<p>I arrived to find the walls, bookshelves and desk almost entirely adorned in Alabama paraphernalia. Flags, pompoms, foam fingers, streamers, bumper stickers, etc. This is the work of an Alabamian coworker who finds great joy in the fact that my Benedict Arnold son has chosen to reject his upbringing and cavort with the enemy.</p>
<p>“I’ll never pause again, never stand still,
Till either death hath closed these eyes of mine
Or fortune given me measure of revenge.”
– William Shakespeare</p>
<p>I can’t believe what a jerk your co-worker is. Looks like he didn’t have the decency to at least leave y’all a GPS tuned in with directions to the 50 yard line. Sheesh!</p>
<p>slippy, I’ll give you this: we may not cotton to your beloved Tigers, but Vegas does. I was there earlier this year and plunked down a bet for Alabama to win the BCS title in 2013. The odds were 4-1. The odds on LSU winning were 3.5-1.</p>
<p>malanai, I saw one of those preseason mags that are out already (Lindy’s?) and it had LSU number 1. I don’t like that, not one bit. That said, now that we have finally gotten rid of Jordan Jefferson and have a real quarterback taking charge, LSU should be better. The schedule is way easier than last year.</p>
<p>I’m sure I’ll invite my son and one of this friends to sit with me at the LSU-Bama game. They are welcome to wear crimson, but I cannot be held responsible if they are pelted with rocks and garbage. ;-)</p>
