I'm glad to see that Pickens is over her injury and doing well. She is incredible! Roll Tide Roll!

I went to the meet at PSU. You cannot begin to compare the atmosphere of a Bama home meet with that of one at Penn State. The PSU crowd had no concept of home court advantage.

There were about 100 Bama fans there and we outcheered the PSU crowd. The PSU cheerleaders finally showed up after the second rotation. We joked that it was because we were so loud.

It looked like our girls were under-scored on the vault. Andree definitely deserved a 10. We also got gipped on the bars.
Sarah and David spoke to us after the meet. All indications are that we are poised to make a run at UCLA. Anything can happen on any given night, and we have the difficulty in our routines to win it all. Keep up with the future meets at www.gymtide.com.

Marie Robbins was at the meet. A classier and more professional representative of The University cannot be found. Of course she would not go into specifics, but she did say that this has been hard on her. I could tell she was rattled by how mean some of our so-called Bama fans have been to her just because she has been doing her job.
