No. He is absolutely no Bama fan if he feels that way. Prolly a barner troll.

Nonsense.  Follow the popcorn...

I wouldn't say that bored is the right word for it, but it's certainly changing our perception.  Sometimes I imagine the disappoint I will feel if we have a 2-loss season or a 1-loss season and don't make the big game.  Or, heaven forbid, we get beat in the big won.

I mean, with any of those scenarios, with the worst being an 11-2 season, it's a good year.  However, I don't think we can appreciate a "good" year anymore...I think our success has spoiled that for us.

We've raised the bar of expectation.

My daughter told me during a game last year "We are so good the games are not fun to watch anymore". We were blowing out Arky at the time. I disagreed. Winning and winning big is not boring. Actually it is a heck of a lot of fun.

You have never seen a party like I will have when we hit 98-0 over the barners.  Onwards and upwards!

I have never been bored with anything of Alabama. Winning is really fun. Bored? They must not have much blood flow if they are bored. RTR!

Never bored. It is about the process. Winning breeds excellence.

I can understand a little of where she's coming from.  I made the trip to Dallas last year.  Trust me, with three big Bama fans on a 10-hour ride out and seeing the Bama/Michigan folks everywhere we went in Dallas before the game, we were plenty amped up.  But the climax came in the first quarter of the game, really.  By midway through the 2nd quarter the only questions left were how bad Saban wanted to let it get, which of the freshmen would play, and how many Jack and diets I'd have.  It was a little unsatisfying after the build up.

I love blowouts. They are my favorite type of game involving Bama winning. The Jawja game about gave this ole boy a heart attack. I can't take too many of those. Just sayin'....

I heard a discussion on ESPN a few days ago.  They were discussing how to beat Alabama.  I forgot the exact stats, but one was something like, "Saban doesn't have a good record in close games.  In games of ~5 points or less, he's just 5-4."  Then they concluded, "The way to beat Saban is keep it close."

Talk about stretching stats!!
