Alabama coach Nick Saban reveals the only present he got for his 65th birthday

Monday was a day for celebration across America -- no, we’re not talking Halloween, we’re talking Nick Saban’s birthday!

The Alabama football coach turned 65, which raises the fascinating question: What do you get a man who has five national championships, more money than he can spend and even has Alabama boosters paying off his mortgage?

Well, as it turns out not much. As Saban explained at a press conference, he got just one gift, but oh what a gift it was!

Someone got Saban a "That's bull[expletive]" button, which seems like the perfect gift for a man who takes none.

What are the chances that the person who got Saban that gift was Lane Kiffin, who never seems to be beneath some good, fun juvenile humor? I'm putting the odds at 99.99999 percent.

Oh, and for more Saban birthday fun, here's Alabama's entire team singing him "Happy Birthday."

Safe to say, Saban would gladly take a win over LSU on Saturday over any of the gags or gifts - as good as they are.
