Yay! The Tide continues to roll – and of course when it is a steam roll over Tennessee, it just don’t get much better (ok, so it does in November; but not by much). You’d think we’d just be able to enjoy a nice, winning season wouldn’t you? Not true when you live in Alabama, especially not when Auburn isn’t enjoying quite the same kind of year!
I don’t think anything has made me laugh so much as hearing things like ‘AL fans coming out of the wood-work’, or ‘where were all you fans 3 years ago’, etc. Oh sorry… I didn’t actually mean funny “ha ha” laugh!! Alabama fans are the most devoted people I know for crying out loud – we have stuck it out through some really tough times! Maybe a few more flags are flying than last year or the year before, but wouldn’t that be true of any team that has worked their way up to a #2 ranking mid-season??
I was asked a couple weeks ago what it feels like to be an Alabama fan right now, my reply was
simple… Normal!! Maybe I should ask where all the non-Alabama fans have been all these years – surely not in this state or you’d know we have 12 National Championships; 21 SEC Championships (25 if you count the 4 we won before the SEC was 'officially' formed) – and the only team to win 5 consecutively; and we might as well add 55 Bowl appearances, with 31 of them wins, to our resume!!So… Alabama fans have always been here, where we belong, faithfully standing behind our team and waiting patiently for the tradition to continue. Why would we go any where? We ended the 2007 season with an all-time record of 774-301-43. Now that is Alabama Football :) And I’ll Just ‘keep’ Sayin’ so … win or loose!!
