I’ll watch a game Bama is involved in but that’s pretty much it. I’ve noticed the last couple years that I’m not anywhere close to invested in it as I was. ...

re: Does anybody really care about the minor sports?

No. Football and basketball yes. I seriously couldn't tell you one player on Bama's baseball, softball, womens basketball, golf, swimming, track, pickeball, bowling, shuffleboard, horseshoes, shite slinging or equestrian. I'm not the only one. none of these sports are televised with regular TV c...

re: Pete Thamel: Scholarship limits for baseball likely eliminated

Interesting topic. I was listening more on the local radio today and basically their take was schools will focus on what they have a better chance at winning and drop sports they aren't successful in. Title 9 in still in effect so for example Bama would drop baseball, men's tennis, mens swmming a...

[quote]With all these HUNH spread teams on the loose, it's still good to see the smashmouth effect in full force and winning games.[/quote]
Agreed. The same things that won before still win (see Mich and UGA). The field is still 100 yds long and a first down requires 10 yards. The wishbone, v...

“We've been playing handcuffed the entire time.”
Anybody that couldn’t understand this was a fool or ignorant. It’s why interest in the state of Alabama in baseball went to nothing. Bama and auburn were playing in the toughest conference in America against 35 full roster scholarships with guys ...
re: Finally getting power back up in central alabama
Posted by TouchdownTony on 5/27/24 at 12:52 pm
Shelby county. We had like 18K without power a couple hours ago. My wife's folks who are 7 miles away said they had a flicker but didn't lose it. Down the street a large bradford pear fell on a house. I guess it was concentrated but it was super intense here....

Damn...really? That sux. I started watching college basketball while he was at UCLA. To say he was dominant is one huge understatement. No college center ever literally owned the floor like the big redhead. The personality was just a bonus....

The early morning hours were a bitch. Couldn’t even get out of my neighborhood for downed trees. Thing is, when I went to bed there was a 40 percent chance of a “passing shower”...
re: Should committee for 12 team playoff
Posted by TouchdownTony on 5/27/24 at 10:51 am
No, they should be objective and rank teams. If it’s a rematch, so be it. No manipulation. The best team will win. Rematches are as overrated as crowd noise. Weather and traveling cross country on quick turnarounds are much more of a factor. ...

Dude, LSU played great baseball all week. I didn't watch any of it but it seemed like they came from behind in every game they played from what i read. Take your youngsters to see them to see how you keep playing until the final out and never give up. Sports teaches us many lessons and this shoul...
re: Tennessee softball choking to a bad Alabama team.
Posted by TouchdownTony on 5/26/24 at 7:53 pm
It's time for Murphy to do something of Importance. Bama has massively underachieved the last few years. Bama needs to win something of note and this would certainly qualify. Beating UT makes it that much sweeter....

I've begun to feel like this the last week or so. I'm like you about baseball. It's not just that Bama sux at baseball. In my life I've been to 2 Bama baseball games and I got in free both times because it was like the 5th inning. I don't watch MLB either. Baseball is just too...whatever. Bori...

Dude, if it wasn’t for Bama your school wouldn’t be reaping the financial windfalls they are seeing. Bama got beat by the best team in the country in football and basketball and that’s sports. We can deal with it, surely you can.
Go cry about losing somewhere else and blame your coaches and p...

I’ve always said the 2 biggest wins in sabans time were two national title games. Texas and notre dame. We had been shite against those 2 on the big stage. It wasn’t like they were beating some crap Bama teams either. They were beating some of the best teams in Bamas history. To get those 2 mon...
