Where Did We Go Wrong?

It's really hard for loyal Mississippi State parents to watch their 9 year old son throw his life away...aka become an Alabama fan. I'm not sure how it happened, but I have a couple of theories. For entertainment value or the lack of anything better to do, go with me here:

Grey was born in Birmingham, Al at St. Vincent's Hospital. I'm thinking that maybe a nurse, surely an obnoxious Bama fan (are there any other kind?), injected him with some sort of time-released (8 years) Alabama propaganda drug that caused him to turn from his maroon and white upbringing to Alabama. He was gone for that hearing test an awfully long time.


OR it could have been the nun. She came in to give a Grey a blessing and perhaps somewhere between " the green grass of the meadow" and "his days be long" she threw in something about the Crimson Tide or Bear Bryant. I mean I was too tired, hormonal, and Baptist to really pay attention, and Mac was thinking, "Does insurance cover this?"

I can't prove, either, but I'll tell you this; if he starts developing an overwhelming desire to wear hounds tooth fedoras, I'm filing a lawsuit.

Oh, I know it could be worse; he could have turned to a life of crime or heaven help us, become an Ole Miss fan.
