re: Alabama lives in the big house and the rest of the SEC are just share croppers.

In essence you can take the McDonald's drive-through window guy/girl and either would win 10 games at Harvey Updyke University (ie Mike Dubose and even Bill Curry won a SEC championship at HUU). Plus no other fan base has the likes of the infamous Harvey Updyke, Jim Dog, Michelle Pritchett, John Phillips or Brian Downing. Bama zealots all and they or Bama football contribute nothing to the livability of Alabama or the world!

It certainly doesn't hold a candle to having Clemson drag their nutsack over your double chin.

What's it like (Dabo's nutsack) on the palate, by the way?

Some Gumps say it's sweet while also carrying a delightful, tangy hint of antique leather; followed by the delicate aroma of sun kissed summer wildflowers and finishing with just a hint of fruity spice.

I just didn't know if you agreed with those guys, or if you were in the group who took it in the arse like the Gumpettes did.

Anyway,

Bama zealots like you should never complain about Auburn with their stomachs full. Auburn University and its graduates do a great job of feeding, healing, clothing and housing people all over the world. UAT is a one-trick pony with football being its raison d'etre. ... UAT football has harmed the state's progress in so many ways. You and Harvey Updyke et al are prime examples. Stop salivating over some high school quarterback considering UAT and please do something productive with your life. Get a job, volunteeer, travel just care about something worthwhile (please do not poison any trees) with the time you have left.

"Arrangements typically left a third of the crop to the sharecropper. By the early 1930s, there were 5.5 million white tenants, sharecroppers, and mixed cropping/laborers in the United States; and 3 million blacks. In Tennessee, whites made up two thirds or more of the sharecroppers."

Yes, in Tennessee. Ya know the Upper South state where an entire region tried to secede from the secession? That state that is represented in the SEC by a school that was UNIONIST as opposed to everyone else?

Tennessee is the odd one -- the exception to the rule not the rule.

The house they bought with the scratch off after they fired Shula. Once Saban retires the PTB will have them back where they where during the Dubose-Fran-Price-Shula years. I use to think only the younger Bammers didn’t know history.

Finally! Some good advice from butt hurt corner. I took your advice when I was 14 and went to work. And never stopped. Hell I had an on post vending machine route five hours a day along with protecting your mom and dad. So that their DNA could flow to a guy with has nothing better to do with his working hours other than waste time fantasizing on an inane sports board. I am on here too but I've frankly got the time for it.

And thanks for asking about my travels. My wife just drove us from Ga to Ca. She sees better than I since she is 13 years my junior. I've been waiting to talk about my/our trip. We stopped in Jackson @ the Bass World. Jefferson, Texas. Ft Worth @ The Stock Yards. Austin at Stubbs BBQ. With a flood in Rockdale. Fredricksburg to see some old Houston friends who retired there. With a side trip to Luckenbach where they were having a biker's weekend. Big Bend national park. White Sands NM. Best damn Mexican restaurant in existence @ Alb. NM. Grand Canyon National Park. And spend the grand finale evening in Palm Springs @ Arnold Palmer's restaurant before spending a glorious week with my daughter and 9 month old grand son. She overcame her Bama education with an Executive position working from home for a hospital admin corp. We wanted to be there to greet my SIL home from deployment in the Persian Gulf protecting your sorry butt on the John C Stennis. Our next big road adventure is in the fall. We're traveling to Lincoln Neb. Where my SIL, an ex-player for the Huskers, will be doing a pre-game flyover for the OSU-Nebraska game as part of the Navy flight team. And BTW I am bragging like hell on my SIL and hope like the dickens my grand son grows up to be 50% like him.

But times have changed. In the past desperate times called for desperate measures, which was a lot easier to get away with. That is why I predict the post Saban era will not to be as smooth as Bama fans think. The fans will not accept the old days, but the rest of CF will have a big say. I think Dabo knows that.

I looked it up stassen.com and 2000-2006 was the worst winning pct (.428%) for 7 or more years for Alabama since 1951-1957, which was .427%. That included the infamous Ears Whitworth years. I didn't go before 1925, but there was no other 7 year span since then as bad as those years.

So 2000-2006 were the worst Alabama football years in my lifetime, and probably the lifetime of nearly every poster on this board.

In other words, if you're expecting Alabama to win only 42% of its games in your lifetime, it's a really good bet that you're going to be sadly disappointed.

In fact, I bet Auburn has had a worse 7 year span since 1925. Want to do a ban bet?

edit: Come to think of it, that .428% from 2000-2006 includes vacated wins due to the the players not returning textbooks. Oh well. I'll leave it.

I'll still do the ban bet with you that Auburn has had a worse 7 year span since 1925.
