Around SBN: On returning Clemson/South Carolina to National Importance

Pretty funny interview with Reggie post-game. The best part is about three-fourths in when Reggie stares Deion Sanders dead in the eye and, essentially, tells him he doesn't know what he's talking about.

I can't stand Deion.

Does anyone else remember the year we won the super bowl, the things that idiot said about our team entering the playoffs? After we beat the Chiefs anyway, Deion gives this speech on NFL Network.

“Bring the camera close. On my face only. Okay, look at me. The Colts are my mascara team. See, they look good on your date at night, but then you wake up the next morning and the makeup is gone, and you see what they really are. And it’s not attractive.”

What an idiot. I enjoyed watching him be more quiet than usual as the Colts beat his Ravens, then the Pats and finally the Bears. Primetime wasn’t very talkative or happy. Funny stuff.

Sounds like he’s back to his old ways again…

Thats the thing I hate most about sports

People like Sanders (but not just him, this applies to 90% of the douchebags on TV or on the intragoogle) they have NO accountability. Made a stupid comment? Act like it never happened! Backed the wrong horse? Just back the right horse ASAP and move on! Everyone in the sports world is 100% accurate. No one ever says a team is done when they aren’t. Its so freakin annoying. If any of us lay people had a 25% accuracy rating in our jobs, we’d be canned yesterday. Not sports analysts! If you aren’t wrong, you aren’t tryin!

No doubt.

And hearing Deion talk today, I’d like the chance to hold him accountable and answer for that berating of the Colts. But like you said, he’s far from the only one that says outlandish things and gets the pass.

I wouldn’t so much mind them predicting a game wrong. We all do that, and it’s a mere educated guess. The problem is these guys who are clearly putting a team down for whatever reason, and they make biased assertions that don’t come true. Then they never own up. Heck, they even change their story!

c'mon, he was kinda right at the time though

during the regular season the colts had one of the most atrocious run d’s that ever made the playoffs. of course sanders came back and it was like a whole new defense in the playoffs, but still… you guys never held a team under 100 yards rushing until the playoffs and gave up games of 186, 191(x2), 214, 219,227,375…not exactly the most ridiculous thing to suggest they weren’t headed for playoff success. deion has said way dumber stuff, and in principle, he was right. the only way the colts went anywhere is because the D suddenly became gangbusters against the run in january. in fact, that has to go down as one of the craziest “playoff adjustments” of all time.

Except he was dead wrong.

Look, certainly you have sportscasters that just don’t like your team. Actually, maybe not, because you haven’t been in as much spotlight the past many years (honestly not meant as a jab) as the Colts and Patriots, etc. But we have our lovers and our haters. Deion has been an obvious Colts hater. Many times, including Thursday’s game.

I really don’t care all that much, other than it was funny to see his mascara prediction run off his face over the following weeks.

i was just saying his reasoning, with the evidence he had at the time, was pretty sound

if the colts had played the run in the regular season like they did in the playoffs they might have joined the 72 dolphins, because in 3 of the 4 losses, they got run into the ground by the texans, jags, and titans

deion is just an empty personality, given. but of all the years to pick the colts to win it all, ironically enough, 2006 would have been one of the least likely years heading into the playoffs. that is until bob sanders came back, anyway.

this year, however, he should definitely know better.

I hear ya

It’s funny that the three teams that ran us into the ground that year were our divisional opponents. Those teams have built themselves to beat us, and they know our strengths and weaknesses inside out. There are exactly zero easy divisional games for us each year, as well as for you I am sure.

Sanders got burned for a TD by Harrison, retired

I don’t know what year it was, but Marvin had only been playing a few years and was considered, hands down, the best reciever in the league. Dallas had a pretty good team and was playing in the Dome on Sunday. Sanders was giving all kinds of interviews all week talkig about how he was going to shut Marvin down. Colts fans KNEW it was going to happen, Marvin made a little move on Deion, caught about a 30 yard pass from Peyton, made another move and left Deion in the dust (figuratively speaking) and flat-footed as he ran another 30-40 yards for the score. He was 20 yards down the field before Deion even started chasing him, but it was already over. Deion retired after that season. Anyone else remember that?

Reggie's on the radio

Of course Reggie has a radio show in Indy (1070 AM).
Maybe someday he’ll get Deion’s job. Personally I considerer Deion a loud-mouthed clown, and sometimes I switch channels when he’s on. I doubt I’m alone.
