    Would you sacrifice SEC championship for National Championship

    Followup questions: Many people (more than a few on here) believe you are not the true national champion if you don't win your own division/conference. 1. Do you care that people will place an asterisk next to the title? 2. If you were one on here who did not believe Alabama deserved the title...

    David Stewart likely done

    I graduated high school with him in Moulton. Genuine guy. I don't think he ever planned to have a long career and wouldn't have wanted to be further from home than Nashville anyway. Now he can go back home and farm with his family.

    It's the yearly "damn, I almost screwed up" game from Mullen.

    Please tell me, what were our "back to back big games"?

    Gottfried got NC State doing well, now John Brady has Ark State

    Twice this has been said and both times it was a false statement. Not going to take up for Gottfried because that was a horrible collapse, but they still made the NCAA tourney that year.

    NBA guys LBJ vs MJ

    I agree with you regarding what LeBron has done to the perception as of late. He has at least made people question the possibility. Its not there yet though. I wonder if LeBron's effect on the game will be felt as long as Jordan's after he is done playing....

    NBA guys LBJ vs MJ

    LeBron's "Size" Argument I am in the Jordan corner and will admit that I may never be without bias. However, Does the argument that LeBron's supporters use in this debate not also point to how much more dominant MJ was in his day? Everyone says LeBron is bigger, faster, stronger than anyone...

    NBA guys LBJ vs MJ

    Your first statements are completely false. 1. MJ won his first title in year 7. He won his second in year 8. He also missed more than 75% of his second year in the league. 2. The Bulls prior to Jordan was equivalent to the Cavs prior to LeBron. Each had only made the playoffs once in the...

    OT - Homeowners Associations: love 'em or hate 'em?

    This is the biggest issue I have with my HOA. Our common area consists of about 2-3 total acres of land, which is only an open grassy area that requires to be mowed and kept during the growing season. I just want to know what my money goes toward throughout the year. I don't think that's too...

    Mullen's Offense

    One thing to consider when looking at these numbers is the strength of defenses played between the two years. This makes a big difference in offensive production. I am looking specifically at SEC opponents since OOC opponents in these two years to make things even. In 2010, the average "Total...

    Revisiting a Spring Topic: Starkville Improvements

    It was the idea of the State of Alabama's Retirement System to build the Trail. They brought in Sunbelt to construct the project, but it was funded by the retirement system. I believe Sunbelt manages everything with the Trail, but in the end, it is a State investment and was from the start.

    Besides the michael jordan effect...what reason did basketball as a sport COMPLETELY abandon

    Besides the michael jordan effect...what reason did basketball as a sport COMPLETELY abandon It is really my only disgust with today's rules. I like that the NCAA has enacted the under the basket rule like the NBA. I also thought the NBA had enacted a rule that punished intentional flopping...

    4 timeouts left...not used at all..this team

    But it seems like one thing you would never do with lacking depth/starters playing heavy minutes is to pocket your time outs. I understand you want to have a few late in the game in case of emergency, but it seems like you would take a few more throughout the game to give the main guys at least...

    Jason Whitlock should be fired for his comments about Lin. He would certainly... I thought it was a funny comment and would normally have no problem with this. The PC police that demand people to step down over off-color jokes get on my nerves. However, it does seem that the backlash is a...
