    I'm still waiting on someone to explain how Saban isn't a sociopath, or at the very least a high functioning autistic.

    I want to see the Azerbaijani state TV version, parents screaming at their sons to be the best goat herder on the northern steppe.

    Nobody has explained because they probably don't care. You are a climate control expert, a civil rights advocate, and now a human behavior specialist.

    Saban is a great coach and is doing no harm to the world. I don't know shit about judging if someone is a sociopath, but after reading about it, Saban sure doesn't seem like one. Saban doesn't fit much of the criteria.

    Saban is or isn't, doesn't really matter. Saban is most certainly a world-class football coach, and that's his job and that's all we have evaluate him on. Those players who mutually choose to play for Saban are doing so to advance themselves and get a championship football experience. Anyone who can play at Alabama can probably play anywhere else, so they both have the theoretical and very real choice to go wherever they want.

    Saban has nothing to do with overwrought Texan peewee football.

    Don't let shitty reality TV and shittier PSAs fool you that kids don't want to compete. Kids are always competing. They love competition. I've coached kids, my own and others, in "safe" sports leagues where's there's no score kept, you know, to keep the kids safe. The kids always, ALWAYS, knew what the score was and always wanted to win.

    What's with the labels man.

    Didn't know there was something wrong with being a civil rights advocate.

    Saban's calculated callous is an interesting study for any football fan.

    I was the same way. Most kids want to win themselves. The added parental pressure is unnecessary.

    Some call it pressure, some call it support.

    There's a fine line.
