Sean, your comment got a good laugh outta me! I doubt that many, if any, of the Alabama players enrolled in that university with the intention of getting a legitimate education.

I'll take the Detroit Lions for $500 Alex....

The answer is, I haven't a fu@(\ing clue...

How does one family get away with owning a professional football franchise for 54 years despite winning exactly 1 playoff game that entire time?

Why do the White Sox refuse to hire a manager with any kind of solid experience or a track record of winning? Robin Ventura, Terry Bevington, Rick Renteria (ugh, ex-Cubs manager for 1 year), Jerry Manuel, Gene Lamont, Jeff Torborg, Ozzie Guillen (got lucky with that one). What an absolute suckfest of shi**y managers since Tony LaRussa who never won anything until he left Chicago. I just don't get it.

Now that this contentious election is final over, I can't help but wonder why neither candidate, when discussing American greatness or lack of it, mentioned
the fantastic 2016 performance of our drug free American Olympic athletes, hauling away a record number of medals, totally eclipsing all other nations. On a lesser scale, how about our Ryder Cup team, winning the cup back on American soil? I am only sorry that Arnold Palmer, who died the week before, didn't have a chance to see the gripping finish. Arnold Palmer was a great man who never doubted America's greatness.

Why does the field goal kicker get credit form the where he kicks the ball and the punter gets credit from the line of scrimmage?

Why is a RIGHT handed batter pulling a ball to LEFT field and a LEFT handed hitter pulling the ball to RIGHT field?

Why do I always need to pee when I'm in a stairwell?

Why don't you find a better place to hang out than in a stairwell?

I live in mobile (the belly of the beast)

Saban has just built that program in unbelievable fashion.

Most really good programs have 3 deep at most important positions.


Bama is literally 4-5 deep at every position of the field. Their second string units as a team would be top 10.

Saban has head coaches working for him that never see the field..they only recruit.

Saban has more coaches on his recruiting staff than Florida has on its entire coaching staff.

He has a literal blank check for anything he wants.

Why does Florida have baseball teams? Florida is for spring training!
