Steve Spurrier

Sorry it has been so very long since I have posted anything. I’ve had a bit of a medical scare in the last few months. For awhile, it looked as if I would be in a long battle with lymphoma. Thankfully, however, everything has cleared up and I am hopefully back on track! Here’s a little caricature of “The Old Ball Coach” Steve Spurrier that I recently painted before the Alabama vs. South Carolina game. Unfortunately, the “Mojo” didn’t work this time.

Iron Bowl Mojo...

Big in-state rivalry, Alabama vs. Auburn. Always a great game.

For those not familiar with Alabama football, the gag in this cartoon is a play on the old Crimson Tide cheer:

"Rammer Jammer

Yellow Hammer

Give 'em hell

Alabama"

Another Mojo...

...and still undefeated!

A Little LSU Mojeaux...

This should be a great game!

A Little More "Mojo"...

Looks like the "Mojo" is still working. This week we have a little "Rocky Top" "Mojo". For those of you whom may not follow SEC football, this is a HUGE rivalry. Hopefully we'll pull this one off!

Oh, I guess I should also mention that this illustration is my attempt at a caricature of Tennessee's new head coach, Lane Kiffin.

More "Mojo"...

Can we stay undefeated? First, the Tide will have to get passed Spurrier's Gamecocks later tonight. I think it will be a good game!

6 Wins - 0 Losses? Not Bad...

Alabama 38 Kentucky 20

One of the benefits of doing the "Mojo" is the knowledge I gain from hours of research in preparation for drawing each cartoon. I mean, who knew this is the true origin of the "Wildcat" mascot? I sure didn't. You won't find this information on Wikipedia...

Another Win, Another Mojo...

You gotta love that Crimson Tide.

Roll Tide, Roll...

I'm an Alabama football fan. No, make that "I'm a BIG Alabama football fan". So, a few seasons ago, I started a tradition of drawing a quick cartoon tribute for each game. A little good luck "mojo", if you will. Now, I've convinced myself that the Crimson Tide can't win without my weekly contribution.

Anyway, I thought I'd start sharing these quick little cartoons here, rather than leave so much time in between my posts.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I hope and trust that everyone has had a wonderful holiday season with their loved ones. Here's one more piece of "Mojo" for the Sugar Bowl...

Roll, Mojo, Roll...

Gotta' keep the tradition going...

Roll, Tide, Roll...

Being born and raised in Alabama, I am a BIG Crimson Tide fan. Each week, I do a little cartoon for friends and family as a good luck charm for the upcoming game. I fondly refer to this as "The Mojo". Well, this week's game was SO huge I had to post this here.

By the way, for obvious reasons, I have affectionately dubbed this game's piece: "MeauxJeaux". ;o)
