Great game plan 'Bama. Take out the other team's best player in the first five minutes

[taterguy]

Thanks for reminding us that the biggest and the meanest get to make the rules.

1. Aww

:nopity:

[joeybee12]

2. Their game plan was buy off the refs in the TN game so they could

get a shot like this.

[lazarus]

8. and again I'll ask you

for specifics. Specific calls.

[joeybee12]

12. Do a search...I'm too lazy today...

...it was a specific call that led to a score...not just nebulous bad calls...like Texas getting an extra second to kick their field goal over Nebraska.

[lazarus]

15. I'm not doing a search

to support your point. That's your job. You've been making this claim all over the place, but have nothing to back it up.

[BOSSHOG]

40. Texas didn't get an extra second

and I'm waiting for the bad call in the TN game. And a complete review of all calls made for or against TN. Maybe you need some rest Joey. Maybe an institution in the Bear Bryant Rest Home for Wayward Fans of Wayward Programs.

9. spoken like a true sour grapes vol n/t

[joeybee12]

14. Trust me, I hate TN...but I hate the BCS mafia more...n/t

[ProdigalJunkMail]

20. yeah...Bama bought off the refs...nice charge you cannot back up n/t

3. McElroy played with a cracked rib

PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy played the national championship game with a hairline crack in at least one rib.

[taterguy]

5. Most people don't throw with their rib

:eyes:

[hobbit709]

11. Ever try throwing something with a cracked rib/

You'll soon wish you hadn't thought of trying.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

13. shhhh...he's bitter n/t

[taterguy]

16. Bitter / sour. Make up your damn mind

[ProdigalJunkMail]

18. ah the logic ... no point to your post so you try to get cute... n/t

[madinmaryland]

30. Lighten up, Francis. Don't try and shift the subject from the FAILURE called the Tennessee

Volunteers.

:D

[Captain Hilts]

22. When's the last time you threw something a distance over 4ft away from you?

What a stupid comment.

[madrchsod]

4. do`t know about that but

sure made the game suck. i felt sorry for the "true freshman" qb....

[COLGATE4]

6. Sour grapes

[ProdigalJunkMail]

7. yeah...like the point to tackling him was to 'take him out'

how pathetic of you...sorry you didn't like the outcome. perhaps you should focus more on sports like table tennis where people are less likely to get injured.

sP

[taterguy]

10. Sorry you don't have reading comprehension skills

I liked the outcome.

It's a reminder to us all that the biggest and meanest get to make the rules.

That's an important life lesson.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

17. right...cause obama is big and mean

and so is nancy pelosi...harry reid...the rest of the congressional democratic caucus...interesting mindset you have. your comment about the 'game plan' of Alabama and how it reminds you who gets to make the rules is laughable. i would wager that not one young man on that field gets to make any rules and likely will not. most of them will go on to regular jobs...a few will go pro and have a very short career...a few will have good careers in the pros...all the while not making the rules. what a fucking stupid thing for you to post...go cry about some sport you can draw a valid analogy with...

38. Hangnails are a wicked bad problem for ping pong players

So don't go blowing off their susceptibility to injuries.

:headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

[rd_kent]

19. Awww. Somone isn't happy about who won.

[JVS]

21. It's a winner!

[TheCowsCameHome]

23. I thought this was about OBama beating Gramps last year.

Silly me.

[Onceuponalife]

35. No, I'm sure OP would have said "Obummer" if he meant Barack.

[notesdev]

24. Was this your first time watching football?

Because generally that's how it goes, the biggest and meanest walk off victorious.

[taterguy]

26. And that's why football is so important

To remind us who makes the rules

[ProdigalJunkMail]

31. utter and complete tripe

bullshit...in what world? have you seen who runs corporations? have you seen who holds the power in government? they are vastly NOT the biggest and meanest people...your view is idiotic.

sP

[Starbucks Anarchist]

25. I thought "Bama" was referring to Obama.

:rofl:

[piedmont]

27. Texas' QB got injured by a fairly routine tackle by Bama standards.

Alabama's QB was playing with two fractured ribs. None of the players on the field made the rules-- they just played by them.

[taterguy]

28. What the fuck is a "fairl"?

[ProdigalJunkMail]

32. it's called a typo...

god knows YOU have never made what...what a tool!

sP

[dark forest]

29. Nothing is ever an accident

Nothing bad ever happens if only every body plays by the rules.

Sure.

Why didn't Texas have a Plan B?

[many a good man]

33. The football gods were smiling on Alabammy

Or were they the football demons?

Nevertheless, the gods smote Texas and their false idol QB.

[quickesst]

34. I don't know....

...but the Longhorns may have as a team a better grade point average than the Crimson Tide. Perhaps they should have simply compared the two, and crowned the national champion. Now that would have been exciting. Thanks.

[enuegii]

36. Hell, why compare the whole teams' GPAs?

Just compare those of the two starting quarterbacks.
Might come out more crimson than orange, though. Apparently, McElroy has been invited to apply for the Rhodes Scholarship.

[Syrinx]

37. what a stupid comment

McCoy was injured by a clean hit. I'm sorry that he was injured, and I wish he had not been. But there was nothing dirty, in the slightest, in that hit. Football is a rough game.

[Iggo]

39. The defense's job is to knock the opposing quarterback out of the game.

That's why he has a ton of guys protecting him.

[BOSSHOG]

41. Alabama is bigger and meaner then Texas?

I was watching from far away but the Texas backup QB outplayed the Bama starter and yet, lo and behold, The SEC Rep still kicked ass. For the fourth year in a row.
