How about that Tide?????


Ladies and Gentlemen, FINALLY!!! The Tide looks great this year. I have had to endure so much mockery and criticism about the team my family cheers for. Thank goodness I live in Mississippi and they have three really terrible football teams. Otherwise, life would have been almost unbearable these past few years. My husband is so hard on Alabama's team each week. He loves them but calls them losers and girls. I know that he is only saying it because he just wants them to do their best. It isn't enough to him that they win, he also wants for them to beat whomever they are playing by at least 3 touch downs. Well not me. I say that as long as they win, I am proud of them. In fact, I am proud of them even if they lose. Twenty years from now no one is going to say "Hey, Alabama barely beat LSU." or "Alabama was barely number 1." When swimmers compete in the olympics they only win by mere seconds but they still get the gold baby!!!!!!! That is all that matters. I am not boasting because they may very well get beaten in the weeks to come. That will be o.k. because I know that they have worked so hard and I think it has finally started to pay off. Auburn fans---go easy on Bama. You all have had your time to shine. Just let us have this one year to enjoy being on top!!!!! After all, we are from the same wonderful state. Can't we all just get along???

Wasn't that a great win!? Maybe this is finally the year. Even Ben {who says he is an Auburn fan} has been pullin' hard for the Tide this year. {And Micah can't stand it when he thinks Ben is pullin for "The Big Boys."} I think he really is coming around, even if he doesn't want to admit it yet. ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!

Well, Well... Do I sense a humble spirit, Rebecca Taylor? I'm so proud! I'm sure your husband does not share the same feeling! I can say this is the first time I have been happy yall are in Mississippi! I can just hear yall now....sooo how bout those tigers? Well, the last 6 years I have done very little bragging because I knew this day would come and I didn't want to get ragged. So thank you! I can't say the same about Brad! He want shut up! He is a terd! Anyway, Congratulations to the Tide and WAR EAGLE(through the good times and the bad)!!!

I was so happy for yall when I saw that Alabama had won that game. It sure was close there at the end. I was afraid that they were going to get beaten. Mississippi teams are not that bad!!!
