re: I wonder if Saban really "gets it"...

Well, I'm an Alabama fan, but it's not like I worship Saban or anything. He's a damn good coach who takes his job seriously, and I like it.

But really, I'm not going to go ga-ga over some other dude (like some giddy teenage girl would do), thinking he's somehow larger than life. To hell with that!

But yeah, I'm sure Saban gets the fact that there are plenty of sad, pathetic creatures out there who would gladly eat the corn out of his shite if given an opportunity.
