Bama fans doin' Bama fan things.

[h=1]Andalusia parents name son 'Krimson Tyde' out of Alabama fandom, mom says[/h]I know what you're thinking. Bama fans do this stuff constantly. Not impressed. Come back when he has a Saban autograph on his forehead after the next Bama Fan Days.

The real beauty is in the follow-up article.
[h=1]Phenix City man, father to Crimson Tide and Alliegh Bama, offers support to Andalusia family who named child Krimson Tyde[/h]If this was turned in to a high-school creative writing class, it would be derided as a cliche-ridden stereotype-fest.

Some selected nuggets:

"Alabama football seems to keep us strong," Broadhurst said. "It keeps us focused on what we need to get done. It's more than football to us - it's a family.

Quiz idea: Yoda describing The Force or Bama Fan explaining football? Plus, I thought Auburn trademarked this "family" nonsense.

A one-time high school football star, who regards Nick Saban as a father-figure of sorts

Hopefully this father won't "step out for some smokes" and never come back!!! (Dolphins Fans: "yeah, about that...")

Wife, Emily, 24, wasn't as devoted to the team when Broadhurst met her nine years ago

Article says he's 31 now. You do the math.

at this point, it almost seems like the writer is getting in subtle jabs, too.

Broadhurst never attended the school and hasn't stepped foot in Bryant-Denny Stadium, he insists that the university makes him stronger as a person

whoops. SPOILER ALERT. Plus, more zen-like Yoda speak.

finally, some advice we can all agree on

Don't worry about what other people say

Yep. Lot of faceless, judgmental cynical bastards out there these days.
