10-4 MSDawg, Just seems that most folks who keep bringing the Bear and all of Bama's glorious past are usually the ones who dislike Bama the most. I am just as proud of Alabama's rich history as anyone but also rarely bring it up. I know that in college football as in just about all of sports nowadays its a "what have you done for me lately" culture. Just look at former San Diego coach Marty Schottenhiemer. Leads the team to a 14-2 record yet still gets fired. You know in 1963 Tom Landry coach of the Dallas Cowboys was coming off 3 straight horrible losing seasons, yet the owner and the GM had enough faith and confidence in him that they re-signed him to a 10 year contract. How many coaches nowadays EVER get a 10 year contract even if they are winning much less if they have been losing.
I guess it was a different time with different people. We all know how he turned out.

good. The hotter the better."

Within seconds, the air becomes chilly and frost appears, soon followed by
solid ice everywhere.
