Kurt, you may have seen the Mal Moore message sent this morning...if not, here is what he had to say about the revenue: Having the extra home game for 2004 will mean a minimum of $2 million for our program. There is a lot of misinformation out there that we would make up the money by having the Penn State game on TV. That simply isn't accurate. When we play a non-conference game on the road, that school and its conference own all of the TV rights and derive all the monies from those contracts. Bottom line, it appears Bama would receive very little money for playing PSU up there. These are tough times for the Bama program. MM may be right in making this call. Roll Tide!!

Now Kurt, I understand you're upset, but to be wishing that MY beloved Tide lose to a team from Utah ... is ... well .. just wrong.

Re: [RollTideFan] Toothless, gutless pukes
I say it is very typical of the slUT majority and if we really look into the heart and soul of most SEC fans, they want the same thing; A winning - dominating football program, no matter the cost.

[RollTideFan] Andrew Zow Article
http://www.gadsdentimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20030624/NEWS/306240312/1028/SPORTS02 Zow using smarts to help area youth ... Andrew Zow was back in town last Saturday, teaching local kids some things about football. It was the second time he's been here to help run the Freddie Kitchens Football Camp. He was here two years ago, when he was preparing for his senior season at Alabama. Last summer he was playing football in Canada, then he coached at his old high school in Florida. Now he has a business in the Birmingham-Tuscaloosa area, where he plans to make his home. Andrew and his wife, Amerbiss, have two sons, Andrew, Jr., whom they call A.J., and Abry. He doesn't know if either will be football players, especially quarterbacks. I may not want the pressure of being a quarterback on my sons, Zow said. The media attention on the Alabama quarterback, the expectations of the fans, is almost unreal. But still, in that position, you put more pressure on yourself to go out and do well than anyone else does. Zow said just being a quarterback is tough enough, then to have all the pressure from the media, to be shoved in the spotlight, puts you in a position where you have to perform; where you have to be competitive, because you can't back down from that type of a challenge. It's something you don't understand unless you have been there, he said. There is no way to prepare to step into the role of quarterback at Alabama. But once you go through it, you are a better man. Zow had his ups and downs at Alabama and even considered quitting. Now he is glad he stayed. He gives a lot of credit to Kitchens, who was the quarterback when Zow arrived at the Capstone. When I first got there, he didn't tell this freshmen to go away and leave him alone; he took me under his wing, talked to me and showed me the ropes. He told me if I needed anything, to call him, Zow recalled. That's what a young quarterback needs, for a senior to guide him and say he will take care of you. I learned a lot from Freddie, both on and off the field. The next year, it was John David Phillips, then I was the old hand after that. Zow said Kitchens also made an impact on him by his actions. I watched Freddie take a beating on the field without complaining or giving in. When I was a freshman and saw the way Tennessee hit him, I didn't think I'd be able to take that. He took a real beating, but kept getting right back up. After Zow became the quarterback, he went through the same thing against Tennessee. I kept thinking of Freddie, and I'd tell myself that if he could do it, so would I. So I'd get my tail back up, he said. Zow said he is happy with his career, proud of himself for the things he went through. I can't complain, although I know it was an up and down career - sharing playing time and then being benched as a senior. But I accomplished a lot and I can't take anything away from that, he said. Zow was able to do things some players could never do, setting a lot of records and winning some big games and a SEC championship. The highlight of his career, he said, was being able to win his last four games; leading Alabama to a bowl and getting the TV version of the MVP award. The last four games I played were really MVP-type of performances, he said. I enjoyed it. It was an opportunity for me to show I wasn't as bad as everyone thought - and the team wasn't as bad as everyone thought. We were able to salvage our season by getting to a bowl and winning it. Beating Florida in Gainesville, then again in the SEC Championship Game were also highlights; so was breaking all those passing records, which proved a lot of people wrong, and a lot of people right, because I still had a lot of people behind me, he said. The low points were the 3-8 season as defending champions and going into the season ranked No. 3 nationally. We went to UCLA and embarrassed ourselves. The team was in turmoil and we never got it going. No one believed in us and it went down from there, he said. Zow recalled the coaching staff being in chaos, telling the players different things. I don't think a team can win unless everyone is on the same page. Everyone, coaches and players, have got to know what everyone else is thinking, he said. After Mike DuBose was fired, Dennis Franchione came in and build the offense around Tyler Watts. I wasn't a running-type quarterback, Zow said, I couldn't take the ball to the corner like Tyler. Before, the offense had been made for me because of my arm strength. Watts was playing, Zow was on the bench, giving lip service to Franchione by saying he hadn't learned the new offense. He considered getting out, but decided on sticking around to finish his education so he could go out in the business world and do what he needed to do for his family. Finally he got an opportunity to play again and he took full advantage of it. I played my heart out, when we needed a

Re: [RollTideFan] Football #1 at Bama!
I agree with you on Neyland. I've been twice but neither game involved Bama. One was a slUT win over Florida in 1991, I believe, the other was a slUT loss to Georgia Tech in or around 1983. The crowd was crazy during both contest. Believe it or not, slUT was my second favorite team most of my football life until Phat-ass Phillip Fulmer became head coach. That SOB makes me wish the whole state of Tennessee would disappear. In my opinion he ruined the ALABAMA/Tennessee rivalry. Roll Tide!! Rick Devonna Snuggs wrote: I have been to both!

http://www.13abc.com/index.cfm?Article=8236SecName=28Level=1SubID=0Itm=SideID=IsItm= Baseball Brawl 6-19-03 We've all seen and heard stories about parents getting really upset at various sporting events. In Maumee, a little league baseball game ended in a brawl last night. Police say the fight started between two players and ended with parents throwing punches. Fifth- and sixth-graders in two little league teams watched their parents duke it out after the game. Police say the brawl started because one of the parents tried to get in the middle of two players. A fight between two little league players escalated to a brawl between parents. James Lipscomb says things got out of control, when a St. Patrick's parent grabbed his son -- who goes to Newbury School. I ran over there and grabbed the man by the arm and said 'look, that's my son, let him go', then I shook him again and said 'let him go, that's my son'. At that point, police say fans from Newbury School jumped in, and began punching the St. Pat's parent several times. Detectives say Newbury players even began kicking the parent while he was on the ground. Police say the only two adults charged with assault are Newbury assistant coach Jamie Aldaco and his relative Richardo Aldaco. Other adults were involved in the assault but police say the Aldacos are responsible for the serious injuries suffered by the St. Patrick's parent. James Lipscomb says he's embarrassed about the whole ordeal. I'm disgusted the way parents acted at game as well as how the kids act. We did talk with the St. Patrick's parent who was beat up; he did not want to talk on camera but says he was just trying to stop the two little league players from fighting, and can't believe how things got out of control. As for the two players who fought, they're charged with disorderly conduct. __ RollTideFan - The University of Alabama Athletics Discussion List Welcome to RollTideFan! Wear a cup!

Re: [RollTideFan] Pissing Contest
Well, before I start arguing one way or the other, I'd like to know who started the negotiations to back out of the series. Did we approach them first or did they approach us? Someone made the first phone call or mailed the first letter. Once we know that, then the discussion can go forward and maybe something fruitful will come from it. Right now neither fan base knows that important bit information. And of course the Aubs want a piece of the action because of all the grief we gave them about the FSU game a couple of years ago.

[RollTideFan] Homeless?
Look at the lifestyle this dude is accustomed to... Firing could cost Neuheisel his mansion MEDINA, Wash. (AP) _ In nearly any other neighborhood, Rick Neuheisel's $4.2 million home would stand out. It sits on 130 feet of Lake Washington shoreline, has four bedrooms, a dock and sweeping views. But this isn't just any neighborhood. Here, his house is modest _ smaller, in fact, than neighbor Bill Gates' underground garage. Nevertheless, Neuheisel might have a tough time keeping the home after the announcement Thursday that he's being fired from his $1.2 million-per-year job as Washington's head football coach. Athletic director Barbara Hedges said the university intends to have him repay a $1.5 million loan that he could have kept if he had remained coach through 2007. According to property records cited by the King County Journal, Neuheisel refinanced his home on July 5, 2002, with a $3.6 million mortgage. The current balance on the home was not available. It underwent a $50,000 remodel in April. Medina, a waterfront community across Lake Washington from Seattle, is loaded with Microsoft and other corporate executives and retirees who are loaded themselves. The town's 3,011 residents have a median household income of $133,756, according to the 2000 Census, compared to Seattle's $45,736. Of Medina's 973 homes, 383 are worth $1 million or more. Neuheisel's 5,360-square-foot, three-level home is on a half-acre. Built in 1988, the house and property were valued at $1.9 million when Neuheisel purchased in 1999; today the county assessor places the value at $4.1 million. Assessments typically lag behind actual market value. Though a far cry from Gates' 48,000-square-foot Medina estate with its seven bedrooms, 24 baths, five acres of property and valuation in excess of $109 million, Neuheisel's place is not without its advantages. In the summer, Neuheisel has commuted to campus in a 24-foot purple-accented speedboat. When Neuheisel brought Washington recruit Reggie Williams to visit by seaplane, Neuheisel's wife, Susan, was waiting shoreside with homemade cookies. Williams joined the Huskies. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/gen/wire?messageId=17053297 Roll Tide! RMc. __ RollTideFan - The University of Alabama Athletics Discussion List Welcome to RollTideFan!

[RollTideFan] Wells Didn't Need This...
http://www.cw.ua.edu/vnews/display.v/ART/2003/06/12/3ee8e9983f284 BREAKING NEWS: Pavkovich signs with Angels By Drew Champlin Sports Editor June 12, 2003 Adam Pavkovich, who would have been Alabama's leading returning hitter next season, has signed to play professional baseball. The Anaheim Angels drafted the Crimson Tide shortstop in the 11th round of the Major League Baseball amateur draft following his junior season, in which he hit .338 with 11 home runs. Pavkovich also led the SEC in doubles with 27. He didn't disclose the bonus for which he signed, but said negotiations were tough. The negotiations were tough, because I didn't have an agent, Pavkovich told The Crimson White. They (the Angels) put a lot of pressure on me, but that's their job. It took about a week and a half for us to come to terms. Pavkovich was scheduled to play in the Cape Cod League this summer with the Hyannis Mets, but instead will fly out to Salt Lake City on Saturday and then drive to Provo, Utah, where he will start at shortstop for the Provo Angels. The team is in the Pioneer League, which is the Advanced Rookie League team of the Anaheim Angels. Pavkovich said Alabama coach Jim Wells was the first person he contacted after signing. While Wells would love to have his bat in the lineup for next season, Pavkovich said the coach was pleased for his young shortstop. He was happy for me, Pavkovich said. He was happy to see that I get the chance to go on and play. He wished me the best of luck. Wells could not immediately be reached for comment Thursday. Pavkovich was one of three Tide players drafted. Outfielder Beau Hearod was selected in the 10th round by the Houston Astros, while pitcher Brian Reed got picked by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 27th round. Pavkovich's departure leaves a hole at shortstop. Possibilities to replace him include Allen Rice, Evan Bush and Carlos Sosa. Rice started every game at second base, while Bush platooned with Nathan Meiners at third base. Sosa saw action at shortstop in 2002 before taking a medical redshirt this year due to a torn ACL suffered in spring practice. Roll Tide!

[RollTideFan] Heisman Award
After reading this article on Manning, I wondered what Bama *might* do in say 2005 when Croyle is a senior and he ends up with the career that many expect. Will Bama put together a campaign? I hope not. ~ OXFORD, Miss. -- Archie Manning says his family has softened its stance in opposition to the University of Mississippi promoting quarterback Eli Manning for the Heisman trophy. Ole Miss QB Eli Manning has a chance to do more than follow his father's footsteps by winning the Heisman. Archie's only request when it comes to promoting his son: Keep it simple. If Eli gets attention from (award voters), it's going to be because he's earned it going into his senior year, Archie Manning said in a telephone interview with The Clarion-Ledger newspaper of Jackson. He'll be a candidate, but I still don't want some all-out deal or something. The elder Manning, a former Ole Miss quarterback and two-time Heisman Trophy finalist, said the family has agreed to let the school come up with a strategy to push Eli Manning for what is considered college football's most prestigious award. snip http://espn.go.com/ncf/news/2003/0611/1566477.html Roll Tide!

I was transferred to Fort Rucker and later to Fort McClellan about the same time as Coach arrived at UA. Needless to say, I immediately became a BamaFan... Later, I married a Fine Young Lady from Anniston and between the two *It just don't get any better than that*!!

Check out those lists of seniors and juniors I forwarded to the list. These men are all about building and maintaining character. Each one is something special and the attribute that best describes what that group has is character. Character is the direct result of mental attitude and is founded on unchanging principles. It has unspoken power, it is solid and resolute, and it doesn't blink. These players were recruited by Mike DuBose and came to Alabama to win championships. They have stayed the course through all the crap that was thrown their way and they are still proud to wear that Crimson Jersey. I'm gett'in-excited folks! We're two months away from two-a-days.

http://tuscaloosanews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20030608/NEWS/306080378 /1007/NEWS02 TUSCALOOSA | A gunman hiding in a wooded area behind Point-O-View apartments fired a spray of bullets that scattered a gathering of residents and went through the walls of four of the apartments Friday night. University of Alabama football player Justin Smiley was among the residents ducking for cover when the shots rang out. I was in my backyard minding my own business, joking around with some buddies, and some dude started yelling racial slurs at us, Smiley said. The next thing I know, someone started shooting at us. The person who shot the gun and the group of residents and friends behind the apartments had been yelling back and forth through the wooded area around 7:50 p.m., police said. We were out barbecuing, and someone started yelling for us to shut up, said Paul Cimino, whose apartment was left with bullet holes in the porch screen, back window, ceiling and living room wall. Some jawing went back and forth. Someone over here said ëYou don't know who you're messing with,' and then we heard gunshots. Tuscaloosa Police Department spokesman Capt. David Hartin said that, according to the report taken by officers at the scene, someone at the apartments fired a gun into the air to make the person stop shooting.

[RollTideFan] Irishman (Non-Bama, Roll Tide Anyway!)
Enjoy the joke! Just 92 *freak'in* days till kickoff!!! An Irishman had been drinking at a pub all night. The bartender finally said that the bar is closing. So the Irishman stood up to leave and fell flat on his face. He tried to stand one more time; same result. He figured he'll crawl outside and get some fresh air and maybe that will sober him up. Once outside he stood up and fell flat on his face. So he decided to crawl the 4 blocks to his home. When he arrived at the door he stood up and again fell flat on his face. He crawled through the door and into his bedroom. When he reached his bed he tried one more time to stand up. This time he managed to pull himself upright, but he quickly fell right into bed and is sound asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. He was awakened the next morning to his wife standing over him, shouting, So, you've been out drinking again!! What makes you say that? he asked, putting on an innocent look.

[RollTideFan] Best U.S. Presidents (NON-BAMA; but ROLL TIDE ANYWAY!!)
I ran across this interesting little poll while surfing around the WWW. I http://www.gallup.com/poll/releases/pr030516.asp ... Abraham Lincoln gets the most mentions from Americans at 15%, but not by a significant margin over the second-place finisher, Kennedy (13%). Two recent presidents, Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan, as well as the current president, are all mentioned by 10% or more of the public. Other presidents earning mentions from more than 5% of the public include Franklin D. Roosevelt and George Washington. Gallup has asked this question four times since 1999, and over that period, Lincoln and Kennedy have typically rated near the top of the list. In 1999, Lincoln had a six-percentage-point lead over Washington, Kennedy, Reagan, and Clinton. Kennedy led the pack the next year, with a small four-percentage-point lead over Lincoln. Polling in 2001 and 2003 has found no clear-cut victor among the presidents mentioned, but Lincoln and Kennedy still appear near the top of the list. Reagan, with 18%, actually had the most mentions in 2001, probably due in part to the fact that the poll was conducted around celebrations of his 90th birthday. Who do you regard as the greatest United States president? 1. Abraham Lincoln 2. John Kennedy 3. Bill Clinton 4. George W. Bush 5. Ronald Reagan 6. Franklin Roosevelt 7. George Washington 8. Harry Truman 9. Jimmy Carter 10. Theodore Roosevelt 11. George Bush (the elder) 12. Thomas Jefferson 13. Dwight Eisenhower 14. Richard Nixon Republicans, Democrats Vary Substantially on Greatest U.S. President The latest polling finds dramatic (but not necessarily surprising) differences between the Republicans' and Democrats' choices for the greatest president in history. Three Democratic presidents -- Kennedy (25%), Clinton (21%), and Franklin Roosevelt (13%) -- are Democrats' most frequent choices as the greatest president. Lincoln is the only Republican president identified by a large number of Democrats, with 9% saying he is the greatest president. Among Republicans in this poll, 23% mention the current president. Lincoln is mentioned by 20%, 18% mention Reagan, and 9% mention Washington. No more than 3% of Republicans nominate any Democratic president as the greatest of all time. Independents have a more mixed view, with Lincoln, Kennedy, Clinton, and Franklin Roosevelt each getting between 11% and 16% of the votes.
