Seriously, who really cares about a Fathead?

Why should I cause my living room area to become cheap looking with a large sticker of LeBron James or Jeff Gordon’s car? I shouldn’t, because the product stinks.

This product does cause me to laugh simply for the fact that almost every example I found via Google showed a fathead sticker in either a small child’s room or in the middle of a metro-sexual living area.

 

 

All I know is if I wanted my couch to match the curtains, I should make sure that I have my Shaq fathead up to totally pimp my living space. Or course, I’ll just stick to my picture of Prothro’s catch for now.

 

 

Rammer Jammer Rules

If you have yet to hear the news, it seems that the Rammer Jammer cheer is under review yet again. While I don’t personally think that the cheer will ever be abolished, it is interesting to see the constant scuttlebutt over one simple cheer. Some consider it a great tradition. Others consider it to be a low class gesture by Alabama fans.

I also started to wonder about what the general unwritten rules are for our adored verses. So today I am going to give you a basic layout of what I understand to be the standard RJYH rules:

1. The Rammer Jammer cheer is to be used when Alabama wins (duh)

2. The Rammer Jammer cheer is no longer permissible during pre-game festivities for the band and fans. It is ONLY to be used during the last few minutes of a game (or the very end) when it is obvious that Alabama is going to win.

3. The Rammer Jammer cheer is fair game for other fan bases to sing back to us when they win, if they choose to do so. If we can say “We just beat the Hell outta you!”, it would be very hypocritical for Bama fans to get upset when others chant it.

4. The cheer is much more enjoyable when chanted while intoxicated (or at least with a buzz).

So there you have it, my version of the RJ rules. In the end the Rammer Jammer cheer is like the electoral college; the only people who truly like it are the winners.

Greetings Ye Merry Tide Faithful

I am attempting to blog for the first time ever. I hope you enjoy everything you see on this blog and come back!

I really do not have a format for blogging, but if I had to create one it would be the “Let us pretend I know what I’m doing” technique. I decided on the name “Tide Druid” for several reasons:

1. Tuscaloosa (my hometown) is known as the Druid City

2. Alabama football seems to be the 2nd largest religious sect in the state of Alabama (behind the Baptists of course).

3. I needed a name

So there you have it, a poorly done post. I hope to get better at this soon. I will be trying to post more often as the days go on so please come back again if you would like to.
