Thank you Sports Illustrated!
So, I finally saw something last Friday that I felt was worth writing about…Nick Saban’s cover of Sports Illustrated!!! I mean, he has been at the top of my list for quite awhile - I’m just glad that others are also recognizing him as cover worthy.
My one question, however, is this - Why use a photo with even a hint of a smile?
I like my Nick Saban with attitude. I like him when he’s serious - focused - intent.
I like my Nick Saban screaming at players and gettin’ all over the fans and reporters. I like him yellin’ at folks.
So, come on, Sports Illustrated. If you’re going to give my man a cover - make it a cover that shows him at his best…when he’s chewin’ somebody’s ass.
