Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2009
I have cooled off quite a bit since Saturday. But in this conference that is under so much scrutiny,
with their 3 BILLION dollar TV deal, I am just saddened that competent officials with the benefit of slo-mo replay, are still making the wrong calls. Then you have the Mt. Cody helmet no-call, the bull$hit celebration calls. These calls are RIDICULOUS. It has me fatigued and dis-interested. And if anybody thought the conspiracy theories would die down, well, there is little chance of that now. When I cap on your teams, it is all in fun. That's why this thread is here. And like I said, it is a sad commentary on the state of affairs in the BCS that I could care less who wins the title now. I remember fondly when it was all about what bowl you went to, and very few teams thought much of their chances to win a national championship. Maybe it doesn't say much for my fan-ness. I have always stated i am an Alabama fan until they play LSU and so i am also hoping for a good showing in ATL. And thank goodness I have months to get over it, or i would have a tough time holding down my supper watching that game. Roll Tide. And Power...I don't hate the gators, I hate YOU for taking my cigars...... |

very much under a national microscope. I could care less how it affected my team. If a team can't play PAST bad calls, they don't deserve to be thought of as elite. I am saying that it is embarassing, and there are people who say that it borders on criminal. |

Re: Official SEC Football Thread 2009
You act as if bad calls are a new thing when in fact they aren't. It is just the technology and information highways that proliferate opinions these days. Take the Peterson play from Saturday and put that same play back 20 years. The play is ruled incomplete on the field and then the next snap is run. Over and done. Now, we have 8 million cameras with slo mo, zoom, all kinds of crap and sometimes peoples opinions differ and what do they do, go to the innerwebs or blogs or sports "shows" and bicker and harp about it for weeks.
Bad calls suck, they really do. But I'm so sick of this conspiracy crap. Come on people, conspiracy? Really? |

if not kicked off the team. Here in TN, though, you hear alot about how coaches go into kids' homes and tell their parents that they are going to look after their kids if they will just sign on, and this is something that the coach is going to have to guide his players through. Blabla, I say eject thugs for good, make a point. But you are likely looking at a 3 game suspension. The joke here in TN on the radio is, "Kiffen needs to go back to the film room and work on fundamentals..."this is how you hold the gun. Speak up in a loud, clear voice, THIS is a robbery. Everybody on the floor." As for the confused look from Powersmoker, I have to clarify. LSU #1, no doubt or question. But LSU is not always on TV, so when Bama is on, I pull for Bama UNLESS they are playing LSU. My Bama roots go back to the early 70's, and that will not change. Cause in fact as a kid I was a Tulane fan and a Bama fan. Did not like LSU. Where I am from you don't like LSU and Tulane, it's one or the other. I GREW into LSU fan-ness in the USAF. As for Rizzle, that's an apples and oranges argument. When technology advances, everything advances along with it. You are right, this would not have been a concern 20 years ago, but now we have it, and a one-frame difference in video is that hair-thin margin that makes the difference. Sure, replay drags everything down, and artificially arbitrates these fluid calls that we never had to question before, just go on to the next snap and suck it up. But we ARE HERE NOW, and there is no getting around it. And if you read a few pages back to the day of the "interception" you will see that I was all in favor of just moving on, LSU loses, Bama advances, everybody gets what they wanted all along, Bama vs UF. If a team loses cause of one bad call, they weren't positioned to win it anyway. |

I thought that the celebration call was correct, if we do not want excessive me, me, me celebrations, we ought not have ANY, the old 'give em an inch' syndrome. I shout at the TV everytime a player gets a sack and bolts out of the area pulling his hersey and nodding up and down, I think it is the first step in turning college football into what the $hitty-a$$ NBA has become. LEAD by doing your job, find praise in the huddle and from what the fans are giving you, no need to remind anyone of what you just did. We were watching, idiot. We KNOW you made a great play. Stop being a dumb-a$$. I could go on. Am I a little satisfied that FLA has yet to blow out a good team? Boy, you BET! And that is where I get my "revenge" or get my jollies. There is still no beating them. All I can do is hope the Tide ROLLS. |
