...In a way, it’s probably good for the overall health of college football that Alabama is giving other teams a chance this season....

...Without Alabama, things have been pretty sleepy so far. The place (Atlanta) felt like a ghost town a day after Christmas....

...Where were all the reporters? No one was quite sure. Perhaps at the Fiesta Bowl with Ohio State and Clemson, the other two teams in the College Football Playoff....

...The Associated Press named Orgeron coach of the year. Amazingly, Nick Saban hasn’t won the award since 2008....

...For this year’s College Football Playoff, an enormous banner is stripped atop one of Atlanta’s buildings proclaiming the city the capital of college football. Yeah, maybe so, but that reputation was built by the team from Tuscaloosa, Alabama....

....It was a bizarre season for Alabama, which started off a favorite to win the national championship, and with the best offense pretty much anyone has ever seen.....

Good lord. The schlobbing is strong with this one.  The best offense pretty much anyone has ever seen?  It's not even the best offense I saw THIS YEAR in the SEC.  It's not top 20 of all offenses I've ever seen in the game.

I saw that shit and chose to open it. I figure with that kind of title it something along the line of "it's just not the same without them in the playoffs" or some bullshit like that. 

I don't want to watch the first bowl game since bammer didn't make the playoff...It's sad.....yeah, fuck that noise!

[Snaggletiger]

I opened it and kept reading for the laughs.  It's actually sad that you even write an article like that.

Joseph Goodman - the idiot who wrote the piece that started this thread - is back with more Bama puffery.

The gist is that LSU is just trying to be Bama and compete with the great Tua.

"Without Bama, nobody cares"

Nobody else cares about bamma.  Fuck them and the one trick pony state media they rode in on.

When is Toolip's BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!

The world is waiting.

When is Toolip's BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!

Monday.

Honestly, I don't care what he does, either way, I agree with you I don't think he is all that great.  I think they have an amazing line and a roster of NFL receivers. 

However, I would have to think he was the stupidest human being ever if he decides to come back.  Here's why... no one knows if he can play again, but all the experts still think he goes at a minimum in the top 20.  Take your money go to a team like Pittsburgh (you are better off there anyway) sit on IR for a year and collect.  Then when Rothlisberger retires after next year you are guy apparent and if you can't play ever again at least you still got some guaranteed money or come back to bama and risk getting hurt again?

Agreed but please, please not Pittsburgh. How about Miami?

Your words have meaning, pale face.

From what I heard today, he's not even supposed to play soft toss with the foosballz until April at the earliest.  No way he's close to being ready by the Fall. Why not do exactly the above^^^ and rehab while you're making bank?

That's my plan after I get that slip and fall settlement from the Piggly Wiggly.

Janet is a robot.  She's not real.  Sheeesh, are you people stupid or what?
