Certainly there are fans on either side of the "bell curve" when it comes to idiocy, lewdness, or whatever. It's the 80% in the middle that make up the "core" or the essence of the fan base and core Bama fans love this. You know it will be on T-shirts in Tuscaloosa before Mardi Gras.

Grew up in LA but now live in AL and I will tell you from close observation, there is a HUGE difference between Bama fans and the rest of humanity. However, most people think that it's the ignorant rednecks that are the most offensive and the opposite is true. Those with money (supposed upper middle class) and a Bama pedigree are the WORST.

The kid that shot the video and the sportscaster's son who was the wannabe teabagger come from Mobile society -- the meanest, cliqueish bunch there are. It's an environment of people who snub and bully their way through life. They are the ANTITHESIS of southern Louisiana folks.

Sure, the teabagger is a POS, but the others cheering and standing by, AND FILMING, are just as culpable. I hope they all get what they deserve.

On cfl, pollack said their defense is the reason they are on a ten game winning streak.what offensive juggernauts have they shut down? UGA has benefited from not playing LSU, Bama and Arkansas to date.

THIS.

Weak wins on mediocre (at best) teams. Georgia outscored common opponents, 159-72 while LSU outscored common opponents, 230-44.

What if...
The GA who witnessed the attack (or his father)had made even an anonymous phone call to Child Protective Services over what he saw at least to shine a light on Sandusky?

JoePa had practiced what he preached and "done the right thing" and insisted that Curly and Schultz and Granier report the incident to CPS, at the very least?

Yes, the program and JoePa would likely have taken a hit and he maybe even would have had to resign, but at least he would be able to look in the mirror and not feel like the biggest hypocrite ever.

Remember, this was all taking place when the abuse in the Catholic Church was heavily covered in the media. It's likely that McQueary wanted his dream job (and his witness of the crime assured that as long as he kept quiet. JoePa couldn't stand to think of losing his venerated demi-god status and the "administration" didn't want the monetary liability of a huge settlement to even one victim.

Personally, I think this thing goes a whole lot deeper than what we know so far. It all stinks the high heavens, even the coincidence of the missing DA.

Thanks for posting. Some of these judgemental reactionaries who write this kid off as some mafia thug gangbanger from New Orleans should see this.

Having a 20yr. old college Soph., I can tell you that there are many "surprises" that can happen when they're out there on their own for the first time.

Those are great people who have raised a good son. The foundation is there and he'll find his way.

Man, that is gold.

Correcting my bad grammar...

They're starting to eat their young. McCarron ON the spit now. Coming up...Saban, Williams, FG kickers, and SEC officials.

Right, because that would have been the end of the game. There wasn't the WHOLE 4th quarter left. :rolleyes:

How many times were they within the 30 yd line?

Looked it up...Bama within the 30 three times for -17 yards and 1 turnover.

They also had two drives to just passed the 30.

I live in Mobile and my husband's golf buddies cried a river yesterday and today about how the best team lost due to:

- bad calls on every good thing Bama did (clipping on INT return)
- Reid's "taking" the ball from Williams
- Mathieu's "clothesline" of Kirkpatrick
- Wing's punt hitting the guidewire (it didn't)
- Special Teams
- Nick Saban's stupidity
- the weather, etc., etc.
:violin:

Still, the Bammers cannot give LSU their due.

I did have ONE FB friend who posted a nice congratulatory message and said we deserved to win. Few and far between, however.

That's ok. I've got my facts and will continue to extoll the BEST team in the country -- LSU!

:geauxtigers:

Paul pays no attention to TM7's apology. "He may have been still high."

Wow, the class of these clowns (or lack thereof) is remarkable.

YOU LOST! DEAL WITH IT! :spank:
