    Saban has had 4 OC's win NC's.  dude was a failure as a head coach and got fired at USC.  I'm not making anything up.  

    Fair enough. If you think he failed as OC this year, safe to say you've got some pretty high expectations.

    Go look at his predecessor at Bama, Mike Locksley. He's 5-12 in two years at Maryland as HC

    So because Mike Lockskley sucked, the poster I was responding to was correct in saying Sark "failed upwards?"

    Did you quote the wrong post?

    it has a chance to be a very low floor and I'm not sold on the potential high upside.  this guy failed upwards.  He has to be the luckiest man on the planet at this point.  Saban is the reason Alabama scores 47 points a game not Sark after Dark.  this is probably the worst of all outcomes.  Urbs is laughing his ass off.  What a disaster.

    Explain how being picked by Saban to be the OC of the most dominant program in football, and then leading that offense to it's most explosive years in program history is "failing up."

    He may end up being a bad hire. No reason to just make shit up because you're unhappy.

    I wasn't complaining about Hermann.  He needed one more year to show he could do it.  Or for Urban Meyer to want to come.  Not for some drunk mediocre OC to replace him.

    I remember people like you being so happy Akers was gone--for McWilliams.  It took us 15 years to recover from that mistake.  And so happy Mack was replaced by Strong.  Guess what?  Mack is in a NY6 game with a basketball school.  And we are on our 3rd coach.

    Herman needed one more year?? 

    After this year?

    And Mack absolutely needed to be fired.

    WTF

    People y’all about him like he is in their class or maybe even more talented. That’s what I mean by most overrated. We know what great looks like. We know what good looks like. And people y’all about him like he’s one or both when he’s not. That’s the point. How far away from what those guys are but he’s talked about like a peer. 

    Is he though? Perhaps. I certainly don't think of him in that league. To me, he was an important, but not key, cog of our team that won a National title. He's emblematic of that teams' loose, carefree style, with speed and flash to boot. He seemed to glide in the open field and you held your breath when he turned a corner, but he was never a consistent threat.

  6. From the LA Times today re: the covid surge.

    Quote

    Patients were “piled in administrative hallways, stuffed in the corners, hanging over chairs,” said one healthcare worker, who asked for anonymity out of fear of retribution. When the emergency room ran out of crevices, staffers began treating people right in the waiting room.

    It was like practicing Civil War medicine. It was the worst shift of my life,” the worker said.

    Quote

    Family members were screaming, ‘He’s dying. Aren’t you going to help him?’” the healthcare worker said. “We looked at each other and said, ‘Are we gonna pull oxygen off of this lady to give it to someone else?’”

    There are like 7 beds available in a county of 10 million+ and if you drive around, you'd think its a normal Wednesday in December.

    Two points.  First, having met both Ms. Wells and Ms. Louise, unless you're into substance-abused and crazy, you'd pick Ginger.  And farm girls (MA) like to do it a lot but lack imagination.  Actresses know all kinds of snaky sack stuff.

    New here?

    I regret I pulled this thread off topic to rail against the GOP's efforts to destroy our social safety net and justifying that local churches will pick up the slack of $1 trillion+ of spending for 80+ federal welfare programs. 

    Don't forget about Barstool Sports! Apparently they have raised a total of  . . . 6 million dollars. That should make a dent in things.
