🏈 Looks like Kenny Bell is hanging them up...

PhillyGirl · Sep 3, 2013

I really respect him for his choice. It can't be easy to leave the sport you love, the coaches and teammates you worked with, more potential greatness, etc. But in the end he had to do what was best for him and his family.

Last year, I had a 'Bama collage on my wall and Bell was in it, catching a pass. He really had a good career, with some really exciting plays. I wish him the all the best in his future.

BAMA JAMMA · Sep 3, 2013

Hate to hear this! Best of luck to him.

psychojoe · Sep 3, 2013

Good luck to Kenny. He was always one of my favorites.

As far as a "mass exodus" at receiver, we've already seen Shinn, Woodson, now Bell. I doubt it gets much beyond that. If one of our guys would rather go somewhere else for PT than stay and compete for it with us, so be it.

Source tells @JFowlerCBS that Bell might be reversing his decision.

Rumor (so take it fwiw) is that Fanning is next.

I'm not a tweeter...whatever, so I'm not seeing what was fast. I don't see anything in there that looks like a recant. Or is there something else I am supposed to be seeing?

I was saying "that was fast" in regards to you saying he may be reversing his decision. Since the news that he left the team just broke a few hours ago.

I just posted his Twitter link so folks could see the nice stuff fans have been saying in support of him :tickled_pink:

EDIT: Just realized my sig photo has him in it .. I forgot I even had that photo there. It's still a beaut!

BAMA JAMMA · Sep 3, 2013

So Sabah said he spent the say with Kenny and he will be practicing tomorrow and that they ironed out some issues. Said hes not going to talk about it more. sounds like maybe playing time? Now he's pissed off at te media about to rip into them lol

BAMA JAMMA · Sep 3, 2013

Wooooo Saban is PISSED! So much for people thinking he was going soft lol

TerryP · Sep 3, 2013

I'll leave this conversation on this note.

It's my opinion Kenny needs to "nut up."

It Takes Eleven · Sep 3, 2013

Even Rudy got a personal day...

...very happy he's staying. He makes us a better team.

PhillyGirl · Sep 3, 2013

Dang, the announcement was just made 4 hours ago lol. What the heck? Hope he knows what he's doing, and that he is choosing what is best for him.

Saban:

 [FONT=&quot]“Kenny Bell, I gave a personal day today, he should be back to practice tomorrow. Kenny’s a fifth-year senior. He’s done a great job in this program. He’s play a lot of good football for us. He’s made a lot of big plays. He’s been a good teammate to a lot of guys on the team and is certainly somebody that I have a tremendous amount of respect for as a competitor. Sometimes we have personal things we need to iron out and today he had a day to do that. There were some personal things he needed to iron out, I think he talked to his family about. I talked to his mom and we talked again today. I want Kenny to be happy. I’d love for him to be a part of the team if he can be happy doing that relative to any other personal responsibilities he has.” [/FONT]

All is well, I hope Bell has a terrific season.

PhillyGirl · Sep 3, 2013

10AJMcCarron:

So glad one of my best friends I've ever had & will for life @TheKennyBell7 is back with me this season! Wouldn't be the same w/o him

EDIT: Check out AJ's twitter pics .. Him as a little kid!

I swear I'm not a Twitter freak, I just like following athletes and sports stuff!

bamaraider · Sep 3, 2013

Well that was strange.

BAMA JAMMA · Sep 3, 2013

I don't know how to embed a tweet but this from HaHA

“@HaHa_CD6: Jk I'm glad Big bro had time to sit down and think and make one of the biggest decisions in his life great Choice @TheKennyBell7”

Bamabww · Sep 4, 2013

Isn't life strange
A turn of the page
Can read like before
Can we ask for more?
Each day passes by
How hard man will try? (Moody Blues)

We'll soon know if his heart is still in it. I wish him the best and hope he has everything worked out so he can be happy with his situation, whatever it is.
