Yesterday was a nasty, nasty performance, worse only than the week before performance against MSU. We have lost to two teams that should not have beaten us, and in the process, looked pitiful doing so. This isn't coaching, and it wasn't coaching a year ago, when we lost to LSU, MSU and Auburn...

Pardon the english, but those chumps are now 1-9. 1 and freakin' 9. That's a school record there for losses. We've had some sucky seasons this past few years. But we have never been 1-9. For Notre Dame, next week's showdown versus Duke is NOT a lock for a win, though I feel they might get...

Well, one of the best weeks of the college football season is now here. As has been my tradition since my days at The Capstone, this week must have excessive drinking and loud music. So, in remembrance of my senior year, following will be consumed at various locations as I travel the southeast...

The final in the UT-MSU game Saturday was 33-21. It was a pretty tight game until late, which just shows that MSU has continued to improve this season, I believe. I think they are going to be a tough, tough task for Bama in November. Remember, they beat us last year (as if I need to remind...

Last week's loss didn't leave me sour. I thought that we progressed through the game, gave it a great shot, and had a chance to win. I felt that we had played well enough to win and get to 3-0, but that UGA and FSU probably had more talent than us, and should win against us. But I need to...

I was in Orlando at a business conference in Disney this week. We had a speaker one afternoon from one of the largest money management companies in the world, who had arrived from New York, NY. He was talking about his home near Brooklyn, NY, and mentioned that he had moved there from...

Would anyone have a problem comparing our former QB Jay Barker with our current QB, JP Wilson? I have watched this young man play his heart out the past two seasons, and I still believe he's a winner. He shows that tendency to win and to lead the team when the chips are down. He's not flashy...

I was wondering if the Mountaineers would have had a chance to beat Bama this past weekend, or at all during the past few years. I keep hearing all of this bad-mouthing of UM, but I for one, know how they feel. Losing to La Tech back in 1997, and Kentucky that year. Losing to N. illinois back...

I was working on my business calendar for the day of Sept 11, and realized that it falls on a Tuesday again. If I recall, 9/11/01 was a Tuesday as well. Makes sense, as it has been nearly 6 years, and with one leap year in there, we are now back to the day of the week of that infamous day. As...

I thought it was interesting what happened in H-Town yesterday: http://www.click2houston.com/sports/13953106/detail.html We do play them later this season, and they were a bowl team in 2006. All that being said, wow, talk about the shock of all shocks. This guy was competing for the starting...

And it couldn't get here sooner. All of these stupid stories about grades getting changed, players getting arrested, and predictions from talking heads and media are making my blood pressure too high. Even my golden retriver, Maddux, is getting tired of it. Last night, he hiked his leg on a...

I've been reading about these arrests and these issues off the field, and I must say, comparing some rough-housing and what-not to some of the issues we've seen at, say, TENNESSEE (not naming names) or Ohio State (Clarett comes to mind) is a far reach. That out of the way, please pardon my...

I have really not heard anything of the head coaching search in Miami. Certainly they have the sense of urgency that us Bama fans have. With the two programs closely paralelling each other right now in terms of on-field performance, one would think that the two positions might be of influence...

I mean, I ask because this guy always seems to know more about Bama than we know, and he was a big source of information in the not that long ago past. I can't access Gridscape here at my work, so that's why I'm asking...

A couple of points I want to make: 1- Is there anyone in Congress or the House of Rep. that can prevent Halliburton from getting the contract to rebuild New Orleans and Miss. infrastructure following Katrina? I would like to see a pro-active approach to keeping greed and corruption out of...

At least partially? could these troops not be better used here at home, protecting the citizens of the United States, specifically, New Orleans, and soon, Houston? I have made my argument before, and God bless all the folks who support this war in Iraq. Notice I said support the "war" in...

What do you think? Discuss amongst ya-sleves....

I was watching the 1978 USC-Bama game today on ESPN college classics, and watched Coach Bryant patiently walk the sidelines. It got me to thinking: what were his weaknesses as a coach? It's hard for those of us who were pretty young or not even alive when he was the coach. We only hear about...

I am bringing this up in response to a freakish thing that has happened to me in a video game. Is it possible that two SEC teams could compete as #1 and #2 in the national championship? Does the BCS have a mechanism to prevent this? Case in point: Florida, who lost in the head-to-head against...
