They don't think ahead they react to attacks. The reaction isn't logic but rage.

Yeah, I don't see much rage or irony. Blogosphere seems to be kind of just laughing and the talking heads are a little incredulous. To be fair, Saban simply asked for an invite and got one. Bret went as chairman of the AFCA and misrepresented them...he should be the poster boy for all this.

Is this the article you are referencing?

3 minutes? Maybe that is a lot to ask.
Not a bad article but
quote:
Because, we are told, there has been no conclusive evidence that there is a link to the number of plays and pace of the game and injuries. In fact, there is no conclusive evidence one way or the other. And, of course, if the rule-makers are going to err, according to many critics of change, they should be sure not to err on the side of caution. Then, if the studies are done and the evidence is there, we can all go back and issue a collective apology to the injured players. Does that really sound like a good idea?
...I'm not buying it. A coach could recommend no forward pass allowed on 2nd & 1 for player safety (real reason: stack 11 in the box with no fear of the big play).
"On what do you base this as related to player safety Coach?"
"JMO, but we must err on side of caution."
"Okay Coach, resolution passed."
The writers premise would allow rule changes willy nilly.

Quote: "Another COMMON use of irony is: "a situation that is strange or funny because things happen in a way that seems to be the opposite of what you expected". I won't go into detail explaining the IRONY in the situation that the OP described, because I think it would be a waste of my time."
You won't go into detail 'cause it isn't ironic. Weasel behavior is exactly what is expected from Saban. Hence, no irony involved.
The comments in this post are totally unsurprising and hardly ironic. Saban's position is self-serving as are most of the comments here. No irony. Irony would be Saban advocating a position that head coaches be required to be 6ft tall.
