You need to ease up. You're going too hard.

That you can see in replays officials spotting a ball 3 to 4 yards from where an Alabama player is down...


3 to 4 yards?



Go ahead and admit it: you've never even watched a fricking game, have you?

I also find it interesting that Alabama sucked before 2008


I find it interesting that you're so fricking stupid that you didn't even know that Southern Company owns Alabama Power.

Don't mean to get in the way of a decent troll, but just so I can follow this, you're saying that Alabama Power also owns the TVA, a government operated agency?

Again, I don't know if it's true, I was told by people who live in Alabama. When I started just googling to see if this was a topic or if any articles had been written about this, a lot of connections started to add up.

The SEC offices are located in Birmingham within walking distance of Alabama's power headquarters. (This can be verified by Google maps) Also I found articles of residence of Alabama complaining about higher than normal power bills with no explanations.

As of page 3 nobody has mentioned that they have heard anything about this, so apparently this is not as wide known or being discussed among people in Alabama.

Or maybe Bama fans know about it and aren't saying anything?

I already mentioned that, Bama fans would happily pay higher power bills to funnel money to win championships, I don't think this is even arguable.

This is some next-level, Glenn-Beck, free-association style lunacy.

But, I'll play along. Cui bono? Why the hell would Alabama Power do that? Why would the stockholders allow that? How could do they do that for years and not get in trouble with the Securities and Exchange Commission?

Because they're all in on it. The REC's reach is without limit.

This is amazing

Even better, apparently Georgia Power, Mississippi Power, AGL, etc are all helping subsidize Alabama football through Southern Company through Alabama Power.

We really do control the world.

How would residence of a state stop this anyway?


I don't think there is much a bunch of houses could do.

Even if they did Alabama Power would probably just cut off their electricity to stop the revolt.

I love how all rival fans basically admit Alabama is more powerful and elite than they are. It's beautiful.

Think about it, lil ole Alabama controlling the New York Times, FBI, ESPN, most of the state and federal government, etc. That's fvckin impressive.
