Reported on Rivals.com about 1:30 P.M. on Monday, November 30, 2010.
The University of Alabama has fired an employee who played songs aimed at Auburn quarterback Cam Newton before the Iron Bowl.
University spokeswoman Debbie Lane said Monday that the part-time staffer was fired for the unauthorized songs. "Take the Money and Run" and "Son of a Preacher Man" were played while Newton and the Tigers warmed up.
The Tuscaloosa News first reported the firing.
I don't really care whether Cam Newton's dad coerced anyone to get dollars for his son, as BCS football is about as corrupt as any popular sport in this country can be. If nothing else, this was a clever and funny stunt, but obviously not to the Lords of the SEC.
Has anyone noticed that big time NCAA football is starting to look more and more like La Cosa Nostra?
