re: Notre Dames sweetheart playoff deal is disgusting.
Posted by FairhopeTider on 8/24/26 at 4:37 pm to RiverCityTider
I don’t hate ND like I used to. Really like Freeman. But no idea why the conferences go along with it. ND doesn’t have any leverage and they get a tangible benefit from their independence.
The conferences should be laser focused on what helps their members. Giving ND a sweetheart deal goes against that. Their AD shouldn’t even have an equal seat at the table in these discussions.

The great thing about the pre-playoff era was it wasn’t all about the Natty. That was obviously big but a team could win 10 games, beat their rivals, win a bowl game, and feel really good about their season.
The sport was defined by the regular season and that is what made it different than every other sport. Sure, the post season and title claim was messy but that was part of what made the sport fun.

It’s really only a matter of time before a judge rules in favor of a player that wants to transfer midseason. At this point, would it surprise anyone?

I’ve always said coaches should have a salary cap
While I think Saban was worth every penny and maybe was even underpaid for the value he brought to the University of Alabama, I think the skyrocketing salaries and absurd buyouts played a big role in ushering in this new era. Most reasonable people could seperate why a coach could earn money but a student couldn’t, the optics of coaches making 8 figures while players didn’t made it a tough defense.

His show was fun 20 years ago just due to the characters but I can’t believe he’s still relevant. He was the first one to figure out you could get ratings/views by triggering Alabama fans.
He knows nothing of substance about the sport. He knows that he can make a hot take and then move on to the next hot take before anyone remembers he was wrong.
Everytime I make the mistake of turning on his show hoping to hear something of substance, I’m reminded why I don’t listen.

They tried to incorporate him in the Masters coverage last year and Augusta said no thanks. Something tells me they’ll succeed this year after Kelce was allowed to parade around.
I like the guy on Gameday but holy shite are they oversaturating everyone with him.

The good thing about the first episode is that it feels like a totally different universe than Superman. There you had a cartoonish Guy Gardner as the GL fighting inter dimensional giants and such with middle finger projections and comedic eye pokers. The movie had way too much going on and that was part of the problem. When everybody’s super….nobody is.
I’m sure we’ll get some fantastical stuff in this series but the fact that it’s grounded is very appealing. Does it seem like Lex is going to show up and put them in a pocket universe next his ex girlfriend and a row of monkeys posting on Twitter?
That’s why I think Gunn had limited involvement because the development of this project started before he came on board. Otherwise we’d be getting some silly shite forced in. (Still might)

Polls closed in part of the state 2.5 hours ago, and in the other part of the state 1.5 hours ago.

Perfect storm. We were worn out. They were fresh. Half the coaching staff was out the door. We couldn’t finish drives. “Cold weather” Tua was a thing. Also Clemson was damn good.
As for the other speculation about them knowing the plays….no comment.

re: will Alabama use it's national brand to sell a patch on the uni's

Does anyone even know if UA is negotiating with any companies for "patch" money? I hope I'm wrong but I don't have a lot of confidence in the athletic department negotiating these type things.
I said above that we are looking at our options but our deal with Learfield limits them. I was told that until we figure out a way around that, we aren’t going to see a $20 million dollar patch deal.
Hoping the movement of our SEC patch in the fall camp photos means we are confident that something will get done. Last year we didn’t announce the field sponsor until the week of first game so holding out that is the deadline.
Would be a tremendously wasted opportunity to not get a prestigious national brand with a market setting price.

Really good episode. Obviously don’t like the “surprise” ending (that was spoiled weeks ago).
Refuse to believe Gunn had anything to do with this.
