We're still forming the Curt Cignetti Character Narrative. But methinks if that was Nick Saban saying that everyone would say “Ah he's smartly planting the seeds for calls in the second half.”

But from what we can tell about Cignetti the belief is “Ah he's just pissed.”

Frank Sinkwich won the Heisman for Georgia in 1942. Apparently adding “ie” to his name was an NFL fatal flaw.
