An Alabama Fan's Take on Denying Our Request to Wear the Orange Jerseys

What does the Alabama Crimson Tide have in common with Wimbledon?

Ans. The players are all on grass.

I think the bammers are playing right into Kiffin's hand!!!!
He knew they would turn this request down and it's just another way to "fire up" our team!!!!!

Give 'um Hell Vols!!!!!!!!

If LK has resorted to "They won't let us wear our home jerseys!!!" as the one thing that will put you guys over the top, then, well, I'd say the desperation is sinking in.

No, no, no. Nope. That's not the real reason at all. THIS is the real reason:

***Vols: The real reason Bama won't let UT wear orange...*** - Topic Powered by Eve For Enterprise

"Because screw you Tennessee, that's why.

What part of this are you not understanding?

Your weak-ass coach made this weak-ass request for a FAVOR from Nick Saban. Read that again. Did you really think he was going to relent on anything? Anything at all? He isn't giving you a damned thing except an ass-whipping.

You don't get to be special. You don't get to wear your home jerseys. You aren't playing at home. You are playing in Bama's house. And Nick Saban doesn't want to be your friend. He wants to dominate you.

It was an insult to even ask for his permission. You think this will help fire up your players? Nick Saban and Bama players are going to be fired up that you even had the gall to disrespect them enough to ask about wearing your ugly-ass home jerseys to their house.

You want to talk about how this jersey thing is supposed to be a tradition? How you want to renew it? We are going to celebrate the only tradition that really matters in this series: Bama stomping your snitching, jealous, Hee-Haw hillbilly asses.

And while we're at it: Saban has a point to prove about Bama being the dominant team in the SEC. You can't do to Bama what you did when you embarassed Florida. You can't take the ball out of Crompton's hands and run against Bama like you did against Florida. You won't move the ball on Bama like that. You can't burn clock against Bama like you did against Florida. There is no way to play it safe and keep it respectable. Your running game will be stifled for three-and-outs all day long unless you make Crompton play. And the Bama defense will eat him alive when that happens. There is no hope for your team.

Bama just told you and Kiffin to go screw yourselves.

Now Bama is going to give you and your coach the reality check everyone has been waiting for. The one Florida wasn't man enough to give you."

you are a waste to this site... take your inbred troll butt back to bama's site and leave this discussion to the grown ups. how's 10 out of the last 12 tasting in you mouth.....

I agree with this, and in some strange way appreciate it. I would expect Kiffin and Hamilton to have the same attitude in a similar situation.

Now, if UT shows up in orange and takes the penalty (a time out, I believe in both halves,) there isn't a hell of a lot they can do about it, which in itself would be a way of returning the favor. I don't really care if we play in orange or white, but part of me would like to see us show up wearing whatever we damn well please.

Wasn't the reason kiffin wanted to wear the orange jerseys in the first place because it was a cover picture from SI decades ago? Where we played in Bryant Denny wearing orange while they wore crimson?

I doubt it. Both teams wore home colors for some time, but remember that we played them for their home games in Birmingham for something like 70 years. I'll try to find the dates, but I'm pretty sure the picture you are talking about would have been from Legion Field.

No, that message board post will. And nobody gives a rat's ass what you say.

I wish our players got paid for their services like yours do, then we wouldn't have that problem...:cray:

So I'm guessing Krystal is the place to go for dinner in Tuscalooser...

If they didn't have Mountain Brook, the Feds would have made the entire state a nuclear waste facility. Instead, it remains a human waste facility.

We played in Tuscaloosa only 3 times until recently, all before 1931. From '31--'99, Bama's home game with us was always in Birmingham.

Mountain Brook and my neighborhood.

Also, we have the U.S. version of Wimberton just down the road.

10 out of the last 12? Not sure what you mean there. "10 out of the last 12" would've been appropriate two years ago, since at that point you had won 10 of 12 from us given that the NCAA took away our '05 win.

At any rate, my response to you is this: How does 70-26 taste?

I would LOVE it if UT showed up in orange and took the penalties. It would ratchet up the whole thing a notch.

Is that the amount of National Championships you guys are claiming now?

That isnt even close to what the overall record is just like the alabama "12" championships they gotta exaggerate everything

Wimbledon: Strawberries and Cream
Alabama: A bottle of ripple and pork rinds

Wimbledon: The Queen sits in the Royal Box
Alabama: Several queens on the sidelines

Wimbledon: Classy white attire.
Alabama: Houndstooth undies

Wimbledon: Taste, decorum, refinement
Alabama: Say whut?

Wimbledon: God save the Queen
Alabama: Bama Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer (or whatever its called)

Wimbledon: The police do not need to carry guns
Alabama: Most of the team is packing

Wimbledon: Everyone in the stands has really bad teeth
Alabama: Well, that's one thing in common.
