For Immediate Release: Coach Hal Granting All Access to Online Network
8:00 PM 8/16/10
Reports out of Hoover and Tuscaloosa tonight are that CoachHal.com has granted Youtube.com full access to the tailgate this season. Word is the show will mirror the football version of "Alabama All-Access" that has been shown on ESPNU this summer. Rumors of a reality show started last year in Tuscaloosa. The new tailgate show, the first of its kind, will center around behind-the-scenes footage of the tailgate crew. Planning, pregame, post game and during game activities will be recorded.
There have been some early negative comments regarding the new show. Most, if not all, have come from one of the tailgate's own staff. This summer, Beebo Davis reportedly demanded to be called "The Situation" on the new all access tailgate show. After producers refused to allow Beebo to show his loyalty to his favorite "Jersey Shore" cast member, he has since come out with full force. Here are just a few of his comments:
1. "Does Coach realize that youtube.com is free and we will have to televise this ourselves?"
2. "Are we getting paid? By the way Einstein, that was a rhetorical question."
3. "I guess they can pay to see me play corn hole, that would be alot better than listening to Coach talk his nonsense."
4. "Does Coach realize there is no such thing as a tailgate coach?"
5. "Why does Coach talk in third person?"
Coach Hal had this to say when reached at home tonight:
