I have a deep-rooted love for Alabama football, a tradition handed down from my daddy (who would have celebrated his 104th birthday today). Growing up in the South, Saturdays were marked by football gatherings, food, and camaraderie. Listen as I share fond memories of these gatherings, the joy and anguish of being an Alabama fan, and how this passion was rekindled in my 40s. Now, as a diehard fan, I follow not only my college team but also Alabama alumni in the NFL. Football remains a cherished tradition in my life, filling my Saturdays with excitement and community.

I understand the attraction of Guy DeBord’s “spectacles.”
Never enjoyed football, or understood it really. Tennis, baseball, soccer, basketball are very different for me.
Football is exceedingly violent, although this aspect may not be evident unless you are a player. Brain damage common. Structural body damage
common. An interesting research project.
In my dotage I am ever less tolerant of violence.
Would you please create a long list of the right snacks? Love this and I could feel you delight. Big smile.
