Just pointing the fact that Bama zealots substitute football "success" for their own failures, faults, foibles and lack of personal esteem or success.I love the state of Alabama however bama football keeps the state from changing. I suggest you and all bama zealots get a job, volunteer, read a book and stop your unhealty and counter-productive fixation on UAT football. Its a big world out there and nothing changes (except an increase in domestic violence) if bama losses a game.

Woodie,
I'm not sure how old you are, or where you're from, but anyone with the slightest degree of time spent in the Southeastern part of America is aware of the passion and commitment to SEC football that we, southerners have.
I'm an old man by most standards, have been retired from the sale of my business for 20 years, own free and clear everything I have and don't want for anything materially. I have a fine family with a daughter doing post-graduate studies at an SEC school, and most importantly, our health seems to be holding up well.
All that said is directed to the statement regarding your generalization of Alabama fans.
In conclusion, I will make a suggestion to you. When it comes to telling other people what to do with their lives,...don't. As the old saying goes, you do you, and I'll do me!
PS-The more you make negative generalizations about large groups of people, the more your bigotry shows....and I got a feeling you've called others by that term...just saying.

I hate to break it to you, man, but Alabama and Auburn fans have that in common. You're doing nothing but self-owning yourself.

Another Bama football apologist. You accuse me of making generalizations but then mention the passion and committment to SEC football by... southerners as if all "southerners" are alike. Belive me all "southerners" are not alike and it is old canard used by bama zealots to conflate that all SEC schools are like bama and thus excuse their own weird conduct. No other SEC school has such a list of shameful bama fanatics as the infamous Harvey Updyke, Connor Bruce Croll, Michelle Pritchett, Darwin Holt, Adrian Laroza Briskey, Shorty Price, John Phillips, Tommy Lewis and Brian Downing... Also please do not tell me what to do, I suggest you take your own advice. As for the bigotry, being associted with school that still alows for all white sororities, well that says it all. Please do not hunt me down or poison my trees.

Lol....this is a thread about an Auburn football season and look at all the fricking bammers posting in it. It's more of them than us. God, they really are obsessed with Auburn. It's kinda scary really. Considering we've had eco-terrorism committed on our campus.

Oh, Brian Downing. The infamous Bammer teabagger. Wonder what happened to him?

First of all, I said negative generalizations, Woodie (work on that reading comprehension!)
Secondly, I get the assumption of college sports zealousness in the South from all the various TV network sports productions (i.e. CBS,NBC,ABC,ESPN, etc.) we see nearly every day...didn't know it was false.
Thirdly, how is a nine person list (1/2 of those I've never heard of) of people gonna encapsulate many millions of Bama fans over time?..really?
Fourthly, I didn't tell you what to do..I suggested (there's that reading comprehension thing again. )
Finally, "It's been seven years since sororities at the University of Alabama were formally desegregated."..get your shite together.
Don't worry about me hunting you down..I prefer to stay as far away from jerks like you as I can, and I sincerely doubt that you own any trees...or anything else much.

Yes indeed it is difficult to get bama zealots to understand something when their whole identity, self-esteem and self-worth depend on them not understanding it. Thanks for proving my point! Stay safe and be sure to eat your fruits and vegetables.

I looked it up, somehow they were able to do a broadcast at BDS and sold 47000+ tickets.


Yep, I was there in orange and blue. I was 14 but I remember the atmosphere being very much like the game was actually being played on the field. Kinda wild.

Great response to my comments. As usual, your reply was...nothing. On the way out of the door, be careful not to step on your tail that's tucked between your legs.

Hmmm sort of surprised to see you comment as I felt sure you would celebrating bama's newest football commitment. Didn't you hear that five star QB Bubba Thornsberry from Ox Breath, Mississippi committed to the tide? I Understand he can do everything with a football except autograph it. Are you riding in today's parade anticipating the 2023 national championship? Anyway I trust that you know you have been had. Hope you will keep replying though as your replies prove my point. Selah
