Depends on what you mean by "rabid". If you mean devotion to their team and a passion for their team that it consumes much of their life, then us Bama fans are as "rabid" as they come. If you mean "rabid" as in loud and passionate from a vocal support standpoint inside the stadium, then we are...

"I will remember for all time the occassion when Charles said something like, "I am not a role model... parents should be role models." Any athlete who won't acknowledge the fact that he/she is a role model to some doesn't understand our culture and demonstrates that ignorance to everyone."...

"Originally Posted by IH8Orange I've always wondered: Can one hear a mute question?" :p_lol: :p_lol: :p_lol: :p_lol: :p_lol: :p_lol: :p_lol: I personally don't mind UAB in sports. What does irritate me is their snappy attitude about breaking away from the system and whining about...

"I always go back to what Coach Bryant used to say about celebrating when you score a touchdown. "Act like you've been there before". By touting our National & SEC Championships we are bragging about our past (there's no need everybody already knows). However, if we don't throw those items in...

GREAT COMEBACK WIN!!!! :biggrin:

I think people are looking at this from the wrong perspective. So much of the question posed depends on where your football and basketball program is at the time. An NIT championship although nice would be a retrogression of the basketball program from the point it is at. After 4 straight NCAA...

Your lecturing would make sense if any of the things you just said were true. People weren't calling for Gottfried to be fired after the Kent State game or the Indiana game, people weren't "worried" about Gottfried leaving after the Elite 8 run last year, and finally people aren't "calling for...

"But that won't stop CMG from taking a better job if one comes along. And, it will." If CMG isn't happy and he can find a better off I say go for it. I'd also say I appreciate everything you've done for the program and the classy manner in which you've led. I'd tell him I appreciated his...

Did anyone see the town hall meeting on ESPN last night? Brand brought up the fact that a booster was about to get around 15 years in prison. I don't know if those were his exact words, but you get the point. My question is have they already sentenced LY? If not, how does Brand know that LY is...

I would put George in the mix in the spot Shelton departs. I've heard he's a very nice #2 guard

"I think Gottfried recruits well and runs a clean, classy program. I definitely hope he stays with Alabama. However, I do hope he continues to work hard to improve his X's and O's ability. I don't think we are always prepared and I'm not a big fan of our offense, but I do like Coach Gottfried...

"The spring game date was set several weeks ago and is played at the usual time (2 pm). The basketball team will be playing that saturday at 4:30 pm due to the draw it got. Besides, the A-day game will be over in time for the basketball game. No problem.." Yes, but the athletic department knew...

I'm no LSU fan, but how on earth are they not ranked? They've been red hot the last month and their only loss was by 1 to UK in OT in what basically amounted to a UK home game.

Hate to play devil's advocate, but... "Basically said that Alabama was a "poser" team that the fans only care about football. We will be the 5 seed to lose to a 12 seed. I don't know about ya'll, but every team that plays for the University of Alabama is important to me. The guy also stated...

Maybe if they didn't decide to play the A-day game the same time Alabama is likely playing their 2nd game in the NCAA tournament then it could be the largest A-day crowd ever. Believe it or not, some people actually care about our basketball program. :rolleyes:

"Birmingham needs to concentrate on losing more jobs and people and quit trying to keep up with the rest of the world as they have already fallen so far behind. Montgomery and Mobile and even Huntsville are much better areas." No offense, but this is just a ridiculous statement. Montgomery is...

Brando and Conley have been harping on the fact that there are still a lot of empty seats even at today's game.

Fantastic post Bama 3:16. Excellent, excellent points. As for the Wednesday night church excuse, I respect that but don't think it's a great excuse. Most churches, in the Bham area (at least), have stuff going on just about every weeknight anyway. I've never understood the firm universal...

I wanted to combine my life long fascination with the weather and my love of all things Bama into a name that was synonymous with the power of the Crimson Tide. A storm surge is a frighteningly powerful force associated with the raging tide produced by a hurricane. Once it builds momentum, it...

Great video but why don't we ever seem to update our enrollment figures? :confused: It's almost as if they are afraid of admitting that we have over 20,000 students (20,969 to be exact). It seems like the enrollment figures our media relations dept. puts out are always a couple of years behind.
