The fact that neither Alabama nor Georgia can seemingly come up with a Republican statewide political candidate unless they are directly related to an SEC football program may be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen


This isn’t happening in a vacuum. I’ll let Georgians speak for themselves, but the quality of candidates that have emerged through the “it’s my turn now” clock-watching mindset in Montgomery hasn’t exactly bolstered Alabamians’ confidence in the ability of the reigning political class on Goat Hill to produce quality candidates.

Unless he plans to govern shirtless. Then it might be a concern.

The obvious advantages of name recognition aside for the people who reside in football crazed states, is there some rule I’m unaware of that states if one was associated with a big-time college football program, they are automatically unqualified to be reasonable, thinking people off the field vs someone who didn’t play football?

Hopefully, Louisiana doesn’t go down that rabbit hole.


Nuss for governor in 2027 or 2031?

We will have Tubbs as the Guvna and AJ as LT, I can deal with that. I live in Florida but Alabama is still home in my heart.

As someone who has always made staying fit a priority in my life, I am always amazed to see a football player who has competed at such an elite level look as if the most strenuous activity they ever attempted is popping a top off a beer can.

I call it the Kenny Stabler phenomenon: a strong arm, football smarts and a searing will to win often take precedence over those athletes blessed with inborn physical attributes.

AJ seems like a pretty cool dude.
But like our Secretary of the War Department, he has a big 'ole tattoo on his chest.

Is your preferred candidate a professional politician?

The only thing they’re really good at is stealing from us.

Well we could elect some democrats who are too stupid to figure out what a woman is. AJ definitely figured that out.


That or continue to re elect career politicians that provide nothing of benefit. I’d rather see a principled and conservative common man get a chance to see what they can do in office.
