Alabama used to be ridiculed here constantly and now they are running shite on a yearly basis. How redeeming does it feel?

I wasn't here in 2007, but growing up in the Gene Stallings era and expecting to win and then having to endure the Mike Shula era, it feels very redeeming.

Well I wasn't hear back then, but I remember people saying we were the next Vandy of the SEC, even though we'd have a 10 win year like every three seasons. Now we're the fricking Kings of College Football and not going anywhere for a long time.

Full disclosure: I wasn't on the board in '07 but it sucked pretty bad IRL too

Feels so fricking good. I remember when the LSU fans were trying to convince themselves that Saban would have a terrible time recruiting to Bama because of having to split recruits with Auburn and Tubbs.

What a bunch of idiots.

I lurked but didn't register till 2008.

Feels REAL good.

The list I could make about things that were taken as gospel back then that have been proven completely and utterly wrong would be very, very long.

The first thread i started on TD was on the tiger rant a couple of days after Saban was hired. I told em what was up.

While I am only an Alabama fan since 2008 (basically right before I enrolled) I have been a Saints fan my whole life. I understand disappointment. 2009 was amazing.

One of my friends is a die hard FSU fan. He's currently melting down on Facebook about how he hates Alabama fans and how they worry about everyone else but their own team. Pretty funny to watch.

2007 was brutal on here. I'm not going to lie the huge turnaround and the shifting of the flaming from 07 to 09 was something to behold. 09 was glorious on here. But, yeah, it's good to be the king.

I'll never forget, NO HARDWARE.

Great. Having been in college during the Shula years and never beating AU any of those years it feels good to be back on the top. Those years sucked!

We were always running shite. It's just that only the Bama fans knew it back then.

Vindicated.
