I'm sure this has nothing to do with your team not being in the playoff.

Ironically, there's a crazy lot of UF fans who say it all went to crap around 2010 or so.

Bama is no longer allowed to be the only team buying talent with no repercussions and suddenly Gumps think the sport is dead.




Hilarious

It’s called a level playing field. Some teams always got away with paying players under the table. And stockpiling bluechip athletes. Now they have lost their footing. They can’t keep talented players on the bench. The NCAA fought this battle for you and lost. This is why Saban left when he did. He lost his advantage. Time to find out about the loyalty of sidewalk fans.

Programs with more money than you can now buy players legally, and you’re acting like a fricking crybaby.

Good luck.

You don’t have to make an official announcement, lol. Just do what most of us are and care less than you normally would. Don’t invest as much into it emotionally.

Bama fans are losing their shite because they can’t stockpile the lions share of talent by giving them dodge chargers and free houses for their family. Everyone can pay now and it’s killing them that they’re gonna fall behind

Guess he did care. Anyway, Alabama doesn't make the playoffs and this Bama fan "doesn't care any more."

Sums up the Bama sidewalk fan base to a tee.

Yea, Bama fans aren't used to other schools being able to pay players and get away with it. It was fine when only a few select schools could break the rules like Bama.

Honestly, i hear you

If what you say is true and not just a knee jerk thing

Truth is, you can still follow CFB w/o an attachment to a particular team

Not easy, but it comes with time. And you will still feel something different when it comes to Bama

Only way to change it is to go back to true amateur athletics like it’s the 1890’s and you have club teams full of white dudes playing for the love of the game.

It’s a tough reality to accept, but I don’t think you’re far off base here.

But this is some whiny shite. Every other SEC fanbase has survived shite bowls before. Now it’s your turn, and you can’t handle it?
