A little more wisdom to add to The Process

The weekend proved it again.

Even the undefeated aren’t invincible. Even the greatest minds aren’t infallible.

Last Saturday, in the state of Alabama, two neighbouring tribes went to war. The Crimson Tide of the University of Alabama on one side, hunting down their fourth national title in five years, and on the other, their deadly rivals Auburn. Auburn’s average home attendance eclipses Manchester United’s and matches the capacity of Croke Park — 82,000. Alabama’s is 101,000. Together they form one of the most intense rivalries in US sport, the feature of a documentary in the fabulous ESPN 30 for 30 series. Last Saturday they offered up some of the best sporting drama of the year.
