Question for Bama fans

When another program does something that, in my opinion, will better that program, I applaud their efforts.

When another program does something disastrous, I laugh. I’m laughing at Tennessee right now.

The difference between this and people irl is that if a colleague/friend/family member does something to better themselves, I will still celebrate their achievements. Should they fail, however, I try to empower and motivate them to try and do better next time.

In short: when it comes to football, I’ll gladly acknowledge your accomplishments and criticize your mistakes.

I find e majortbof Bama fans here are pretty objective plus the first five years of this run were more fun when we were beating the crap out of good LSU and Florida teams rather than what the sec has become. I like the changes being made.

Are feeling unthreatened by someone or something and/or feeling the need to trick it somehow the only conditions under which you will give a compliment?

I always try to remain objective when speaking. It enhances my credibility, perhaps. When someone is rambling on with hatred, their opinion becomes pretty much useless.

I can have cordial conversations with Auburn fans in real life easily, and even told a few they outplayed us big time in the Iron Bowl. There have been a few over the years though incapable of speaking to me the same way concerning Alabama. Same thing back in 09 with Florida. Florida fans hated Alabama at that time. I told a few I pulled for Florida in 08 against Oklahoma even though they crushed our dreams, but they were pulling hard for Texas in 09.
