Special Times for us Bama Fans

[ricky023]

Completely agree Carl. I've been listening to the sports talk here in Baltimore, and a number of the hosts prior to the game were hoping for Bama to lose, not necessarily out of spite but simply to have another team. On Tuesday, not one of the guys I listened to had a bad thing to say about the Tide, which is remarkable. They all expressed admiration for what the guys did during the playoffs. Only one d-bag thought it was a good idea to rip our 2018 schedule, but he was quickly shut down by another guy who happens to be a USCe fan. Boys, people may not like us everywhere, but, for the most part, they are RESPECTING us.

And I for one am enjoying this ride as long as it lasts.

Being in Greenville, SC a lot, CB, you want to know who really hates us? - Clemson fans. You know who loves us? -
 USCe fans. 

That explains a lot. 

  I love the idea of respect cause I can remember when we was going those hard times and everybody laughed at us. CNS arrival sure made a lot of people cry. RTR!

We are indeed the luckiest fans in all of American sports.

I think I did earn this happiness in some small way, though, as my student years in Tuscaloosa were during the Dubose, Franchione, Price, and Shula era.  I promise it didn't take me that long to graduate, the coaching carousel was just spinning quickly in those years.

No sympathy from me, HL.  My student days were spent watching Ears' teams.

And I'm assuming you don't mean Tubberville.

Nope.  I mean the original disaster.  How bad was Whitworth?  His 1955 team went 0-10 with Bart Starr at quarterback!

Guess that explains it.  No Heisman for Bart Starr.

Great article out of the "Tampa Bay Times":

Everything that is great about Alabama — its humility, its attention to detail, its work ethic, its bond to one another, its forgiveness of one another — was on full display Monday night in Bama’s amazing comeback to beat Georgia in the national championship game.

I agree these are indeed great times to be a Bama Fan. I was a student at Bama from 1960 to 1964.  During that time coach Bryant started this Championship run, Winning his first National Championship in 1961 and repeating in 1964 and 1965 while getting robbed in 1966, which may have been his is best team.  Being on campus when this all started was a memory I though could never be surpassed.  But alas, the current situation is at least equal to that memory.  Can't say one was better than the other, they are both special.
