The unofficial online home for fans of the UAB Blazers. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

She is a UA Trustee.

She's a variable in this equation and part of the conversation.

She has a vote in it & is expected by us to stand up & vote as we would want her to vote as one of our few representatives.

amazing

Humphrey absolutely deserves to be mentioned in this conversation, she has the ability to be equally part of the problem as much as she does the solution. Unfortunately given her background, I would bet heavily on her being more of the latter.

She has given UAB her athletic skills, two of her children's athletic skills, and she supports this university. Her husband is a supporter of UAB, as well.

Out of bounds on this one, in MHO.

+1. Leave a mother of a current player out of this.

And what about her background makes you say that?

Superb.

As for Mrs. Humphrey, well, she's the one who chose to swim with sharks.

This is, undoubtedly, the greatest piece of writing that I have ever read on a message board.

Thank you for the kind words.

Barbara Humphrey is a grown woman who of course did her due diligence before accepting her appointment. She is no clueless naif, and it is deeply sexist to treat her as though she were. I am merely asking her to, metaphorically speaking, soak herself in gasoline and strike a match. It's no more than I would do in her place.

As for the writing, thank you again. I hope we will see the italicized section plagiarized in the very near future.

If the B'ham new would print this I MIGHT actually start to have a tiny little grain of respect for them.

Just keeping this one at the top of the list.

I think it's time for another inspiration sermon before we attend the game tomorrow. We need Belief now more than ever.
