anywhere BUT the pit of HELL called opelika/goober
Anybody seen this birmingspam peyoo article/blog or whatever you want to call it trying to compare BDS to the acorns and the mich chicken's digs?
This wannabee is trying to insult BDS by calling it piecemealed.
HA! Hes just poed because Bama has the best stadium in the entire nation
which has the best of the old style and the best in modern architecture.

He's obviously a little 10 homer. BDS hasnt even been finished and hes talking outta his tailpipe when he has no such knowledge of the issue.

Seems like Arenberg is miffed at Scarbo and is about to storm out of the building and run over a squirrel or something to try to soothe his nerves.

I wish he would just fire Scarbinsky, whom he is on the verge of having a very serious pillow fight with, and just call it a day.

We would all be less one auNeck leaning hack and Arenberg could get back to his regularly scheduled mint extract facial down at the local Metrosexual Hair and Nails Plaza.
 
These stadiums are destinations for football fans who aren't fans of Michigan and Ohio State.

Seems like just last week I was telling my brother that my goal in life is to see Ohio State's and Michigan's stadiums up close and in person. :rolleyes:

I've driven past auburn's stadium but never had any overwhelming desire to enter and I consider it better than any Big 10 stadium.

Alabama.


The poster in question names "Alamass "

says:

Here's a couple of facts......
*Bryant Denny had about 60,000 seats in 1966; The Horseshoe sold out in 1935 at a max of 81,000.
*Michigan Stadium opened in 1927 at 72,000 capacity; Bryant Denny wouldn't pass that until 1988.
So it's safe to assume that Bryant Denny's rise to football prominence as a big-time stadium is a relatively recent development.
Ohio Stadium's entrance was designed after the Pantheon in Rome. Michigan Stadium is actually below grade, and visitors can only see about 20 rows of seats up from outside the stadium. It was modeled after the Yale Bowl. Bryant-Denny has no such architectural inspiration.
And I wouldn't place Bryant-Denny in my top three stadiums outside of OSU and Michigan. Oregon's Autzen Stadium seats only 55,000, but was designed such that it would amplify the noise of the crowd to that of about 150,000 people in a normal stadium. Notre Dame is historic, and Touchdown Jesus pokes his head over one of the endzones. USC's Coliseum was site of the Olympic Opening Ceremonies twice, and the football hasn't been too bad there in the past (don't know about the years to come though!).
Bryant-Denny is getting there, but having been to games at both the Horseshoe and Bryant-Denny, The Horseshoe wins convincingly. It is surrounded by open spaces and a river, and it manages to stay semi-clean on game day. Fans are, on the most part, civil. Bryant-Denny is cramped from the outside (especially the front on Bryant Ave.), and the Quad is always trashed before and after games. A great number of fans also get trashed, just to go into the stadium and yell the Rammer Jammer cheer. Wouldn't want my children growing up around such a vile, spiteful, and angry tradition that tarnishes the healthy spirit of sports and competition every Saturday in fall. Bama fans need to grow a collective backbone and petition the university to stop it.
By the way, Nick Saban is from Ohio, Mike Slive is a New Yorker, and Mark Ingram is a Michigan man. Today's SEC bigshots aren't home grown; they're taking a lot of what makes sports great in other regions and bringing those ideas to the South. Alabama has plenty of reasons to be proud, but so do most other teams and states. That's a proven fact that has to be realized."


Boy thats so insightful and all this time I thought CNS and both Ingram were both from Tuscaloosa. :rolleyes: Really and peeps north of the Mason Dixon line not to mention from the New England area say we're dumb. This guy screams ignorant idiot syndrome because I mean Im sure there isnt a reason why the fool golders in south bend the youseguys in meat chicken and the acorns in the horseshoe toilet are breaking their necks to get these elite athletes from the deep south.

Jealously knows no bounds when it comes to anti-Bama sentiments.
In other words when it comes to hatred of UA just start making random insults and that will justifyingly make it all better in their hollow heads.
 
This writer reminds me of a screwball friend of mine. Some years ago I showed him this hot photo of Cindy Crawford and he said, "yeah, but she's got that mole."

My favorite comment on the article page was"

"I could have watched little kids spit watermelon seeds, but I read this instead. Big mistake."

Perfect!

No one has that kind of hate for Alabama but an auNeck. This was written by an undercover auNeck doing their time tested "posing."

If Plainman Stadium was nicer than Bryant-Denny, he never would have wrote all of that, yet would have been singing the praises of Plainman Stadium as compared to BD. Instead, he has to latch onto the glory of other teams stadiums to even sound halfway sane while denigrating BD.

Anyway, I always like to think that some of the spirit of Legion Field is incorporated into BD. One of the major reasons why BD was not upgraded on a more regular basis was because of Legion Field.
 
Ahhhh. Decry the evils of major college athletics (especially in the South, they're ok in Ohio :rolleye2:) and take a swipe at Alabama's newly renovated football stadium. This guy does work for The Birmingham News right?

There are 2 possible reasons for his opinion piece:

1) It's the only way he knows how to get readership. If you can't be informative, be spiteful. As long as he's getting "feedback," he'll feel like he's done a good job. I'll resist the urge to give him the satisfaction.

2) He actually feels this way and wishes to educate we "rednecks" about the glory of the fabled Big Televe..whatever. Spare me! I've never been myself, but I've heard the "Big House" is the quietest 108,000 people could possibly be.

So, he's either appealing to the lowest common denominator, or he's a sanctimonious mule. I wish I hadn't wasted my time reading it.
 
When the season starts and BDS is full and rocking, there will be plenty of accolades for our improved home. I can't wait to be there.
 
He needs to move back to Michigan if he is so in love with it. I'll take winning in BD anytime over losing in the big house. He's a northerner who care's what they say?

He won't be moving back to Michigan. When they leave Michigan and go to the south or the west, they don't go back.

Remember what Delaney said: the demographics are changing drastically between the midwest and the south and west. The population of the midwest is becoming older on average and many of their highly-educated residents move to the south and the west to take higher-paying jobs and live in warmer climates.

Whenever a northern refugee extols the virtues of the north, I just ask them, "Wow, what kind of fool would leave that panacea to live amongst all these yokels?"

"Oh, yeah... an employed one."
 
"By the way, Nick Saban is from Ohio, Mike Slive is a New Yorker, and Mark Ingram is a Michigan man."

But where were they born? I don't know and I suspect neither does he. :) Since he made such a big deal of it, I wonder where all the Big 10 +1 +1 HC were born/are from? I it was worth the effort I would look it up, but it is not.
 
I'll take Bryant-Denny over any stadium in the country just because of the many memories I have of the place. However, the writer does make a point about the trash left around our beautiful campus. I've always thought that only trashy people leave their trash behind. I would hope that all Bama fans take that as a challenge to keep what we have clean on gamedays and everyday.

A few of you have mentioned something that I have always thought. If they love the North so much, why do they come here? I had a roomate from Michigan when I was in school in Tuscaloosa. He would talk about some good things in the North, but he also gave credit to the good things in the South. I will add a new item to the list of good things in the South: the new and improved Bryant-Denny stadium. I always loved BDS, but it is now a phenomenal stadium.

Roll Tide!
