Shula says Hudson will play in Iron Bowl

By Anna Maria Della Costa
Sports Writer
November 21, 2003



TUSCALOOSA | Ray Hudson will dress out and play in the Iron Bowl on
Saturday, University of Alabama coach Mike Shula said after practice on
Thursday.

The Crimson Tide running back was arrested last week and charged with
misdemeanor possession of marijuana.

The junior from Bonifay, Fla., did not dress for last weekend's game against
LSU.

As far as discipline, we'll handle that in-house and not make it public,
Shula said.

Hudson is the team's second-leading rusher with 419 yards on 83 carries this
season.

He is averaging 4.9 yards a carry and has one touchdown this season.

Guess I better pack some rump roast sauce.

But, thank you and I hope everyone has a great week

2003-11-21 Thread Mike Laborde
Beautifully written by Jeff Cooper! Take the time to read it all. It's GREAT!


==
THIS IS ALABAMA FOOTBALL!

It is Wallace Wade. It is Paul Bear Bryant.  It is not Bill Curry.  It Is 
The Rose Bowl.  It is hearing Keith Jackson call an Alabama game.

It is Watching George Teague running down Lamar Thomas in the 1993 Sugar 
Bowl, then rewinding it and watching it again. It is hearing the first notes 
of Sweet Home Alabama. Sorry UAB  Auburn, but that isn't your song.

It is the desire to beat Auburn at any competitive event that exists. It is 
the houndstooth hat. It is having enough pride to fight for your school but 
having enough class not to.

It is cheering the same amount for a first down on 2nd  6 As on 4th  1.  
It is watching Cornelius Bennett give Notre Dame QB Steve Beuerlein a 
concussion on that October day in Birmingham in 1986.

It is determining whom you are going to date  marry by which team they 
swear allegiance to.  It is watching The Bear on the Jumbotron in 
Bryant-Denny Stadium and almost seeing him leaning against the goalpost. It 
is opening a day at the Bryant Museum  still not seeing everything.

It is cool crisp autumn Saturdays where you can smell football in the air  
feel it with the slightest breeze.

It is watching The Bear get #315 against Auburn (how appropriate).  It is 
watching The Bear get #323 against Illinois.   It is hearing Paul Kennedy 
call the play-by-play as Van Tiffin kicks the 52-yd game winning field goal 
against Auburn in 1985.

It is knowing all year long how many days until the start of the season.  It 
is driving down Colonial Drive to see Bryant-Denny Stadium, not the sorority 
girls, although some may disagree.

It is getting chills up  down your entire body whenever you hear anything 
about the 1993 Sugar Bowl  the pride you feel because on that night, 
TRADITION
RULED.

It is hearing Coach Bryant's voice  having all the hair on the back of your 
neck stand straight up because you know that no matter what he said, it was 
something special.

It is hearing The Million Dollar Band play Yea Alabama and knowing it just 
  doesn't get any better.

It is imagining hearing Penn State QB Chuck Fusina ask Alabama linebacker 
Barry Krauss How close is it?  hearing Barry say About an inch, you'd 
better pass right before 4th down during The Goal Line Stand in the 1979 
Sugar Bowl.

It is almost coming to tears whenever Alabama loses to Auburn or Tennessee.

It is The Kick. It is The Goal Line Stand. It is The Desperation Block.

It is purposely not wearing any clothes with the colors orange  blue.

It is the 3rd Saturday in October.

It is not needing an alarm clock on game days.  You sit straight up in bed 
long before it goes off, knowing its game day.  You can sleep after the bowl 
game.

It is walking into the stadium with the feeling that Alabama will win the 
game, simply because that is the way it is supposed to be.  It is saying 
Offense wins games, defense wins national titles.

It is the Bear Bryant A.  It is walking into the stadium hours before the 
game just to be there.  It is walking into another school's stadium  having 
those fans hate you because you're a Bama fan.

It is the pride that a father has when he brings his children to a game so 
they may cherish the tradition.

It is beating LSU in Baton Rouge.  It is hearing the crunch as a crimson 
clad  linebacker takes down a running back dressed in orange  blue.  It is 
the pride you take in being EVERY team's rival.

It is pulling for any team that's playing Auburn.  It is pulling for any 
team that's playing Tennessee.  It is hoping that the stadium blows up when 
Auburn plays Tennessee.

It is knowing that the SEC Championship is a birthright.  It is being 
respected,  feared at the same time.

It is holding up four fingers at the end of the 3rd quarter.

It is knowing what Mama Called means.

It is having 20 SEC Championships.

It is having 12 National Championships.

It is more than I can ever mention in these few paragraphs. It is class.  It 
is tradition.

IT IS ALABAMA FOOTBALL.

-

THIS IS AUBURN FOOTBALL 


It is Bobby Lowder It is Terry Tiny Bowden. It is not Bear Bryant. It is 
the Poulon Weed-Eater Bowl It is hearing Bob Kesling call a 10:30am game.

It is watching Pat Dye running down Terry Bowden in the 1997 season, then 
hearing him do it again for half of the 1998 season.

It is ommy Tubberville saying Wild horses would have to drag me away from 
Ole Miss.

It is hearing the first notes of Money Talks. Sorry Tennessee  Miami, but 
that isn't your song.

It is the desire to beat anybody at any competitive event that exists in Div 
II.

It is the dunce hat.

It is having enough pride to fight for your date but not having enough class 
to leave your sister alone.

It is cheering the same amount for a first down on 2nd  6 as on the ref's 
yellow flag.  It is watching Gabe Gross give Alabama DL Kindal

 A little boy got on the bus, sat next to a
 man reading a book, and noticed
 he
 had his collar on backwards. The little boy
 asked why he wore his collar
 that
 way. The man, who was a priest, said,  I am
 a Father.
 
 The little boy replied, My Daddy doesn't
 wear his collar like that.
 
 The priest looked up from his book and
 answered I am the Father of many.
 
 The boy said, My Dad has 4 boys, 4 girls
 and two grandchildren and he
 doesn't
 wear his collar that way.
 
 The priest, getting impatient, said, I am

Syphilis increase sparks AIDS concerns
By Steve Mitchell
United Press International
Published 11/20/2003 5:20 PM

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- Syphilis rates rose dramatically for the second
straight year in the United States, particularly among gay and bisexual men,
a finding that has health officials worried about an increase in HIV/AIDS
cases in the coming years.
Overall, the U.S. syphilis rate rose by 9 percent between 2001 and 2002, the
second consecutive increase from an all-time low in 2000, according to
figures released Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
in Atlanta.
The bulk of the increase occurred among men, rising by about 27 percent
overall, including a staggering increase of more than 85 percent among white
men and a nearly 36 percent increase among Latino men. Information on sexual
orientation is often not collected by health departments but the CDC
estimates 40 percent of the increase was in gay and bisexual men.
The total number of syphilis cases increased from 6,100 to more than 6,800,
but CDC officials think this probably is only the tip of the iceberg because
many cases go undiagnosed.
The overall number is probably significantly higher, Dr. John Douglas,
director of the CDCs division of sexually transmitted diseases, said during
a teleconference about the new figures, which appear in the Nov. 21 issue of
CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
The rise in syphilis infections indicates a growing number of gay and
bisexual men are having unprotected sex, which worries health officials
because the men could be spreading other diseases, including HIV/AIDS.
The problem is not just limited to the United States. Several other
countries, including the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia and
several countries in western Europe have also reported increases of syphilis
and other diseases among gay and bisexual men and in many of these there are
high levels of HIV co-infection, said Dr. Ronald O. Valdiserri, deputy
director of CDC's HIV, sexually transmitted diseases and tuberculosis
prevention center.
Valdiserri said there is no clear evidence HIV cases are increasing yet in
the United States, but we are extremely concerned about that possibility.
He noted a study released in July at the National HIV Prevention Conference
in Atlanta found rates of diagnosis with HIV infection were up by 17 percent
among men who have sex with men. This does not necessarily represent new
cases, however, so it is difficult to determine if the HIV infection rate
actually is increasing, but we're very concerned about that increase
because it wasn't observed in other risk groups, Valdiserri said.
Heightening concern further is the fact that syphilis increases the risk of
HIV transmission by two to five times, because the genital sores caused by
syphilis serve as portals of entry for the AIDS virus, Douglas said. In
addition, a recent study found HIV viral load increases when a person has
syphilis, suggesting he or she may be more contagious.
Sue Blank, assistant commissioner at the Bureau of Sexually Transmitted
Disease Control at the New York City Department of Health and Mental
Hygiene, said she is worried about syphilis increases -- with 434 cases in
2002, New York had the most of any U.S. city -- because they could translate
into an increase in HIV/AIDS infections.
Certainly, the concern for us is the syphilis outbreaks are going to be
heralding increases in HIV, Blank said.
The CDC is now mobilizing efforts to battle the syphilis problem and
officials are confident that prevention strategies can help keep the disease
in check. Although syphilis increased in gay and bisexual men, education and
intensified testing efforts appear to have resulted in a decline in cases
among African-American men and a 19-percent drop among women overall --
including nearly a 22-percent decrease in African-American females.
However, prevention strategies will need to be tailored to the gay community
to keep the disease in check in that population, Valdiserri said.
Although the factors driving the increase among gay and bisexual men are
multi-factorial -- not due to one single cause -- some of the reasons
include a relaxed attitude about sexually transmitted diseases. This is due
to the introduction of medications that can keep AIDS in check, Valdiserri
said. Other reasons include substance abuse and emerging venues that
facilitate unprotected sex including the Internet, he added.
Blank noted when her department interviewed a number of gay and bisexual men
in 2002 about their sexual habits, it found recruiting sexual partners over
the Internet was a common practice, including among those infected with
syphilis.
Blank's group also found, however, men infected with syphilis were much more
likely to report HIV infection than those not infected with syphilis. In
addition, syphilis-infected men were more likely to report unprotected anal
intercourse, attending private sex parties, use of illicit drugs and

MITCH ALBOM: Better to sit in jail than miss the game 

November 21, 2003

BY MITCH ALBOM
FREE PRESS COLUMNIST

The judge called it the most unusual request I've ever had. 

The defense attorney said, I've never heard anything like it. 
Even the crook admits he never tried anything this brazen. 
Then again, it is Michigan-Ohio State weekend. 
The first thing he wanted me to do, said defense attorney Tully
Rogers, was to get him out on bond so he could watch the game. He
promised to come right back. I said, 'I don't think the judge is gonna
go for that. Maybe we can come up with something else.'  

What's a crook to do? Jeff Renne, up on forgery charges, thought about
the bad checks he'd written. He thought about the punishment, two years
in prison. But mostly, he thought about -- as most sports fans do -- the
TV reception. 

And he made up his mind. 
I am guilty, your honor, he told the judge. He then said he would
accept his sentencing, right there, on the spot, if the judge would
grant him one request: 

Let him stay in the local jail through the weekend, rather than send him
to the pre-prison reception center. 

The local jail has television. 
The center does not. 

And Renne -- before going up the river -- wanted to watch the game.

[RollTideFan] Barn joke

2003-11-21 Thread Steven Johnson
A first grade teacher explains to her class that she
is a Barner. She asks her students to raise their
hands if they are Barn fans too.

Not really knowing what a Barner was, but wanting to
be liked by their teacher, their hands fly into the
air. There is, however, one exception.

A little girl named Jane has not gone along with the
crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be
different.

Because I'm not a Barner she reports.

Then, asks the teacher, what are you?

I'm a proud Crimson Tide fan the girl said!

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face
slightly red. She asks Jane, Why are you a Crimson
Tide Fan?

Well, my Dad and Mom are Tide fans, so I'm a Tide
fan, too, she responds.

The teacher is angry now. That's no reason, she says
loudly. What if your mom was a moron, and your dad
was an idiot. What would you be then?

Jane smiles and says, Then I'd be a Barner to.

[RollTideFan] Will Iran Strike 1st? (non-Bama serious)

2003-11-21 Thread Mike Laborde


http://wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=35759


Ijaz said a warlord who controls Afghanistan's western provinces, Gulbuddin Hektmayer, 
is working with al-Qaida on a plan to
bring a large army of Iranian Revolutionary Guard troops into Afghanistan during the 
winter months to attack U.S. interests
and to try to take control of the entire country. 

Iran does not want to see us succeed in building a democracy in Afghanistan under any 
circumstances, he said. 

In short, according to Ijaz, Iranian technology is now being used to help the Afghan 
warlords to take over the country from
Hamid Karzai, the Afghan president. 


-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 

Serious stuff here. No shit. 

What if Iran actually does invade the US and Afghan troops in Afghanistan? We will 
have no choice but to repel them then
invade Iran to clean it out. 

The world still has to get more dangerous before it gets safer for our kids  
grandkids. 9/11/2001 was not the beginning of
all this. It began many years earlier even before 11 Israelis were killed at the 1973 
Olympic games. It went large-scale when
Iraq took US hostages. There were many air problems  disasters due to terrorism in 
the 80's and early 90's. During the
majority of the 90's we had our heads in the sand about terrorism. 9/11/2001 brought 
it home to us. That day was not the
beginning of our war. It was the beginning of the end of our war. We must take the 
fight to every one of the bastards and
kill them. 

Evil exists, people. We must fight to win.

 MITCH ALBOM: Better to sit in jail than miss the game

 November 21, 2003

 BY MITCH ALBOM
 FREE PRESS COLUMNIST

 The judge called it the most unusual request I've ever had.

 The defense attorney said, I've never heard anything like it.
 Even the crook admits he never tried anything this brazen.
 Then again, it is Michigan-Ohio State weekend.
 The first thing he wanted me to do, said defense attorney Tully
 Rogers, was to get him out on bond so he could watch the game. He
 promised to come right back. I said, 'I don't think the judge is gonna
 go for that. Maybe we can come up with something else.' 

 What's a crook to do? Jeff Renne, up on forgery charges, thought about
 the bad checks he'd written. He thought about the punishment, two years
 in prison. But mostly, he thought about -- as most sports fans do -- the
 TV reception.

 And he made up his mind.
 I am guilty, your honor, he told the judge. He then said he would
 accept his sentencing, right there, on the spot, if the judge would
 grant him one request:

 Let him stay in the local jail through the weekend, rather than send him
 to the pre-prison reception center.

 The local jail has television.
 The center does not.

 And Renne -- before going up the river -- wanted to watch the game.

[RollTideFan] Iron Bowl 2003

2003-11-21 Thread TIDE1

Hot off the press!
By: Ward, Butch
November 21, 2003 7:46 AM
  Iron
Bowl '03
  by:
The Goat Man
  The leaves have
fell and it's gettin' cold,         It must be time for another
Iron Bowl,
  A lot has happened
since Two Thousand and Two,         To the Crimson and White and
the Orange and Blue...

  I might as well
mention, good ol' Coach Fran,         The all-time, hands down,
sorriest man,
  Who the Good Lord
might not let into Heaven,         I'm glad Oklahoma beat him,
by seventy-seven...

  And over at Auburn
the rumor mill,
 Was bearing down on Tuberville,
  When he was
hearing noises he wanted to muffle,         What was Tubby's
answer? - The Assistant Coach Shuffle...

  Meanwhile, Bama
thought Coach Price was right,         But we didn't know how he
spent his nights,         Hangin' out with hootchies, carousin'
and drinkin',         Made us wonder, what was we thinkin'?...
  So we had to show
Coach Price the door,
 One more ulcer for Mal Moore,
 You might say Price was not elated,
  About his story in
'Sports Illustrated'...

  But it all worked
out, we found a coach we like,         Don Shula's son, the one
named Mike,
  He's young and
smart, he's got lots of class,         And through his doors no
hookers pass...

  At this point I
cannot neglect,
 To use a verse to pay respects,
  Without The Voice
of Auburn, Jim Fyffe was his name,         Touchdown Auburn!
won't ever be the same...

  Pre-season hype
had Auburn the best in the west,         We're loaded with
hosses, put us to the test!,         This is Auburn's year!
there were winks, and back-slappin',
Now, five
lost games later, ... it ain't gonna happen...

At Bama the
season was a big question mark,         Did we have enough
depth, would Brody be the spark?,         Would the new coaching
staff have plenty of knowledge?         Would Shula figure out,
how to coach in college?

Now eleven
games later, we're bruised, sore and bloody,         Our
record's a shambles, Big Al's grass-stained and muddy,        
But our players never quit, they lay it all on the line,        
We've come up barely short, in seven overtimes...
Our coaches
have good game plans but we've got holes to plug,         It's
hard to do and fight off the injury bug,         Brody's been a
tough one, he throws the ball with some zing,         And that's
hard to do with a shoulder busted like a chicken
wing...

So into
Jordan-Hare two mediocres stumble,         But do not be
deceived, it's gonna be a rumble,         'Cause every coach and
player knows that he is on a mission,         To be a part of
history and carry on the grand tradition...

Before we
get excited and fill the air with our invective,         Let's
take just a moment, to get a real perspective,         The
Tigers and The Tide are getting ready for a war,         While
half a world away, our kids are fighting for much more...

And back
here at home, right here in our state,         Decent people
look for jobs, 'cause things ain't all that great,         So as
we settle down to enjoy the Iron Bowl game day,         God
bless Auburn, God bless Bama, and please God, bless the
U.S.A

Cheers - VO-
