How about...

Putting the barn in its proper place to close the book on a perfect regular season always lifts the Bama faithful into the empyrean.

I lol'd.

After spending seven wondrous years in the state of Alabama, never in my life have I seen fans, who claim to be loyal to one team, spend more time AUbsessing over the other more so than they do their very own.

I always laugh when I see that photo.

I imagine the Aubbie either putting on an oxygen mask, smoking a blunt or sipping on some Courvoisier. Just look at the relaxed pose.

Auburn and Tennessee fans are a lot like Slinkys...neither are worth much but you do get a sense of satisfaction from pushing them down a flight of stairs
