Exactly what Suttles was saying, just phrased differently.The annoying Liberal media - they are paid.
Do you get sympathy at work when you get you azz chewed out?
My point is that this is being overblown - it happens at every other presser at Alabama during the season ….

They wanted a "Saban rant." They got that. But, that means since she got Saban to rant she's done a good job? Okay.She got EXACTLY what she wanted, Terry.... Which means she did her job extremely well.
Here's something else nobody is even considering, something that Herbie and Fowler even alluded to.. "He's fired up, coaching harder when they're up 30 late in the game". Everybody (including the media) knows Saban is a perfectionist, and hates seeing even his backups make mistakes in mopup duty. They know it so much its become sort of a joke to them late in games. Remember him busting AJ's ass on the sideline for throwing into triple coverage in blowout mopup duty in 2010?
She didn't expect him to "disrespect" Jalen (nor did any rational college football fan who knows Nick Saban), and I still don't know where Saban got that from, she wanted Saban to respond with passion and out of character because he's tired of trying to mislead the media. It's tough work. But again, has Saban not asked for this line of questioning? This is 2018, getting a response like that is now a badge of honor... Especially when that particular question is:
You are changing the narrative here to something that isn't true.1. Not out of line - Related to evaluating the game
So, you wanted to hear Saban evaluate the quarterbacks, critique them with Maria, and he said it wasn't something he was going to do.2. The question everyone wants her to ask (myself and probably 99% of everyone else watching the broadcast included)
Knowing how sideline reporters work, dollars to donuts it was a question fed to her from her producer.Maybe this new sideline reporter didn't realize that, or she DID but didn't GAF.

PS - Has anyone even checked with Maris to see if it even bothered her? It sure didn't seem like it in the moment. I thought she handled it perfectly. Why is the entire ESPN media brigade assuming that Maria is so thin-skinned and easily offended??? She sure doesn't seem like it to me - don't think she needs anyone to come to her defense
He did. You just didn't like how he did.Handling the media is a huge portion of being a Head Coach.
There is a pervasive attitude that they do have the right to know. I made mention of it within the last week when one of the guys on College Football Live said so--literally. They are an authority based on his comment.The press does not have a right to know all the inner workings of a school, team, governmental entity, police department or company.
