For those of you unfortunate enough to be stuck inside on a gorgeous day like this, here are a few links that will hopefully keep your interest for the remainder.
(As an aside: I'm currently watching "Dr. Strangelove" on TCM, and just like I remembered, it's at once both hilarious and terrifying. I often wonder if we shouldn't show this to all of our federal leaders on a weekly basis. And the hilarity of the title was enough inspiration for the best college football blog we currently have. So there's that.)
— First off, a few preview stories: first, Fox's Pete Flutak says you shouldn't sleep on Alabama as a national contender; second, check out this doofus who doubts 'Bama in 2009.
(Whoops, that's me. My bad.)
— Having fun with Nick Saban: Ray Melick pokes fun at Coach's latest rant, and the guys at Tower answer a few questions for players who might be confused by media reports. In a related story, major media outlets are fighting for rights belonging to them (and to the fans) with the SEC.
— OTS has a fantastic scorecard for your second preseason scrimmage. Which, of course, we're not allowed into, because we might speculate and hurt the players. Or something. Also, Christopher Walsh takes a look at the defense.
— Some AU-related stuff: ESPN's Chris Low visited with Gene (No Chance) Chizik) this week: here are parts one and two of that interview. Also, Lee Ziemba says the Tiger locker room needed a change from the Tuberville era, which is frankly what every player says anytime a new coach takes over.
— Elsewhere: Mark Schlabach has called the SEC East race in 2009 already (hey man, we got here first); UGA coaches are feeling the economy's effects; BCS Guru checks in with his BlogPoll ballot; and Mr. CFB has two solid entries for this week, about the rigors of preseason practice and 5 SEC players who will be missed in '09.
after reading this post, I really excpected it to end with "It's all up next here on Sportsnight on CSC, so stick around."
ReplyDeleteLee Ziemba...doesn't he suck?
ReplyDeleteI believe he's the guy who went after Glenn Dorsey's knees two years ago.
ReplyDeleteSo ... no?
