Only about 50% of Bama fans were Bama fans during those years.

We certainly missed the years in which Franchione wasn't our coach from 2003-2007.

Those were the years where you could tell a true Bama fan. We were pretty good at times, but not that good. We were pretty bad at times, but not that bad. My close Bama friends had a saying that we would always tell each other after all those losses: "Roll Tide Anyway". We knew we all loved Alabama for the same reason and it came from somewhere deep inside. The sidewalkers and the bandwaggoners all went to root for other teams, and that was good.

I do remember getting very excited about things that seem mundane now. When we got Andre Smith, someone that lived 45 minutes from campus, I remember thinking how lucky we were to get him. Now, that kind of thing is expected.

Also, I was younger with hair then, so I had that going for me.

mw, you're one of the 'better' Bammer posters here.

You know good and well it was the truth.

I live in a tri-state area. TN/GA/AL. We call them 'three-hatters'. They have a Tn, a UA, and a UGA hat in the closet. Whoever is winning, they have the hat.

Same with a lot "Bama" fans. They have an AU and UA hat. They wear the winner.

I'd say 50% is a bit high though, at least for in-staters. A good bit of bandwagoners are out of state.

It is an absolute fluke that Saban is even at Alabama.
If the Dolphins sign Brees in '06, Saban may have lasted another year or more in Miami, and then he would have to had to take any college job open.

Classy how he announced he was taking the Miami job ON Christmas Day, after minutes earlier telling local BR and NO news media 'love those Tigers!'

Also it was extremely classy of him to repeatedly tell the media ad nauseum - to the point of anger
"No, I will not be the head coach at Alabama, I don't know how many times I have to tell you, and I'm really getting tired of it." then.....
turn around and announce over the Dolphins adminsitrative building's loud speakers, that he was quitting.

Good Grief MetryTyger!! This is a thread about how not being on top can still be fulfilling and you spew your hatred all up in this thing. Give it a rest.
