Whoa: Intense Suicide Survival Post I Found


For the first time ever, I was so moved by a blog post that I had to make my own just to make sure as many people see it as possible.  I am always moved when someone speaks publicly about suicide...  But there was something about this story that really affected me.  Please take a moment and read:

The Suicide Bandage

"But either way, I miss him.  So damn much it makes my heart cry sometimes.  So much that I want to climb onto my roof and scream at the heavens.  So much I feel like I could double over sometimes and just sleep forever.  But the reality is, he is forever a part of my legacy.  Every word I type to this day is partly driven by my love for him & my desire to keep who he was alive.  Every time something surreal or lovely happens, I can hear his laugh. This beautiful laugh that just filled the room.  The laugh that is so clear to me even now.  I am bawling like a child as I write this and can still hear it like music in my head"

I would give anything to hear Kev's silly laugh just one more time...  That smile that could turn a bad mood upside down in 2 seconds flat.....

One Voice Matters....

The Recruitment of Elisha Shaw

Image
A nother signing day has come & gone.  And in what has become the norm, Alabama has the #1 recruiting class, signing phenoms like Bo Scarbrough & Rashaan Evans.  Rival fanbases have already begun the annual discussions of which players on Saban's roster will be "processed" to make room for all the incoming 5 stars.  Ya know... Because the leader of the evil empire doesn't care about players.  He only cares about winning. While ESPN is ooing & awing over what might possibly be the best signing class ever, the best story of National Signing Day has gone virtually unmentioned.  The story of Elisha Shaw.  Outside of my fellow recruiting junkies, I doubt anyone's even heard his name.  At one time, Shaw was one of the top defensive tackle prospects in the nation.  With 17 scholarship offers on the table, programs like Georgia, auburn, & Florida State were all fighting for him.  But Shaw's situation changed drastically when he su...

Bama Baseball Heads to Tallahasee: They Scrong!

Image
Bama Baseball is headed to Tallahassee for the NCAA Regionals as a 2 seed in the 4-team, double-elimination event.  Bama Bats will face off against Kennesaw State on Friday while The Famous Jameis FSU Seminoles take on Georgia Southern.  Bama's dominant start in SEC play helped them climb all the way up in the rankings to #8, but a brutal back half of the schedule left them beat up, beat down, & beat out.  After a one & done performance at the SEC Championship Series last week, the Tide goes into the series with a .278 batting average which is among the upper half of the SEC.  And with 10 SEC teams making it in, that speaks volumes. *auburn & tennessee did not. LOLOLOLOLOLOL* Now the big question is who's on the mound Friday?  Care to take a guess..... I think Bama will surprise people this weekend.  I'm scrong! Like, they scrong! Are you scrong? WE SCRONG!!! ROLL TIDE! ROLL BAMA BATS!

I HATE AUBURN!!!

Image
     I really do.  So in honor of being stuck watching them play in the SEC Championship Game today, I thought I'd make myself feel better by listing some of the many reasons why I HATE AUBURN !       I hate Patrick Fain Dye. I hate his drunken diatribes. I hate his interviews. Why should I care what a drunk, cheating, lying tree farmer who loses his own pants has to say? I hate that he can't even say the word family.  What does fambly even mean?  I hate that he's like the Jim Jones to the auburn cult!      I hate Tommy Tuberville.  I hate his ears. I hate wingnuts because they remind me of him.  I hate his smug grin.  I hate that he allowed his '04 team to receive championship rings FOR WINNING NOTHING! I hate his thumbs & that stupid saying, 'Fear The Thumb'. What kind of man holds up fingers to taunt heartbroken college kids?  A classless one named Tommy.  That's who....
