I was too young to love Kenny Stabler while he was Bama player, I learned to love him for who he was after football.
Kenny “The Snake” Stabler was my favorite Alabama football player of all time, even though I was born after he left Alabama. I didn’t grow up watching Kenny Stabler play for the Tide, I didn’t even grow up watching Kenny Stabler play for the Oakland Raiders, but Kenny Stabler ended up being my favorite Alabama football player ever.
I was born in 1981, that was Kenny Stabler’s final year with the Houston Oilers before he moved to finish his career with three years with the New Orleans Saints.
