Bama Lost

Yes, yes. We know. In fact, we watched the whole depressing thing. The Crimson Tide lost the Sugar Bowl (big time!) last night to a determined Utah team. They had a lot to prove (being the only undefeated team in the nation and still not given much recognition) and certainly did so against a shell-shocked Bama team.

But the real point for my dear wife (and my brother) is that "our team" beat Auburn. That's the only game that really counts, when ya get down to it. They (Cynthia and Travis, that is) are sort of like Brother Mel (and Roger Savage, et al) about Green Bay, or Sal about the Bears, or Mike about Michigan, or Keith/Fred about the Gators, or David about the Buckeyes, etc. Oh, well. Fanatics will be fanatics!

Now if I can only get my wife to cheer up! She is working on her Sunday School lesson for tomorrow at the moment and that will help. She can't stay depressed when she gets to thinking about all those kids she loves so much. I've always said that it would be the greatest thing in the world to have her as grandma--and that's just what she is to every kid she meets. So, maybe there's hope I might get some supper after all!

Maranatha!
