It's Tuesday afternoon...

which really is a perfect time for another random Bama-related post (if your Tuesdays are anything like mine...slow and easy and full of chores and other "have-to- get-it-done"s).

So, I really couldn't pass this little gem up:

Texas Tech's Mike Leach is more of a Renaissance Man than we realized! We knew he loves to talk about history, and loves anything related to piracy ("aargh!"), but did you realize that he also has no qualms in handing out dating advice? On his recent call-in show, Leach answered some dating questions from a caller and did it with dead-pan seriousness (one of his suggestions was to take a girl to a coffee shop, because you can spend time talking about the "odd characters who come and go").

At Espn.com, one of my favorite sportswriters (Pat Forde) took this little gem and opined on what sort of dating advice coaches would hand out to their players.

His take on Nick Saban is priceless...
"Tell her you're too busy breaking down Tennessee's third-and-long offensive tendencies to go on some stupid date. Where is your commitment, son? Who gave you permission to have a life? Drop and give me 20."

Gave me a good little chuckle this afternoon. Perhaps it's not what an 18-year-old would seriously want to hear in regards to the ladies, but when it comes to getting ready to play #3 Georgia...it's nice to think that your football players are committed, and focused, and ready to roll!!!!!!
