People can't stand the success at Bama for a few reasons.  It is a shame that that people still look at Bama and fans as uneducated rednecks.  For this reason they can't stand to see the success of the Tide or even other teams from the south.  A great example was yesterday on ESPN radio the guy announced that Alabama fans with all three of their teeth will  be cheering for the Tide.  Why aren't people tired of Duke Basketball winning?  Now some fans do give teams bad names by their actions.  There are fans that are not good winners and others that are even worse losers.

God has Blessed the great state of Alabama with people in Washington that makes great decisions. We have people in the State Capitol that make great decisions and then we have the big graduating classes and future NFL players because great talent comes out of Alabama. Why does the nation hate Alabama because we won't say "QUIT" like all the other people in this country. We have been as the Middle of the Bible belt. Well my only thought to give you is "ROLL TIDE ROLL." RTR!

Tell that radio guy to come down here and make that crack about 3 teeth.  When he leaves I will have 3 teeth plus however many he has.

The Clemson turds have been making inbreeding and tooth jokes all week too.  It's so cheap, unoriginal, and not to mention not even remotely true.  Especially coming from fellow southerners, it's really irritating.  I spent a month in South Carolina ten years ago...they're not any less "redneck" than Alabama.

There are Alabama fans all over the country, and the world.  Those folks will cheer for Alabama tonight.  Clemson, NOT.

Fatigue?  The attention span of Americans has diminished in recent years.  Certainly there is Alabama fatigue, and I disagree about Duke; there is Duke fatigue too.  People enjoy cheering against the powerhouse, enjoy the upset, and love predicting a rising star.

AMERICA, GET READY FOR A HUGE DOSE OF ALABAMA TONIGHT.  YOU CAN FATIGUE FOR ANOTHER YEAR!!

A few years ago I read an article (that wasn't written by anyone from Alabama BTW) that showed a survey had been done that proves that there are more engineers in the Huntsville area than anywhere else in the country except for Semi Valley, CA.  Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that engineers are highly educated, right?  ???  All I can say for sure is that there are about 4 to 6 thousand engineers in the complex I work in and they are all educated... What do we know though?  :dunno:

Huntsville has the 2nd most high tech companies in the U.S., 2nd only to the Research Triangle in North Carolina with Raleigh, Durham, & Chapel Hill.

Mark Edwards: If nation is tired of Tide, TV ratings aren't showing it http://www.annistonstar.com/sports/mark-edwards-if-nation-is-tired-of-tide-tv-ratings/article_aff165b2-b978-11e5-bc86-c7e9e4254c9b.html#.VpV6HQq5efA.twitter

According to figures provided by ESPN, Alabama's 45-40 win Monday over Clemson drew a 16.0 overnight rating. That's the third-highest rating garnered by ESPN across all sports. It beat the BCS National Championship Game finals for the 2011, 2012 and 2013 seasons but didn’t beat the first College Football Playoff final last year, which drew an 18.5 for Ohio State’s win over Oregon. Auburn’s win over Oregon in the BCS final capping the 2010 season drew a 16.1.

I have ESPN but don't think the championship game should be restricted to pay TV, cutting out those who can't afford it. The Super Bowl isn't.
