I'll post out the blacked out version for those who don't want to see the injury

Wow...WT17 was the editor thinking? I can see he/she and the author getting canned for that one. Idiots.

Out of line in my opinion, you don't celebrate a kid getting hurt.

"It was a game defining play & a great shot of it by @fototodd. Treadwell suffered an injury, nothing more."

Truly a horrible injury, and picture to run. Amazing how AU pulls the crap they do, and continue to get all the lucky breaks.

I have come to the conclusion that Yella Wood did in fact go to the Crossroads and make the deal.

Even though I consider myself intelligent and logical, it is the only possible explanation I can offer for the continued chain of events which surround the Auburn football team and the outcome of their games.

If there IS a program out there that's just plumb shittier in all ways than Auburn, it's Ole Miss. At least within our small circle of peers. I mean, Oregon and Phil Knight might be worse but shit we don't ever come across them. Alabama is pretty damn bad too, they f*ck around behind the scenes more than any other. I still say they were behind Cam and Johnny Manziel (anyone who's a threat to their highness), while pinning it on others.

Sorry, I feel no sadness for Ole Miss. Is this Auburn paper classless? Sure, but all newspapers are nowadays.

Auburn people are ass holes. Bottom line.

So tasteless but in their minds they probably think they did a good deed by changing the original headline of "lucky break". We've said it on here many times before but professional journalism is just about dead.

I spoke to several of my buddies in the Montgomery, AL area. They all had the same reply. "It was probably the biggest play of the game, it's not like they were saying we hurt him to win."
Yes, they are Auburn alums.

Its just unfortunate that a game saving play, also has a season ending injury for the opponent..

I know one game they didn't get a lucky break.

How is that any different than what the Daily Journal ran today? You can't see his leg but his face in agony is to me just as bad.
