🏈 From WV fan site: The Ebb Of The Tide: Alabama Is Dead (And Here's Why)

[TerryP]

—Now I'm not saying the Tide will immediately fold and begin coughing up 8-4 hairballs. They'll win 10 and quite likely 11 games as they spend most of their time in the top 10 and continue to beat overmatched opponents. Nick Saban has built a masterful recruiting machine that will keep his squad well stocked for some time. But the cracks are showing. Alabama lost out to Kentucky (KENTUCKY!) for a football recruit, and with the departure of Tide offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier for Michigan, Lane Kiffin (LANE KIFFIN!) has become the head guy in Tuscaloosa.

These are not the trappings of dominance.

No, the reality is that we've seen this movie before. The run was impressive, but like all dynasties that have come and gone, the Tide suffered a lapse of immortality that provided the slight opening the rest of us needed to imagine a world without BAMA, and once broken that magic is impossible to reclaim. Their Moment has come, their wings have been clipped and they are now left to walk amongst the mortals.

The Roll is over.

The Smoking Musket.

That recruit we lost to UK came stepped onto campus this summer weighing nearly 400 lbs. Not too huge of a loss since clearly with our depth he'd have to be redshirted.

 

[TheChief]

When the WV fans have visited the lofty perches of celestial heights I'll listen. Until then, all I hear is wishful thinking.

 

[XXL TideFan]

Go burn a damn couch and leave football to the SEC, Bama specifically

If you look at it one way, it is a huge loss.
Not all the delusional fans are at Lee County Trade School.

He can't even spell LAINE KIFKINS name right. Good emphasis, though.

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

That "moment" musky smoke mentions has spanned nearly a century with only a few periods of "low tide".
I appreciate that motivational speech.
BTW, the ROLL is still ROLLing!!!

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!

Is he trying to give the WV team some kind of talk?:headscratch:

 

[BamaFan334]

It amazes me how the envy of so many continues to leak into public with their puny words of hatred. I simply can't get over the jealousy. I'm sure folks are tired of hearing our name and seeing us as a team to beat, but I am willing to bet they wouldn't be singing this tune if it were their team in our position.

 

[BigAl]

Just another smack talker, their jealous cause we're Alabama and they are just another meaningless turd. Don't let it upset you.

I didn't know they had internet in W.V. To post such idiotic comments.

They think the internet is a new thing and not too many people will read it.

 

[alabama mike]

@mhardiman , I live about 40 minutes from Huntington and when I was over there a few weeks ago, W.V. just received 10 cent pay phones. In fact, I had to explain to someone how to dial an actual number. LOL

 

[mhardiman]

So West Virginians are not accustomed to anything but "Mary Joe; can you connect me to Billy Bob?" All in a Mountain Man (Duck Dynasty) slang.

 

[alabama mike]

I think it's a fake article.

 

[JoshB]

^ Its def. not fake, the author even defends it in the comment section.

 

[rick4bama]

Let not forget that our coach is from this place.

 

[XXL TideFan]

If you wanna make fun of a group of people, yankees and west coasters are the target groups. Southrons should not mock each other or rural folks. Yankees regardless of location are preferred.

 

[c5vetman]

Saban is from there, and not all people from redneck states are that way. We all know what kind of stigma the state of Alabama has - my wife will never let me live it down, even though she has no room to brag about anything...but we aren't all like Updike


Anyway, to make fun of us for hiring Kiffin is insane, he has always been one of the best OC's in the business...
