catch the ball. drop the ball and run your arse off.

Auburn fans are like slinkys... not really good for anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

I think...

…we should make insulting Joy Division against the RBR terms of service and grounds for a ban.

by Nico2.0 on Oct 28, 2009 9:05 AM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Eh...

….even I only like about 30% of their output. Insulting Skynyrd or Hank Jr. on the other hand, that’s a definite banning.

Are you going to see....

…Hank III at Zydeco next month? That should be fun.

by Nico2.0 on Oct 28, 2009 9:34 AM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Maybe...

…I don’t much care for him, though. The one time I did see him he only did his punk/metal stuff, which is fine if that’s what you are into, but as someone who only likes his country stuff….

To my knowledge...

…his format these days is one set of country to kick things off and then close the night with punk/metal.

by Nico2.0 on Oct 28, 2009 10:08 AM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

He was opening...

….for Rev. Horton Heat, so only did the one set.

im sorry...as a life

long musician, who’s family is full of them (Uncle is a jazz piano player in NYC, Aunt is an Opera singer in NYC, brother is an amazing “jam” guitarist who played with Phish, sister went to UA on a cello scholly, mother is a lifelong piano teacher, the list goes on and on)…i have very good taste in music and that song….sucked…

Guitar riff was unimaginable and the bass line/ drum rhythm was “ok”…didn’t really understand why the guitar didn’t fit the bass…were they trying to sound off key? On purpose?

Anyways…just wanted you to know im not some guy who thinks "Creed" is a good band…

I figured as much...

…but just figured I’d check to make sure. :p

Todd...

Can we go deep, just once in the second half of the season? Pleeeeaaaaase?

Why aren’t we taking chances downfield? I am excited that we are 8-0, and very proud of our players and coaches. We have come a long way in a short period of time, but goddamnit, does the offensive staff not see how stale our O has been the last 3 games?

 It seems like we are falling into the same pattern as we did late last year where we dink and dunk and don’t thrown anything farther than 10 yards downfield.

Let’s face it guys, we aren’t going to be able to run the ball on LSU like we did on USC, and if our play calling doesn’t get any better, we stand a good chance of getting beat.

To answer question #1

My sister and soon-to-be-ex-wife. He deserves at least that.

Questions for 'Hey, Todd'...

1. Will we really get banned if we insult Blowcephus? Explain.
2. Did anyone else notice that, in addition to the usual Hells Bells intro, the PA played TNT as well Saturday?
3. If you Add It Up, what is Joy Division’s I Remember Nothing plus Haircut 100’s Love Plus One?
4. If Lame Kitten drank WD-40, would his voice still whine and squeak like it does?
5. Does Steve Spurrier enjoy being a ‘Cock?
6. Was Houston Nutty for not getting the ball to Dexter McCluster more vs. Bama?
7. Will Kentucky find the wings to play in a bowl, or will they get fried?
8. When Dikembe Mutumbo sees Ryan Mallet play, does he think, “Man, that guy is short….”
9. Will Va. Tech’s upcoming loss to ECU hurt our chances of winning the BCSCG?
10. Who will Les Miles kiss after the Tulane game? Discuss.

Hey Todd will you eat something really very disgusting

this week to appease the football gods. Apparently the canned eels barely did the trick. We need all the luck in the world to get by this week without a loss.

I am pretty sure kiffin is going to sue us cause our turf was too tough for his kicker to kick on or something so they can get a W for last week.

36-0
