I think the post was pretty interesting. It's also interesting that despite pretty much every major sport championship being won by a wild card type team / team that didn't have the best regular season, the ONLY outrage among these is over Alabama winning the BCSNC. People did not balk at all over Uconn, Bruins, Mavericks, Cardinals, and Giants championships, but they pissed and moaned for weeks (and are in fact still pissing and moaning now) about Alabama. Interesting.

Okay.

that is the point
No. The point you are trying to make is that undeserving teams won titles this year.

but LSU did win in BDS (a fact most of this board has forgotten) and finished the regualar season #1. I would say that LSU was the best team in the regular season.
Going back to my last post, some would argue that they were not. That defeats your attempt at painting UA as undeserving.

At this point, to say LSU was the better team is ridiculus!
Holy shite....did I say LSU was the better team? You guys are crazy....all I said was that in every major sport this year the champion was not the best team during the regular season (record wise, statistically, etc, etc).

Did I say undeserving? Each team one the title by the means that their respective sports determine a winner. Hence, each winner was deserving. That is not to say that the 9 - 7 Giants were the best team during the NFL regular season. You Bama folks are pretty sensitive.

I guess this just goes to show that playoffs don't do any better job of determining a "true" champion than the BCS does, maybe worse. At least the BCS got the arguably 2 best teams in the finals.

Post count smack. How long have you been on the internet?
Yes, we just got internet in my trailer park. When I am not cooking meth and having fun times with my sister/wife, I decide to explore this mysterious creation known as the internets.

honest and interesting story
its a story based solely on opinion and perspective. I wouldn't call it honest. and only interesting on a moral victory standpoint.
Would have been better recieved on Tiger Rant not SEC Rant.

Nah, but I've got the "One Month" thread bookmarked. Just clicked "edit" on my posts and copied and pasted, and copied the links from the pics that others posted.

Probably so...my bad. Was not intending to offend anyone. I actually tend to find better discussion on the SEC rant than Tiger rant these days, which is why I posted here. Probably better over on the MSB, but noone is ever there. Didn't realize the ultra-sensitive Bama vultures were going to come out.

The way you presented it and then got defensive is what brought out the vultures. You failed to mention in your OP that you were simply quoting an article.
Then you pulled the "13-1 >>>>> 12-1" and it went downhill from there.

The board has become such a flame fest that a post like that is gonna stir people up.
It kinda came off as a we should have won Bama was undeserving type post thread.
