    The reception has been unreal

    I?ve been in south Alabama for over 20 years. The congratulations, well wishes, attaboys, has been unbelievable.

    Im so proud, so proud, to the point of damn near constant tears.

    If ever there was a university, administration, alumni group, or fan base more deserving, I?ve yet to see it.

    Here?s to all of YOU!

    HOW BOUT THEM DAWGS!

    HAIL STATE!

    Happening up here in Mass, too. I have a State flag on our front porch, so people know our house's allegiance (A "house sigil", if you will). Today while I was working in the garden, a car stopped on our street and the guy yelled "Congrats to your baseball team!", gave me a thumbs up, and said "Hail State". It was pretty cool.

    Same here in TX. All the Aggie fans followed us religiously because they wanted us to bounce Texas. Ended up falling in love with our team.

    Good stuff. This was an easy team for folks to love. Just grinders and kids who showed joy in playing the game. They played hard and hustled and that's in short supply these days.

    When I check in every morning at MD Anderson, I'm greeted by a young man named James. He checks me in each morning. James has been pulling for us the entire CWS. Thursday morning when I walked in he was grinning from ear to ear and yelled Hail State as I walked through the doors!!! He gave me a fist bump and it was just another awesome feeling!!!

    My neighbor is a diehard Razorback - it really hurt him when they lost but he immediately text me and said he was a dawg to finish the season. Couldn't stand to see Tennessee, vandy, or Texas win it. He was at my house celebrating with me on Wednesday. Razorback fans know all to well what's it's like to be so close but not finish it.

    Live in Houston, I won a lunch bet with a UT coworker and he wanted the same bet going forward but we washed. He was cool about losing the first because Bednar had such a game. Also got congrats texts from A&M and LSU people mainly. I did get a couple of likes on FB from Hogs.

    I went to the grocery store this afternoon in Meridian and ran into several MSU fans. Only one that I knew but everyone was all smiles and we talked to each other like we had been friends for life. I can't see this going away anytime soon.

    I've got friends in Utah, Idaho, California, Washington, Nevada and Montana that have texted and messaged me with congrats. It really has been something to behold.
