Alabama National Championships, Alabama fans, you'd better stop lying to us.
God, better known as "Nick Saban" to many of those clad in Crimson, wouldn't approve of such a sin.
OK, OK, I'll stop picking on you.
In a fast-paced world where ignorance is accepted less as an excuse each day, I guess I'll let you slide on this one.
After all, a growing number of the Tide's newfound bandwagon fan base isn't even educated past the high school level, while much less of them have actually received a degree from the Tuscaloosa-based university.
Those fans in particular are usually the ones spouting the lies.
Not because they're liars, but because they've heard the false claims throughout their lives, and who in their right mind would lie to them about such an important thing?
As one of my journalism instructors at Troy University once taught me, "If your mom tells you she loves you, check it out."
I took heed to that advice on this subject, and the truth, as painful as it may be, is that when Alabama suits up to play Texas in the BCS National Championship on Jan. 7, the Tide will be playing for its eighth—not 13th—national championship.
So here's to you, my good friends that constantly nag everyone in sight about this subject.
Hopefully, you won't shed too many tears while reading this myth-debunking analysis of your claims.
I understand that this will offend many, but hey, there's always two sides to every argument.
Especially when it concerns one talking about a team in the state of Alabama:
