[quote]In public, he'll be forever known as the guy who ran away for a few days and I wouldn't want that at my school. It is and will be seen as irresponsible. [/quote]
Fire him? Overreact much? Did you get abandoned as a child or something to make you so super sensitive? The guy is an adult. ...

re: 7 Things I Can Do That My Black Son Can’t
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 12/28/14 at 1:50 pm
I've been teaching elementary school in South Alabama for 21 years. I've always made it a real point of emphasis to teach my children about slavery and black history. Every year I've expounded on the leadership of Dr. King, the bravery of Ruby Bridges, the resolve of Rosa Parks and the genius and pa...
re: Saban is pissed that people complain about a 14-13 win
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 10/14/14 at 7:20 pm
I completely agree with your post. I'm old and was at the University when Coach Bryant was still coaching. I've seen a lot of Alabama football, and I know that we're in a completely amazing time for our football program.
Games like the Arkansas game are maddening in a way because of the mistake...

re: Sims will start
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 8/30/14 at 1:08 pm
What is the exact description of an Alabama quarterback? McElroy certainly wasn't given superstar billing and worked out very well as a NC "game manager". I'd LOVE to see Blake Sims have a fantastic game, and a great season. He's done nothing to be denied the start, and obviously has a lot of pos...
re: Are public schools still the great equalizer?
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 8/6/14 at 11:38 pm
I'm very much in favor of anything that helps our students, and I believe magnet schools do that. The best and brightest have the right to attend a school that targets their ability levels and interests and reduces the distractions of bad behavior and/or apathy....

As a public school teacher in a high poverty rural area, I agree with your statement that zip code determines education quality. Generally speaking, you can put the same teacher in four different zip codes and get four different student progress results. School begins for us next week. I literall...

I know this opinion isn't very popular with a lot of folks, but I'm a teacher and a mom who's so old I was at UA when Coach Bryant was still there. I know kids make mistakes and all of the other arguments, but COME ON! When you're in this kind of position with the potential these guys have, listen...
re: Auburn's Philip Lutzenkirchen killed in car accident
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 6/29/14 at 12:27 pm
Prayers sent to the Lutzenkirchen family and his Auburn family. He was an awesome player on the field and I've always heard he made really good life choices off the field. So sad to hear that he lost his life. God bless his family....

re: Most beloved player for each SEC school
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 6/23/14 at 11:36 am
These are my favorites, not necessarily who I think are fanbase favorites:
Alabama Offense: Joe Namath, John Hannah, Julio Jones, (the consummate team player) Defense: Cornelius Bennett, Courtney Upshaw, Rolando McClain (so wish he could've kept it together in the NFL)
Honorable mention: J...
re: Which SEC team would you not root for no matter the circumstances?
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 6/23/14 at 9:44 am
Auburn. I've seriously tried rooting for them a couple of times, but I've never made it through a whole game. As I heard someone express it once . . I wish I could bottle the feeling I get when Auburn loses. No, really.
I'm definitely a homer and will actively "gump" for any SEC team, but my ...
re: Things you love about tUniversity of Alabama
Posted by CrimsonWhite on 6/16/14 at 12:09 pm
I love the traditions of The University of Alabama. I love the band playing Yea, Alabama! on the quad. I love Denny Chimes. I love how The University has grown and has built so many new buildings, and that every single one of them has added to the beauty of our campus. I love going down to River W...

Posted by CrimsonWhite on 6/16/14 at 11:25 am
As an Alabama alumnus, I worked in Hargis Hall and Samford Hall back in the 80's. I love those buildings. They're truly beautiful.
What I don't like about The Family is the air of moral superiority they try to portray. When Auburn stops recruiting qbs who've been dismissed from other programs...

Of those you mentioned, only JFF is a Heisman contender for this season. I would never try to make a case against Manziel. I was at the A&M game in Tuscaloosa last year. Guy is a...
