Thanks to back-to-back national championships from the two premier college football programs in the state — Alabama and Auburn — the citizens of the state of Alabama are feeling quite pleased with their position in the world, despite the fact that — football aside — they essentially live in a third world country.

"I am so proud of our state's football teams and overjoyed at their success," said Alabama Governor Bob Riley. "It really takes the pressure off of me, too. This will keep the citizens happy for a while and maybe in that time I can create one thing that makes this state livable other than college football."

Redneck Florida Gators fan James "Big Jim" McIntyre says he can't wait for the Gators to beat Alabama and shut up "all of their redneck fans."

"Alabama fans are nothing but a bunch of inbred bumpkins," said McIntyre, a lifelong Gators fan who lives in rural north Florida. "Don't leave any of your sheep around them or they'll get raped."

McIntyre himself has five sheep, as well as seven goats. "Ain't none of them been raped, not once," said McIntyre. "That's the difference between Florida fans and them 'Bama rednecks. Are me and my kinfolk attracted to them animals? Sometimes. Sure. But we don't do nothin' about it like they do."

A GameStop in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, switched out the cover of the new EA Sports' NCAA Football 11 with one featuring Tim Tebow crying.

Turns out they changed the back cover, too.
