Nick Saban retires

Jimmy Sexton is undefeated.

 

Same with me when Adam Vinatieri retired as he was the last active player in MLB, NFL, NBA and NHL to be older than me, albeit by less than a month.

Although I think Jaromir Jagr is still active with a team in Europe. Come back, Jaromir!

 

No we aren’t. You might be.

 

I remember distinctly when Randy Johnson pitched a perfect game at the age of 40 calling a buddy to alert him to the last great sport achievement by someone older than us.

 

Well, I still have Bernhard Langer.

 

Used to be a NASCAR driver in his 40s was just getting broken in good.

 

And we're talking about Lane Kiffin.

 

The flip side of that is a 30-year-old tennis player used to be either well past done or, more likely, retired.

 

That's cuz you're soft we must win all the time or it is failure AMERICA FUCK YEAH

 

There was a time, in the early 1990s, I believe, where no man over 28 won a tennis tournament for more than a year.

 

I haven't looked it up to confirm ('cause I'm too damn lazy), but this stat came up in a Yahoo sports blog:

Since 2000, there have been 24 Super Bowls and 24 college football title games (48 combined). Belichick, Carroll and Saban have coached in 22 of those games (46%) and have won 15 of them (31%).
