BTW, if this is old and anyone wants to do the germans thing or use the search function thing, I will tell you in advance I don't care.

What exactly is hyperbolic about that article?

Or do you mean Saban's hyperbole?

How do you consider these remarks as anything other than hyperbole...

"And yet, sadly, it is impossible not to begin today with one of the worst people in all of sports -- and this takes in a lot of territory -- Alabama football coach Nick Saban."

"he was clearly someone who was meant to coach at the college level where tyrants are applauded as long as they win."

"At that point, even after the LSU loss, Saban was being treated the way he likes to be treated: as the savior."

"That's not a typo, Alabama, coached by the savior, lost to Louisiana-Monroe at home, in the stadium named for Bear Bryant."

You consider this a well presented and balanced article?

How do you dispute any of those remarks? They're all dead on.

Just two weeks before he called Saban's coaching performance "breathtaking."

Finebaum is a jackass who will write anything.

It's an opinion piece, not a news article. And my point is that Feinstein is arguably less hyperbolic than Saban himself was. (Sept. 11th? Come the frick on, Nick.)

Hyperbole is okay when you approve of the point being made, but not when it's used against your coach? It's all a matter of perspective.
