So you want to play in the SEC?

Who's still using Bear Bryant as a reference?

He's yesterday's news, Bammer is controlled by The Dark Lord now.

Here's more from SEC Media Days: http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2013 ... t_500.html

Saban = Hitler. Roll Fuckin' Tide.

Let me see if I've got this straight. A kid from the generation that thinks the world began when they were born, or at least when ESPN came into existence, has never heard of a coach, albeit a legendary one, who died a good decade or so before he was even born.

And this is newsworthy, why, exactly?

I realize that part of the reason ND hasn't been terribly successful of late is that when we talk about the Four Horsemen, Rockne, Win one for the Gipper, etc., we might as well be speaking a foreign language to the kids today. If the SEC! SEC! SEC! crowd can't see that, you guys must take your football even more seriously than I do.

It's Bear Bryant, not some footnote dickslap like Mike DuBose. I would hope most any kid playing the game today has at least heard the name at some point. Besides, don't coaches typically send their best & brightest to Media Days? You know, so when they get in front of a microphone, they don't say stupid shit like this? I mean, yikes.

The only thing that could do to make them take SEC history less seriously is make it a school subject.

I would wager that there is a good portion of ND's team that think Lou Holtz has always been the crazy old man on ESPN, and don't realize he coached at their school. Even less probably know who Ara Parseghian, Frank Leahy and Knute Rockne are.

you think any ND kids know who Faust is?

[Killian]

Was Faust one of the ND coaches Bear never beat? Or was that just Ara and Devine?

Please don't bring that up. Please.

Small straws for me to grasp, Sam. Small straws.
