As we are in the dead time between seasons, I thought it was time for a tape update.

For those who do not know, we have established a group of people who provide copies of old Alabama games to anyone who asks. In exchange, we ask either for a copy of a game we do not have or that you cover our expenses.

To order games, simply e-mail me

FOOTBALL GAMES

We have nearly 300 football games, mostly the original TV broadcasts although older games are usually highlight shows or "coach tapes" (silent films with only the plays.)

The most popular game with more than 700 orders is the Auburn game from 2001. Also included in the top 10 are

1992/93 Sugar Bowl against Miami (available with ABC or Alabama Radio Commentary)
1978/79 Sugar Bowl against Penn State
1985 Iron Bowl
1999 Florida game in "The Swamp"

among others.

BASKETBALL GAMES

An expanded number of basketball games are available, including some of the more exciting ones from this last season. Other classics include some of the Kentucky games from the last 70s and early 80s, as well as the defeat of Number One Ranked UCLA a few days after the death of Coach Bryant.

BEAR BRYANT SHOWS

Almost last but certainly not least, we have generated a short list of old Bear Bryant Shows that are available. Some of these are not in great shape, given the age but all the ones offered are "watchable."

NASTY PEOPLE

Finally, some people continue to "rip off" those of us who send them tapes. Given the success of the exchange (more than 2500 people on our "customer" list) it is not surprising that the number of non-payers has grown. However, even this small percentage leaves a bad taste in our mouths.

PLEASE go and look at this (long) list and, if you know any of these people, urge them to contact me asap. The list is at
