I've always thought of Saban as someone who couldn't be cowed, but sadly, I was mistaken.
Not only that but Saban was wearing a mask OUTSIDE! Ugh! There's no bigger Bama fan than me. It's in my bones and blood. Alas, I will not be rooting for my beloved Tide. This is a bridge too far.
I'm not a sports fan but this sounds like a good time for disappointed fans to all send Saban some pink pussy hats. Load him up.
