What is wrong with this picture?



Again, I congratulate the the University of Alabama football program on their 3rd National Championship, but there is something....troubling about the....pride for a national football championship..... in a state that ranks48 among 50 states in quality of life for children.  Yet, people who have never set foot in the University of Alabama, and some of whom probably can't spell Alabama thanks to the pi$$ poor education system are bursting with pride. 

I wonder how many Alabama fans signed the petition to secede from the Union after President Obama's reelection?

It's troubling when  Mo Brooks (r. hypocrite),  Congressman from the 5th district,  fresh off voting against the Hurricane Sandy Relief Bill because taxpayers shouldn't fork out a nickle for people dumb enough to live where storms hit, congratulates his Alma Mater, The University of Alabama on an amazing and well deserved victory 2013 BCS National Championship Game! With four straight national wins in a row, our state has a lot to be proud of.

O-I-C. The University of Alabama deserves to win  the BCS National Championship Game ,the victims of Hurricane Sandy deserve Nothing. Nada  Zilch. They have to protect themselves.

Are our priorities messed up? 
The State of Alabama could learn much from the University of Alabama. If Alabama wants to be the best, there is a cost. A price to pay. Until we're willing to pay it, we'll limp along with the other bottom-tier states, in most everything but a silly game.
What do you want to bet Miss Alabama is crowned Miss USA and our State has something else to brag about?

Life in Alabama ain't no Crystal Ball for the majority of it's citizens, but it could be if we invested in people like we invest in football.

RedEye tiptoeing away from the computer to go pray for our state and our country.
