The other day in a press conference Nick Saban was addressing something he refers to as “Rat Poison” once again. He was lamenting that writers are only heaping praise on this team and giving his team the impression that all they had to do was “…Put on that Alabama uniform and just automatically go out there and win the game”. He wanted to know why we as writers didn’t cover some of the things that aren’t so wonderful. He said that way he’d have something to take in and read to the team and point out that there are things we are seeing that need to be fixed.
