Watching the LA Fire Press Conference officials. Six of seven are women.

I doubt Bear paid any attention to the players on other teams, unless it was a death or similar tragedy.

You're entitled to your opinions, of course, paw paw.

Bear Bryant, the legendary football coach at the University of Alabama, was known for his meticulous preparation and strategic approach to the game. While specific details on his methods can vary, it is well-documented that Bryant was thorough in studying not just the plays but also the players of opposing teams. Here are a few points to consider:

  • Scouting: Bryant was famous for his extensive scouting network. He would send coaches and scouts to watch not only college games but also high school games to gather information on potential recruits and current opponents.
  • Film Study: He made use of game films extensively to analyze how individual players performed, their strengths, weaknesses, tendencies, and even personal habits on the field. This included looking at how players reacted in different situations, their speed, decision-making, and physical capabilities.
  • Player Profiles: Bryant's staff would create detailed profiles on key players from opposing teams, similar to what professional teams do today. This would include not just stats but also psychological profiles to some extent.
  • Adaptation: His approach was adaptive; understanding that each player could change how they played from game to game, Bryant would adjust his strategies based on the most current information available.

Given this background, it's safe to conclude that Bear Bryant did indeed study opposing teams' players as part of his broader strategy to prepare for games. His success, including 6 national championships at Alabama, is often attributed to this level of detail in preparation.

Yes, Coach Bryant was meticulous in his planning and recruiting. But what a player on another team did with his personal life probably wouldn't matter to Bear.

I am still waiting for you to answer why have women giving a press conference is an issue?

I doubt the late, great Bear Bryant would've considered the replacement of any starting SEC player by a lesbian a "personal life" matter, paw paw.

You allegedly knew him, of course, so there's that.

Are you sure you want to go down that road?

Roll, Tide!

Since Bear coached an all male sport, he would obviously not have allowed a lesbian to play. Duh.

Go down what road? I hope you have a map of this road, because you seem to have trouble staying on track.

So why is having 6 women on the press conference panel an issue for you?

Wasn't firefighting considered an all-male occupation at one time, pop pop?

Wasn't that widely accepted during the lifetime of the late, great Bear Bryant?

Are you getting closer to connecting any dots, yet, pop pop?

Roll, Tide!

Yes, there are women firefighters. In fact, I don't know if there were any women on the firefighting crews that are fighting the fires in CA.

I am fine sticking to the topic.

And yes, as I said, it WAS an all male occupation in the US in Bear Bryant's day. But that has not been the case for many years.
