by DesperadoJV on Feb 11, 2012 5:58 PM CST reply actions funny point my dad called, and said he remembered a game in the 70s in which Alabama finished the game with four on the floor, and won. Apparently there were several injuries, and suspension or two, and 3 or 4 guys fouled out. Now for the kicker, the opponent that night ? LSU.

If you spent thirty minutes volunteering with or even talking to people with special needs you?d be pretty disgusted at your comment, too. I?m sure you?re not really a hateful person and meant that in a joking way, but you need to be made aware how statements like that come off.

I think Lee is uniquely positioned to show the lack of quality in the acting of the prequels. Look at his roles in the LOTR trilogy and compare them to his roles in the prequels ? amazingly similar characters (right-hand men of the main antagonist). Granted, as wordsmiths go, it?s a bit unfair to stack Lucas up against Tolkein. But, we?re talking about how the source material translates to the movies. The difference in the quality of those performances is night and day to me.

Of course, that?s just my take on it. One thing that did puzzle me a bit in the prequels is how the Jedi couldn?t see that for Anakin to bring balance to the force it would require there being equal numbers of Sith and Jedi. For balance there would either have to be just 2 Jedi left or the number of Sith would have to increase to match the Jedi.

by the thin red line on Feb 11, 2012 7:08 PM CST up reply actions i'm wondering how the guys on the court feel?are they pissed at their teammates or at CAG?

by LittleSis on Feb 11, 2012 7:04 PM CST up reply actions Can't drink fast enough before the 2nd half starts. New meaning to ?this game subject to blackout?

by AlabamaJammer on Feb 11, 2012 7:01 PM CST up reply actions Agreed. Looked like they put some Carolina blue trim on them? It would be more offensive if we hadn?t curb-stomped their nut sack earlier this week.

by kleph on Feb 11, 2012 7:19 PM CST up reply actions so what are the chances that the infraction is only worthy of a single game suspension so CAG chose this one in order to have them all back for Florida?

by d12 on Feb 11, 2012 7:59 PM CST up reply actions yep they had 31, in the back of my mind I was wondering if LSU even needed to score in the second half to win. But they boys played hard.

by hate2lose on Feb 11, 2012 7:57 PM CST via mobile reply actions No question that Grant will tell the boys that he is proud, and that they should keep their heads held high after facing the adversity that the starters of the team felt necessary to put them in.

by the thin red line on Feb 11, 2012 8:20 PM CST up reply actions Not at all embarrased to watch this team tonight. Really all things considered a very good effort. Winning on the road is always tough. Even with our starters I figured we were no better than 50-50 to win.

By the way, Rodney Cooper looked tonight like who I thought he would be when he signed. Too bad it took this for us to find out what we have in him. Lacey must be injured. He finally did hit a 3 but even tonight he was not much.

by 5026 on Feb 11, 2012 8:24 PM CST reply actions Was at the game Frustrating first half with nothing falling. Much better 2nd half?just couldn?t stop Justin Hamilton when it counted. Good showing by a much short-handed team?.just frustrating as well?.

by d12 on Feb 11, 2012 8:55 PM CST up reply actions Interested to see Grant's press conference. Hoping he praises the efforts of the guys that got to play tonight; they were overmatched and they couldn?t do much more than they did. Most of us didn?t even expect that much out of them. Hoping also that he completely bashes the guys who left their teammates out to dry by screwing around and having to get sent home.
