As I watch today's "Iron Bowl" football game between Auburn and Alabama, I have no dog in the fight. I don't call anybody a "Bammer" or a "Barner" and I don't walk around randomly screaming out "Roll Tide" or "War Eagle." I enjoy the Iron Bowl and understand the history and tradition of the whole event.
This time as I watch, though, I do have a team that I hope wins. It doesn't have anything to do with not liking Nick Saban or thinking that Cam Newton is playing for Auburn after being illegally recruited. It doesn't have anything to do with thinking that an Auburn win will help my team make a better bowl or hoping that Alabama gets beat again after winning it all last year.
