While last night's game has me gutted, I am still so thankful to be a fan of the Alabama Crimson Tide. I look back on a great season which ended 12-2. I am thankful to the seniors, both starters and backups, for all the work they did with the lower classmen and being a good example to the team. While it will be bittersweet to see AJ, Kevin N, CJ, and the rest move on to their new careers, whether it be in the NFL or elsewhere, I can look forward to the 2014 season when I get to see the new starters, who starts at QB, and all the 2014 freshmen who will one day lead the team.
Many thanks to all the coaches and support staff, many of whom work diligently behind the scenes. We may lose some coaches to other programs as they seek to move up in the coaching ranks elsewhere. Them I wish good luck except when they play the Tide and welcome in their replacements.
We've been spoiled the last couple of years with NCs but I am a positive person so I look on 2013 as I looked on 2010, a good learning experience which will bring out the best in future Tide football teams.
