Hate it for UAB. Love that it bothers you. And the other Aubs.

Do you understand what a fact is?

Crappy, ungrateful attitudes have consequences. UA did UAB and Birmingham a HUGE favor by placing their medical school in downtown Birmingham and created thousands of great jobs. UA has pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into that campus and city and yet all we get in return is bitching and complaining. All that generosity and not only are they ungrateful, they hijack the program and slap their own logo on it and try to break away from the entity that created them in the first place. Sounds like the people in charge got sick of all the complaining and wasted resources by UAB and decided to cut the program. Bad attitudes and poor management have consequences.

But....but...what do facts have to do with anything?

Why are the Bama fans so against UAB? It's not like they were taking anything away from either of the top programs in the state.
Any rational Alabama fan living in the Metropolitan Birmingham area should know what's good for UAB is good for Birmingham.
I'm a bama fan and Birmingham resident and it really pisses me off the way all of this has gone down.

As an outsider I just now looked into the issue.
I went immediately to the University of Alabama System Board of Trustees.
14 of the 17 people listed are University of Alabama graduates. I think like 2 of them total had a degree or some sort of tie to UAB.
That's really all I needed to see.
Sad.

Here's an idea to those who "don't care"... Scroll down to the next thread. Do you go into every thread that does not pique your interest just to announce that you don't care about what that thread is about?

Maybe if you and Yellow fella donated some coin...

It does not have anything to do with the sec. There has been 30 threads this week on them. It's simply just another whine by auburn towards bama.

Hey dude let me clue you in on something. If you can afford something, then you can have it. If you can't, tough shite. No one is giving handouts.

Anyone who knows anything about anything knows this was a shady deal. I don't buy the Rant trolling about what/who caused this. But it's obvious there was a lack of transparency in the process.

Kudos for you for not towing the dishonest bullshite Bama line like the rest of the sheep.
Posted on 12/7/14 at 9:13 pm to Darth_Vader
Yeah, seriously.
3 times as many Bama fans respond to every Uab thread than every other fan base combined.
And it has been a lot more than Aubies discussing it.

Do you need me to send the cops over to your place to free you from the people holding you hostage in this thread? Seriously, if you really don't care about the subject of UAB, get the frick out of here. There's like over a dozen other threads on page one alone.

Incorrect there. Are you one of the three blind mice?

You are an absolute dumbfrick.
That didn't happen, moron, so stop fricking saying it. The BOT placed the medical school under UAB authority a long time ago, and the fricking BOT changed the name in about 2008.
