Sorry for the trolls

  • Apparently some Bama fans feel the need to come over to your house to tell you how good Bama is. They also feel like the game doesn't need to be played and we should just skip the trip to Texas all together.

    Take it from a Bama fan who doesn't automatically count every game under the stars as a W - this game is far from a foregone conclusion.

    I think it's absurd that some of our fans feel the need to come here and stir stuff up. Good luck to you guys Saturday. Please remember, we're not all a&*holes.

  • Thanks, it should be a good game... but i'm not delusional, Bama is the better team on paper. Your fans have been spoiled the past few years, and that leads to obnoxious when in the wrong hands.

    Thanks for the apology, but it's all good. Every fan base has bad apples no matter who or where you go. It's the internet, so people do need to get thicker skin and see it coming before responding or provoking.

    As you said, nothing in sports is a guarantee or we wouldn't need to play. I'll gladly accept the underdog role since it puts us in a win-win situation no matter what happens. While the kids will have pressure like any other week 1 game/team, all the pressure is on Ala to come out and play championship caliber football right out of the gates. While I think Mich will need to play a perfect game in all aspects to win, it's not out of the realm of possibilities that we leave TX successful.

    Obviously I think your biggest advantage is in the trenches with your OL against our DL, but hopefully we can make you guys one dimensional and have the QB beat us vs the 5 big ugglies pushing the line of scrimmage the wrong way. If we can limit the time our D is on the field by getting out of there on 3rd down, I think we'll be in it late 3rd/4th quarter. If you guys get your running game going, then play action has me worried, especially if we start putting more in the box.

    On the flip side, we all know what Denard can do on the ground, I'm just interested to see his progress as a passer this year. We'll need someone other than him to step up and make plays, either on the O or D side of the ball. While I don't think it's going to be a blowout, I can see this game going either way.

    Best of luck next week since I'll be rooting for the underdog Sat night (obviously). Glad to get you guys week 1 before things really get going....

  • What I don't get is that most of the people over here aren't some of the main posters from BOL. There have been a couple of good posters but I have no freaking clue about some of these other guys. I came over looking for solid conversation but that isn't going to happen because we have people over here effing up this board.

    Don't even start that blue board crap over here. If you think standing up for racism is bad, you need to reevaluate life.

    And BTW, do you realize that you just told me that I need to reevaluate my life if I don't support racism?

    Lol, I worded that wrong. Nice catch. You knew what I meant though.

    Nah, read through that thread please. A lot of the people ITT were saying that I was ok to stay. tBB likes me for some reason.

    FWIW I don't have a problem with you guys. I have no idea why they let that stuff go on tBB anyway. Kinda pointless.

    One of our mods Buttesnake has taken a leave since that $hit happened. If not careful tBB will become just like the MB on rivals. A bunch of trolls and flames.

    I don't post on tBB that much and wasn't sure what happened to him. That sucks.

    It seems that over the last few months, a bunch of the rivals MB trash has found its way here

    Like I said tbb will be ruined just like the MB if changes are not made. I was a rival member for years, but two months ago I let my sub lapse wasnt worth it anymore. I love the UM posters and the articles on rivals, but it got to the point where I no longer went over there and just became a permanent 247 poster.

    Ditto. This is why I fight so hard (despite all the tBB backlash) because I like having a forum for all of us where we can talk about any team. If it turns into Rivals, I'm out.

    Strictly subscriber only board, not a big fan of those types.
