This entire episode is sad.
It's sickening this guy did what he did and the escalation with the threats on his family are horrible.

However, if you are stupid and do stupid things, you have to consider what the reaction will be to not only yourself but your family. He doesn't seem to be a master criminal and should have realized that is was likely he would get caught. With his actions, he has pulled his family into it. He should have understood the risks.

SO, you're suggesting that threatening innocent children and family members related to a single nutcase is the MINIMUM retaliation they should expect?

Am I right to conclude then, that you would have no objection to someone actually following through on those threats?

Defaced? With a taped on jersey and a magnet/sticker? That was easy to clean up. Now if someone had painted the jersey on or something I could see calling that "defaced".

planted the grass

Planting grass = killing trees?

Is there any proof of this at all besides it beign reported on message boards? Has anyone actually seen a police report or anything to give this report validity?

At some point, we'll be forced to start killing our living legends.

Jesse Williams will be assigned to guard Joe Namath...with a boomerang.

Unless Jesse can use that boomerang to smash a bottle of Jack Daniels from their hands we won't need any help getting rid of joe willie or the snake.

If all of you Barners have this much trouble over someone killing trees, maybe you should not take any more money from Yella Fella.

Sounds good to me. That family has probably contributed 0 to society anyway.

It's not that we hate trees being killed. This is one of our biggest traditions. If you cant see the difference between this tree and some random pine on the side of 85, you're an idiot.

It's not the fricking tree. It's the fact that they are part of a tradition that goes back to before you were born. There are AU alums and fans that rolled those trees in the 60's. There would be the same reaction if it was something else that was a part of Auburn, and was taken away.

Yeah, planted pines = 130+ year old landmark tree.

Death threats? Thats not a reaction or a repercussion of what that idiot did. Its just dumbasses showing that they are no better than him and probably worse. Threats against kids? Really?

Well heres my stance on the tree thing as of now........TO all the barners who are truly hurt and offended in a rational way then im sorry that shite happened and I applaud your rationality and maturity, and i know yall are in the majority.

BUT to the jackasses who condone death threats and harm to him or his family........FRICK YOUR TREES AND GO EAT A DICK The ones in this category should really consider suicide because you are a waste of oxygen. Like i said in an earlier post. If somebody from this mans family shoots somebody, its gonna be completly justified.

"Fanhood" is a window to ones soul in the sense you can see how a person truly lives their life by how they react as a human being to the good and the bad things that a program endures.

But FOR REAL....im sure some of you losers who condone this shite on this board and anywhere else probably are already miserable seeing how you invest so much emotion into something like this instead of things like your family and friends and overall well being of those around you. You know, real world shite? Please KILL YO SELF

What about the Bama fans posting here who act like this is no big deal, or "they started it first" and live to post stupid stuff about 'the Barn' ?


There's alot of Lsu fans been doing the same. Every base has em. And there's only so many times you can say it sux that it happened before it comes off as insincere.

Not surprised by this news..

What does surprise me is why did Updyke tell on himself on Finebaum? I'd like to thank him for his stupidity though. He made the investigation a no brainer, sparing our tax dollars. Thanks Harvey!
