Serious question: is hostessgate an issue anymore?

Ouch! That hurt. :)

Not really.

Hurt? No.

Embarassing? Of course.

Now that we know, by your own reckoning, Spurrier is a better coach than Saban, its looking might grim in this thread for the GoF again.

Keep trying, DVD. A blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in awhile.

Do you see the disconnect now, Gibbs? I know it's been pointed out multiple times to you already, but you misunderstood the original statement. Not only that, but now you won't shut up about it.

Proof positive that UTG has posted his own nonsensical question, and has somehow warped the debate to make everyone else defend it for him. And failing that, it's "Game, Set and Match" for him?

Surely, LSD is easier.

Is this you begging for "The List" again?

I've got it saved. Do you want me to bust it on you again? I'll only go there if you ask - I've punished you enough.

Throw up any list you want with whatever combination of SEC 3rd team freshman all-conference alternates in years divisible by 4 plus NFL draftees in rounds 1, 4, and 5, etc. No one cares.

Not exactly. Not everyone is driven to hate the real world outside the back door.

But YOU don't care. You have an ideology, one indefensible by any metric in the real world, and you don't bloody care what facts there are. And you've demonstrated that for at least two years straight now.

Yeah, you know the list. You know the list all too well. And you know what "the list" will do to you.

I imagine posting that list will have the same effect all your posts do. Everyone will call you a fool. Next you'll claim victory and residence in Supermajorityville. When the reality that you're once again standing completely alone one on side of an argument is brought up you'll let me know I'm missing th real world outside the backdoor. I may have left out a terribly inaccurate catch phrase or two.

If I stand alone, I certainly have the strength to do it. However, it often turns out (not always) I stand in the opinion of the supermajority.

You could, instead, always join us in the supermajority.

I think Spurrier might have Saban head-to-head.

Uh-oh! Let the contradictions begin.

2000 Spurrier whipped him 41 - 9
2001 Spurrier whipped him @ LSU 44 - 15
2010 Spurrier beat him when he was #1 in the nation.

Saban won in 2009 20 - 6

Let me know if I missed one.
Click to expand...

Saban
National titles: 2003, 2009
Sec titles: 2001, 2003, 2009

Spurrier
National title: 1996
SEC titles: 91, 93, 94, 95, 96, 00

Spurrier in his prime, like when he was beating Fulmer almost every year, might have been a better choice, but not today. If you'll notice, he hasn't won anything in a decade, you can see what Saban has done this decade. But, somehow I'm not suprised that you would value some regular season wins more than championships?

You are a walking case study for the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

But don't forget the strength. It is badass to say ridiculous crap on an anonymous message board and pretend you believe it. I mean, seriously badass.

Not sure there's any greater majority on VN than the group that regards you as an imbecile.

Once again the stat that matters is head-to-head. How did he do against Fulmer? Oh I forgot; those wins don’t count because he had better coached teams with more talent.

Boom.

And Spurrier had less talent last year.

Boom.

I thought you might get gun shy after VolDad's attempt to teach me about the Fun n Gun backfired in his face. Glad to see you will still entertain me as you pretzelize yourself.

Doesn't matter how big that group is.

Because they are wrong.

You realize I'm not the same person as VolDad right? Not sure why you're getting all excited here. He may think Spurrier is better, I don't. You were sounding like a parrot with turrets so I thought I'd answer your question so we could move along. If I'm an AD and have the option, in 2011, I'm picking Saban. Show me where I've contradicted myself.

"parrot with turrets" - absolutely brilliant. :) I'm imagining a Godzilla like robot parrot with tank guns.

Saban > Spurrier is fair enough. Since you seemed to be smokin' the same stuff as DVD, I felt it appropriate to link it up.

You're right. After googling it, it is spelled tourrete. I was mistaken. See, admitting when you're wrong is not so bad. I swear, it won't kill you.

I had not heard of the D-K effect. It actually explains a great, great deal. Of course, I've posted in the past regarding how we actually rarely make rational decisions, instead relying on value judgments. That explains a lot too.

@BPV, don't make me pull my wallet out of the bag....

It was better the first time, don't edit it out. Classic.

And I said it was fine to say Saban > Spurrier despite the head-to-head. But DVD doesn't have the same wiggle room. :hi:

"Godzilla?!" exclaimed the man through muffled restraint.
