I was confused.
B/c after making the David vs. Goliath play … he mentioned a number of sporting events and NONE of them were David vs. Goliath matchups. Bjorg/McEnroe … Ali/Frazier … I think Musberger may have been hitting the sauce already.
Either that or they ran out of cliches with the first matchup between these two and so they’re reaching.

I'll just say this in regards to the first game
If Alabama doesn’t miss either of the first 2 field goals they are the ones that are undefeated going into this game. I think these are the best 2 teams in the country and I think Alabama is just a bit better.
Now LSU will win 24-3
Alabama just quintupled LSU's total punt return yardage from the season right there

under 2500 hits
under .300 career avg
under 200 career homers
only 3 gold gloves
a whopping 87th on the career board for stolen bases
never led the league in a single offensive category, ever
Hall of Fame?
doesn't seem right to me, either
not that he wasn’t really good, just not HoF IMO
by MIZZOUfaninAZ on Jan 9, 2012 8:07 PM CST up reply actions
oh yeah, he was definitely a good player no question
any team would have been extremely lucky to have him as their SS for his career.
But he is now mentioned alongside Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams, Jackie Robinson, George Brett, Robin Yount, and someday Ken Griffey Jr, etc? No way.
Well no, but all of those guys are first ballot.
A contemporary of Ozzie Smith isn’t going to win a lot of Gold Gloves.
If you consider WAR a useful stat, he’s 61st all time, just ahead of Tony Gwynn.
by Sheriff Blalock on Jan 9, 2012 8:16 PM CST up reply actions
Larkin's and Smith's careers don't overlap that much
Ozzie’s last GG was 1992, Larkin’s rookie season was 1986. Larkin won in ’94, ’95 and ’96. He played until 2004. What happened?
That's five or six he could have won potentially
Isn’t it? What would eight Gold Gloves sound like?
He won his last Gold Glove at the age of 32, which seems very normal for a shortstop.
Not that I believe in Gold Gloves much, Derek Jeter has three himself.
by Sheriff Blalock on Jan 9, 2012 8:22 PM CST up reply actions
he was the best offensive shortstop in the nl for a number of years.
not sure that’s enough, though.
What do you have against the ring-tailed lemur?
if his measure is offense, it's not even close
if his measure is defense, then he should have a ton more than 3 gold gloves.
Just being a better hitter than others at a position not known to have good hitters is a bad way to measure it. I hope that’s not what it is.
Still waiting on Frank White’s call.
ozzie smith got in his way in the gold glove dept. for years, don't forget.

When it happened to my teammate
they just popped it back in, just like a finger or shoulder. But it’s 1000x more painful
Mine dislocated on one step
and returned when I fell on it. Only problem was, I broke a small piece of my hip socket in the process. Has dislocated about a half dozen times since then, but I have always been able to get it back in
Advocating for the "Spreadbone" since 2010
Rock M Nation
Ouch...
Did I get the pain scale right? Cause I heard both pops, in and out, and I didn’t want either to happen to me.
The pain was pretty astounding, though brief
I hit an uneven piece of ground while running a sprint indoors and it jammed up and popped…because I was running, I had no chance to stop running until my leg came back around and went out from under me. While falling in a heap, it apparently went back in. The entire thing may have only lasted a second or two. The subsequent dislocations lasted longer, but were not as painful as I got further and further from the original injury. I dont think I have done it in maybe 5-7 years, finally learned how to avoid it (sitting with my knees above my hips and then getting up a certain way had been the culprit)
Advocating for the "Spreadbone" since 2010
Rock M Nation
Ouch
Teammate had to wait like 15 min for the paramedics to diagnose it and pop it back in, so his wasn’t as quick, but anything like that is horrible. Hopefully you don’t have a limp?
No...not typically.
My opposite knee is worse, so if I do, it is the other way. Honestly, when it pops out, I’ve been able to get it back in and it just ends up being sore for the “trauma” for a day or two, but like I said, I am a bit away from the experience. I will say of the 5-6 times I did it after the initial injury, I was probably drinking for 2-3 of them, so that made it hurt less :-)

the elephants are all in the Superdome
serious question, though, why is Alabama’s mascot an elephant?
from the interwebs
Reason the mascot is an elephant:
In the 1930 Alabama-Ole Miss game, Coach Wallace Wade started his second string in the first quarter. They were still bigger than the Mississippi first string but Ole Miss was hanging tough. Sports writer Everett Strupper, of the Atlanta Journal, wrote “At the end of the (first) quarter, the earth started to tremble, there was a distant rumble that continued to grow. Some excited fan in the stands bellowed, ‘Hold your horses, the elephants are coming,’ and out stamped this Alabama varsity.” Several other writers referred to the Alabama linemen Red Elephants and the name stuck. That is how Alabama came to be associated with elephants. Now, the Crimson Tide mascot is an elephant fittingly named Big Al.

The thing about all the people that are arguing OSU in this game
Don’t you need LSU to be winning to make it a valid argument?
No.
It doesn’t matter. Alabama had a chance to beat LSU in the regular season. At home. One of the biggest “arguments” for the BCS is that it “makes the whole season a playoff!”, except …. when it doesn’t.
If you take that “regular season is like a playoff” argument that BCS backers use, that is one of the BEST arguments that there shouldn’t be a rematch in the national title game.
Plus OSU would have scored and allowed friggin touchdowns. This is ridiculous
"I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are in alphabetical order. Like they should be."

The Alabama-LSU game would have mattered...
…had everybody else not also lost. Alabama was very much the most deserving (statistically) of the one-loss teams, therefore they got the first second chance of the BCS era. It took a lot for it to happen, but it happened.

Players get injured in practices almost as often as games, regular season might be shortened (unless it’s an 8 game playoff), and in an 8 team playoff only four teams would play more than one postseason game.

"I'm not a believer in predetermined fates, being rewarded for one's efforts. I'm not a believer in karma. The reason why I try to be a good person is because I think it's the right thing to do. If I commit fewer bad acts there will be fewer bad acts, maybe other people will join in committing fewer bad acts, and in time there will be fewer and fewer of them" ~ Daniel Handler (aka Lemony Snicket)
