Walt Weiss has a decision to make. He either has to get ejected in tonight’s game or the first home game back in Atlanta.
It’s what Bobby would’ve wanted.
The year is 2028, and the United States has just elected the first woman from Alabama as president.
A few days after the election, the president-elect calls her father and says, “So, Daddy, I assume you’ll be coming to my inauguration?”
“I don’t think so,” he replies. “It’s a 16-hour drive, your mother isn’t as young as she used to be, and my arthritis is acting up again.”
“Don’t worry, Daddy,” she says. “I’ll send Air Force One to pick you up. A limousine will take you from your door.”
“I don’t know,” he says. “Everyone will be so fancy. What would your mother wear?”
“Oh, Daddy,” she replies, “I’ll make sure she has a beautiful gown, custom made by the best designer in Washington.”
“Sweetheart,” he continues, “you know I can’t eat those rich foods you and your friends like.”
“Don’t worry,” she says. “The entire affair will be handled by the best caterer in Washington. I’ll make sure your meals are salt-free. I really want you to come.”
So the father reluctantly agrees.
On January 20th, 2029, the first woman from Alabama is sworn in as President of the United States. In the front row sit her mother and father.
The father leans over to the Supreme Court Justice next to him and whispers, “You see that woman up there, hand on the Bible, becoming President of the United States?”
“Yes,” the Justice replies.
The father says proudly, “Her brother played football for the University of Alabama.”

Tennessee House Majority Leader William Lamberth (R-Portland) appears to criticize Rep. Michele Reneau (R-Signal Mountain) after she argues against teaching students that dozens of Founding Fathers were slave owners and defended them using a Bible passage.
"We're gonna teach history, let's teach history. Some of our history is ugly in this country, and there are people over the years that have twisted and poisoned what the Bible says to try to justify an evil act."
"This is not partisan. If you're on this floor and you are a racist, you cannot be Christian. You could be Christian, or you could be racist. You can choose God, and you can choose love, or you can choose hate. You cannot choose both."
I am genuinely curious if I get any response from someone with some sense at https://t.co/EY3aGRGRf7 but I do not expect it. I am sure you can find the tapes. And yes I used almost every expleted known to man while talking to her because I don't like being lied to.
https://t.co/r15doiqtjg I used your service to book a hotel room for March 9th. When I got to the hotel they could not see the reservation which was prepaid. When I called your customer service 3 hours later they told me my options were to pay for my room and then have the hotel
Your customer service is horrendous. Apparently you are thieves. I am fairly sure I have never dealt with customer service this bad and I have dealt with a lot
It is now 4:10 a.m. Central Standard Time. I am supposed to be in a meeting in 3 hours and 50 minutes. That is obviously not going to happen. It is truly disgusting. The level of incompetence displayed tonight. And to lie about it, I'm curious if I get any legitimate response
She hung up. Joe, to recap I paid you for a service. Not only did you not deliver it, you so spectacularly failed at it is almost comical. Your supervisor lied to me and to your partner. And I have no hotel room. No money and no shame from https://t.co/EY3aGRGRf7.
Most of you know that my brother died in a motorcycle wreck the day after Christmas. Billy Bob hits the nail on the head right here. I wish I could shake his hand.
