Who said anything about a 3-9 year? Who gives a crap about supporting a coach? What does that have to do with class?

You are why people think if you live in the south, you are stupid.

That comment about living in the south just was not necessary.

Look, supporting a coach during a REAL tough loss is part of demonstrating class. Class isn't just applicable to success but also failure. This issue, IMHO, is the biggest liability that 'Bama has in regards to coaching. We (including me) tend to really take this stuff too seriously, & many folks get thrown under the bus way to quickly. CNS will be the first, he has BTW, to admit that it all falls on him. He doesn't blame players or other coaches (see Mack Brown). The biggest thing we need to keep in perspective is that CNS has earned the benefit of the doubt. He cannot be perfect ALL the time. He was last year & almost perfect in 2008. We like those kinds of seasons (especially when we beat the crap outta AU) but the way life goes it will not always be that way.

Now it isn't my intention to be critical of you. Believe me, I see your points. But CNS deserves our support. He has earned it. Heck, he has been prognosticating this type of team b/c of the lack of maturity from day one. That point makes it a bit agitating b/c he has known about this problem & hasn't been able to get it fixed. I believe what we have seen on the field is not a talent issue but a maturity issue. It just takes time I'm afraid. However, if next years record is the same or worse then I'll begin to be concerned. I don't like how this season panned out but I do give a crap about supporting our coach of which I'm gonna do with pride.

I suppose one has to just accept everything in this post to be accepted on this board. The points are all true and non-critical.

On this board if you criticize coaching decisions, you are called an armchair quarterback and told that you think you can coach better than the man who makes five million dollars a year. You are taunted for not making five million dollars a year coaching. You are told to be quiet because the coaches are better than the ones you had in the past and this one might leave if you point out his faults. If you say the players gave up, you are roundly criticized for pointing out said indiscretions. When you point out mistakes by officials you are accused of sour grapes. The only pass you get is to criticize the fans who watch the game, pay the salaries, buy the gear and go to the games. It is your own fault because your team did not win. You are told to support the team when everyone where you work yucks it up because your team lost, even though you had nothing to do with it really and according to this board it is no one's fault when Bama loses.

So, look to next year. It is no one's fault really that Bama lost. They won it all in 2009 and we should be oh-so-happy. The score today was just less than the other team and our players who are more talented than other teams' players did great. Everyone did great except the fans. Whatever you do, don't criticize anyone who had a direct outcome on the final result.

That is all.

Is that all? Does that mean no more? Good.

"There are plenty of Bama forums out there full of posters who are fighting suicide tonight because we *gasp* only won 9 games. You have not been moderated at any point, and while you are fully welcomed (and appreciated), no one makes you log into this Bama forum and share your thoughts. Personally, I enjoy having a Bama forum where people have realistic expectations and understand that sometimes, we aren't always the best team.

Our redzone woes cost us this game. Our offensive line getting whipped all year cost us a few games. It's not the end of the world. We have, what? 9 seniors on this team? We'll bounce back from this loss, we'll likely win our bowl game making 3 straight 10 win seasons and we'll be in the National Championship talk again next season.

Roll Tide!!"

Sanity rules ! RTR !
