Thank you so much for writing this. I work with a Bama fan who I get in monthly arguments with about the 4 fingers thing. I've been trying to tell him that we didn't start it...it was the bammers reaction to it that started it. If nothing had been said by Finebaum about it the "Fear the Thumb" t-shirt would have never been made. The formula's pretty simple 'Bammer fans say that something Auburn fans do bothers them' = 'Auburn fans will do that particular thing ad nauseum and never grow tired of it'. Have you ever seen/heard the story of how Jim Fyffe came up with his signature touchdown call? He made a long put on a golf course and yelled out 'TOUCHDOWN AUBURN' and some bammer on the course crossed over 2 holes and got in his face and told him how much him and his fellow bammers hate that. Fyffe said that as far as he was concerned it was a done deal that he was going to say it every single time we score a TD. Holy crap. Thank you so much for writing this.
