So I got an invite today to a lobbying trip in DC that my company helps out with. I started going through my photos of last year to remember all of the reps and such I met with. I stumbled across a picture with Tommy. My team didn’t lobby with him, as I live in Tennessee and hit all of our elected officials. However, on our way out of town, I ran into Tommy at my airline terminal. We were sitting rather close, so I figured I’d ask for a picture and give him a Roll Tide. I did, we bantered back and forth a bit; and he ended up being a super nice guy. When I left, I remember almost being disappointed; I went through middle school and early highschool hating the guy; only to find out he was just another dude, and a nice one at that. I don’t think I’ve ever shared that on here; and with it being the off season, I am curious: do you have any villains that’s you’ve created through sports or anything else that you’ve met, and the turned out pretty decent?

Totally agree, Maxine waters was over there too; I certainly didn’t go out of my way to meet her. She legit looks like a dried raisin in real life.

I wouldn't let Tubberville run the bingo table at a vacation Bible school. I sure wouldn't vote for that turd.

Yup. He’s one of the luckiest coaches in the business of the past two decades. Auburn wouldn’t have been shite without the off field stuff we went through. They certainly wouldn’t have been anywhere close to what they were for several years under him.

If Alabama won the 2003 Iron Bowl Tubs was gone. Then he just coasted.

It started when Fran quit on us before the 2002 game. Alabama shouldn’t have lost to them that year. In 2003, our team had basically quit when we played them in Auburn.

Don’t be sad. I hate him enough for both of us.

I'd get banned from this site if I told you what I'd like to see done to that piece of fricking shite.

Yeah, I can only say how he was to me. He was a super nice guy. Obviously you’d think most would be, but I had a run in with one very prominent person there that was an absolute piece of work. Blatantly a shitty person.

I’d probably be a nice guy too if I was making myself a multimillionaire running Alabama into the ground while living in Florida.
