JABU LOVELACE. The running man with the cannon arm who won’t get any serious time unless Mike Teel gets injured. And if he does, then expect the rate of rocket-hard passes to the Rutgers WRs to increase three-fold.

I’m…a little worried for 2010?

If they’re going to rent planes, they ought to do it from the man that sang “Shake it Like a White Girl:”

Although I was tempted, I refrained…..kinda like H.I. in Raising Arizona, when he admitted he found himself “driving by convience stores that werent on the way home”………

I think Nick Saban wasn’t comparing it to 9/11, I think he was saying he was dialing 911 cause during the ULM debacle, I am pretty sure he told the dispatcher that if we lost, he would kill somebody

Capestone Alum, you are biased enough to tell the difference. But using the difficult times of 9/11 and Pearl Harbor as metaphors is what everyone has objection to.
If the shoe was on the other foot and it was Tommy Tubberville saying these same lines, you would have shouted foul till you had lost your voice. So don’t try to convince people otherwise.

1) “This is our 9/11.”

2) “In difficult times people come together.”

Can you tell the difference? I certainly hope so.

Capstone Alum

“He was not equating losing football games to those catastrophic events,” football spokesman Jeff Purington said in a statement to The Associated Press. “The message was that true spirit and unity become evident in the most difficult of times. Those were two tremendous examples that everyone can identify with.”

Wasn’t he using the difficult times during 9/11 and pearl harbor as metaphors for “difficult times” of losing two consecutive football games??

Thanks, Mr. PP, for not Rick-rolling me again, which I fully expected.

So, Saban was at Kent st. I always wondered what in the hell those guys were shooting at, now I understand.

That is pretty much exactly why I never go kiteboarding. That and those blood-thirsty carp! Those sons-of-bitches will eat you alive!

Will you please stop with that shit? He did not compare the ULM game to 9/11…I know you have a little bit seep out thinking about Saban misspeaking behind the microphone..but if one took the time to look at the whole transcript…you would see that no comparison was made..
