I'm a huge fan of both the football and basketball programs at Alabama.

I don't understand why so many people hate the sport of basketball or just simply don't care.

I support my team and watch every game I can with damn near the same level of intensity of a football game.

Hopefully the Tide can back up their preseason ranking this year and help the SEC perform well in the Big Dance.

I do support LSU basketball when they're good but the importance of them being good is so far below football and baseball that I just accept it when they suck.

Totally agree. It's like these types of fans don't have the mental capacity or IQ to follow more than 1 sport. I'm as big an Alabama football fan as any other on this board. The fact that I care about Alabama basketball (and college basketball in general) doesn't make me any less of a college football fan.

When I think of the mentality of the rammer jammers of the Alabama fanbase, I think of the rednecks at Alabama's fan day that would AND ACTUALLY DO endanger their newborn child for Saban's autograph. The same people that swell with pride over the Roll Tide/War Eagle documentary. It's pathetic yet these mouth breathers don't have enough sense to know that people are laughing at their pathetic obsession with Alabama football and Alabama football only. These same fans couldn't begin to tell you where Coleman Coliseum is. If they do somehow get lucky and find the arena they MAY show up in years we win the Iron Bowl for halftime of the Auburn game when the football team receives the ODK Trophy.

P.S. Not calling you out personally rammer jammer. I'm just calling out the mentality of your first post.
