Re: Comments from Saban
It's one thing for a coach, even if it's CNS to say, "I'm done...things are different now." I suspect he'll eventually get to that point, but I hope it's a few more years down the pipe.
But I'm glad sports change. I played high school basketball in the late 80's and saw how the first year the 3 point shot was added changed the game....and it was for the better! Yes, it was better for me, as a shooting guard, but it also has made the game more exciting.
Same could be said with football during many eras change.
Hard helmets and facemasks changed the game for the better.
The addition of the forward pass...
The wishbone....
The fun n gun...
The spread....I may not like it but it's making the game more exciting for some...
Now, the college football playoff!
If you want to quit watching because of these changes it is your business but I'll gripe, if necessary, but I'll keep on watching (and I suspect most of you will too)!!!
