Enjoying it while it lasts. Those of you who were lucky enough to grow up with both the Bear and CNS .. Tip of the hat. I hope to see another Bear/CNS in my lifetime.

While it wasn't as dominate, the Stallings years were a lot of fun as well.

I'm hoping for a fourth run under a different coach during my lifetime. What's crazy is there is still a small group out there who were toddlers during our runs in the early part of last century.

I was a kid during the Stalling era but wasnt even a glint in my pops eye during Coach Bryant's days. This era is definitely something special for the people my age.

You could argue that Coach Bryant could've put out alot more if his scheme had led to it. He incorporated the wishbone which split more carries between as many as 7-8 backs a game. He didn't throw the ball all over the yard either.

Saw this Tide-bit over on BOL.

Since 1989 the Aubie's have had fewer first round picks than Bama has had in the last three years.

Just because I like picking on the B1G.
