Alabama Is The Champions Again

Earlier this evening, the Alabama Crimson Tide won their 3rd BCS Championship in the past 4 years when they defeated the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Experiencing this as a detached person on the West Coast is one thing, but if I hadn't been autistic, I'd have experienced it firsthand. Way back in 2009, as I was just about to start a normal high school, I had recently changed my mind about college and had decided to go to Alabama. However, as soon as I started in a normal school, I realized how autistic I actually was, so college was no longer an option. Having lost my virginity in 2011 made me no longer autistic from that point forward, but it wasn't retroactive, which means that before then I still was autistic. Even though I am normal now, I am now too old to attend college, and had I been cured of my autism at a younger age I would be in Miami right now enjoying the Tide's championship. Ironically, the Tide did not start winning until after I had already opted out of going, but even just knowing that they did stings tremendously. The only other BCS title during that period was won by Alabama's arch rival Auburn, it still would've been better had I been able to go to college as a normal person and not have been denied a cure due to the evilness of neurodiversity. Anyway, congrats to Coach Nick Saban on his championship. Roll Tide!
