Kind of makes you cry when you think about what Mike Price did to himself :lol:

You know, even I could be persuaded for a guaranteed 32 million to leave the sanctity of retirement :wink:

Cripes. This means I am going to have to deal with the press all week and their endless questions about whether or not I will take the Dolphins head coaching job.

We made a new rule -- I don't talk about rumors about other jobs during my press conferences, okay?!

One thing he definitely needs now is a great tax accountant :wink: I mean, unless that whole thing is deferred, he hits the alternate minimum tax after 150k for a couple still. I don't know for sure as I've haven't begun on this year's taxes yet.

I'm glad he took it. I like seeing the good coaches in college, not in the NFL.

Well this makes the SEC even tougher. Wont be seeing any of these teams competing for a national title again any time soon.

Well, as Dean Alexander just said on SportsNuts, I guess this means Saban is not in the running for the Sac State job! I wonder when Sac State is going to name a sucker, I mean Coach, for their team???

Let's wait a while before we annoint Saban as, Nick "The Bear Too" Saban.

Not only does he have to compete for the all the SEC coaches he left behind a couple year ago, he now has to compete with Urban Meyer, and a "pretty good" coach at LSU still.

There's a reason that Alabama is not, "BAMA" anymore.

'bama got a good one, don't really care for the way he handles the whole situation though, didn't seem to show much class on his part. kinda acted like a griz fan now that i think about it :D
