Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 In today's Huntsville Times, bama beat writer Paul Gattis says: --DJ Hall accepts responsibility for his suspension for the La.-Monroe game. Says it was his fault. --the orifnal suspension was the whole game but quotes Saban as saying after he and Hall talked, he had compassion and let Hall play the second half since it was his last home game as a senior. So the truthh comes out after all the spin. It's amazing how compassion will set in when you are getting beat by La.-Monroe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think of that term when I think of $aban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is article is exactly the problem. These guys don't feel like they did anything wrong. They have a sense of entitlement and don't care if they broke the rules.Caldwell hasn't had a history of getting into trouble, and graduated in 3 years. So he's surprising. Coffee and Rogers are not surprising. from the textbook thread, I truly do feel vindicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaGrad03 0 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hey just because they play in crimson doesn't mean they get a free pass.

ssgaufan 0 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 It was brought out this morning by Doug Cecrest (sp?) that Hall had gotten this suspension earlier in the year. Meaning that Satan PICKED the ULM game for him to serve his suspension. Yet all of those stupid bammers were calling in talking about how tough Satan is, and how this program is headed in the right direction because of his discipline. Bunch of dimwits!

Something I picked out of the Mobile Press-Register is that whatever infraction the suspension was for happened earlier in the season, but punishment was delayed until the ULM game. But we doing things the right way, aight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quietfan 233 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I don't remember THREE separate suspensions: http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/birmingh....xml&coll=2 To be fair, Hall brought some of the criticism on himself. He served suspensions for undisclosed violations of team rules at least three times, the most recent of which was a half-game term against Louisiana-Monroe. "Hopefully what we did will have some positive effect," Saban said. Hey, Nick: If suspensions #1 and #2 didn't have any positive effect, why would "suspending" suspension #3 halfway through the game make any difference?What's the team record in West Vance for suspensions by a player? If DJ can break another rule to get himself a fourth suspension for the bowl game, will he set another uat record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sogaaufan 27 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I have heard it all now. Saban had "compassion" for DJ. Are we to believe that he just felt bad for the kid and his family? He just happened to have these pangs of "compassion" at halftime of a game where they were getting their butts kicked by a 1-AA team. Nick would have been better off just to keep his mouth shut and let this deal die. There was no good explanation for this to start with. For him to come out with something this lame makes him look like that much more of a sleazeball. Question to Bama fans; what step in the process is it when you totally show the world that you have no spine and are quite willing to compromise your principles to get a win?

Shire5k 19 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I'm not gonna sound like a Bama fan here....but I find it funny that CNS went back on the full game suspension of DJ, just to have him come in and not do jack s***. Poetic justice for going back on a punishment. Hopefully he's learned his lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
