Stop being such whiney people. So what if he made the analogy. As pointed out, in Alabama, it's probably very close to accurate. This reminds me of when everyone was in an uproar over Kellen Winslow's comments about being a soldier and going to war. Football is a violent game. It is a battle out there. A player can lose his ability to walk or his life on any given play. It's not for whimps. It's not played with skirts on. It's war out there. Anyone with half a brain should be able to understand where Saban or any other coach or athlete is coming from when they say these things. I remember some years back when a player from the Miami Hurricanes, I believe it was Jerome Brown, showed up in fatigues. He made a comment like "you wanna go to war, I'll take you to war." I guess since we weren't at war at the time, nobody was upset by it. But it was no different. Take off the skirts and quit crying.
