It's amazing to see so much hubris from grumpy CBs who think they know better

Winning somehow manages to entertain most enough to produce those millions

I can't make sense of that. Where does money come from at losing programs?

The fans he is talking about are customers not shareholders and he doesn’t care

Who keeps paying to watch entertainment that doesn't entertain them?

You find blowouts to be entertaining? If entertainment is the standard shouldn't

That was over the top? Any fan who gets offended by that gentle of a rebuke needs help.

So Saban is allowed to defend coaches and players but fans can’t defend
