I was at this event today. Laura Ingraham hugged my neck. It was a great time.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions, a former Alabama senator, was among those on the South Lawn for the team visit.

At least he did something, so that's progress, I guess.

Very cool!!

Btw....’hugging necks’ is a very southern thing, isn’t it? I love it. I had a great aunt who always said, ‘Come here, and let me hug your neck!’. I loved the heck out of her and miss her, still.

Hubby says that either has to be one of THE most uncomfortable relationships, or one of the most comfortable relationships, there is. I pray it’s the latter.

I hadn't really thought about it, but I guess it is.

It was also a blessing to the president who needed them today. It’s heartening when genuine, God loving young people ask to pray for you and with you to God. Coach Saban always talks about being a blessing to those you see each day.

I think someone even asked if they could pray for the President it was a beautiful sight..and it just absolutely STINKS what this wonderful man has to deal with..how it seems that everyone is against him..he didnt even need this, he just wanted to make a difference, saw this country was in trouble and wanted to do something about it, he’s not a politician he had NO idea how CORRUPT this Govt is, he had no clue..now we all know how bad it really is

Alabama Stomp

Alabama Stomp, Alabama Stomp,
That's the latest romp down in Birmingham.
Play a Dixie song, play it all night long,
And you can't go wrong down in Birmingham.

Class act, indeed. No flamboyant uniforms, very few show-boaters, a team that acts like a team and plays with pride.

Jeff Sessions is not just a former Alabama senator, he’s a former Attorney General!

So did Max Kellerman chastise UA for being on the “wrong side of history” like he did the Astros?
