RBR Initiates "Michigan Hate Week"
http://www.rollbamaroll.com/2012/8/27/3271749/michigan-hate-week
Wow, that is all I can say.
For a team that we've only played 3 times, they really hate us and pretty much everyone north of the Mason Dixon. They think we're pricks, elitist, and that they're following the rules as far as oversigining goes.
Well, enjoy!

At least Canadians have hockey.
I'm sorry, Alabama-Huntsville doesn't qualify. That shit is a joke. Them playing hockey would be like me trying to make moonshine, it'd be based solely on stereotypes and, in the end, I'd probably end up killing myself via blunt force trauma to the head. (Mine from passing out from poisonous moonshine. Them from some toothless Happy Gilmore wannabe taking a puck to the dome during happy hour open skate.)
August 28th, 2012 at 10:06 PM ^
Say we were offered a deal where the south is removed from the USA, but Canada is added. You know the entire Upper Midwest is taking that deal without a second thought.
August 28th, 2012 at 11:00 PM ^
The entire South is taking that deal too...
August 29th, 2012 at 8:19 AM ^
If by that you exclude southern florida. You can have the LA, destin, floribama, and other parts of the pan handle. alls I ask is that flying biscuit and chick fil a keep doing business with us.
August 29th, 2012 at 2:40 PM ^
You are correct: South Florida is not in the South.
August 29th, 2012 at 2:57 PM ^
Is not the North.
August 29th, 2012 at 11:50 AM ^
Eminem is way better and more famous than Kid Rock right? Maybe KR is just more popular in the minds of Alabama fans because morons in the south listen to his awful music?
August 28th, 2012 at 10:43 PM ^
I thought all that "dumb redneck" stuff was just a stereotype until I tried to read what passes for English in AL.
August 28th, 2012 at 11:27 PM ^
I hear what you are saying. Alabama is filled with a bunch of racist, ignorant, illiterate, obese, conservative rednecks. That’s all well and good, but last time I checked, those ignorant Alabamians have been building some of the best cars in the world for some of the most renowned companies (Honda, Mercedes-Benz), and are driving one of the fastest growing automakers in history (Hyundai). So next time you crack open a Pabst during the Lions game and try to harken back to the glory years of the big three and Bo, remember who’s busy kicking your ass in your two favorite pastimes.
August 29th, 2012 at 2:59 PM ^
When it comes to one of those pastimes -- college football -- it has yet to be seen whose ass gets kicked. We will take our chances on Saturday night and then we will see.
August 28th, 2012 at 9:35 PM ^
That whole page of posts is pretty comical in a sad way. Thanks for the laughs my simpleton friends down south.
August 29th, 2012 at 3:00 PM ^
It is pretty pathetic reading those posts. Unfortunately, half the posts on this comment thread are nearly as bad.
August 28th, 2012 at 9:33 PM ^
My god do those SBNation blogs blow. How can people even look at that crappy setup?

moving to Michigan from Tuscaloosa, I was caught finger banging my cousin during recess in 7th grade. The teacher said what I was doing was wrong. I replied, “say what?”.
August 28th, 2012 at 9:41 PM ^
Their listening party will consist of an (extended) family of 11, sitting on a dirt floor, listening to an old PhilCo radio, eating Great Value corn chips, drinking Shasta pop.
We're basically Canadians, and you're basically Mexicans.
Only Bama fans can actually tell you what "dead crow" tastes like. "Screw taco Tuesday's, gimme some crow mammie!"
August 28th, 2012 at 10:14 PM ^
It would be RC Cola. Duh!
August 28th, 2012 at 11:32 PM ^
"Moon Pie for Bubba's birthday!"
August 28th, 2012 at 9:44 PM ^
MZone's Fan Film Breakdown was 100x more effective
August 28th, 2012 at 9:44 PM ^
They hate kid rock as much as the rest of us! but really
August 28th, 2012 at 9:46 PM ^
...that turns people into morons?
August 28th, 2012 at 9:50 PM ^
they should be maroons!
August 28th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
Hmm, have a loss and still claim national championship from the Tuscaloosa Times. LMAO.... They truly believe people buy that BS. Lol..... Shhhh the entire USA knows. I wouldn't be calling people Yankees and be proud about that. Hey dipstick the Yankees beat your asses. You may not want to bring that up.
August 28th, 2012 at 9:51 PM ^
If they start reading books, they'll learn slavery is illegal, and dentistry was invented.
August 28th, 2012 at 9:50 PM ^
"They are the worst at losing because when they do, it’s not because they suck it’s some made up excuse about the weather being to nice or something equalling as dumb." - RBR comment
You know, you just can't get mad at these commenters, because trying to even comprehend what they are saying, in some cases, would require one to be "equalling as dumb".
August 28th, 2012 at 11:06 PM ^
when you consider that our last losses to SEC teams in SEC country were...2011 (where we got blown out and haven't heard anything but "they won" regarding Mississippi State), 2002 (another blowout, over a not-so-great team) and 1997 when we lost by three to Alabama.
Everyone can tell how bitter we are about the SEC kicking our ass in warm weather recently...
August 28th, 2012 at 9:57 PM ^
Dumber for reading that... I award them no points and may god have mercy on their souls. Lol
August 28th, 2012 at 9:56 PM ^
My life that I would like back.
Pure class...exactly as expected.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
Looks like this crazy rant was a FanPost, so it didn't come from the blog writers.
Which is good, because I would be shocked if SB Nation put one of their blogs in the hands of someone who has that much misplaced rage.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
guard all trees on Michigan's campus for potential poisoning?
August 28th, 2012 at 10:04 PM ^
Nah. I'd just tell them that we're from East Lansing. Make them Sparty's problem.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:49 PM ^
Oh god, Spartan fans vs. Bama fans....our couches would never be the same
August 29th, 2012 at 12:28 PM ^
Think of how much fun Sparty fans can have in Alabama, the "Front yard living room" state.
August 29th, 2012 at 12:41 AM ^
Funny shit CRex..
August 28th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
Looks like bammer got butt hurt before beginning Michigan Hate Week!
August 28th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
That was painful reading. I have to put up with SEC homers everyday, so I'm exposed to this kind of drivel pretty frequently. Local talk radio down here can get really frustrating to listen to...although it is funny to hear Arkansas fans try and convince themselves that they're going to go 12-0 with JLS at the helm. Let's be honest; if you couldn't beat Bama with Bobby Petrino good luck now.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
How are we elitists when a majority of them still embrace the culture and wave the flag of the Confederacy which supported and left the Union to preserve slavery?
August 29th, 2012 at 1:42 AM ^
Because we is better. That is all.
August 29th, 2012 at 8:59 AM ^
By labeling us "elitist" as if it were a pejorative, I suppose they mean to imply that there is no validity to being elite.
How absurd.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
I mean i’ve got cuzins that live in Michigan and I hate them cuz they blue and yellow and its not like a mild NC blue its that throw up in yer mouth kinda blue. I just hate em
Alabama: where "lolwut" is more than a meme. It's a way of life.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:09 PM ^
He's mad because those are the only cousins who ever turned his offer of 'getting it on behind the hog shed' down.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:51 PM ^
It's a comically poor reference to this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vt2BAfhUHX0
where a Bama fan explains why he hates Tennessee (the video is actually pretty funny).
August 28th, 2012 at 10:11 PM ^
Who taught all them southerners how to use the on-line
August 28th, 2012 at 10:13 PM ^
Who the hell wants to go to alabama? Who the hell wants to go to ANY school in alabama? It's hot, it's muggy, the people are gross and those damn accents. I could see if it was florida and it was by the ocean, but it's not.
Boggles my mind. But then I realize most of the players are on a payroll.
August 28th, 2012 at 10:59 PM ^
I used to do consulting work and went in and out of Birmingham quite a few times. I never met a single person -- Southerner or Northerner -- who did not love it there. Just saying.
August 28th, 2012 at 11:16 PM ^
I have family who unfortunately lives in Birmingham and are tide fans. Aunt is from Michigan.
Hated it. I'm a cold weather person anyways. But just the history of that city disgusts me and what went down there. And I've seen people down there that still live in that time period. Not a pretty thing.
Yet they fail to realize that the best players on their favorite college teams are usually black.
Just an observation.
August 28th, 2012 at 11:55 PM ^
That's alright, we (from the South) don't care much for your accent either. The Northern vowel shift is obnoxious and grating. Worst thing about it though is that most of you believe you don't have an accent.

Innaresting!
