My premise: Jim Carville's hyperpole

Points:
1. PF knew it was hyperbole and that JC was not "really" comparing SEC to Saudi Arabia;

2. If JC had instead brought up the Raekwon Davis' prolonged-punching of U of Missouri's Templeton with an official looking and NO FLAG THROWN, EVEN IF THERE WAS A RETROACTIVE SUSPENSION OF Davis, it took the media to get justice

3. If JC had pointed to the vicious hit on Tennessee's Guarantano and no targeting was called

4. There is a pattern of bias, and the national media has pointed to this pattern, in the past and TODAY but there seems to be no thwarting of the SEC Office's bias favoring Alabama

5. The numerous incidents of calls favoring Alabama; documented in videos and game graphics to point out how there is an interminable official-overlooking of egregious Alabama dirty play and simultaneous "momementum changing penalties" against Alabama's opponents.

PF let me talk uninterrupted for over 3 minutes and he condescendingly used the "I understand the frustration but I don't believe the officials...yatta yatta" tact.

PF went on to admit that this is believed by many but trivialized the complaint.

PF trivialized any of the ESPN/SECNetwork critics and he keeps his job to cover for the SEC's Fair-Haired.

I only wanted to reach the regional audience and was successful in DOING SO.....

You're too invested in Paul Finebaum.

Today I watched and definitely do not watch regularly

I did get to speak to those who tune in regionally/nationally. I made my point: SEC sanctions the bias for Alabama and they do not intend to stop. Perhaps I elicited a thought process that will maybe changes the Bama-Cheating-Trajectory!!

AMEN

If it could add some eyes to what goes on it would help. It’s not just against us either.

Paul has already admitted on the air that he knows the officials personally and that Steve Shaw used to be his neighbor.

Everything he says regarding this situation can be questioned because he has a "conflict of interest". That phrase seems to mean nothing to Paul and his cronies. Or the SEC for that matter.

Was actually listening to this when the call was made and while I knew most of what you were trying to say I could hardly understand either from poor cell service or just being on a cell phone in general. I wish landlines were used when calling into shows cause it's so much cleaner on the tv. Eventho most folks don't even own a house phone anymore including me

Could have also brought up the Luther Davis cancelled checks. The list just gets longer every year.

I have not watched him in months. Decided to put him on for a few minutes. In that few minutes I heard Paul admit that he's buddies with the officials and that we should just trust that Shaw is a good dude because he used to be his neighbor.

Funny how they don't allow refs to officiate the games their alma maters play in because of a perceived conflict of interest. But they'll allow the guy who hires them, signs their paychecks, oversees rule enforcement, rule changes, etc to have a conflict of interest. Interesting...

I call under the pen name, “Mike from Mobile.”

Mike=Mike the Tiger
Mobile=The only City in Alabama that contains more LSU fans than Bama fans.

I had a motive: Speak to anyone who is listening to PF, to consider how his show, SECN, SEC Office, SEC Officials....are in the tank for Alabama.

You do not hear Alabama complain..........unless they lose. They have used all "resources" to recruit teams that the whole SEC cannot match in TOTAL TALENT.

There are reason$ they recruit so well.........and everyone know$ tho$e!!

People can trash our fanbase all they want to over the targeting.. but they'll all be thanking us when the NCAA is forced to make a change. If LSU fans are responsible for that change; I'm happy.
