Joshua's Thoughts on Alabama and They're Not Nice

You have to know that Joshua is a huge Arkansas Razorbacks fan.

Except when he's not.

But even when he's fussing about the Razorbacks, he is never, ever, EVER an Alabama fan.

Like, ever.

And Nick Saban? Don't get me started.

I think it was last year, there were rumors that Nick Saban was going to go to Texas to coach the Longhorns...and Joshua was the number one fan of that idea. You know why, right?

It would get him out of the SEC.

But Nick Saban did NOT go to Texas...he's still at Alabama...and Joshua is furious. He said, "pretty dumb move of Nick Saban...not to go to Texas."

Every summer, right before football season starts, Aaron-the-son-in-law hypes himself up for the upcoming football season by re-watching some of the games from the LAST season.

I don't get it.

I love football but I don't really want to re-watch games. There is even that one Saturday night in Oxford, 2003, when Arkansas beat Ole Miss in 7 overtimes, with Matt Jones as the quarterback.

It.was.awesome.

One time.

It was awesome ONE TIME.

Don't wanna watch it again.

Not Aaron. He can re-watch these games over and over on Netflix and he LOVES it. And then he talks allllll about it with Joshua.

So, the other night, Holly and Aaron were over and Aaron was talking to Joshua about football...and about all the games he has re-watched on his Netflix lately. He says, "we can re-watch that Alabama-Arkansas game, if you want to."

Joshua said, "I don't know about that." But Aaron turned it on, and Joshua sat in the chair and mumbled every Downsie bad word he never knew...about the players, the refs, the game, Nick Saban...and the entire state of Alabama.

Aaron-the-son-in-law said, "Joshua, do you remember where we were last year when we watched this game?" Joshua said, "I don't think so." Aaron said, "We were at the lake house with Mammaw Jack and Papaw Genie, and we started watching this game. It was awful! Alabama was beating us like yard dogs."

Joshua looked at Aaron with his seriously mad face and said, "I frown upon that."
