Garbage Time Part Two: Todd Chimes In, Vulgarity Ensues

Brian responds, and he's still a dick: Issue #2. Nick Saban has taken the concept of oversigning and stretched it unto its breaking point. This is a nasty, filthy practice only undertaken by a program that couldn't really give a crap about the idea of a mutual ...

Snake Oil: More On Over-signing
Published 2/16/2008 by Pete Holiday at FanHouse
... . Brian took Round Two to his personal blog, MGOBLOG, and his post is most certainly neither work-safe nor child-friendly. The one good thing about Brian's post, is he more clearly enumerates his points. The bad thing is that he failed to do so without resorting to something on the order of an ad hominem every other paragraph, which tends to make him sound like a petulant child [Enter: The FanHouse Baby] as opposed to the college football analyst that he is known in the blog world to be. ...

... 2. Cook's response to OTS's rebuttal devolved into the kind of condescending assault on the intellectual and moral worth of an entire state that we should have expected from him, all while being logically bankrupt itself. ...

BLOG FIGHT!
Published 2/19/2008 by Paterno Lives! at The Big Eleventh
... one very big mistake here: criticizing the Bama program. Several long and drawn out posts from Bama Nation followed. Choose the response that best fits your taste: Are you a civil fan of polite prose? I suggest this. (Remember: We are still talking about Bama fans) Prefer vulgarity? Here. Won't read a blog unless they imbed good looking women? I've got that too. More Bama-Bashing from Brian? Comes in two flavors! Profanity and Realization. Remember when no one would throw the ...

Road to Recovery: Alabama

... the depth chart. `Bama wasn't landing top tier recruits before Saban rode in last year, and of those it did bag, the only one who's lived up to his stud projection is Andre Smith. The best of Shula's crews otherwise are just serviceable starters, guys like Wilson and Antoine Caldwell. The roster next year will have experience and talent, but they'll be mutually exclusive features until Saban's li'l killers get a little fuzz on their faces. (That is, assuming Saban figures some way to fit them all into an overflowing locker room). ...

Soapbox: Recruiting Wounds, Reopened
Published 4/17/2008 by SMQ <info@sundaymorningqb.com> at Sunday Morning Quarterback: Front Page Posts
Way on back when (like, February, ages in blog years), typically erudite Brian Cook put up a post under his AOL mugshot in which, drawing on Joe Tiller's jab at Rich Rodriguez, he called Nick Saban a "snake oil salesman" for signing a bulging incoming class that could never fit through NCAA-regulated doors. Inevitably, as is natural law when Big Ten types condescend to wag their fingers at the Dirty South, vitriol and minor pandemonium ensued. I got e-mails about the impending feud before I even read the first shots, and one phone ...

A Message from Don King

... (Background here, here, here, here, and here) Folks, this is Don King, boxing promoter extraordinaire.  I've been in retirement now for a couple of years, enjoying my home in Boca and my condo in Vegas, all PURCHASED with the PROCEEDS of the PUGILISTIC POWER of IRON MIKE TYSON.  ONLY IN AMERICA, BABY! But recent events have led me to RECONSIDER my RATIONALE for RETIRING from the ROCK-'EM SOCK-'EM, ROCK-A-TILL-YOU-A-DROP-A world of fight promotion.  When I left, there wasn't a heavyweight fight on ...

Brian Cook is, Among Other Things, a Coward and a Liar

... year of eligibility by transferring if things aren't to your liking. Either way, the simple fact that Farmer's decisions at the impetuous age of 18 were a little impulsive is the most likely culprit here, not a cold hearted decision made by a calculating opportunist who sees his players as nothing more than pawns in his vicious campaign of self aggrandizement. But hey, when your earlier proclamations of chicanery and unfair dealings quickly dry up and those barely literate rednecks which you consider beneath yourself because they aren't Michigan men start turning out ...
