Hating on the $EC - Mostly Alabama (and a little Georgia too)

[AlabamAlum]

Turns out the Goofers were a pretty good team. Would have thought an 11-win season would be their all-time high, but I was corrected and chagrined to learn their 1904 team (back in the era of Michigan Greatness) went 14-0. Of course, that record was padded with such juggernauts as Twin Cities Central High, Shattuck Boarding School, and Lawrence University.

I don't think that's happening. Wait, are the Vals any good?

[AlabamAlum]

The Vols are improved and play hard. Won 5-straight to finish the season. They're still a shit ball team, though.

They always win 4 or 5 to finish the season.

[AlabamAlum]

The NC game should be fun, but I hate both teams. Just looking forward to one of them having their hearts ripped out.

Glass half full.

Why do you lie DSL?

[Dr. Strangelove]

I can't help it if they've sucked so bad as to start losing to Kentucky, Vandy, and Missouri on a regular basis.

[AlabamAlum]

You can help lying about recent Vol success. Do not do it again. Consider this a verbal warning. If it happens again, I will have to cut your hours back.

[iam416]

A little softer response than I generally expect from AA.

[AlabamAlum]

I have tix to the Bham Bowl today. Cinci and Boston College. But we have a monsoon with flash floods in the area. So, yeah, not going. With lightning, this game may end up cancelled.

New year. Gonna be an affable good-time Charlie. COMITY!

Why does AlabamAlum hate Legion Field?

[AlabamAlum]

It's dilapidated and in a very bad area of town. Smack dab in the middle of projects and run-down crack houses. Since Bama and Auburn don't play there anymore the city has let it fall into disrepair. It's a shame, really. That said, my Glock and I were going, but not to sit through a low tier bowl in a rain storm.

But, FICKELL!!!!
