16 reasons to be pumped about Alabama football this year... 1) Jalston Fowler. If you question why this is my number one on my list, you never played football and you dont understand the importance of versatile wrecking-ball with reach-around soft hands. Dudes gonna wreck shop. 2)Im legitimately concerned that our D-line 2-deep is gonna eat the internet. Those guys are monsters. Theyre like a bunch of bears free basing ground up deer antler. But dont worry, it just gets them to normal. 3)Nick Saban. Kirby Smart. Scott Cochran. Wanna fight about it? 4) The thing is, the color of that crimson is just...the balls. Every year when the blowhards at ESPN have some rinky-dink poll about best uniform, and subsequently Im polite when discussing it with fans of other teams. They say that Bamas uni is classic and near the top but not the best, and I indulge the discussion of other teams unis or colors or whatnot. Inside however, Im thinking, or rather I know, that that crimson is sweet, son. Its legit and not to be messed wit. Its really just beautiful. To heck with all other colors except Crimson and White...and Grey sneaks in because of the facemasks. All other colors can choke on it. 5) Tennessee sucks. This is not a reason to be excited about 2014, but just a general reason to smile. 6)Well Eli, Smokey just came out of the tunnel, and hes about 100 yards away from me now, and if I had my deer rifle I believe I could drop him, back to you Eli -- Jerry Duncans comments to Eli Gold just prior to kickoff against Tennessee. 7) The barn is feelin mighty confident, and I am happy about that. Its like your black lab greeting you at the front door - its just makes you feel good. 8)Playing for the lead in the west at night in Death Valley. This is why the first pig gave his life to make the first football. Period. 9)The fact that theres a 100% chance that someone on our D decleats someone, and Verne says, Thats the hit of the year. and summarily mispronounces his name. And I will know that all is right in the world. 10)Amari Cooper. He earned it. 11)Bama being a deserved favorite to make it to the round of 4. Its a good time to be good. Playoffs, son. 12)The fact that Bama is a loaded, but flawed team, and we could lose some. 13)13 rings is more than anyone else. 14)14 rings is WAY more than anyone else. 15)15 rings. Yea, thats us. 16)And now were playing for #16. Bring it. WINNING is sweet because of the chance of defeat. I never want opposing teams good players to get hurt before the game and be unavailable for their team against us - asterisks suck and are for losers. I wanna get everyones best shot. Win, or go down in a hail of gunfire. But if somebody gets hurt on a clean shot during the game, tough sheezy. Im looking at you Colt McCoy. Next time, dont be such a baby. The Bear played with a broken leg against Tennessee and he LIKED IT. Bama this year is bad@ss, but flawed. And I cant wait. I guess I just see a bit of myself in this team - and Ill be your huckleberry. Roll Tide.
