Slow Day: Sporting News Interviews Saban

[No Huddle]

Alabama's last NC.

[War Eagle!!!]

Did they have video recorders in '57?

[Snaggletiger]

Did they have video recorders in '57?

No, but they did in 2004.


Wait...what?

[RWS]

boartitz, you may want to skip ahead around the 1:14 mark where Richardson embarasses the entire Hawg defense.

[GH2001]

Arkansas' last NC.

And it depends on what poll you look at on this one.

[Birmingham]

I noticed that Boartitz is living in the past, something Alabama fans haven't been accused of a whole lot lately.

[AWK]

I noticed that Boartitz is living in the past, something Alabama fans haven't been accused of a whole lot lately.

Except everyone that attended a game this year wearing something houndstooth.

[Birmingham]

Houndstooth has become a part of Alabama tradition.  Should Auburn stop rolling Toomer's Corner just because it was done in the 60's and 70's?

[The Prowler]

Houndstooth has become a part of Alabama tradition.

I guess living in the past is now considered a "bammer trudishun".

[Birmingham]

I guess living in the past is now considered a "bammer trudishun".

And...???  What do you think the definition of "tradition" is?  If your traditions aren't based on the past what are they based on?

If yall are so great, why haven't you won more than 1 NC since the BCS started? That's 1 ever that was won on the field and not the results of votes. All them others are in your past. That's where it seems yall are the ones living and crowing about.
We're just little ole Arkysuck and yall haven't really dominated us since we have been in the SEC.

[Pell City Tiger]

Except everyone that attended a game this year wearing something houndstooth.

bammer fans have never been observed wearing houndstooth.

Or so I've read.

[Pell City Tiger]

If yall are so great, why haven't you won more than 1 NC since the BCS started?

Because, from 1992 up until 2008, they've been recovering from probation.

I read that somewhere, too.

[Birmingham]

If yall are so great, why haven't you won more than 1 NC since the BCS started? I can't read this without attaching a tobacco spittin' southern accent.  That's 1 ever that was won on the field and not the results of votes. All them others are in your past.  Seriously?  If you're the current National Champions, how is it possible for "all them others" to not be in the past?  That's where it seems yall are the ones living and crowing about. What the fuck does this sentence even mean????
We're just little ole Arkysuck and yall haven't really dominated us since we have been in the SEC.  I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and just say you're drunk right now.

Who the hell let AuburnChopper sign in under boartitz screen name?  Shit looks like it was written by a 5 year old.  First of all, why is the fan of a team that's only won .5 a National Championship in the last 140 years asking why Alabama's only won 1 in the last 12?  2nd of all, I don't know what you consider dominating but Alabama has a winning record against every team in the SEC, including a 13-7 record over Arkansas.  Why are you running your mouth again?

How many of those wins have yall had taken away because you were fucking cheating?
I smoke. Don't dip or chaw.
I don't brag about how good we were. I'm real fucking optimistic about how good we will be now that we have a good head coach.
I'll bet you a gallon of local BBQ sauce that we beat yall's bammerfootball ass this season. Put up or shut the fuck up.

[Birmingham]

I don't brag about how good we were.

ummm... isn't that like a fag not bragging about all the poon he gets?

You might want to wait until Arky keeps it closer than 4 scores for a year or so before you make that bet, titz. That's cool that you're confident, but I think Saban has Petrino pretty much figured out. What does Arkansas have this season that they didn't have last season that is going to change the game all that much? If anything, I think the change in Alabama's secondary is going to change things more than anything Arkansas will do. Not trying to be cocky, but damn....Alabama has punked you guys these past two years. Say what you want about Nutt, but the Arky game always scared the shit out of me because Alabama fans knew we were going to get all we wanted and more.

[boartitz]

Say what YOU want about Nutt. He's the sorry piece of shit that left us in the shape to get punked the last 2 years. He knew when to bail.

[Birmingham]

Too late, RWS, he already made the bet.  Which I accept while asking if we are seriously betting BBQ sauce.  Either way, I'm good for it.

[Pell City Tiger]

Sounds like you've got yourself a double down, boartitz. I'm not too sure these clowns have anything that will match your BBQ sauce wager - unless you're into gubmint assistance vouchers or vials of crystal meth.
