Nick Saban Endorsing Mayoral Candidate Dorothy Davidson Thanks to Photoshop Magic

Bessemer, Ala., councilwoman Dorothy Davidson knows how important Crimson Tide football is to the locals.

So important that she was willing to Photoshop herself into a photo with Alabama football coach Nick Saban, claiming he’s endorsing her campaign.

On Tuesday, Davidson said the image of her and Saban together was real and taken about three weeks ago. However, when presented later with a 2007 photo of Saban and his wife, which was eerily similar to the photo of Davidson and Saban, the candidate acknowledged that her image was digitally added to the 2007 photo.

“They said we could do it this way,” Davidson told The Birmingham News.

“My dad, Larry Morris, and coach Saban are friends,” the country’s worst campaign manager Kevin Morris said Tuesday. “We were on the golf course one day, and I asked him myself if this would be OK.”

However, in another not-so-surprising twist of fate, Morris took a step back on Wednesday afternoon and told the media that he lied to Davidson and said the photo of the coach and his wife, Terry, was actually of Saban and his mother. He said he told Davidson that Saban had agreed to the alteration of the picture.

“I lied,” Morris said. “[Davidson] didn’t do anything wrong.”

Comment of the Day

Some NESN.com readers avoid sugar-coating their thoughts when it comes to the men in Black and Gold.

“Time for
him to take his pink panties off and put on the big boy jock. The kid
has all the tools, just needs to use them. 18 goals in a sophmore year
ain’t all bad, but only finishing your hits 25% of the time, that’s a
problem. And like drd said, it’s make or break, so if he wants to make
it, then go out and break some people. He has what it takes.”
