Top Ten Reasons to Love Alabama Football

We Win 

Sure, not every game, but the vast majority. Being a fan of a team that loses all the time would be depressing. Of course, I can only imagine that is the case, since my team wins, a lot.


We Have Bear Bryant"The Bear" 


Yes, he is dead and gone, but his spirit lives on in Alabama fans. Let me explain this so you non-Ba,a fans will quit telling us to stop mentioning him. Not only was he one of the best football coaches of all time, he was the man we all wanted to be our mentor, friend, father or grandfather. He had a magnetism that was so strong, that we will simply never get past it, so stop telling us we should.


Roll Tide Means Something Good 


"It's a boy!" Roll Tide! "I'm coming over and bringing a case of beer." Roll Tide! "I just won the lottery!!!" Roll freaking Tide! The possibilities are endless.


We Have Nick Saban


You only hate him because we have him, and he's a winner. If he was coaching your team, you would think he hung the moon. You don't have to admit it aloud. We already know.


Bryant-Denny Stadium Rocks 


Sitting with over a hundred thousand of your closest friends can never be wrong. Throw in a jumbo tron, and one of the best hot dogs on earth? I'm certain this is what heaven is like.


Have Team Pride, Will Travel 


Our fans show up in droves at all away games. The last time we played Hawaii? Looked like a home game. Alabama fans are not afraid to do whatever it takes to support the team no matter where we play.


It's A Numbers Game 


The Bowl wins, SEC Championships, and National Championships just keep adding up. Love us or hate us, you cannot argue with the numbers.


Big Al is Endearing 


Sure, the elephant is often portrayed as a vicious crusher, but our mascot is actually a softie. He may not be the most popular mascot in sports, but he is one of the most dearly love by Alabama fans.


Denny Chimes


Better than "Big Ben" and four times as likely to leave a lump in your throat. No, it won't tell you the time of day, but it will give you goosebumps every now and then.


Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer


You hate to hear it, because it means we just beat you. We love to yell it, because it means we just beat you. Admit it, it's catchy. You want to scream it too, but you know that you can't, because it means we just beat you.
