Damn it, this always happens. I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score. It's not fair.

so why was Baker all pissed off after the game? they won

Against any other team they probably would've lost, Baker had multiple turnovers that could have lost them the game and in general looked like doodoo. I think he is probably aware that he needs to play better if he's going to keep a starting job in the league long-term

The breakers? Breakers of what and whom?

A breaker is another word for a wave so maybe that's it? A little dark in that it could also be looked at as referencing the storm surge breakers from a hurricane...

On the other hand perhaps it's short for shipbreakers? I imagine New Orleans must do some stuff like that... maybe

Baker’s also probably frustrated he was getting booed and feels like he’s at least trying to give his all despite his injuries, which he is. He’s sensitive to critics and does give a poo poo. But he probably also feels pressure cause he knows his performance needs consistency and he’s probably got a contract to get next year. So a bunch of stuff boiling over and probably didn’t want to say something dumb and vent on camera

to me, it feels like birmingham always gets a pro team

e:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_in_Birmingham,_Alabama

quote:

The city has had several professional football franchises. The only pro football team currently in Birmingham is the Alabama Outlawz of X-League Indoor Football. Other teams included the two-time champion WFL franchise, the Birmingham Americans/Birmingham Vulcans—before the league folded. A USFL franchise, the Birmingham Stallions–once again the league folded. A WLAF franchise, the Birmingham Fire–the WLAF was renamed NFL Europa and the franchise became the Rhein Fire before the league folded altogether in 2007. A CFL franchise, the Birmingham Barracudas— would play one season and then fold as the league ended its American franchise experiment. An XFL franchise, the Birmingham Thunderbolts–another instance where the league folded. In 2019, the Birmingham Iron of the Alliance of American Football played part of one season before that league also folded.

The 26-year-old also rejected any notion that he avoided responsibility for his poor outing by not talking to the media after the game.

"I'd be the first to tell you I played like poo poo," he said. "So, it's not about accountable and I don't owe you guys any of that. I owe that to my teammates and I talked to them, so that's what matters."

IIRC Condoleeza Rice was rumored to be head of the NCAA after her time in the Dubya White House.

She does know her sports so she'll be able to actually contribute to the conversation.

Rice has been gone from the committee since 2016 by the way. But it was really dumb she was ever there even though I do believe she actually watches games.

Also the playoff committee still sucks, Cinci should be in, and it will also be funny when Notre Dame jumps them and the world explodes.
