Alright, listen up, y’all. I heard some folks talkin’ about this fella, Nick Saban, and somethin’ about bein’ a VP. Now, I ain’t no fancy politician or nothin’, but I can tell ya what I think about it, hear?
First off, they sayin’ this Nick Saban guy, he used to be a football coach. A coach, y’all! Like, yellin’ at young’uns and tellin’ ’em to run faster and throw that there ball better. Now, I ain’t sayin’ that’s bad, mind you. My grandson, he plays football, and he’s a good boy, even if he does get muddy all the time. But coachin’ football and bein’ a VP, well, that’s like apples and oranges, ain’t it?
So, what’s this VP thing all about anyway? Seems to me, it’s like bein’ second in command. Like the helper to the big boss. You gotta be smart, gotta know how to talk to all sorts of people, and gotta make decisions that affect the whole country. That’s a heap of responsibility, y’all. More than just tellin’ boys to run faster, I reckon.
Now, they sayin’ there’s odds on this fella Saban becomin’ VP. Odds? Like gamblin’? Well, I never did understand gamblin’. Seems like a fool’s game to me. Throwin’ away hard-earned money on somethin’ you ain’t got no control over. But these folks, they sayin’ the odds are long. Real long. Like, a hunnert to one or somethin’. That means it ain’t likely to happen, y’all.
- He’s a football coach, not a politician.
- The odds are really, really long.
- Maybe he just wants to relax after all that coaching.
And you know what? I think maybe that’s a good thing. This Nick Saban fella, he’s been coachin’ football for a long time. That’s gotta be tirin’, all that yellin’ and travelin’ and strategizin’. Maybe he just wants to sit on his porch and drink some sweet tea, watch the grandkids play. Maybe he wants to go fishin’ or somethin’. He’s earned it, I say. He’s earned a good long rest.
Besides, bein’ a VP sounds like a whole lot of trouble. You gotta deal with all them politicians, always arguin’ and bickerin’. You gotta travel all over the place, shakin’ hands and makin’ speeches. And you gotta worry about all sorts of things, from the economy to them wars overseas. That ain’t no life for an old fella who just wants to take it easy.
So, if you ask me, and nobody did, but I’m gonna tell ya anyway, this Nick Saban fella ain’t gonna be no VP. He’s gonna stay home, maybe watch some football on TV, maybe eat some good cookin’, and maybe just enjoy his life. And that’s just fine, y’all. That’s just fine.
They got all these fancy folks talkin’ about odds and bets and who’s gonna do what, but sometimes, common sense is all you need. And common sense tells me that a football coach is gonna stay a football coach, or maybe just a regular fella enjoyin’ his retirement. That’s the way I see it, anyway.
Anyways, that’s what I think about it. It is what it is, as the youngsters say, so there you have it. Nick Saban ain’t gonna be no VP. He’s gonna be sittin’ on his porch, sippin’ sweet tea. And good for him, I say. Good for him.
This whole thing, it’s just a bunch of hooey if you ask me. Politicians and their games, always somethin’ new with them. Makes a person tired just thinkin’ about it.
But then again, what do I know? I’m just an old woman who likes her peace and quiet. And that’s something Nick Saban probably wants too, after all them years of football. So let him have it. Let him be.
