Bulldogs Close Practice for fear of Stealing Signals!

[Ldlane]

Per ESPN....

"It's the Belichick rule," the Georgia official said. "We've been skunked in the past. We know it because of the way some teams have reacted to our [offensive] plays in a few games. We're trying to make sure it doesn't happen again."

Alabama coach Nick Saban, in his first season coaching the Crimson Tide, worked four seasons as Belichick's defensive coordinator with the Cleveland Browns from 1991-94.

Well, heavens, we don't have Bill Belichick for our coach.

There's always tall buildings and the Video man in the grassy knoll.

Don't forget Area 51 in Roswell...New Mexico...not Georgia.

"Real men" don't care who steals their signals. For four years, our OL gave away pass or run by their stance. Did we complain and close practice. Oh, yeah, I guess we did...

Re: Bulldogs Close Practice to get the OL,WR,&LB attention Most Likely

We get good or even mediocre Oline play, catch 90+% of catchable balls, and LBs play with even so-so recognition and we'll be very tough.

We don't have a cr@ppy OL as someone stated - we are just not consistent.
Look at the LSU Oline, Searles is the OLine coach that put that together and he's at UGA now - its just a matter of time...

Saturday will be interesting

Whoops - curfew

Don't know who here said your OL was crappy, but he's crazy...

BEES!!!

I think some people are just getting paranoid now.

What is this, the Chick-Fil-A bowl or something?:wink:

The AJC has an article on this as well.

OK, conspiracy theorists, get to that secret room, work over that 17-digit combination on your fire/bomb/apocalypse-proof filing cabinet and stick this one away for safekeeping:

Alabama coach Nick Saban used to work for Bill Belichick, the sneakiest spy in sports since Moe Berg.

Alex,
As a made man you always have protection. As for stealing signals...why would we want to do that when La Famiglia has some of the best wiretapping and bug planters in the world? No need to steal signals when you're on the inside.

 

[Big tide fan forever]

Well just bulletin material for the tide.

 

[Big tide fan forever]

It is rather insulting.

Agree I am DT_bur2:

Old Song With New Lyrics:

There's somethin hapnin here.

What it is ain't exactly clear.

There's a man with a camera over there.

Try'n to see our plays that's so very clear.

Its time they stopped, hey they're stoppin our run

Must be they got our plays now that ain't no fun.


Now we're the Gawja bulldogs.

And we can play better than them hogs.

Not gonna let Saban steal our plays.

Gonna close our doors to all the media.

Its time they stop, hey we might go down

but they won't get our plays Bama how does that sound.



Sounds like paranoia to me.

I agree that this is very insulting, but not only from the media. Since no reason was given the only reason anyone can connect is the Saint Nick stealing signals bs. It would be nice to at least have Georgia say it is not because of our new coach. If it is because of our coach, thats just illogical paranoia.

 

[lafella]

it makes perfect sense really it isolates the players from the media, the media from the teams game plan, and takes away any distractions from the team from outside sources other than the media. Obviously he wants some team focus.

That or he saw those guys in the bleachers wearing Alabama linen with the long lens cameras, audio devices, and the film crew.
