If memory serves, your comments weren't related to USA football, moreso saying that Association Football is a game for girly girls. I say as memory serves as your posts were understandedly deleted, so it's a bit hard to check.

My point is that a bit of civility goes both ways, trolling other threads is pointless and all it will achieve is getting you in bother with the Mods. MacRumors is a big forum, there's plenty of room for threads covering sports of all types, and indeed football of every code, without descending into silliness. It's totally needless and frankly a bit tiresome.

Anyway, I don't have a clue about college football or the teams or owt, so I'll simply wish you all an enjoyable season whichever team you support. :)

I echo what he said.

Everyone cheats to some extent, knowingly or not. There are definately obvious rules out there that people steer clear of, such as having assistants offer coaching advice and then not so obvious infractions such as the whole textbook issue. Alabama punished the guys when they found out, suspended them for 4 games or so and they even told on themselves to the NCAA. Who does that? Alabama is not going to get the death penalty over some textbook scandal. Neither will USC for giving Reggie Bush thousands of dollars. It's a crooked business that isn't run right. It is focused on dollar signs.

The truth of the matter is that the SEC is the cash cow of college football. It has been that way for awhile and will more than likely continue to be that way for awhile to come. People that aren't from the south just don't understand what college football means to southern people.

Yeah, if Bama didn't get the death penalty for bribing coaches and paying for players, no major school will ever get it again. I agree that the textbook thing was relatively minor, but my gripe again goes to the NCAA. As I said before, if one of the lower tier teams in the conference had been in the same circumstances, the penalties would have been MUCH harsher.

I wholeheartedly agree with your statement about football in the south. The old joke about college football being a religion around here is only barely a joke. Most southern states didn't get professional teams until the 60s or 70s, so college football had a long time to build up a massive fan base.

Anyway, round the bowl, and down the hole, roll Tide, roll! :D
