#3 Goes Third! Four In First Round!
UNIVERSITY of ALABAMA running back TRENT RICHARDSON was selected as the number three overall pick in last night's NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland landed a STUD.
Safety MARK BARRON was selected a few picks later at number seven by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
With the seventeenth pick, the Cincinnati Bengals nabbed cornerback DRE KIRKPATRICK.
The New England Patriots moved up to 25th and chose linebacker DONT'A HIGHTOWER.
Surprisingly-- to ME, at least-- COURTNEY UPSHAW wasn't selected until the second round, taken by the Baltimore Ravens with the 35th overall pick. I was ecstatic until I discovered he would replace the recently-departed JARRETT JOHNSON, another standout former TIDER who signed with the Chargers. (Just THINK of a D stacked with Ray Lewis, JOHNSON, TERRENCE CODY, & back-up CHAVIS WILLIAMS!)

NFL Draft Brimming With TIDERS
The National Football League holds their annual draft starting tonight, and it looks like THE University of ALABAMA could have up to FIVE players taken in the first round. Four, at the very least.
Fresh off yet ANOTHER NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP, The TIDE should represent pretty well in tonight's festivities. Running Back TRENT RICHARDSON is expected to be a Top-5 selection, with Safety MARK BARRON surprisingly seeing his stock rise as of late, and looking to be in the Top15.
Defensive Back DRE KIRKPATRICK --who has seen his stock rise with good workouts but fall after an arrest incident-- is probably next out of the gate from BAMA's stable of studs.
Linebacker/Defensive End COURTNEY UPSHAW is seemingly an enigma to NFL teams, who are not quite sure how he will fit into their schemes. He is WAY too talented to not be selected, CERTAINLY a safe bet, and it would be hard to find a more disruptive force in ANY position.
Linebacker DONTE HIGHTOWER is going to be an asset in somebody's defense. Look for him to just CRUSH people.
ROLL TIDE!

TWO MORE TITLES!

How It Went:
Some advice:
When you are an offensive genius, you get a job in the NFL. When you get a job in the NFL, you lose games.
When you lose games, you take a job at Arkansas. When you live in Arkansas, you get bored.
When you get bored, you go looking for strange. When you go looking for strange, you find strange.
When you find strange, you take it for a ride on your motorcycle.
When you take strange for a ride on your motorcycle, she reaches around and grabs your junk.
When she grabs your junk, you wreck your motorcycle.
When you wreck your motorcycle, you end up at a press conference in a neck brace.
Don't end up at a press conference in a neck brace...switch from cable and upgrade to DirecTV.
