The REAL question of the day is, can an elephant fellowship a Bayou Bengal?

Order restored… in a HUGE way!
Well, congratulations are in order for the Tide, as their defense proved capable of stopping anything, including congressional spending, global warming, and male pattern baldness. This game had all the drama and excitement of a tug of war, where over a 60 minute span, one group of large men inexorably dragged another group of large men, one by one, into a mudhole. The game’s MVP? The guy who laces up the Alabama kicker’s shoe.
Hail to the victors, anyhow! The one really interesting thing about this contest is that this year the prize is different. Since this was a localized battle between Louisiana and Alabama, it was decided beforehand to award the victor of this game… the state of Mississippi. With last night’s result, that state will henceforth be known as “Lil’ Bama”. This will be easier for everyone to spell, and the cultural change will be minimal.
There has been some suggestion that something was amiss with LSU’s offense besides the Tide’s ferocious defensive play. Reports that the mothers of all the Tiger offensive starters were being held hostage in a Tupelo Days Inn by masked members of the Tuscaloosa Chamber of Commerce, fed only Dairy Queen steak fingers and subjected to re-runs of the Nick Saban Show… remain unconfirmed.
Alabama has proven their status as #1. They earned it! 21 to o!
