    I agree with Yaya, he isn't your coach so you don't call him "Coach"

    But ... greeting him with "Hi, Saban!" is pretty douchy, too.

    Who the fuck declared Rick Karle (whoever that is) as the arbiter of how to address coaches in a press conference?

    In junior high, one teacher called us by our last names. It was because we had 4 guys named Chris, two named Russell and a couple of Amandas, etc. in the same class
    The guys didn't care because we had all played sports, been on teams, been called by our last names. The girls had trouble with it. They had never been referred to by their last names.

    His Twitter bio says he once went fishing with Nick Saban. Not Coach Saban, but Nick Saban.

    I'm sure there are no homer issues at all with this jagoff.

    Hundreds of journalists are losing their jobs every week and this Rick Karle jerkoff wants to shame people online for trying to do their job. Fuck him. I hope he loses his job at has to sell insurance for a living the rest of his life.

    I'd say this could go on the cringey moments thread but this guy seems to be all about them.
