I dont know if this has been posted yet, I looked around (a little bit) anyway, this guy is taking his life too seriously!

FOX Sports on MSN - COLLEGE FOOTBALL - Saban says 'Bama loss a 'catastrophic event'

He probably thinks his upcoming game against Aurburn is Armagedden!

In alabama, many believe losing to louisiana monroe is a catastrophe beyond description.

I think having to live in Bammerland is causing him to lose his mind.

I would love to see Bama get Destroyed by Auburn.

I love his spokesman, reminds me of the PC PR Lady from the "Get a Mac" ads.

Apple - Get a Mac

How dose Saban get some of our top recruits. This man will lie to himself and his word is not worth a spit

Yeah I liked the PC covering after he was done. The Hillary political machine was about to go after him!

I had a friend commit to UT, then sign with UK after talking to Bassett, the recruiter in the days of Hal Mumme. My friend was an o-lineman, and he told me it was hard to turn down their offers, he said they had him believing he could play QB if he wanted to (not that far of a stretch with Laurinzen.)

Alot of football recruiters are not much different than time-share salesmen.

well it does sound like he is overdoing it a little. although a little bizzare he is trying to come up with something to give his team hope they can win vs aburn and overcome that horrible loss. It may be over the top but would you rather him say we are going to work like heck to get better.

Honestly I would rather have the work like heck speech than compare losing to an inferior opponent to that of events that cost people their lives.

At least we only pay our coach $2 Million to occasionally lose to inferior opponents. I couldn't imagine paying a coach $4 million for a loss to the likes of Louisiana-Monroe.

yes I agree with you there and I did say I thought it was bizzare. I think he had the right general idea but went to far with it. I wouldnt recommend phil go that far but would like to see him try something..
