BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- A woman charged with killing a fellow Alabama fan after the end of last weekend's Iron Bowl football game was angry that the victim and others didn't seem upset over the Crimson Tide's loss to archrival Auburn, said the sister of the slain woman.

I understand rooting for the local or your favorite team. I understand the fun of rooting against the opposing team. But this is all supposed to be about having fun.

This reminds me of the incident in which an Alabama fan poisoned some old oak trees that were a favorite gathering spot in Auburn. Some people take sports way too seriously. Considering the way Alabama lost that game, I think the victim who tried to make light of it had the better attitude.

I was born in Alabama (have lived in Texas since 1969) and my family members who still live there must have taken the loss hard. But in the end, it's just a game. These jerk fans are only going to give the school a bad reputation.

How is it possible?

Schools are no gun zones.

So guns magically disappear anytime one is brought into a no gun zone.

Or could it be, someone willing to shoot someone is not too concern about no gun zones. In fact no gun zones are the best place for a evil person to be, since they would be the only ones with a gun. The (potential) victims cannot fight back.

I've heard even worse ones. Two men (yeah you guessed right) got into an argument over had the better Kool-Aod "recipe" and managed to shoot each other dead.

Why was she so upset, it’s not as if they lost to Georgia Southern.

It depends. If it was black-on-black, just another story. If it was black-on-white, it will be shot into the memory hole with a quickness. If it was white-on-black, it will become a national headline story and the revruns will come out of the woodwork to denounce rayciss whites and demand reparations and march for “no justice no peace”. That’s what race has to do with it.

On the plus side....Georgia beat Georgia Tech in double overtime.

Flipping and pausing between the two games was nerve racking.

How anyone prefers the mercenaries that play on Sunday over the college version is beyond me.

The shooting occurred at the Riverchase apartment complex in Hoover, AL not at the school.

By the way, Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA is a Conservative Christian institution (founded by Jerry Falwell) that permits guns on campus, living up to the spirit of its name.

By the way, in this Free Republic thread, you'll read in my post #36 that our church of Christ congregation also cherishes freedom. The preacher packs and so so most of the rest of us. Some thug trying to make off with the collection plate would get a flurry of hot lead in the head. We do have a graveyard nearby so the burial would be quick!

It was with the deepest respect that I did not mention that game.

But I was pleased that the Evil Genius was frozen out of the SEC Championship Game.

“I’ve heard even worse ones. Two men (yeah you guessed right) got into an argument over had the better Kool-Aod “recipe” and managed to shoot each other dead.”

Two of St. Skittles crowd shoot and kill each other - this unenlightened one wonders what is “worse” about evolution culling that herd.

Or, was it that only two were self culled?

Some college football fans need to get a life outside of football.

Arrrrrr! I'm more upset about that than, at the very least I wanted to see Spurrier have a good year.

Is that an actual attempt to be comical?

Or are you subtly mocking the racists who think that skin color has something to do with what happened?

Sometimes it would be nice to forget most of it. “Air Supply,” for example.

Keep in mind, I've been rooting against Spurrier since 1966.

Muschamp is welcome to go back to Athens anytime he wants.

If we could get Muschamp and Kirby Smart, I'd be happy.

Well, I went to MississippinState. After losing a daughter in 04, football scores are not very important any more. In less than 3 years, we lost her in 04, my brother in 06, her daddy in 06 and my mom in 07. Bama fans are odd. Football is their whole life and they can be very obnoxious.

Oh, moon of Alabama,
We now must say goodbye.
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whisky, oh, you know why.
