Yes, the government does the helping, not me, it is there job. (That is why I pay taxes. Or...that is why I don't pay taxes.)

But it has help from, "it is all about me." It also has some relation to everybody wins. I didn't do the drill correctly, yet I still get praise..."hmm, I do no wrong innately!" "Joey you should always be polite and help other people!" Huh..."%^&!$)* that!" "I do no wrong innately!" "Hey, I do NO Wrong...Innately!" "That means I am God!" "See...it is all about me!"

I noticed it when it happened and said "What a jerk" to myself. It's a bowl game - not a conference championship or anything else and certainly not the end of the world. It also wasn't a game where the winning coach did something to tick-of the loser, other than beat the crap out of his team. It wan't like anyone tried to run up the score.

For the sake of his own PR, he should have spent 10 or 15 secs on congratulating the winner instead of a fly-by handshake. Beamer even seems to glance back at him with an expression that appears to say "What the hell was that?" Kiffin's pesonna is akin to little league dads/coaches who have no idea how to act.

Actually, the most idiotic part of this game was Kiffin getting his QB badly injured in the final minute (severe concussion, left stadium on stretcher and in a neck brace and spent 3 days in the hospital in Atlanta) because he wanted a meaningless touchdown. You can try that with 5 or 6 minutes left when you can still fool yourself into thinking you have a chance. After that, put your subs in and let them run the clock out.

As much as I hate Al Davis, I'm beginning to believe he was right about Lane.

Yeah, what is that? What kind of person accidentally shoves over his own player and doesn't bother to help him up? If any of us are Kiffin, we help the dude up and laugh about it later. That's just not even normal :lol:

And, if you look, it isn't accidental...he gives the guy a very purposeful shove...

Moreover, he is laughing, I think he was playing. May not be real smart, but I try to judge by people's intent. I don't think he had any mal-intent.

That's Crompton that he laid out. No wonder he didn't care if Va. Tech massacred him some more at the end of the game. :lol:

Ditto. My dad feels the same way about him from what I gather.

I wonder how long before Tenn admits they made a mistake??
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.
