Steve Spurrier is Mad That Life Isn't Fair

On Tuesday South Carolina Head Coach Steve Spurrier sat down to talk to Dan Patrick about his team, the off-season,  and of all things, social media.  It wasn't the fact that the 66 year old Spurrier hated Twitter that surprised me, it was that he still hasn't outgrown being a tattletale. 

Spurrier was upset that Alabama received what he called "favorable treatment" from ESPN.  Spurrier's complaints revolved around the ESPN special on Alabama's training camp and the Alabama "Roll Tide" commercial  that aired during last year's bowl season.  Spurrier was so upset by this "favorable treatment" that he went to SEC commissioner Mike Slive to complain.  This is where it gets really 3rd grade tattletale,  Spurrier asked Mike Slive "what ever happened to Go Gators, Rocky Top, or Go Gamecocks?"  Spurrier says he just didn't think it was very fair.
