Tigahs on the ground ~ The Fightin' Leslies are now in B'ham ~
Posted by TomTide on 11/6/15 at 4:12 pm
Been an enthusiastic Bama fan for more than 50 years, and the many great battles between LSU & the Crimson Tide have always been amongst my favorites.
And tomorrow should be no exception. LSU has another physically impressive team this season & it's no secret that your main RB can take it to the ...

Not that it matters, but I'm gonna be a BIG Cajun fan this weekend

Greeting to one & all (except the Boogs, of course) ~
Even though I check out this very good SEC fan website forum almost every day during the CFB season, I rarely post anything. But since there's gonna be a really important game down in Baton Rouge on Saturday afternoon, I feel a strange compuls...

Hahaha!
Believe it not, there were LOTS of us nasty ol' bammer fans cheering for Vandy tonight.
VERY well done, indeed. That Virginny team was really good & it took a determined effort to FINALLY secure a BIG NC for the Vanderbilt baseball team
ENJOY this one. Twas quite an impressive perfo...

Mr. Hugo ~ THANKS!
I thought I had done that very thing when trying to post some pics and/or vid clips, but I obviously must have done something incorrectly.
So, I shall use the info supplied in your reply when I wanna accomplish that simple task in the future.

A simple question about embedded links ~

Greetings & Happy New Year to ALL.
First, I wanna thank all the many folks who are associated with developing & managing the excellent TigerDroppings website for creating one of the very BEST fan/info boards that is currently available. The design of your site is really well done & is a model for...

Gotta tip my Crimson Hat to this guy. In the midst of a hair-pulling coaching search, some really good humor 'heps to lessen the anxiety a bit.
Hope this YouTube thang embeds OK :

OK, LSU, I wanna see a spicy, Cajun-style WHOOP-AZZ on Saturday!

Greetings to all. The rest of you wil have to pardon us for a bit while we nasty ol' "bammers" have a word or two with LSU fans about a certain exceedingly UGLY team down in Southwest Jawja.
Tigahs, this season is my 52nd "official" campaign as an enthusiastic Bama fan. And during this time, I ha...

Yeah, it really makes me SICK.
BTW, I have sent a note to the mods requesting that this post be moved to a more appropriate location.
My mistake for posting it here....

Bizarre/Tragic News concerning a famous Penn State assistant ~
Posted by TomTide on 11/4/11 at 5:39 pm
Many of you will certainly recognize the name of this long-time Penn State assistant who was also famous for his work with disadvantaged youngsters of various ages.
I'd certainly hate to think that this awful story eventually shatters the lives of lotsa folks. Unfortunately, considering the work ...
re: Great, GREAT article on Les Miles and his life and family and balancing his job
Posted by TomTide on 11/3/11 at 5:51 pm
That is an incredibly interesting & touching article that really does a lot to help explain how CLM has his own unique style & formula for success within the VERY high-pressure world of top-flight SEC football.
No doubt, far too many head football coaches have literally "lost their families" & se...
How 'bout some great historical stories this week???
Posted by TomTide on 10/31/11 at 12:12 am
Greetings to all.
Rather than hyperventilate about all of the ultra-hype that the national mediots will be spewing out at everyone this week, I thought it would be a lot more fun to read some good personal stories from those of you who are lifelong fans of your favorite college/SEC team & have be...
re: 2005 LSU/Bama pre-game flyover...will it be topped this year?
Posted by TomTide on 10/24/11 at 8:27 pm
Hehehe! That was definitely a goodie.
The pilot who flew that big tanker posts on the TiderInsider subscriber web board. He said that they got in a tad of trouble that day because that flyover was so incredibly low. As a result, I doubt that we'll see another one that comes as close as that one (...
re: Ole Miss and Auburn are likely also coming to Tuscaloosa on Nov 5th
Posted by TomTide on 10/24/11 at 10:39 am
That's actually a very interesting idea.
Since the HUGE Bama/LSU battle is now gonna be a night game and the ESPN Gameday crew is also gonna be on Bama's campus, it would actually be great to see a ton of OM & Aubie fans joining in on the fun. And with some creative signs appropriate for the ESPN...

Hehehe. As the inimitable Lee Corso would say, "Not so fast, my friend!"
Seems that your "analysis" was just a tad incomplete :

The Tide absolutely CRUSHED the highly favored Miami Thugs and young Mr. Barker passed for only 18 yards & had TWO interceptions...
Bama's chartered flight is gettin' close to its Flarduh destination ~
Posted by TomTide on 9/30/11 at 4:51 pm
Seems that the Bama flight will be landing at Ocala airport in about 5 minutes or so. Ocala is only a little bit South of Gainesville, so one assumes that their lodging will be pretty close by.
This should be *quite* an interesting battle between Bama & Flarduh. The Gators have a LOT of speed & a...
Wonder what Danny Sheridan sees in MState vs. LSU???
Posted by TomTide on 9/15/11 at 1:05 pm
Greetings.
When listening to Danny Sheridan on the Feenbum radio show this week, I was very surprised to hear him pick the Bullies over LSU. And it wasn't just a "point spread" pick either; he said that he thinks that MState will actually win the game.
Considering the amazing amount of footbal...
re: Anybody familiar with that Adam Wins pro betting guy???
Posted by TomTide on 9/10/11 at 11:05 am
Thanks for the replies, guys.
Although I do expect the Tide to roll, it's VERY clear that the PSU players & fans really wanna pull off the big upset. And if they can rattle our young QB early in the game & possibly force some turnovers, it could make for a very tough battle today.
Bama's recei...
Anybody familiar with that Adam Wins pro betting guy???
Posted by TomTide on 9/10/11 at 10:44 am
Greetings to all.
I normally don't pay a lot of attention to all of the Sports Betting folks, but I do occasionally listen to this "Adam Wins" guy who comes on the Feenbum radio show on Fridays during the College Football season.
Anywho, I downloaded his interview from yesterday afternoon, and...
Hi Guys; Just wanted to drop by for a second ~
Posted by TomTide on 1/7/11 at 5:59 pm
Greetings to all.
This season has officially been my 50th as an enthusiastic Bama fan, and, believe it or not, I'm one of those irrational "bammers" who actually likes LSU (well, at least *most* of the time). And whenever you folks are playing the Boogs, there's NO WAY that you're cheering for yo...
