Tommy Tuberville Running for US Senate

By: WhiteHouseWes on June 20, 2019, 8:10 PM | 20 comments

Somehow I missed this, but apparently Tommy Tuberville announced he's running against Doug Jones for the Alabama Senate seat in 2020. Not try to get political or turn this into a political thread, but found this interesting. It would be nice not seeing him broadcasting games this season.

What this country needs is to get back to running the dang ball.

-Tommy Tuberville, probably.

The Orange and Maroon you see, that's fighting on to victory.

I came to this thread to see how many comments it took for this joke to be made.

Using /s is for cowards.

It's great that senators can pass bills but we all know that only truly great senators can run bills

Here lies It's a Stroman Jersey I Swear, surpassed in life by no one because he intercepted it.

He has the most wins against Saban and won more than lost.

Lmao yeah the best thing about this off-season is Tubby and Mack Brown getting off the air (although I think the hate on Mack as a commentator is a little over the top).

Strong name recognition in the state? Check.

Never banned from any malls? Check.

I'd say he's the favorite at this point.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me.

True, unlike certain other candidates, he is allowed in every mall in the state of Alabama. But you may want to refer to 757hokie83's comment above you before declaring him a favorite.

If you play it, they will win.

Naw, he's of the right party for Alabama and Moore is history. Tommy will easily win that election. There are things people down there seem to hate more than 'bama.

Oh, you're likely spot on. My comment was more in jest to illustrate the irrational importance of college football in the South.

If you play it, they will win.

That's a good point. It's going to be the perfect experiment to find out what Bama fans hate most.
