This is straight-up blasphemous what I’m doing to our blog.
On the day we get the wonderful, miraculous, awe-inspiring Gerald-Williams-is-eligible news, a day before the new college football season is officially and wholly christened, and three days before the Tennessee Volunteers take on UCLA in the Labor Day Lambasting, I bring you … gasp!
Basketball news?
Well, if ...

TideFan has already done a bang up job telling us all why Alabama’s gonna roll all over the orange and purple rendition of Tigers , but I can’t help but throw in my two cents. Afterall I did promise yesterday to give my Impossibly Accurate Prediction™, and I know y’all have been waiting with bated breathe to hear my thoughts on tomorrow. (Read me! Love me!)
As TideFan ...

EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!!! LOUD NOISES!!!!!
Volquest.com is reporting this afternoon that Bigfoot really does exist, that pigs fly, that life has been found in a distant solar system and that there are sane Alabama fans on our own planet.
Not really. But the news I just heard is about as believable as any of that — Gerald Williams, the 22-year-old, part man/part myth, 6-foot-4, ...

Thanks to Ian Rappaport for pointing this out .
Clemson and Alabama fans won’t be the only people Atlanta entertains this weekend. Hotlanta will also host The Black Gay Pride Celebration, complete with traffic-congesting parade.
And of course, all good things come in threes so the ATL will also welcome DragonCon, the world’s largest sci-fi/fantasy nerdfest–though to be ...

Well I don’t need to be very persuasive to convince most sane people on why Clemson will beat Bama this week. Its plain as day, Clemson is more talented, experienced, and better-coached. However, for all of you that need further convincing, here are my bulleted points on “Why Bama Loses.”
C.J. Spiller and James Davis- Two of the best running backs in the country look ...

Add one more log to the the infinitely large pile of steaming excrement that continually gets squeezed out from the buttholes that make up the NCAA. Wide receiver Brandon Gibson has been suspended for the first two games of the season for bumming a ride from a friend’s dad who is an Alabama booster. Alabama self reported the violation last year, and since Gibson redshirted last season, ...

Nearly 10 years ago to the day, I
slept on the bare dirt ground alongside Volunteer Blvd.
on a night that I’ll forever remember. It wasn’t just the fact that it was me and a bunch of buddies camping out that made it memorable. It ...
Sorry. Couldn’t come up with a snazzy title, so blatantly obvious will have to do.
Clemson linebacker and Lawrence Phillips imitator will not be suspended for the opener against the Tide. Danny Ford is God Block C has an even view of the situation…
Al C. Hemist is back at it over at Eight in the Box and let’s us know that Clemson WR Aaron Kelly is good …

As also discussed here and here , every
week we’re going to have Bama bloggers explaining why
Bama will win and why Tennessee will lose, and two Vol bloggers doing the opposite. If you’re trying to imagine what that would look like, ...

weekly SEC Pick’em for this football season. We even
will have prizes at the end! The only thing is you have to come back weekly and submit your picks. We’ll send out 12 games weekly for you to ...
Alabama now boasts the largest hat in the conference. We’re told this is going above some sort of concession stand. Man, do I hope that is case.

Gerald Williams’ time as a Vol may be nearing midnight
We’re five days from the 2008 kickoff, and the eligibility of a backup, unproven middle linebacker is dominating discussion in the Volunteer State.
Sometimes I don’t understand Vols fans, and, this time, I am in the same boat as those I don’t understand. How can we be less than a week away from what we ...

Tennessee wins because Miss Tennessee Rachel Smith is a Vols fan. ‘Nuff said.
Really? I get “Why Tennessee Wins” in the first of our weekly installments?
Um, can my answer be simply: “BECAUSE THEY’RE GOING TO SHOW UP?” No, seriously, as a Tennessee fan, it’s very easy for me to feel pretty confident about this game on Monday night given ...

As part of a weekly feature we’ll be bringing you this season where a Bama contributor will post why the Tide will win that week’s game, another Bama boy will post why Tennessee will lose, and on the other side of the coin, two Vol posters will take turns stating why Tennessee wins and Alabama loses ( Got all that? ), I have accepted the mission of posting on how and why ...

I’m sure most of you have been watching the DNC hoping that a mob of PMS-ing Clinton backers storm the stage. While The Chosen One has that race locked up, we’ll turn your attention back to more important things, like meaningless preseason polls. You’re welcome. We’ve narrowed the voters this season to contributors only. As always, feel free tell us what idiots we ...

Today, Fulmer gave the bad news that Donald Langley and Brent Vinson would not be spending their Labor Day in Southern California. The two talented backups have been suspended one game for “a class attendance violation.”
It was pretty well known that Brent Vinson had been put in the doghouse when he was surprisingly placed on the third string at the open of Fall camp. Lately, ...

Humans are a strange breed. Make something taboo, and inherently our interest is piqued. Kinda like back in the day when guys were drooling over chicks’ ankles. Such is the case with the Alabama depth chart . The preseason didn’t come with first and second teams, but with administrative groups, whatever that means. Add in the excitement from this year’s recruiting class, ...

SEC fans, say goodbye to the Three Daves of Raycom when they come to visit your town this year. This year sounds like the farewell tour for the Trainwrecked Triumvirant. ESPN has bought everything that the CBS deal didn’t cover for the measly sum of $2.25 billion. And SEC-haters, get ready for some big-time in-yo-face SEC promotion from the WWL. Judging from the amount of love ESPN ...

Found this on ESPN.com :
“We didn’t expect anything like what you have witnessed to occur,” said WTF secretary general Yang Jin-suk. “I am at a loss for words.”
The comment was in reference to Cuban Tae Kwan Do competitor Angel Matos and his “protest” of a disqualification in the bronze medal bout. His argument largely consisted of kicking the ...
