The Saban Paradigm:
Posted by Ty from T-Town (Sunday January 24 2010 @ 09:07PM CST)

T-Town, has now officially recovered from jet lag.

They say it takes a while for something important and rare as a national championship to set-in. I understand the basic concept of such a thought, but around here; Those rules don't apply. The Sears Trophy, or what ever their calling it now, has already made the West Alabama
Wal-Mart tour and god only knows where it is now.
The young bama fans that were not around to experience the championship back in 1992, are now only experiencing something that they were already promised.

I was born in 1961 at Druid City Hospital, so I can now technically count eight national championships. I know that my math is somewhat vicariously skewed, but I was actually there in 1979. It was by far the loudest sporting event that I had ever heard in my young life; up until the point that George Teague ran down Lamar Thomas in the same building on the first day of 1993. You get the point. We are not only used to winning. We expect to win.

Paradigm is nothing but a model of pattern.
It seems clear to me that the champions of the past somewhat modeled themselves after the men that led them. The talking-heads of the media seem to gravitate to a more simplistic term.
(Buying into the system.)

Coach Sabin, is no different than any of those men cast in bronze outside the north end-zone at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

None of them were strangers to hard work.
They were all winners. They instilled a work ethic that their players emulate to this day.
Those are the things that a small town in Alabama, are the most proud of.

It's back to work as usual in T-Town.
