Doc, if anyone knew anything about dull, it would certainly be you.

Thanks for another comment that's as brilliant as any you've made.

Well, I know a guy who was at a cookout in CBB's neighborhood after a golf tournament. CBB pulled up on his golf cart, drink in hand, cut off sleeved t-shirt, shorts & flip flops. He joined in the party and went from cup to bottle. He was obnoxious and finally 2 guys from the neighborhood drove him home on his golf cart. The host said, "that's nothing new for that guy".
Just passing along what I was told. But also know a few high rollers who say he
Frequents a Dickson Street haunt quite often and needs a lot of help getting home.

I tended bar on Dickson in 2013. Several nights I poured him 5-6 double vodkas in a short time span, and my double pours were big!!

Also, the place I worked held Kickoff with Coaches in August before the season. When BP's staff was there, BP and all coaches drank water. When B.B. and his staff started, many were drinking whatever they wanted. Diff culture for sure

Self explanatory.  Long got an AP request for comment on Bert's future.  He asked a subordinate advice on how to respond.

Thanks. You do realize you didn't even have to chime in in the first place, right? So until you enlighten us with something that actually has a reason for you to speak, why not just type in code or something? Try using the $&@%* buttons, that can be quite entertaining.

I'll choose academics over athletics every day of the week, and twice on Sundays.

But there's no reason we can't have both, and both is my expectation. Bret got the one, and has failed on the other. So it's time to try something else.

As for [CENSORED]: either have the bones to say it, or the vocabulary to work around it.

I bet we want have any problems scheduling Sunbelt teams for our OOC games in the near future.  They will all be dreaming of heroic upsets.
Or they will all line up to book us as a rent-a-win for their homecoming games.

So sounds like our coach had/has  a drinking problem. Brilliant!

You love mediocrity, which equates to loving half erections.

Unfortunately, we're not even mediocre.

We had to have a big freshman quarterback and a fast young kid out of Little Rock bail us out to keep us from losing to one of the worst teams in D1 football.

LZH, we are one of the worst teams in all of college football. If we're not, then we're one of the worst if not the absolutely worst coached team in all of college football.

Doc, my thread was purely driven by emotion. But I am by nature a salesman. If you don't want to get beat down in a thread, use what you know. You don't go into a sales meeting without already covering every possible response or question. Simple as that. Besides, it does help that I played the game and have followed pretty closely over the past 30 years. Don't take it so personal, just remember you chimed in first.

Great; another excuse. Hope he doesn't "get treatment" before he leaves, because we will not be able to fire him while he's getting help.

No worse than if we stick with the crap we have. At least hope comes with the next guy.

I think most of our drinking habits have increased since BB got here. Maybe it is just a fad or something.

That's a totally legitimate concern, but we still have to get rid of B.B. He couldn't win back enough fans or regain enough credibility in the next 18 months. Every win now will be considered luck or it won't be a good enough win.

I don't claim to be the sharpest knife in the sink, but I have said since day one that Brett Bielma is not a leader. We are only going to get worse the longer he stays.

Just remember no one tells me not to "chime in."  I said what I think and whoever doesn't like it can just not like it.  And it's no fun chatting on a thread unless you can strongly disagree. Carry on.

I never suggested that you shouldn't chime in. You just called me out so I responded. Say whatever you wanna say. It's why we're here. But don't get the red ass when I respond in a way that rubs you wrong.

Long is lazy and has proven he doesn't care about winning. The chancellor needs to be on the hot seat for not doing his job. What a joke.

Long has been making over $1,000,000 a year, highest paid state athletic director in the SEC.
