UAB Football

This was the 3rd attempt at trying to get a picture of all the kiddos.

At the Alumni house

Future UAB blazers

Over the last few days I have learned that the board of trustees, that has screwed UAB over before, has done it again!!! I understand that our football team isn't great but those boys try hard and just want to play football. No, we aren't Auburn or Alabama or any other SEC football team for that matter and in some ways that is awesome. At least our boys heads aren't so big they can't walk through the door and they genuinely just want to play football, they aren't searching for fame and fortune. After all they are only 18-22 years old!

Our football program needs a boost and the on campus football field is just what we need (and maybe a new coach)! Except UAT thinks otherwise, or maybe I should say Bryant Denny, Jr. thinks otherwise! I have never been and Alabama fan and never will be! When we first moved to TN, the first question people usually asked was "are you an Alabama fan?" When we would say no they would say "oh so you must be an Auburn fan?" Our response, "actually we are UAB fans!" And as a UAB fan, it is heart breaking to see people (ie the BOT) or someone, continue to belittle us and stop our progression. We will never be a football program as big as Alabama or Auburn so why not just give us our little stadium and be on our way!!

My family bleeds Green and Gold and always will!!! GO BLAZERS!!
