Al “Rasputin” Snow

Saban knows the power of the draft. It’s one of the reasons he was such a deadly recruiter. He could show recruits all the guys that sat on his bench for two years then went in the first round. Obviously the NIL had changed things because why the fug wouldn’t you go to like Colorado and get paid? i haven’t heard that the quit because of the NIL. Sabans other power was his Rolodex: look how many coaches now were his assistants. It wouldn’t shock me but the guy was 72 years old. Dabo is the main one who has threatened to quit because of the NIL but of course he hasn’t because he’s such a bitch.

Oh absolutely. it’s how people like Jim brown were just able to murder everyone. They were athletes decades ahead of their time. of course back then you could put screws through your helmet so if someone tried to slap you they’d pierce their hand lmao

So I know a guy who works at one of the big youth football academies in Florida. he told a story once that the dolphins problems during that era were all Wayne Huizenga because he was starting to lose it. Nick took the bama job because a.) it was his quickest way out of Miami and b.) it’s probably the best football job in the country, regardless of pro or college. but Saban would never say anything about it because the Huizenga family is VERY influential all over Florida highschool football and if he knifed them it would hurt him recruiting the region at Alabama. maybe we’ll get some stories now that he’s retired but at this point it’s not like he has anything to prove.

Say what you want but I guarantee Alabama doesn’t lose in Nashville if he’s still there Lmao forever

There are great stories from Saban's time in Miami

I mean at this point there are legit concerns about having enough guys to even play Sunday.

If he's open to something like that, he's almost certainly heading back to San Francisco.

he's completely washed and can't even play special teams

brad idzik and it feels like this was part of their agreement to keep the marriage together. He gets a pass for his infidelity (and pinky swears it will never happen again) and she gets 40k to self publish a shitty book that he threw some chapters into to give it some weight. It has a forward from tony dungy of all people. Lizzy is trying to be a motivational speaker so it'd make sense she made him pay for this in exchange for her not ruining him in the eyes of evangelicals. All relationships are transactional after all.

apparently Saleh was about to fire Nathaniel Hackett, who basically does whatever Aaron wants. https://x.com/jjones9/status/1843731147664306325https://x.com/jjones9/status/1843731147664306325 also what aaron wants doesn't really work This is from Ted Ngyuen

he didn't live up to the hype because he blew his knee out his rookie year and required like 3 years to come back to form. When healthy he's a consistent 10 sack a year guy. i don't know if having your career neutered by the field in houston counts as not living up to the hype. dude had microfracture surgery and it's amazing he's done as well as he has.

also it's not stated explicitly but it's pretty clear he drove her into an eating disorder because he'd tell her she was gaining weight and didn't find her attractive anymore and stuff.

This might come across as snobbish but the book isn’t published by like an actual publishing house. It’s some company where you pay like 4k/month for six months and they do all the the typesetting and try to get it through the Amazon algo etc (Amazon doesn’t carry this book btw) This company almost exclusively does book versions of like business success people or whatever. People that made their money selling books about how to make money etc. go to their seminar, pay 1000 bucks for real estate secrets, he signs a book at the end etc. I only mention this because the book is very clearly not edited for content. Like someone threw it into word search to make sure everything was spelled right and that’s it. There are multiple times when Lizzy is describing something and facts are changed to make Dave look better, but like….theyre not changed consistently. when they finally admit their marriage isn’t working (unclear if this is before or after he confesses) she describes him as having gone out drinking with his buddies, but also says he was downstairs praying with his coworkers because she went down to see what the noise was, but when he comes to bed he reeks of cigars and beer. There’s just constant poo like that where a story is cleaned up to make Dave look better but wasn’t done competently, so you can see what it was originally.

Also Dave’s sections are written just like he talks. And specifically like he’s trying to talk himself out of getting in trouble or getting caught. And this guy is so fuging full of poo and just cannot accept blame for anything.

He blamed marital problems on Lizzy not wanting to have threesomes Lizzy was struggling to afford groceries for their kids when he got his start in Seattle (new coaches make like 12 bucks an hour). She was having to beg for food while he was blowing his road trip per diems on strippers and beer the book has a bunch of stuff where they each report their recollection of something. Dave describes himself admitting his infidelity as this tearful, emotional thing where they hugged it out and sobbed etc. she described it as him just shrugging and being like “yeah I cheated on you.” he lied pretty much all the time about how much money he’d make. he describes his first job at USC as being with “the greatest football program in the history of college football.” This is 2009, they went 5-4 in pac10 play, and beat Boston college in the emerald bowl shortly before Pete Carroll fled to avoid sanctions. Another member of the coaching staff was his jerk buddy and it’s pretty clear who it is, though isn’t named.

Oh absolutely. Tepper definitely has a type and it makes perfect sense he’d go back to someone like Rhule. Canales has a lot of the same energy. Tepper is a fuging mark.

Do you wanna keep living in this lie or want to shatter it?

My ex’s brother is an evangelical who frequently does shrooms and he was confiding in me what he experienced in them and I straight up told him to stop until he does some personal work.

There are multiple points where he claims to hear the voice of Jesus forgiving him for betraying his wife.

So before Asheville was destroyed I was working on a Let’s Read about this book for another forum. Im between jobs and have some time, and now I have even more! I actually own and have read most of this…book. It is not good at all. About 70% is written by Lizzy, but neither of these two are writing Great Gatsby any time soon. Dave does not come across well in this at all and frequently, clearly full of poo. You go back and further between pitying Lizzy like “sweetie no what is you doin” to “okay she’s in on this scam too.” It was also published by one of those self publishing outfits and was very clearly not well edited. Is there any interest for me to go into this book on here? There’s a ton of religious stuff but that’s fairly unremarkable. The funny poo is how clearly full of poo Canales is, and how terrible of a liar he is. Like in the first chapter after he gets promoted to Seahawks WR coach, he comes home drunk from god knows where and tells his wife “I was celebrating how great it will be to bring players to our home to show them how great our marriage is.” anyway if there’s interest I’ll post more passages. There’s a lot of funny poo in this book but Dave generally comes across as a scam artist.

What? When?

no one can scheme around players that aren’t NFL caliber. Are you actually David tepper because you sound as stupid as he did talking about Bryce being so good they didn’t need wide receivers. Sam darnold was 11/19 for 164 yards and 1 passing TD. he rushed for another. That’s not carving up by any means, unless we’re comparing him to Bryce. This was also after Bradly Chubb was traded to Miami, the head coach was fired and the entire team had quit. The broncos had only scored 3 points until five minutes left in the fourth. Like what do you expect a defense to do in that situation? what comparison do you think you’re making between broncos defense two year after letting evero go and the panthers now? How do you make any parallel connections? Are you using methamphetamines because poo like that is the kind of connections those people come up with. And what do you mean “maybe” with Luvu? He was the heart and soul of the team. Letting him go was one of the worst personnel management moves in team history. Shades of letting Kevin Greene walk because Richardson didn’t want him wrestling for WCW. Chinn was a capable player. Burns is whatever; him to clowney is probably a lateral move. And FYI are you blaming Derrick Brown for the saints game? Was it his fault the safety missed his assignment on the first td pass? Was it his fault Bryce completely melted down? Youre making stupid arguments. I’m not even sure you d watched any games. Stop fuging posting.

You have to score a ton of points to give up a ton of points. I have a very bad feeling that Canales offense has been figured out (bengals defense is awful) and teams are going to be running out the clock in the second half a lot.

Dj moore had a bunch of bad drops too his rookie year. Some of the guys just have to get used to playing in the nfl and he hasn’t had a ton of snaps with nfl caliber qbs. Remember Dalton was our most of training camp and Bryce was running the 1s for the first two weeks. I he deserves some grace in that regard. what I’m saying is XL will eventually develop into a top tier WR and get traded by tepper for three children in a trench coat.
