This guy apparently named his kids "Bear" and "Crimson". If true, that's awesome.
Used to be, kids were made to take a timeout when they acted up, or maybe even a spanking. But now, parents have other options, like selling their treasured toys on eBay as punishment.
One mom, fed up with her boys' fancy spinning tops and how they wrecked her bathtub, decided to gather the offending tops — the popular Japanese manga Beyblade toy — and put them on eBay. She even posted a picture of her sons, one clearly in tears, while the younger one has a mug shot look, resigned to his fate, as he holds up the zip lock bag of Beyblades to present to the buying public.
She put the picture and the toys on the auction site, attracting the attention of 4Chan, a community known for galvanizing quickly around a common cause. They ganged up on the hapless mom, daney21. The opening bid for the 8 toys was $69. With 4Chan in the mix, the bids soon rose to over $9,000, and finally to $999,999 before the auction was closed, most likely on daney21's request. She sent a message to one of the 4Chan bidders that shows her frustration and perhaps realization that she was being pursued by forces way beyond her comprehension: "Do you plan to pay over $9000.00 for the beyblades or is this a joke to you because this has been a problem all day and I am going to report to ebay."
A search for daney21 or her eBay Beyblades entry, which was posted in early February, came back with zero results.
An Alabama fan confesses on Paul Finebaum to having poisoned the oak trees at Toomer's Corner on Auburn University's campus. The dosage was more than 60 times what is needed to kill a tree. Their chance of survival is almost zero.

Maybe just as a temporary solution, the SEC can move the Barn over to the East in exchange for like Tennessee or something and Bama and Barn can rotate into each others schedules like the rest of the opposite division games.However, it's the lunatics that every fan base has that always get the most attention when they cross the line... the rivalry between Alabama and Auburn was suspended for 40 years because it got out of hand..
This guy has kids who had to be pulled out of school because they were getting death threats... Now they have to live with what their lunatic father did despite not having anything to do with it... they'll have to leave the state now. No question about it...
A lot of fans on both sides of this rivalry feel like it would be best if they just quit playing each other because the hatred between the fanbases is too intense. I don't agree with that at all...

Aaaand it's gone.
