Best derailment thread so far, BBF that was a beautiful stretch, fit for the 7th ending of a baseball game called because of rain before the 6th endings.

You should care. It's positive UAB recognition from a visible personality.

Why be negative about it?

Since I started following Bilas on twitter, I've become something of a fan. He's a funny guy with a dry wit. He has his opinions and some I don't agree with, but he's still entertaining on twitter.

I'm just not a fan. I don't value his opinion, and I'm sure it all stems from his negative comments after selection Sundays (the Big Dance).

Annnnnd somehow he manages to discuss birmingham's past racism in a thread talking about our new coach, and this one was unprovoked.

I wasn't living in Alabama for most of these events. I hate racism. I believe we are all brothers and sisters.

I'm against the Immigration Law.

Having said all that, I still don't care what Jay Bilas has to say. I don't value his opinion.

So, that's how alliances are made... The "snarky-norse descendant-researcher above the mason-dixon line" and the "self proclaimed ultimate insider-I'm like the Perez Hilton of all things Blazer-master of spinn-batman at halloween-I played baseballer" join forces to battle the "racism remembering-bruising tailback wantin-bahr was my dream daddy-every thread or conversation leads back to bammer" member's commandeering of the fold's threads? That's like cats and dogs sleeping together...
