Sounds like all the players who were injured in the Saturday's game should practice today with exception of D. Harris who probably will be back tomorrow. D. Brown should be okay to go. Sounds like we will get most of players back for today.

This would be hilarious, if it weren't for the fact that there have been threads on ITAT they think we use the tent to administer PED drugs... :D
I imagine the conspiracy theorists on the Plains believe it went like this:
Coach Saban: "Darn it. Tua threw an incomplete pass! Get him into the tent and give him an injection of PEDs."

Yeah. Right ...

Remember the barn slogan use to be "All In." Well now it should be "All Aboard." They are about to ride the Gus Train completely off the rails.

its always steroids or paying the refs or a league conspiracy. its never that theres 20 first day draft picks on the field every game.
Oh, they recognize that. They just know that we pay all of them. I'm beginning to see complaints on their boards about the "phantom PI calls" to come. The problem is that you have an entire fan base which doesn't understand the rule on pass interference. I happened to watch a play on one of their games with one of the most egregious defensive PI fouls I've seen in a long time. The DB was out of phase and knocked the receiver down from behind. When the flag came out, JHS erupted in boos. There were long threads on their boards the next week to the effect that their DB had a right to the ball and was just going for the ball. They thought he had a right to knock the receiver out of the way and to the ground. No wonder they feel that the world in general and refs in particular have it in for them. It must be in the AU creed somewhere. At any rate, if they can get close enough to tackle our receivers, they will swap the 15 yards for a TD every time. That needs to be changed to a spot foul all over field. That will stop it...

Yeah. Right ...
They also think we use the tent for injected pain killers. Funny, after we invented the tent, all the other teams, including AU, had to have their own... :D

What is it you do to cause your images to show twice on TapaTalk? Just curious.
He uploads the pictures from his computer. TapaTalk reads images like Twitter posts, which means you see it twice because of the picture/tweet and then the link to the picture/tweet.

Hope I explained that well enough.

OK. But I don't see that when others post images from a computer. On some forums, those posted as attachments from a computer show as broken. Thanks, I was just curious.

Only admin have access to the server to host images locally. It happens here because I embed the image so it shows up without clicking on it, but Tapatalk also automatically displays the link in the message.

As you can see in the screen shot below - Tidefans is not only displaying the image, but the attachment link as well, so on Tapatalk it shows the image twice:

True. We had a brief discussion earlier about the drainage, or lack thereof, of the field. IIRC, when the study was done to remedy the underground aquifer, which causes it, it would have meant millions of dollars in destruction of some of the buildings around the stadium to relocate it, plus monstrous excavation costs and loss of the use of the stadium for an extended period of time. So, it's a case of "it is what it is," and we're stuck with it...
I was thinking we used to have pumps that pulled out the water from the surface and drained int. The field looked terrible Sat.
