The statue of the evil racist erected in 2010 outside the stadium.

Your concerns have zero to do with the subject matter.

I'm confused, did not Bryant finally integrate Alabama football....was he not the first in the SEC to do it?


Alabama was his last job, not his first. That being said, he was rumored a racist. LSU had Curley Hallman who was also considered racist AF.

Tennessee needs to nip this. Schools should come out with frick off statements.

If Auburn caves to any of this, I'm done with them.

I'm sure he wasnt a fan of recruiting them either.

. You are judging people from
The past off of what was common practices and conduct in their time and fit it into today’s standards. That is impossible and unfair. Them
Ppl were just living in their time.
Using this theory it should be ok for me to punish and condemn Japanese people in 2020 based upon what their country men did to us in World War Ii

That's by design. Sports are a unifying activity, can't have that nowadays, you're supposed to hate your neighbors and family.


Someone understands what’s going on here. It’s sad that seemingly NOBODY being played by these tactics does.
