Auburn, Cam Newton, and Churlish Fans

-- hijacking my own blog --

So the NCAA says there is not "sufficient evidence" that Cam Newton broke any rules, which is bureacrease for, "we know it happened but we can't prove it."  But it's clear his dad shopped the quarterback around the SEC, the NCAA says.  When this was first reported, Auburn fans went nuts, blaming evil conspiratorial journalists for making it all up.  I'm an Auburn fan (after Georgia), but I was deeply disappointed in the childish and churlish nature of AU fans in this episode since -- HELLO!!! -- the journalists were right.  It actually happened, says the NCAA. 

And so, below, the email from the sports journalists to Auburn fans:

Dear Auburn:
    Apology accepted.  And good luck on Saturday.

Signed,

    Journalism
