    fuck'em. they had a choice to a vaccinate or not. 

  • Wtf is wrong with some of y’all? NC State knew the health and safety rules and the risks of showing up with unvaccinated players. They made their own beds and have to suffer the consequences.  It’s on

    That might explain why our bats may seem like they stay on our shoulders at times. Magnets.

Anything to get that whistler outta there.

I'm told by leading medical experts that you can't whistle if somebody puts a pillow over your face in room 1210 at the Omaha Hilton.  

Hey. Assholes. Let's go win this shit.

I have yet to say anything incriminating if she is actually in the danger zone. Maybe I meant "omg Leiter's sister - so cool she gets to watch her brother play".

I was simply going to ask how much to buy the dutch girl.

Only 2 hits and no runs. 15K’s that’s nuts. 

That’s gotta be a record, right? Right?!?

North Carolina state fans are partying at the hotel. 
Their AD just introduced himself to me and said he is a huge fan of Del Conte.

Well you can…..just not overly long.

So, CWS night games so far:

Vandy-Wolfpack - 1 run, 24ks

Texas-Miss State - 3 runs, 33ks

Zona-Vandy - 13 runs, 29ks

 

vs the day games

 

Stan-Zona - 19 runs, 13ks

Virginia-Tenn - 6 runs, 18ks

Wolfpack-Stan - 14 runs, 21ks

 

Basically, I'm just holding out some hope that our bats aren't quite as terrible as they looked on Sunday. 

 

 

I never played baseball as a kid and have only been following Texas baseball since the 02 season so I’m relatively new to baseball. Here’s my observation and question.

the miss st pitcher looked really good. Our bats looked incredibly terrible. We were swinging late and low tons of times and watching some of what looked like very hit-able  balls go right by.  So  which was really which. Did he make us look that bad or did we make him look that great?

It was the gambling trifecta of suck.  The pitcher was throwing great pitches, the ump had a shitty large yet inconsistent strike zone, and our hitters did both fail to adjust and watched a shitload of good pitches which all made for him appearing to be the most dominant pitcher in CWS history.

We better beat the road construction orange hillbillies here in a bit.

Both.  

He was very good and we sucked and insisted on continuing to suck by making zero adjustments.

And, yes, the inhebriated home plate ump didn't help either.

Great pitcher + big strike zone + passive hitters only swinging for the fences = strikeout party

Dear ESPN,
I've turned on the game twice, and both times the whistler(s) made it unwatchable. Please get your mikes away from those assholes or turn the mikes near them off. Until you do so I probably will never watch a Vanderbilt game.

Thanks,
Blacklab. 

We can only hope that vandy is eliminated on Wednesday 

I wish we could get a number from the televised games as to how many times the plate ump call was opposite of what the "box" showed.

Very accurate description.

And I'd add in "+ coaches who sit with thumbs up their asses" just to round it all out.

Something the Yankees really popularized in the 90s & 2000s was getting a pitcher off his rhythm even when they were getting mowed down. Lots of stepping out of the box, lots of calling time at the last possible moment, lots walking over to “talk” to the 3rd base coach, etc. Annoying to watch but that was kind of the point. Led to more mistake pitches that they could capitalize on. We really could’ve used that approach Sunday once we saw how on his game the MSST pitcher was. Hopefully Pierce learns. 

Apparently, it was just too much to ask for.  Pierce and Co must of had some late night Jeopardy to watch.

Not to be a wet towel, but I think we've already lost the equal shine and bounce game against these hillbillies.

Advantage aggy.

When you combine aggy & Jeopardy...

 

 

And so it begins. 
The great purging of SEC teams from the CWS of our time.

Wait! Some people don’t want an all-SEC Championship? What is wrong with you people - you want Bristol’s unemployment to spike?

You should step back from that ledge, my friend
 

Is everyone confident or worried. less than 2 hours till the game and no game thread.. 

There’s going to be an ass load of disappointed hillbillies here in Omaha in about 5 hours

Also, sorry MSUdawg, but hopefully a lot of disappointed Mississippi trailer park residents about 5 hours after that

I brought the bad juju yesterday so someone else is welcome to take a shot at it.

No worries. I love disappointing your dreams.

I was about to say I'll do it. I can't stand Tennessee. 

I'm surprised the LSU fans aren't on here saying go horns so they can go ahead and get their new coach.

From my very unscientific Tigerdroppings sample I'm not quite sure I agree w/your police work there Lou.
