This morning at about 9 am (super early for me, normal hour for most people) I got a call from my mom. She was calling to tell me she bought me something and that she was bringing it by. I told her to call me back when she pulled up and I'd roll myself out of bed to get it. I was up last night, like I'd say 89% of the adults in my state, watching the Crimson Tide roll over LSU in the BSC Championship game. It was a great game and a bad game all at the same time. Our boys did their job, and did it well. LSU.... well they just didn't show up, so it made for a bit of a boring game. All in all the excitement of the night and my home team winning a 14th victory kept me going for quite a while. When my mom pulled up I gave her a big Roll Tide (!) and she handed me a newly printed championship shirt! Hooray! She'd stood in line after the game last night for one for me and my sister, but they didn't have scores on them yet, so she went back this morning and picked one up for me. It's the cutest thing! Of course that is what I wore today! I enjoyed going out to eat and seeing all the other fans sporting their new crimson shirts as well. It feels good to be a part of something big, even if it's just something silly like football. I'm proud of my boys, I'm proud of my state, and I'm proud to say ROLL TIDE ROLL!
