Bourbon Steak great ambiance, amazing view, food is pricey but good. It's great for anniversary.

Kane Prime has an elite menu.

Oak, STK, Etch, Husk, The Southern are all good too.

For a more quaint but romantic experience I'd offer Cork & Cow in downtown Franklin. There's a wine bar down there and Gray's for pre dinner drink. Walk around downtown Franklin. Women like it.

Didn’t have anything to do with anything.

Hitters being inpatient and swinging at bad pitches + pitchers coming back down to earth is what has cost the Vols the last 2 games.

It’s baseball. It happens. No one wins every game.

Only thing I dislike is how Vol hitters seem to b*tch about half of the strikes called against them. Looks like they’re flustered.

The umps have sucked the last two games.

So many ridiculous points to unpack in that.

Saban concerned about competitive balance in college football? Look at the CFP participants since the playoffs started and tell me if the old system was competitively balanced. I'd argue the CFP pre-NIL era is the most unbalanced college football has been in my lifetime. I think it's very telling that him and Dabo are the biggest whiners so far. They know the NIL threatens their perch at the top.

The highest paid coach in college football arguing for equal pay among players. Why not equal pay among coaches? That would be just a fair as what he's proposing.

A coach making $9.7M a year complaining there's no salary cap for the players. Is there a salary cap for the coaches? What's his position on implementing one.

Saban complaining about teams making deals with high school players to go their school one year after making a $1M deal for his starting QB.

All this when the players aren't getting any real cut from the actual revenue of the sport via tickets and donations to the University. It's really wild to see filthy rich coaches complaining when their players start to get a cut.

And I didn't even get into the under the table payments he's almost certainly been making. If he was already paying them previously his only reason for opposing payments now would be because others can do it now too.

Well said, he wants the players to have a salary cap just so his under the table payment system will never miss a beat. And Alabama will continue to dominate the recruiting. He’s a cheater and always has been.

I almost forgot BROWNS DINER !!!! The Best burger in town and it's been in business for almost 100 years plus it has Nashville's oldest beer license.....yes it is a Beer Joint in every sense of the word but it is really, really good . There are tons of foofoo burger joints but just for a GREAT Old Fashioned Hamburger it would be hard to do better. Rotiers was great as well but sadly they closed it down recently after about 75 years. Someone bought their building and wouldn't renew a lease......."progress", all over Nashville.

The staff has been phenomenal. Last night was the most runs given up in an SEC game- 6…and 1 was unearned and probably another is saved without the error.
