I am a pro-player as anyone but I just saw two ND players that opted out of the bowl game get ting interviewed while ND was currently losing to SCar. What in the heck?!? If I was their teammate I would be pissed. If you don?t want to play in the game don?t come and hog the spotlight. Go and ?prepare for the NFL draft.? Don?t come and lie about how much you love your teammates and your coach.
It sucked I thought!Quote:

I hope they at least paid their own way. I sure as heck wouldn't be footing the bill for them if I was ND.
I read somewhere today where Saban told the players who had entered the portal that they were still welcome to play in the bowl game. Maybe I'm missing something but that I don't get.
I guess I'm getting old but I don't get it either.Quote:

We have given over our culture to selfishness. Hard to believe just 60 years ago the greatest generation lived.
Hard to believe that came from Saban. Guess losing 3 games in one year would be more than he can take!!Quote:

This entire thread just pisses me off at society. And Saban has gotten soft and weak.
It really is sad how soft and weak minded we have become as a society.Quote:

I've raised my kids the way I was raised and now that they're getting older and out on their own they're starting to understand why dad was so tough on them. It's ok to say no. They're appreciative of it.Quote:

It made me smile thinking about that! That would be awesome!!Quote:
