Review of “Bama Profiles in Courage: Laykin”: (Capers) Barr flexes through an emotional range that most writers would never dare attempt … Humor and Bama sorrow are fused together like twined tree trunks that keep each other standing…..It’s part satire, part character study, with a wry lens on fame, fandom, and the modern South. Well done, Capers, well done.”– Ian Allen, The Times Literary Supplement.

He isn’t talking about Texas running football. He is talking about business

On a day of abject villainy, Nick Saban says that ‘Texas ain’t gonna run the SEC’ boy.  It would be nice at this point to confirm this commentary as a satire that way we could applaud how it deftly—even affectionately—pricks the pompous self-regard of the Texas fanbase and Horn’s inner circle.  Saban and his boy Greg McElroy are nothing more than a soulless works of sycophancy. So much so that Kirk Herbstreit, a true malfunctioning hologram, sputtering his bullshit lines, wants to take them out behind the gym for a thrashing.

In what is a standard-issue tirade against the SEC’s mannerless interloper of Texas, Saban goes on a full-throated treacly rant about who is the real boss of the Conference. Bama fans can be dramatic, even hysterical, violent, prone to sweeping pronouncements about the entirety of the SEC since the dawn of time …Remember, the SEC HQ is in Birmingham Alabama for a reason.  What will they do when they see that Saban picked  Georgia vs. Texas in the SEC Championship Game?  He did manage to keep Alabama as “OUR”.
