If we're going to go with a musician, why not someone from Alabama like Isbell or Patterson Hood?
Or how about someone that's actually good?

Well it doesn't get much better than Isbell and Hood, so yes, they are actually good. Sorry your taste in music sucks.

Isbell would have been great. I think Church is from NC.

John Popper was in Birmingham on Wednesday. I don't think he knows anything about college football, but at least he's talented.

Never understood why Baumhower hasn't made an appearance. Owns what? 3 restaurants in Tuscaloosa? Played at Alabama and in the NFL with the Dolphins. Guy has business experience and football. Knows his shite about business growth, running a business, and football. Huge local supporter too. Absolutely ludicrous to keep picking random arse gameday guest for us. Hell I had a feeling Sarah Patterson would be the guest.

Jason Isbell has one of the best albums put out in the last 5 years. I am sorry that your taste in music sucks. Isbell and Patterson Hood are excellent musicians. Isbell is a Bama fan and he would be a great pick.

Maybe we will get GA/FL Line and you will be happy.

I actually posted on his FB a couple of days ago asking if he was going to be the guest picker. He never responded. That tells me it's him and he's keeping it quiet.

He has businesses in other towns too.
Bob has to be careful not to tick off people from fan bases that might make or break his business.
I don't blame him for not being a picker.

Can't be that hard to avoid controversy.

"Well Bob, you own a good bit of businesses here in Tuscaloosa. Tell us about that"

"Yeah, I've always loved it here, its a great college town, along with the several other cities I do business in. We've had great success in all of your respective cities and we're still looking to expand"

Markets his business and he steers clear of any debacle. Anything would be better than some random arse country singer who probably doesn't know shite about football.
