I guess it doesn’t mean much but he’s said he has no intention of running for senate while his kids are still in school.
Governor Tubs is way more damaging for Alabama than Senator Tubs. He’ll be less embarrassing nationally because he won’t get coverage like a Senator, but he’ll be able to fuck up way more shit as Governor than Senator.
Can we seriously not find someone to run as a republican against him? Holy fuck. wes tegg, I guess you're up. I'll donate. Just run video of him saying dumb shit on loop. At the end, "Alabama deserves someone that's not a moron, lives in Alabama, and he held up six fingers." Paid for by Wes Tegg for governor.
I'm ready for his term on earth to be over. That beady eyed fuck twat has to have high blood pressure. This is all Stanley McClover's fault. He tried to kill tubs at practice once and stopped. Bad decision.
Much easier to manipulate a bunch of rednecks from Cullman to help you ruin things than Senators from all over. It’s an ego, power play. He can’t nor will never control the Senate. He knows he can run the state however he wants.
And even though I’m not sure he could ever be successfully primaried because of the low IQ of the average voter, as you pointed out long ago, the power players in the Alabama GOP hate him in the Senate.
tubs being elected to the senate is honestly an exponentially more damning indictment of the electorate than trump being president. just the dumbest humans on earth all around
I know what you're saying, but the AL GOP hates him. Do you think they'll let him do that as governor? I know nothing about it, but maybe the play is "at least he might lose a gubernatorial race"?
Especially when you factor in the access to insider trading knowledge he’ll lose out on that he so loves to abuse today.
I've said the before but it was shocking listening to him call games on the SEC Network for a brief period. He had no insight into the game and seemed to know significantly less than even I did about what was going on. Less than a year prior he was the HC at a p5 school
I’ve interacted with dozens of cfb coaches and when I say he is by far the dumbest I’ve ever met, I can’t even think of who would get second place in comparison. Just a dim, uninteresting man.
Have you ever met Dabo? I’m mentally preparing myself for when he holds some elected position in South Carolina.
One of the main things is that he isn’t doing anything to bring home the bacon. Hypocritical for alleged small government guys of course, but that’s a different issue. Our senior senator (Shelby) used to be one of the best senators in the business at it. Now, we have an idiot who can’t string two sentences together, is more interested in being on tv and serves no useful purpose for the State.
Never cared for Jeff Sessions, but he is the perfect example of the cultish nature of the current GOP. I believe I'm correct in saying that he had never lost an election. The guy had last had any sort of a competitive primary in 1996, when he first ran for senate, and even then he won by more than 15%. Trump says he doesn't like him, and he gets demolished in a primary by a football coach who doesn't even know the branches of government.
There has to be somebody in the state besides average to below average coaches. Just let jameis do it if it has to be a sports theme. The man would give one hell of a speech
Tubs is far more emblematic of the current GOP than Jeff Sessions, Sessions is the GOP of yesteryear.
I honestly thought that was gonna happen this year. With all the seniors we had and the amount of players he was going to have to replace, there was always a part of me that thought Bruce was making his last stand as a coach and getting ready to make that transition into politics. I always thought he wanted to finish strong at auburn to ensure Steven gets his job first though.
No democrats have announced. There’s a chance none do. Anyone who runs against him in the GOP primary will be just as bad. For the senate seat he’s leaving, this is the only actual democratic candidate: https://dakarailarriett.com/
I really do not want to see this happen. However... I would love to see the mental gymnastics repbulican Alabama fans start doing to justify this.
I think the state of Alabama deserves more than Tommy and Bruce, but it’s going to be hilarious so why not.
bruce wanting to gleefully murder every palestinian comes before silly things like a college rivalry for bama fans
Tubs was farther removed, though. Alabama had won a shit ton of national championships in the interim. If Tubs ran the year after he left Auburn, it wouldn’t have been the same.
