Filed under: Auburn, All That and a Bag of Mail
You know the masses recognize the absurdity of the NCAA's decision -- and the SEC's acquiescence to that decision -- when eBay parodies of NCAA bylaws begin. Yesterday I brought y'all the shadow Cam Newton for sale on eBay. Today I bring you the unborn fetus, a future five-star prospect, mind you, that a father is auctioning off a verbal commitment to the highest collegiate bidder. What are the requirements?"I am Selling my Sons verbal commitment to the college of your choice! Payment Must Be Hidden With No Evidence Also My Son Must never know of this payment. Happy Bidding!"
Anyway, the Cam Newton mess is best summed up by this fact: The person who played "Take the Money and Run" before the Alabama-Auburn game was fired. Fired for his song selection! Yet the father who solicited $180,000 for his son to play SEC football and would have literally taken the money and run if it was given to them gets no significant punishment. And his son is ineligible for a day. It's come to this in the NCAA and the SEC. The person who played a song in the stadium was dealt with in a harsher manner than the person who cheated.
You can't even make this stuff up if you try. So our beaver pelt trader of the week is Jason Adlman, the 2008 Alabama grad who received a stiffer punishment for his song selection than anyone did for trying to sell a player.
On to All That and a Bag of Mail.
