There Is No Joy in ’Bamaland
The headline at ESPN says, “Tennessee tops Alabama in epic back-and-forth thriller,” but please, spare me such “thrills.” Pardon my lifelong preference for the boring, easy, lopsided Alabama victories.

Richard Sherman became a hero Thursday night to legions of football fans who’ve been shouting at their TV for years.
