This coming from someone with an Orange Fur...BR your incorrigible. You haven't seen my car lately have you? I have new one to add now! 😀:floor:You are a hoot!
Bite Me! Yes, I guess Florida fans would have been sweet little angels and would have kept their mouths closed and not have gotten excited at all about it. Give me a break!
I am fine. I am wonderful actually. It feels great to be back on top. I am going to go now, wouldn't want anyone to think I was incorrigible or anything.
p.s. I hope Colt recovers and will be ok. We still would have won even if he had not been injured.
ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!!!
Did you buy a crimson-colored car? Or is it upholstered in black-and-white houndstooth? I asked hubby if I could special-order an orange BMW. He just looked at me like I was a ball of wackadoo.:funn:That being said, my sister bought an orange Mini Cooper with a blue denim convertible top. She drives that instead of the S550! I think she is incorrigible as well. ;-)
I never see what Florida fans do to be incorrigible because I'm the only obnoxious Florida fan in these parts. :( I have never been guilty of trying to paint the driveway orange after a big Florida win. :lie:
Congrats, gull! I know from experience that it's really funn when your team wins!

What turned me off Alabama is all of the flags on cars in this town. OMC! Then yesterday I was behind a pick-up truck with flags, about two dozen Alabama stickers/magnets, and a houndstooth decoration on the tow hitch. That took me over the SEC-loyalty edge.
I'm going nitey-nite. Alabama will win because Colt was injured. We'll never know what the outcome would have been if Colt had not been injured. Congrats, Alabama fans. Still love ya, Darlene.
Hold on there now BR! Colt didn't fall over and hurt his shoulder on his own. Bama's big D knocked him out of the game. It wasn't a dirty hit or anything.So I don't think its right to say Bama won ,Colt was injured.

Hey Darlene, I was picking up a pizza and saw these Alabama goodies in the waiting area. Houndstooth handbags, jewelry, and even my favorite :roll:, a zebra bag in with crimson trim. They also have Auburn, Georgia, and Georgia Tech items. :wave:

:rofl: Y'all are too funny.
It was a good game. I was happy to see Bama win; felt bad for McCoy, happy for Ingram. Gators still finish No. 3 and Urban is still around and even with his stress, he is mercifully nothing like Jim Leavitt. Life is good. Congrats Bama fans!

Bama to display trophy at ......Walmart
From ESPN.com:
"
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- The University of Alabama is going to display its new national championship football trophy at a place where most anyone can see it: Walmart.
The school says the Coaches' Trophy will be on display at a Walmart Supercenter in Tuscaloosa on Saturday and another Walmart store in Gardendale on Sunday.
Fans will be able to get their picture taken with the actual Coaches' Trophy that was presented after the BCS win over Texas. The $30,000 trophy is topped with a football made of Waterford Crystal.
The school will permanently display the trophy on campus. The Walmart stops are part of a sponsorship deal.

Heh heh...hope security is tight, unlike one school I know, whose NC trophies would up in the home of a gator fan in Fort Walton Beach. :roll: Can't remember if we got both of them back or if we had to order a new one...

Love them. I am very easy to buy for. My Alabama Christmas gifts: 2 purses, long sleeve shirt, Socks, ANOTHER sticker for my CRIMSON car, yes I bought it because of the color, 2 hats, a hoodie, and a insulated glass for my beer. It was good. I seriously cannot tell you how many Alabama shirts/sweatshirts I have. I have lost count. Sometime I will have to take a picture of my "Alabama Sofa Table" with all my other Bama stuff on it. Roll Tide!

I wondered how long it would take for the Alabama Redneck sheet to start flowing. Whatever. :roll: At least we have a trophy to display, for the 13th time I might add. Bring it on. This Redneck Alabama Girl can take it! ROLL TIDE!

Hey, Darlene, maybe this year, but the Tide has only rolled over the Gators once in the past 10 years.;-)
More like 4 times in the past 10 years:
1999: Twice (Gainesville, reg. season, 40-39; Atlanta, SECCG, 34-7)
2005: Tuscaloosa, UA 31, reg. season
2009: Atlanta, SECCG, 32-13
As for the houndstooth items like the ones you photographed, the irony is that my wife is an AUB grad and huge AUB fan, but she has a side business selling embroidered gift items like scarves, market tote baskets, etc., and this year, the biggest sellers have been the houndstooth items. She claims that she wore one of the HT scarves while watching the game in ATL Thursday night; she was there for Market.

BTW daughter's engagement party was last night. One of our best friends arrived in a fabubous Chanel houndstooth jacket, Chanel booties, and Chanel from head to toe. I teased her about being in houndstooth. She is from Alabama, but didn't get it. :floor:

Well, the two teams had only met and played each other twice in the SECCG in the years that you listed above: 2008 & 2009, and the record was 1-1. I didn't see any reference in your earlier post limiting it to SECCG meetings. Sure, Bama had some droughts against AUB and LSU in recent years, but not Florida.
