That aside, I don't think Alabama had 4 national title winning coaches before Bryant. I think it was only Wade and Thomas, though they did win 4 titles between the two of them. 1925,26,30,34.

edit to say no, I don't count 1941

I agree about the '41 title, but it evened out, and then some, when Alabama was robbed in '66 ('65 undefeated champs and undefeated in '66 while ND and Mich. St. were ranked above them even after they tied each other).

"cold ground was my bed last night

You're wrong. But so am I. They had 3 natty winners before Bryant and 6 statues outside BD for all the title winners. I don't count '41 either but I don't count titles anyway, just the amazing number of great coaches we have been blessed with but the program makes coaches too. Hell DuBose won the SEC by beating Spurrier twice in one season, Curry came within a couple points or so playing for a natty and even Shula won 10 when we were on horrible probation. Hell of a run.

Are you in the military? If so thank you my good man. Had lunch with my old boss who is in his 80's and he told me they needed to send guys like he and I to fight since we have nothing to lose and would enjoy door gun duty. Plus we are now liabilities and young guys have all their lives in front of them.

Got a disc with Lightning's Mojo Hand, Short Haired Woman and others at Jimmy Rodgers museum in Meridian two weeks ago. Lordy, that brings back old days. Picked up one of the old singing brakeman too. Blue Yodel number 7 I believe and others..

This is an example of someone who is too deeply invested in their fandom.


No one takes you as seriously as you take yourself.

Which is fairly normal I'd guess Socrates. Or would Plato fit better. But yeah I take myself pretty seriously so advice from a guy like you who speaks for everyone is certainly a plus. Shoot me a phone number I need some consensus help getting my watermelons to fruit. Plenty of blooms but not a lot of fruiting. Thanks a million.

WTF did I just waste 5 minutes of my life reading? You may want to have the doc check out your head next time you visit. Your ticker might be working good, but your brain is a little suspect.

Stay tuned for number THREE. It'll be bigger, better and more on the mark than the last two. But that's what I do.

What did the house look like during the Dubose, Fran, Price and Shula years? I guess Bama is just renting under Saban.

So is it that I don't write your reading or you don't read my writing?

"OLD" is a bad way to go through your golden years? I have certainly inspired and brought out a different element here.

Taking exception to 'OLD' and not 'DRUNK' speaks volumes.

Lucky for Bama and Saban the banks (committee) allows them to miss a payment or two (mulligans),or it it would be a different narrative.
