Title: Strike two for Finebaum...

His second SI column is another massive whiff.

Saturday should be a magnificent day in Happy Valley. Many this week are reminiscing about the storied gridiron battles from long ago between Alabama's Bear Bryant (who retired at 69, putting his university's best interest over his own) and Paterno. Even if Penn State manages to pull off an upset over the third-ranked Crimson Tide, it will only prolong the longest, saddest and most heartbreaking farewell in sports history.

This dud of a column generated no conversation and faded quickly into utter obscurity.  Added fail points for sucking Bryant cock.  That's strike two.  Hopefully SI will see the error of its ways and dump this washed up hack when he delivers another flop this week.

I used to sort of respect Finebaum's writing.  This piece was epic shit.

Bear retired at 69 because he was dying of cancer... not out of some greater good for the inbred nation.  Unreal.
