There is nothing more I hate than whiny and apologetic Bama fans who come on here and self flagellate over ssomething just becuase they crave acceptance from a bunch of message board dorks.

I for one am happy to have a coach willing to do whatever is necessary on and off the field to get an advanatge for my team. I don't give a frick about the rule really but i do care about what is good for Bama...and if Ssaban wants it, its good for Bama.

He's not going to speak on it. He didn't expect it to blow up in his face like this with the public outroar. He'll distance himself from the issue.

For a fanbase so dependent on history, you have SO little knowledge of it. Even including the saban years in the last 10 to 15 years, you've won how many IB's?

First of all you must be easily embarrassed, and secondly you must not be must of an Alabama fan if because Coach Saban gave his opinion WHEN ASKED
you get all silly and say that you are embarrassed. He didn't just start saying that this was his opinion. He has talked about this for 2 years, and it would have looked a little silly of him not to go and speak about it when asked to do so. If he had refused and said, no I'd rather wait until everyone is here, they might have told him to just shut up about it then.
He was given an opportunity to speak up about something that he does not agree with, and he did.
Frankly, I would have been more embarrassed if he had kept his mouth shut when asked.
You're falling in to the trap that some of these teams are talking about saying he is scared of them. Auburn using the HUNH did not beat us, some bad coaches calls beat us and that happens, and as far as Ole Miss goes, he really should just shut up and go on. They didn't even score a point against Bama last year, so he should want some changes to be made, and maybe it would help them.

First of all Saban, as a defensive minded coach, has been on the record about the HUNH for sometime so this is nothing new.

Secondly, Saban is the most powerful and influential coach in the game today....and if he can use his influence to get what he wants then it benefits Bama which is what I care about.

Weren't you calling Miles & the whole LSU fan base pussies last year when our head coach was advocating for a more balanced SEC scheduling system?

So other Alabama fans are mad at me for complaining? Am I not doing the same thing that you're defending Saban for doing?

The hypocrisy here is unreal. That's why I'm embarrassed. We're defending something when we know it's part of the game. Instead of changing the rules, adapt.

Don't get mad at me for saying what so many other Bama fans don't have the balls or courage to say.

You are one dumb bastard. ...We count National Championships, not IBs...the IB is your end-all, while the crystal ball is ours!...and that's why you are little sister.

Hate the slow down rule. Pretty cowardly IMO. Can't say I support Saban on this one.

No, I just think it's stupid for you to run to an SEC message board to do it.

My defense of Saban doesn't have anything to do with the rule. It has a lot more to do with the fact that he's earned the right to complain about whatever he wants to. And I enjoy how much it's gotten under the skin of the little sisters in Auburn.

No it's not. You just wanted a pat on the back from the idiots on this board.

I'm not mad. I just think this is a stupid thread.

If bama fans would simply admit saban is full of shite in trying to get this passed under player safety by inviting himself to a meeting to speak on this topic (and obviously not speak truthfully or from an informed position) everyone would probably leave you gumps alone.

The problem is gumps trying to defend saban here. That is where everyone starts bashing.

Admit saban was deceitful in this entire thing, disingenuous, and self interested and that would be that.

Trying to defend and spin some shitty antics by saban is where gumps look dumb and are getting ripped for it.

Yep...thats becuase LSU is THE most whiny and bitchiest fanbase in the league...although Auburn is running a close second over this HUNH business.

We are all for a balanced schedule but we are not giving up the TSIO which is what you guys want us to do simply because ya'll are still in a state of perma-melt over the BCS game.

I already have pretty much.

And the bottom line is WE DON'T CARE. Because he's earned the right to complain about whatever he wants to.

I literally don't give two fricks about that rule. If Saban wants it, I want it.
