no, an asterisk, I think, is important to Thio.

Note that there were unusual circumstances.

And so here are some unusual results that did not occur.

And in fact, athletes has been pointed out by many, including me, have gone through probably Mawr this season than they have, at least in recent memory.

Um, I think that's an Aston on point of view.

Personally, of course, there's an asterisk that gets attached to the season.

That doesn't mean that you denigrate the teams that ended up winning the championship.

But the asterisk is not about frowning on an eventual champion.

It's about highlighting and illuminating the difference in this season compared to any other we've had.

Major league baseball went from 162 games to 60 games.

Okay, you can't tell me that you don't There shouldn't be an asterisk attached to that.

That doesn't mean that you look at the Dodgers and frowned upon them and think that they're not worthy champions.

This season was vastly different from what seasons customarily exist.

You look at this national championship, of course.

But there does need to be something said about Alabama, who goes 13 and O and Ohio State, who plays six or seven games.

Big 10 delayed their play because initially they were aiming to cancel their season before they changed their mind and and got things together.

The SEC didn't do that, but games were stalled.

Games were postponed, games were canceled.

It didn't turn out that way for the Pittsburgh Steelers like they thought.

But hell, Kevin Snovinsky didn't even coach the game because you know what?

Because of covert issues with the Cleveland Browns, it doesn't mean that you frowned upon them.

You insult them, you denigrate them in any way.

But and asked, Eric doesn't have to mean that, and after it could simply be a tool toe.

Highlight the fact that there was some very unique circumstances that existed this season, unlike any other in American history or at least over the last century.

This highlights that there's nothing wrong with that.

I think in this situation it would have to highlight the fact that this was a tougher accomplishment than what had been accomplished in the past.

This was the toughest season that they've gone through than what was gone through in the past.

This is Alabama team that one more SEC games than any other Alabama team before them.

This is an Alabama team that beat number seven number four and number three to end their season.

This is the Alabama team that won seven out of the 15 college football awards on this team they lead.

They had the number one rushing TD maker in college football.

They had the number one receiver also won the Heisman.

They got the best quarterback in Matt Jones.

Dickerson, who was hurt, didn't play in the game.

And so this season for Alabama and honestly, every team across the country that actually ended up playing football through these circumstances needs toe.

Not only did Alabama compass all those things and win a national championship.

The fact that the Big 10 wasn't gonna play the Pac 12 wasn't gonna play.

They found a way and push through and find a way.

And they should honestly highlight this season to say the amount of work, the amount of focus, the amount of effort, the amount of people it took to get a season in is so impressive that this season needs to be highlighted.

I don't disagree with any of your points, Joey, But again and after it doesn't necessary doesn't necessarily commentator Negative, does it?

Now I'm agreeing with you and saying it should be an asterisk that says thank you.

And plus, this is a plus on this, not a one that says this wasn't legit.

First of all, Stephen a just to clear this up asinine doesn't mean brilliant.

I would never associate brilliance with you having a hard I would never associate brilliance with you, so I didn't use the word.

Other teams played 100 1011 games in Major League baseball.

First half winners played second half winners in order to advance to the playoffs.

So there was a third tier of playoffs, which didn't used to exist in 1981 of major league baseball.

I mean, as I said 9 11, Those were extraordinary circumstances.

Where maybe aren't is in touch with that feeling.

There was a sense of danger in public gatherings, etcetera and major league.

So what do you think that half of the world in November 1st time it had happened?

But when it went for clarification purposes, when do you think it's needed?
