My Open Love Letter to Kodi Burns

Dear Kodi,

my name is Justin Robinson. i am a life long (and long suffering) Auburn Tigers fan. i understand that you just finished up Spring Football at Auburn and are currently locked in a battle to be the starting QB for my favorite team next season with some dude from junior college that nobody outside of the state of Kansas has ever heard of, despite the fact that you helped lead Auburn to a victory in their bowl game.

i just wanted you to know that i am fully endorsing you as Auburn's starter for the 2008 season here at my blog A Lifetime Of Defeats. i know you are absolutely thrilled.

Kodi i have spent the last 7 seasons cursing and cheering the names of Jason Campbell and Brandon Cox, the two players formerly holding your spot, and i would love nothing more than to be able to heap my joy and scorn onto your name as well. i have not been as excited about the prospects of an Auburn QB since back when Dameyune Craig was leading our team into battle. Craig was a do everything kind of player that i see you in the same mold of. in Auburn's new spread offense i can imagine you putting up some eyepopping numbers both passing and running the ball. i actually just completed a season of EA Sports' NCAA football on playstation with you as the starting QB and using Troy's spread offense playbook...and well, we'll just say the word Heisman and leave it at that. not to put any pressure on you or anything, but 3000 thousand yards passing and 900 yards rushing with 55 total touchdowns were my final season stats. and belive me, if you can put up those kind of numbers in the pesky real world, well, you might find yourself sleeping on piles of money and women in a few years.

anyways, just wanted you to know you are the guy most Auburn fans i know want to see out there on the field and hopefully you keep outshining the rag armed JC quarterback that Tony Franklin is in love with and coach Tuberville gives you the full time job himself. ok, well good luck and don't get hurt when two-a-days start this summer.

your pal,

justin

p.s.
piles of money dude.
