re: JD Vance tweets his analysis

The Dems fear Rubio electorally. The Dems fear DeSantis operationally/tactically. The Dems fear Vance ideologically.
I agree with all 3 of these. And as a result, the Republican Party would be much better off going with DeSantis and actually stabilizing their operations, before moving forward at some later point with another ideologue.
I like Vance, and think he could be a terrific president one day, but Desantis’s competency and consistency is what is needed in 2028/2032.

Yep. Simple as that to anybody willing to admit to common sense.
Hard stance on immigration and ICE controversies didn’t turn swing voters left.
Hard stance against the wacky, extreme side of the rainbow coalition and a rebuke of all the trans shite didnt turn swing voters back left.
Starting a war that has never been sold to or bought by the public, at all, turned voters to the left against the current administration.

Coach DeBoer just came into my business and yelled the N word.
:lol: i legit lol’ed. Whatever it takes to get him ousted and not pay for it. I was there and heard it too!
It’s definitely joyless.

Listen carefully. There’s no chance he’s fired. He was just given an extension. He is not getting fired. I’m not a DeBoer fan but he is not getting fired… somebody comes after him or he makes sweeping changes are the only possible outcomes.
Probably true. But again, it will likely cost the program more in the long run. We are going to suffer through this shite for 2-3 more years until it’s totally untenable, fans lose interest, the program loses prestige, and then hopefully find the right guy to totally rebuild the program. I dont know what the value lost it over all of that but I bet it’s a lot.
quote:
Don’t fire him and wait until you can afford to will cost you more in the long run
All of the “reasonable” fans on this board will tell you this is the right answer.
But you are absolutely right that it will cost more in the long run. Les fricking Miles was able to take over for Saban and keep a program near peak level for a decade. DeBoer is crashing and burning in year 3.
Fire the head coach and then the coordinators can frick off with him.

I'm tired of this outside narrative that Bama just has impossible expectations.
Exactly. Problem is, so many Bama fans have been convinced by it and are afraid to be criticized by other fan bases lest they be called unreasonable. So they are simping for Deboer after getting embarrassed by Tennessee. It’s pathetic.
Hint Hint: Tennessee fans are very happy with many Bama fans’ current apathy and want us to keep Deboer forever.

Games like yesterday are going to be a yearly occurrence regardless of the coach. I’m sorry to bring this news to your attention.
Lol, no.
Nobody here is expecting us to run the table every year. And we didn’t freak out last week after a battle and a close loss.
What we are fed up with is the games where we completely shite the bed from the start and look clueless on how to rebound for an entire game. This has happened 2-3 times per year consistently and shouldnt be accepted as the norm.

Deboer is our only chance. Who else can possibly replace him?
I hope this thread is just very dry sarcasm.
If not, it is an example of Bama fans being a bunch of giant pussies. This program has had THE TWO greatest college football coaches in history. But now many of yall believe that a coach who is mediocre and a bad fit is the best we could possibly hope for and there is no reason to consider wanting anyone else…. Wtf am I missing here?
The program’s identity under DeBoer is a perennial 4 loss team where at least 2 of those losses we will get our arse beat and look totally clueless on offense.
That’s it. That’s the program for the next few years. Have fun all!

Stop what? Fantasizing about something that is unlikely, but would be a slam dunk.
We’ve seen enough to know this is what the program is going to be under Deboer. I dont feel hopeful anymore that we are going to turn a corner under him and become dominant. Going to lose 4 games a year and get our arse beat a couple of those losses.
I guess you and and the other downvoters are OK with that and just gonna be chill and watch us slide further into mediocrity.

Well we can wait and watch this for 2 to 3 more years until the buyout is whittled down to a more reasonable number, but it’s gonna fricking suck to wait that long.

Bama fans have actually been very patient since Saban left (unlike what everybody said we would be) but today was not a good sign at all (pathetic is a better word) and patience in DeBoer is over.
Stupid buyouts will probably prevent it, but Bama should just end the DeBoer experiment now and do whatever it takes to bring Cignetti to Tuscaloosa. Yes he’s older, but he probably has 6-8 good years left if he wants to. After what he’s done at fricking Indiana, I would love to see what he could at Bama.

Exactly.
This pisses me off, but Im sure it will be hard for me not to continue to watch Alabama games each week.
BUT, I probably am done watching any other regular season game because teams have 3-4 mulligans and the games dont mean shite.
12 teams was pushing it, but I got on board and I think it was an OK balance and it’s still tough to make the playoff field. So I was still excited about big regular season matchups around the country, like Texas-Ohio State this year.
Next year, it’s tough to a give a shite about any regular season matchup that doesnt involve your team, and then just watch the playoffs. Yay, we are every other boring sport now.

You say this….
But for example, I used to be one if the most die hard CFB fans there is. Every fall weekend arranged around Saturday college football and Alabama’s schedule.
Even a die hard like me is really close to not giving a shite and I might check out next season once this happens.
It used to be the greatest sport with the most die hard fans. But greed conquers all and powers that be have told those die hards to frick off. So I might listen and stop giving them the ratings.

This is really stupid and unanimously hated. But if youre gonna do 24, just make it 25 with some sort of play-in game between the bottom two teams. At least then it sorta ties in with the top 25 polls which the sport has always had. But the people in charge of these decisions appear thoughtless and don’t give a shite about the tradition of the sport.
