Push By Facebook Fans For Alabama/Auburn Preseason “Game”
By tempadminSome Facebook fans are wishing for a rematch of the Iron Bowl in a scrimmage. The "game" would be for for a good cause, fundraising for tornado relief. I think it is a novel idea, but one that I think will never fly with current players. There is simply too much at risk (injury-wise) to play a live game in the pre-season.
One branch off of this idea is bringing in former football players of each school to play a "flag football" type game. It could raise a lot of money for the victims if it can logistically be done. It would be great to see players like Jay Barker & Bo Jackson out there having some fun for a great cause. Let some former players, like Tyrone Prothro, who have had serious injuries participate in the coin flip ceremony at mid-field.
Overall, the former players playing for this would be a real nice way of showing the nation that Alabama & Auburn can work together to do some good for the state of Alabama without being vicious toward one another.
