ROLL TIDE

I have always been an Alabama Crimson Tide Fan.  My Favorite Memories are of the Tide are on those fall afternoons and nights sitting with my Dad in front of the radio.

John Forney and Doug Layton were larger than life as they described everything to a tee.  My favorite memory is of me and My Dad, Howard Fred Hornsby, in the living room floor basking in the glory as Bama took it to Southern California unveiling the Wishbone.  Come see Johnny run !!!!

That was topped in 92 as I was fortunate enough to see Bama dismantle the Mighty Hurricaines. Along side was my Uncle Wallace and Doris Veazey, their son Mike and my Mother.
My Oh My I still tear up thinking of that game.
Long since then I have lost my dad, my beloved Coach and many others, but the Passion for Bama is still there.  Chills run up and down as Bama takes the field regardless of the opponent.  Now I spend most Saturdays with my Mom, Jamie Hornsby, My wife Michele and my Son Justin...watching The Tide.

Of course as a fan I had my good luck pieces, be it a statue of an Elephant or a Bama Football player, and I begin to collect unique things as the years passed.

My collection of unique Memorabilia has continued to grow, as has my collection of Tide Rides.  I developed this space to share those with you.

 It's Football Season, better yet It's ALABAMA FOOTBALL Season!!!!

Can you imagine?  In a few short days The Alabama Crimson Tide will take to the field against the Va Tech ..Hokies.  In my post prior to the Sugar Bowl I asked, "what is a Ute" ?  Well, rest assured I am not about to ask what is a Hokie?

Not sure about the rest of you Bama fans, but I am sooooo anxious for this season to begin.  After last year I have very high Expectations for The Tide.  I believe Bama could once again "Run the Table" if they can avoid injuries and have some good luck.

Based on the recruiting news, Bama seems to be getting more and more deep at Offensive and Defensive line positions.  That is an area of concern, especially early this season, the offensive line will be a bit suspect.

PREDICTION Like last year, I will be in Atlanta pulling for the Tide.  Last year against Clemson the Tide fans were in full force and were loud not only at the game but at Game Day.  I sure hope the fans are that excited this year.  You could actually feel the electricity and excitement in the air.

Unlike last years opponent, I don't feel like VA Tech will be caught off guard at all.  So with that in mind, i look for Bama to win, in a close one.  Perhaps decided in the 4th Qtr.

 BAMA 28 - VA Tech 17
