I wish you could show me the quote where I said "we don't claim bullshite titles and you should be glad we only claim the bullshite ones we do" because you are full of bullshite and apparently don't have the attention span to be able to read an entire post.

I said that Alabama claims the 1941 title that was awarded by Houlgate in addition to the 13 that are recognized by CFDW. At no time did I say that I considered that to be bullshite but rather stated that if you or someone else doesn't agree that you should probably provide an explanation.

Short of that all you are doing is whining and bitching.


Your post basically said "this random database recognizes 18 'Bama titles, but we only claim 14 and you should be glad."

ftr, 1941 is a bullshite title since y'all were 9-2 and lost to Mississippi State and Vanderbilt. How anyone could lose to those teams and claim a national title is beyond hilarious.

I suspect that most Alabama fans hand clap in a similar manner to Les Miles

I can't remember who the guy was, but didn't the writer of some book that started the whole 12 claim, finally admit he was the reason bama started claiming 12 sometime in the 80's?


Here you go. From the al.com archives the story was written in 2010

Someone posted an article here once where that guy gave an interview. I think he said (something along the lines of) "I found these were awarded after the fact, but wanted Alabama to look like the best"

Well you see if you put something into quotes it implies that you are actually quoting something. What you are doing is attempting to paraphrase what I said. So let me paraphrase what you said but I'll do you the courtesy of leaving the bullshite quotes off.

I can't keep myself focused long enough to read those pages that you linked. Don't you have something with more pictures? I don't really have anything of substance to say so here is a cute emoticon. It sure is pretty to look at?

Little birdie sent me this gem...


Here's the thing...if a football playoff were somehow instituted next season, and its wildly successful and popular and in 30 years the championships won under it are the gold standard for "REAL" championships, does that mean that the ones won under the BCS or the older ones awarded by the AP are fake? No.

Bama went through a period where they recognized their poll titles as the end all and beat all of "real" championships. Some guy in the Athletic Department with a thing for history (Like our own LSU poster, I-59) lobbied for them to start recognizing the Championships from the pre-poll, pre-Bryant era. This was during the period where the Bryant Museum was being founded, which showcased the full history of Alabama football.

Its not that the titles weren't real, or that we fabricated them from whole cloth (as some actually believe), its that we didn't recognize them for a long time.

Question is: Why do the Gators have "unwarranted egos with a sense of entitlement"?
