Mine eyes have seen the glory

Spotted at 8:30 tonight in a Tuscaloosa restaurant: Alabama football coach Mike Shula. He looks about the same as he does on camera, but he's taller than you think. After waiting a few minutes without saying much -- apparently even the head football coach at Alabama can't get immediate takeout -- he left the store, climbed into an SUV with his order in tow, and drove away into the night.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have been in the presence of greatness. Or maybe mediocrity. Either way, it's tall.
