Anyone else already tired of Alabama?

  • I live in Maryland , and am starting to see people wearing Alabama hats. And Alabama bumper stickers on there cars. How do you bama fans feel about Johnny come lately bandwagon fans?

    To me their the lowest form,and worst type of fans out there.
    They tell you they love the team. Yet can't name 2 players. Have no sense of history of the team at all.

    Leinart was popular but was only big time because he had all-americans everywhere on the field. Matt Flynn... lol. No different than Greg McElroy. Take care of the ball with an occassional nice play. Truth is most of the time big time QB's don't win championships. Peyton Manning, Andrew Luck, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Eli Manning, Phillip Rivers, Jay Cutler, etc... Cam was a pro when he won so not sure if he counts. haha. Bama like many other championship teams win with ball control, win at the line of scrimmage and tough defense.

    Cam Newton was pretty big time.

    Ok see i didnt know that. Just amazes me how bama wins with Qbs i cant even remember their names. Most of the college teams that have won titles had big time Qbs. Matt Leinart, Tebow, Matt Flynn Etc.

    no they had defenses .

  • Cute post but aren't you a little late on the Bama hate thing? We got used to that a long, long time ago. Bama, first Southern team to go to the Rose Bowl. Shocked all the pundits on winning that game. After our fourth win in '46, the Rose Bowl decided to lock in with the Big Ten. That was 66 years ago! Only Michigan and Ohio State have more Rose wins that Bama when considering the mighty Big Ten. Yep, I can see why we are hated. There was a time when we weren't and it didn't feel good. Seeing this post, reminds me of the good ole times. Back to back National Championships in '64 and '65. We go undefeated in '66 and the journalists couldn't stand it. So, they made Notre Dame and Michigan State co-champions because the tie between them was their only blemish. Few teams had a decade like Bama in the 70's. Then we put it on Miami in the Sugar Bowl after the '92 season. (They still haven't recovered from that beat down.) Then a long spell of people not hatin' us. Bummer! But now it feels like ole times are back. People hate us again! Thanks for the post! It's kinda like an affirmation that Bama's Back! I hope we keep up the reasons for your disgust. The way it's looking, you might want to stock on some Excedrin pal. Oh yeah, Roll Tide! Now go do your laundry!

  • I guarantee you all, that I hate Alabama more than anyone ITT. Really, it's just their fans...I respect Saban (not too much though, I'm a Dolphins fan). Unfortunately, I will refrain from speaking out here - these people thrive on other people trying to belittle them and their program. They refuse to listen to reason and continue on with "PRAISE GOD, NOBAMA, AND ROLL DAMN TIDE" and the like. There's no point.

  • Also, BamaShack, you're an Alabama fan, a Miami Heat fan, and a New England Patriots fan, no? How did that happen?

    I really don't care for bandwaggoners, but people fairly new to college football choosing us would seem acceptable. For what it's worth, one of my wife's best friends is Mrs. Maryland from (I think 2011). She's a Bama girl that moved up to Baltimore several years back. They have get togethers for reasonably large quantities of Bama alums working in Washington/Baltimore, usually just to watch games. Our alums cover a broad territory, but I know what you mean. You probably saw 2 bumper stickers from 1997-2007, and now you probably see 4 a day.

  • You may hate the "bandwagon crowd" the media who has little else to talk about, and the fact that it may become a long stretch in time before this Tidal Glacier completes its quest.

    Alabama, USC, Michigan, Nebraska, Notre Dame, and Miami have all been hated at one time or another for success and bandwagon fanfare it goes with the turf. You can throw Oklahoma into the mix also.

    I will just ask you to focus on 2014 and the first 4+1 playoff scenario, once things are won in a fairer system it wont be so bad unless you are an ignorant Barner.

    Yeah, I had him in there. Said he was already a professional when he won the BCS. Just kidding though. I can't think of another QB or player in general that carried a team quite like Cam.

    On a completely unrelated topic, your 3rd grade English teacher just got fired.

    Still want my weekly O's update though.

    Hell, she didn't have to get fired, she committed suicide.

  • Sad thing for all the haters on here is this is just the beginning. I expect Alabama to be in this same spot a decade from now. Be prepared.

  • Don't usually bother with these types of threads, but this morning, I'm wasting time till a few appointments... this thought comes to mind reading this thread...shouldn't y'all be thinking about your own team, and how you're going to compete this season, instead of looking at whatever program(s) is on top right now? Sounds a lot like fUCLA fans and their team...always looking across town at what USC is doing, and not focusing on their own team and program.

    Hate for others over one game or sport, is such a waste, IMO. Is your identity as a university (or as is the case with too many on here, a conference) based on what happens on the football field?

    Good luck to all this coming season, and that includes Bama, LSU, Michigan, etc., and whoever else happens to be on top this season. Respect all of you, but I care for only my team and how we fare. We win or lose on our own, don't care who we face in the end if we're one of the programs left standing.

    Fight On! Y'all, lol.

    True post here. Every time someone makes a post about us, whether it be true or not, we use it as fire to become even more obnoxious and what not. You could make a comparison between our fans and Eminem, at least for motivational reasons.

    I was OK w/ your initial post, but as you've continued my distaste for you has grown... and not because you hate on Bama. That honestly doesn't bother me. You bother me because you seem like a dude that would annoy me in real life. Well, that and the fact that I have to read what you write 3 times before I understand what you're trying to say.

    You should be more upset with all of the English teachers that so utterly failed you throughout your childhood. Bama should be the least of your worries. I'd suggest possibly starting at 2nd grade in an English class. Similar to what Billy Madison did. Or maybe you can take an adult "English as a second language" class?? I'm just throwing out options... you can decide the best route to take.

    the fact that soccer is in your handle and you're a maryland fan is all i need to know...i guess you're ready for the start of the wnba playoffs and summer x games.

    you got one thing right, we are the new york yankees of college football.

    Yes am a pro Soccer, pro Europe wine drinking Liberal so what.

    I enjoy the finer things in life, that some Alabama fans don't. Like reading the daily news paper, brushing my teeth every morning. But to be fair to the state of Alabama they might be #1 in college football. But their still only #3 in the fattest state. #1 is Mississippi,#2 is Arkansas there.
