Title: Alabama to use Bear Bryant hologram as ESPN College Gameday guest picker

A source close to the Alabama Crimson Tide football program this morning tells For Whom the Cowbell Tolls that the school, in conjunction with its engineering department and the Paul W. Bryant museum, will roll out the former Crimson Tide legendary coach Paul "Bear" Bryant as the ESPN College Gameday guest picker on Saturday... in hologram form.

The legendary coach passed away over thirty years ago, yet through the miracles of science, the school will be able to recreate the famous coach's likeness for the camera using the latest in technology along with film and audio clippings from the Bryant museum.  The hologram will be lifelike in size, although it will be limited in its ability to discuss certain schools outside of the south and without swearing profusely when mentioning Auburn or scholarship limitations.

  SEC will likely purchase the hologram for use on the SEC Network, and that it will be worked in as the eventual replacement of Paul Finebaum on his daily radio show.

The hologram reportedly beat out Melissa Joan Hart and that dude who played the kid from Sling Blade for the honor of joining Chris, Desmond, Lee, and Kirk on stage to pick games on Saturday.
Funny stuff.   #+

It is because of the SEC/Bama bias by ESPN.  Who could be better?

That would be cool to see but I'm not going to sit and watch the entire show to see it...Does anyone know about what time that segment might air?

Usually the picks start towards the end of the show, between 10:30 and 11:00 a.m. CST.

I'm pretty sure they were just yanking our chain on that, but it will be interesting to see who the guest picker really will be. Popular opinion seems to be Channing Tatum or Lucas Black.
