A Crimson Gal in a Crowd of Yankee Boys

Only a southern, Alabama girl could sit in a "man cave" wearing an Alabama jersey, and cheer on the Crimson Tide. The guys here have never experienced a girl like me. Most of them were confused as to why a girl was sitting in there midst, and then even more baffled when I began cheering for the Tide. I wonder what will happen when I start yelling "rammer jammer yellow hammer..."? It doesn't hurt that The University is winning. It's a little sobering though; I am not surrounded by family or friends cheering on Javier Arenas or Mark Ingram. Instead I'm far from home, cheering on trent richardson running and julio returning. I am extremely jealous of those who are at the game!!! And these boys do not understand SEC football. Like Faulkner said, "The South. You can't understand it. You'd have to be born there." Sooooooooooooo true. I never saw the truth in that statement until moving up here. But anyway, I'm having a good time. I have the biggest smile on my face! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!
