This is proof...

….that morons can be found in any fan base…

+1 I feel inclined to think this might be a scam.

Who would put money up for something like, especially this early, with basically a 50/50 chance of failure? This could be one of the morons you speak of, though.

I emailed them already

……..to inform them this was a terrible idea.

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.

Why not?

Not like we don’t already have enough jinxes against us. The SI cover, the Heisman… Let’s just go ahead and put a big ol’ unlucky number 13 on all our cars.

Whats funny

supposedly the creator is an Auburn undergrad in law school at Alabama. Surprised?

Pretty good idea, actually

For a few reasons:

1. The domain isn’t going to be available after the game
2. It takes a while to get the site up, running, and working,
3. It costs almost nothing
4. The potential profit is huge

…and now for being “stupid” a bunch of folks who otherwise wouldn’t have known anything about him, now know where his website is and what he’ll be selling after the game.

I'm wrong all the time.

But you can get custom decals made yourself

The main thing is whether the guy has put much cash into this project already. If he has not then he is not out much if we don’t win the title. He would just keep the domain and wait for our next championship.

Sure, and you can make a pizza yourself, too, but that doesn’t stop pizza joints from making billions a year, right?

I'm wrong all the time.

Minus all you want, it's still good business

(no matter who the guy cheers for)

I'm wrong all the time.

No doubt it is a good business decision...

but I still hate it as a fan…you know, with the karma thing and all. I mean I have had my SI SEC preview Mag (with Saban on the cover) in the same spot on my coffee table all year long. I repremand my kids when one of them moves it out of position. And then this d’bag comes out with this website to try and over throw my good intentions to please karma and luck all year long. It would have been better if he waited to start designing the website and adding the houndstooth and all until after (or at least close to) the game. With that said…
-1.
