Tim didn't write the song. Bob DiPiero and Tom Douglas did..and neither were from or went to Bama.

At least he made the "X" symbol in the video when he HAD to sing that part.

Redneck pop isn't the same as "country "

The reason Tim put the Crimson Tide line in that song is that he is a little preterbed w/ the Tigers. Tim, like most Rayville people, is sick of Les Miles and his Rayvilly biased attitude. We realize that Ricky Murphy and Chris Tolliver have been purposly left out of the starting lineup, and consequently recent Heisman discussions, just because Miles hates all things Richland Parish.

Tim has to appeal to the lowest common denominator, just like NASCAR does, it sells.

He is from Start. That is like saying someone is from Monroe when they are from West Monroe.

He didn't write the song. Maybe he should write one and put LSU in it. Or maybe some of you really smart LSU music majors could get busy on this.

"Yeah it is only the biggest selling genre out there. Pop in some hip-hop and let your jeans hang!"



Let me get this straight... If you don't like country, you must be a hip hop fan?

The biggest selling genre is the best? If that were the case, we'd all be huge fans of American Idol and enjoy Larry the Cable Guy. Thanks, but no thanks.

Wait...Let me see if I can do it. Get R Done!

Hi fricking larious!

It should've read: The biggest selling genre to the majority of Americans. Not everyone likes country music...as noted here. I agree that it's gotten away from it's traditional roots but that's what progression is all about. It sells immensely the way it is and I'm fine with that...because I'm a fan of it...don't get me wrong...but it's nice to know that a few artists are still trying to hold on to traditional sounding country music; ala George Strait and Alan Jackson.

Tim, if you're reading this, my wife is hot and has a major crush on you. And btw, tell Faith to give me a call.

Too bad Tim Mcgraw(like most modern country) sucks arse. Shows you how big of sell out he is too, singing a song that has a pro-bama line in it when he is an LSU fan. What a tool. If I was an LSU fan, I definitely would not like him.

What's up with that? First it's the LSU bag, then it's a crate, then it's nothing. Did somebody photoshop this thing?

If you are talking to me, I apologize for pointing out that Tim Mcgraw is huge sell out for singing that line of the song while he is a huge LSU fan.

I think that is in reference to the Pittsburgh Steelers' six Super Bowl championships.
