Rafa reminds me of Buster from arrested development. That's all I have to add

Can we go ahead and start the "Roman Fired Rafa Today" thread? It shouldn't be too long.

In this case I don't think it was money. I think he was just going crazy not being involved in the business anymore and not being able to coach anyone.

As an Auburn and Chelsea fan I am about ready to give up on sports.

My two favorite teams are going to be managed by Rafa Benitez and Gene Chizik or Bobby Petrino. Meanwhile I'm sure Man Utd will win the Prem League, Barcelona will win the CL, and bama will win the national title. I am in the 7th circle of sports fan hell.

Petrino won't be the next coach at AU. I'd almost make a permaban bet over it.

You're only in the 6th circle.

If we keep Chizik they'll have to create an 8th, just for me.

Excuse me, sir. Snap out of it! You have the hopes of humanity riding with you into battle this Saturday. Auburn needs you more than ever now.

Auburn needs us all more than ever.

This isn't about probabilities, its about principles.
