Nick Saban offers a life lesson

Nick Saban, the hugely successful head football coach at the University of Alabama, offered some interesting dating advice to his players, according to an excerpt from a new biography by Monte Burke. “Ultimately,” the coach reportedly told the team, “you never want to sleep with anybody who has less to lose than you do.”

Saban found a colorful way to drive home the point. “So, ultimately, if I’m ever going to sleep around on Miss Terry [his wife], it’s going to be with Hillary F**k**g Rodham Clinton,” he declared to uproarious laughter from the team.

If true, Miss Terry has nothing to worry about.

UPDATE: Ironically, Saban might not have become Alabama’s coach if one of his predecessors had followed his philosophy of dating.
