Tide since the late 1940's. From Coach Thomas and Coach Bryant I learned a healthy respect for the football team from Tennessee. I truly thought the cream of college football wore crimson / or orange. Sure, we loved to beat the Vols, it indicated that you had a good football team if you could do that.

Today, fans have to "hate." I know some use the word loosely, and some don't. However, when you start hoping for a state to be "nuked" or people to die, or say you could gladly kill someone because of the team they cheer for, it has gone over the edge. I know you will think this is just a "geezer" talking, and I am one. But I miss the days when visiting fans were treated as guests, whether at Alabama or at Knoxville. Nothing thrown, nothing poured (except at Baton Rouge, where it's expected).

Hope we have a good game Saturday, and, as always, hope that none of the young men playing receive serious injuries. Thanks for letting me write on your forum.

Look, it's BAMA week! Some of my best friends are Tide fans...but October brings on a transformation. Think of the Birmingham lawyer-boosters, Logan Young, car dealers, snake handlers, Paul Pinebalm, & other Red Menace yokels...you'll remember that NObama! has a double meaning, especially in 2008.
GO VOLS!

Hate is such a strong word. But yes, I do Hate the Tide. Vols win! 17-14, game winning TD comes from Berry at QB, who throws it to... himself! (Sportscenter Game Changing play of the week)
