You see, VaTech was the best karate student of the Kobra Kai dojo - a mean-spirited bleach-blonde kid who upon seeing Bama's injury tried to sweep the leg. While Bama was an against-all-odds good guy with a JC Penney black belt washing Mr. Miyagi's car. No one. NO ONE saw the crane-style reversal of fortunes that Bama-son would enjoy. No one except me, that is.

I would've pulled for Lipscomb anyway, even if my nephew wasn't on their golf team. Go Bisons!
he's longer with the driver - but I get to move up two tees

I thought Lipscomb was in Naishville? How did they settle on bison as a mascot?

LOL. Bama-son just replaced Bammer in my lexicon...

Ed Zachary, that's why Bama was reviled, if not hated. The joke that didn't get a laugh the first time. The only redeeming quality is you get to hear Avery's jabber after every game. He's like poor kid in 4th grade homeroom with Doritos crumbs around his mouth and perpetual shitbreath because his mammy hain't never bought him a tooth brush.
Stick to football and cheerleading, Bama. You don't belong here

Nobody knows why. They catch hell for "bisons" though...the plural of bison is bison.

Hedge,
Good question. Apparently, they don't have a great or interesting reason.
In fall 1932, the bison became a permanent part of the Lipscomb University tradition. During the 1931-32 school year, Lipscomb fielded its first-ever intercollegiate men’s basketball team. Head coach Robert Alexander had the task of selecting uniforms for the new team. Alexander took student athlete Jack Draper, team captain, with him to Burke and Company in downtown Nashville to purchase team uniforms.
Draper noticed a jacket with a buffalo, as he called it, across the back.
“After seeing a buffalo on the back of a jacket hanging in the store, Jack Draper suggested to Coach Alexander to call the team the ‘Thundering Herd,’” said Andy Lane, associate director of athletics. “But the coach liked the ‘Bisons’ as the team mascot.”

MORE. NEED MORE. And not that weak sauce. Email Crow for some colorful adjectives; then, revise and resubmit.

I've been posting via phone since at least 2010. I've never been bothered by the format. It works the same for me as it does on a laptop or house computer. Yeah, I can't post pics but I would think you guys would be happy about that.

As bad as Bama is, A&M is even worse. Way to show America that you don't belong, Aggies.

Exactly. But America was dumb for thinking we might belong in the first place. Providence honestly looks like shit, too.
