  1. The NCAA is already a non-profit organization.
  2. Blasphemy! Repent! You must beg forgiveness from his holiness Bear Bryant. You must say "Roll Tide Roll" 5 times while clutching something hounds tooth.
  3. Don't hold your breath for any new competition, or that competition will keep prices down. Essentially, there is not enough people interested in sat radio, and those that are, are only willing to pay up to certain amount for it. IIRC, that's why the companies were allowed to merge. The amount of subscription revenue being generated was not viable to support both companies. Understand, until the merger, XM never generated a profit. Not a single penny. Sirius generated a profit for one or two quarters prior to the merger, but that revenue was propped up by the sudden spike in sales of their radios.
  4. Seriously? "But hereing & reading about all the great things Tyrod is doing in Cleveland ..." has you worried? Go look at all the QB's the Browns have had the past few years. It's a who's who of bad QB's. Taylor is probably the only semi competent QB they had since 2010. Of course he's going to look good. Give a starving man a bologna sandwich, and he'll think it's the greatest meal ever. But it's still a bologna sandwich, and not a filet mignon.
  5. He does have the Dubose stink attached to him. Not sure how well that will go over with some of the older fan base and alumni. On the flip side, he did stop Clemson from being Clemson, and won a NC title. Seriously doubt Kirby will leave UGA voluntarily. He is a UGA grad. However, if Kirby was able to build UGA into a consistent power, and then leave for the Bama job ... I can only imagine the howling and moaning I will hear from the UGA base.
  6. Boy, are you going to be disappointed in the results.
  7. Some of us don't have to wait to realize. I know now just how special this is. Saban will go down as one of the best, if not the best, college football coach. Ever. Saban is in a class all his own when compared to other coaches. And that's kind of a problem. Saban warps peoples perception what a "great" head coach is. Les Miles at LSU went 114-34 (62-28 conference), 2 NC appearances with 1 win (probably would have won the second one if it wasn't for the aberration in Tuscaloosa), and was fired. That's insane when you consider there was no scandal or NCAA investigation attached to that firing. How many programs out there would have given their left nut for that kind of record? Hell, I would have been thrilled with that kind of record post Shula. But Miles was fired, partly because he struggled to get past that "freak" in Tuscaloosa. Enjoy the ride now, while it's still going. Because I pity the poor bastard who comes after Saban, just like I pitied the bastard that came after Bear Bryant.
  8. And for the Sammy cult, the seed has been planted for the excuse "reason" if Watkins 2018 production is mediocre once a gain. #SammyWatkinsDecoyOfTheYear2018
  9. It's a joke. Somebody called it years ago. https://coed.com/2012/03/28/wtf-all-holes-filled-commercial/
  10. Call me Cynical, but I think there's more crazy about her than just her eyes.
  11. Where do you stay? I heard the hotel availability and pricing is nuts in Tuscaloosa and up I-20 towards Birmingham during home games.
  12. You probably said it wrong. You were in Canada. Up there, it's not "Roll Tide", it's "Roll Tide, eh."
  13. Throwing this out there: Drive to Canada and hook up with CBF? And don't give me this "It's too far." It's the Alabama Crimson Tide we are talking about. ROLL TIDE ROLL!
  14. Itchy gums! The guys reaction is priceless.
  15. What position does he play? Is he working his azz off?
  16. And what activity do you think it means? And why does the certain activity matter?
  17. And like those other experts, are we going to hold Street & Smith accountable if the Bills don't finish at least 2nd in the ACFE?
  18. For those who may have not read it: https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/alabama-football/how-nick-saban-built-greatest-dynasty-of-all-time/ Great article about Nick Saban.
  19. Mea culpa for what? Prior to last year, how many times was the media right about the Bills being bad? Yet, just like now, there were Bills fans getting their panties in knot because some person in the media predicted the Bills were going to do poorly. How many of those fans came back with their mea culpas? ZERO.
  20. How about albums and CD's? AC/DC - Back In Black Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction I love/like every song on those albums. I also love me some Motorhead;
  21. 1. Go to youtube 2. Search for "J-Pop" 3. Pick one 4. Profit
  22. Mr. Irrevelant now feels he can compete for the backup QB spot, and based on that, you have him becoming a franchise QB by next year?? I am beyond thrilled we did not.
  23. Ah, yes. One of my favorites:
  24. And people wonder why recruits choose to go play for Bama ... https://247sports.com/college/alabama/Article/Alabama-football-lapping-the-field-at-turning-5-stars-into-first-round-picks-117872125 IIRC, OSU still holds the NCAA record with 14 players drafted. 12 was the highest by one school this year, and the highest in Bama history. If Tua continues to develop and plays up to his potential, complimented by a Saban D, the SEC will be a Crimson blood bath this year.
  25. Still a faulty comparison. The Toronto series was a failure. It was cancelled. In case you haven't noticed, the Bills no longer play any games there. There are ZERO NFL games being played there. I have no doubt if the series was successful, the Bills would have shifted to playing more home games there. In regards to London, the series has been successful for the NFL. For the Jaguars, the series has been so successful, the owner bought a stadium to "protect the Jaguars' position in London". Khan 's comments indicate nothing, other than he is staking a bigger claim in London. As I said before, he could move the team to London, play 7 home games there, and play 1 home game in Jacksonville. 1 home game a year is still a "stable and promising" future when compared to no games in Jacksonville.
