01:29 PM ET 10.19 | Former Tennessee quarterback Erik Ainge, never known for holding his tongue, on what to do about Alabama quarterback A.J. McCarron's knee injury on Saturday:
"I say it all the time. Nasty, attitude, get after it. Do something crazy," Ainge said. "The first time AJ McCarron drops back, tell one of your boys you've got fifteen on this one. He's got a sore knee, go step on it."

Ainge, you are cattle leavings. No true Volunteer would do as you suggest.

As a UTK alum and enlightened sports fan, I say, Play clean. Play hard. Or, play somewhere else.

Someone should go take Ainge'e knee out when he is out with wife or GF. And say, "That 15 is on me."

Absolutely classless statement, but likely taken out of context as well. In any case, he should've stopped after "get after it".

I'm thinking more along the lines of a modified version of "12th man" on defense. Gonna hide in the DKR press box with a sniper rifle. Nothing short of that would seem to offer much hope.

Actually, if any member of Bama's team is "done in," it is most likely to be from an ailment acquired within the borders of their state. Viral or bacterial, the little buggers bring down high and low alike.

So, the Bama team is struck with a wicked "flu" today. The persistent symptoms include fever, and urgent, violent expulsion from both ends. It's virulent and spreads to 1/3 of the traveling contingent, manifesting full symptoms during the wee hours of Saturday morning. Attempts to treat the symptoms are unproductive, and the afflicted cannot be more than ten steps from a toilet.
Despite the absence of 1/2 of their starters and coaches, the Crimson Tide takes the field and those that play give the Vols all that they can stand. Fate steps in late in the game. The Vols catch a break and claim victory. At the end of the game, the look on Saban's face is so severe, it makes Muschamp's stare seem like the visage of a happy baby.

Post script: Despite the fact that the coaches and team members acquired their ailment while within the borders of their home state, Bama fans blame Tennessee, their Knoxville lodgings, and especially the visitors locker room at Neyland Stadium. Even Nick Saban's declaration of the facts doesn't dissuade the mass hysteria among Bama fans. Their hatred of Tennessee and their false accusations take on a life of their own. It becomes the focal point of Bammers' false righteousness and indignation. Fulmer is all but forgotten.

I've always felt that a defensive player should hit the other player so hard that offensive player thinks twice about running the ball in that tough defensive player's area. A defensive player should hit somebody hard enough to make it hurt, to make the other person feel pain. However, to injure someone, to intentionally blow out someone's knee, to stomp on a player when he's down, to hit head to head to try to cause a concussion; well, to me, those things are classless. Ainge should put a sock in it.

Ainge has rapidly cycling bipolar disorder. Perhaps, he was off his meds and in a manic moment when he befouled his own character.
