Sweet Home Alabama . . .

So, much to our disappointment, Alabama just won the National Championship. Uggh. You may wonder why people from Alabama don't want Alabama to win . . . well, you kinda have to be from here to understand. But, as self-respecting Auburn fans . . . we root for Auburn and ANYONE who plays Alabama. I know, we should cheer for the SEC (they have 4 straight titles) but . . . as a true fan . . . you just can't do it when it is Alabama . . . and Saban . . . It ended up being a pretty good game to watch if you saw the 1st and 4th quarters . . . the misery lies in the fact that Colin (since he works) will have to endure Alabama banter for 365 days (at least). At halftime I just was hoping for a good game. I mean, really, I stayed up to watch this?? Auburn should have beaten Alabama in the Iron Bowl . . . uggghhh! I do have a number of friends that paid and made the trip to Pasadena - so at least they are having fun right? I will give props to Alabama for having red Gatorade in the cooler (rather than lemon-lime). Happy 13 to U of A! See you next November! Saban . . . as a Dallas Cowboys Coach - would be HOT!!!! (as a side note . . . I just don't get the reason to hold up 4 fingers at the start of the 4th quarter . . . um . . .EVERYONE knows it is the 4th quarter! It is like basketball when the coaches and players yell (NO FOULS!!!) really?? I mean, after years and years of playing the game - don't you know not to foul? Did I mention that RED is SOOO not my color?
Another side note: If Alabama played USC (i.e. Cali) I would have cheered for Alabama
UPDATE: Seriously, people are shooting off FIREWORKS! I suppose left over from NYE? They better not wake up my BABY!! The real question is how many PAGES will Alabama get in the newspaper?? Yesterday it was a good 20 pages according to Colin . . . Tomorrow - likely 40+
