University of Alabama head football coach Nick Saban is undoubtedly one of the most powerful people in the state. When he speaks, pretty much every member of the media listens, but an excerpt from a newly-published unauthorized biography of the coach has people scratching their heads.
Wall Street Journal sports reporter Ben Cohen tweeted out the following picture from a page in the biography. Yellowhammer has edited it slightly, to keep things PG.
Yellowhammer Radio’s Cliff Sims discussed the excerpt on Monday’s show, joking that the revelation might actually help Hillary’s chances in a state so deep red it’s practically Crimson.
“Let’s think about the radical feminists out there,” he said. “One of the things they try to gloss over is all of the stuff that happened in the first Clinton White House where Bill Clinton was being Bill Clinton and Hillary was being anything but this feminist icon. He’s sleeping around on her, she’s apologizing for it on national TV day in and day out… They don’t want to bring that up anymore, because you’ve got a whole new generation of Democrats, these young folks out there, that never saw that… They want the Hillary Clinton people think about to be this stateswoman, the U.S. Senator, the U.S. Secretary of State, the most admired woman in America. That’s the Hillary Clinton they want to show people.”
“Now if Hillary goes and makes a big power move on Bill and goes and sleeps with Nick Saban, the radical feminist left suddenly applauds this. The 50 Shades of Grey crowd applauds this… (It) might actually help Hillary in the polls with Alabama football fans who say, ‘Well if it’s good enough for Nick it’s good enough for me,'” Sims joked. “Suddenly, Hillary wins the state of Alabama. She’d be the first Democrat to win Alabama in decades.”
