The Tide is High at Alabama

Alabama is crushing Georgia 31-3 in the third quarter. It looks like the Crimson Tide is going to have a shot at a national title this year. Soon after that, Alabama will be making their inevitable return to probation.

Alabama's compulsive cheating makes them one of the major evils of college football--right up there with Oklahoma and Southern Cal. I'm not very high on the bullying arrogance of their boosters and fans either.

If there were any justice in the NCAA, Alabama would have been shut down for a couple of years the last time they were on probation for paying off Memphis high school coaches to steer their prospects to Tuscaloosa.

But since there is no justice, the Tide is high yet again.

Speaking of "The Tide is High," here's some Blondie to help them celebrate. One of the classic Steely Dan songs off Aja is Crimson Tide-related as well.
