In Alabama a man said "Roll Tide" to me as a greeting.

Later that same day, the same man said "Roll Tide" as a goodbye.

I asked a woman at the store what it means.

She said, "Roll Tide."

I asked what it means.

She said, "It means Roll Tide, sugar."

So I began collecting evidence. I kept a list. I am not embarrassed about the list.

I have now heard "Roll Tide" used as: hello. Goodbye. Thank you. I am sorry. Congratulations. That is unfortunate. I agree. I disagree. And once, in a hardware store, as a complete set of instructions for installing a ceiling fan.

I heard it said at a funeral.

It was appropriate. It was the most appropriate thing anyone said that day.

I began using it. Carefully at first, the way a man handles a borrowed sword.

I said it to a cashier. She said it back.

I said it to a police officer who had stopped me for a broken taillight.

He looked at me for a long moment. He looked at my face. He looked at my taillight.

Then he said it back, and nodded once, and did not write the ticket.

I wish to be extremely clear that I am not claiming those two events are related.

I am also not claiming they are unrelated.

A man at a gas station heard my accent and asked where I was from. I told him Japan.

He said, "Roll Tide."

He meant welcome. I knew he meant welcome. There was no ambiguity at all.

I have been in Alabama eleven days.

I have one word.

It has been enough for everything.

I have started saying it in other states.

It does not work in other states.

I said it in a warehouse store in Oregon. One man turned around.

He was from Alabama. He said it back. We did not speak after that. We did not have to.

I say it anyway.

17 years. There are no words. Before I was a husband. Before I was a Dad. I had you. By my side through the best & worst of times. I hope we were as good to you as you were to us. Go fetch all the tennis balls Bent. We love you forever.

We'll get our revenge during Thanksgiving

• Game finished after midnight ET
• On the West Coast
• On an unexpected lead change at the end of the game
• In a game that ultimately had no impact on the fate of either team

Heck of a way to welcome back #Pac12AfterDark after 2 years off!

Former Alabama WR Julio Jones says he would message opposing DBs girlfriends days before their game to try to hookup with them to get in their head. Via @PeteNokos_

“I would try to f**k them and send their boyfriends pictures of it to make them sad and shit before the game”

RAHHHHH WE WILL TEACH YOU WHO INVENTED SOCCER USA USA USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Cynical Publius @CynicalPublius]

Let me explain why I think Freddy resonates.

Lots of Europeans visit the USA as tourists. They visit New York City, or Washington DC, or Hollywood, or Las Vegas, and if they visit natural beauty too, they go to really crowded places like the Grand Canyon or Yellowstone.

So while they see our cultural and natural icons, they are mostly in blue cities and they therefore also see the decline, the homeless, the drugs, the dirt and the rude, rude Americans.

But Freddy is not doing that. Freddy is driving, and he’s doing it through the heartland, where people are kind and polite, the skies are wide open, and the bounty of Buc-ees and Bass Pro Shops are overwhelming.

Freddy is not seeing fentanyl and decline.

He is seeing the real, hopeful, patriotic, kind America that European tourists rarely traverse.

And he loves it.

That’s why Freddy is a phenomenon.

A grand slam in a super regional to potentially send your team to Omaha has to be a top tier feeling in life
