  1. Surprised to see us that high, and since our running game was dogshit (maybe 32nd in league?! Can’t remember) it’s obviously due to effective passing game. Not sold on Mills yet but his high efficiency and low turnover rate (first quarter very bad but last 3/4 of season was a great TO ratio) clearly have a great effect on the most important part of the field. TE group should continue to improve which can only help this stat.
  2. Pitching. Pitching. Pitching. This team is badass. And, good for Breggy!
  3. Hopefully it’s ‘personally signed’ by someone else.
  4. The more the term “at least a year” gets mentioned by Rappaport & Company, the more that seems like it’ll be the case for his suspension. Not rooting for it one way or another, but if that happens, he will have lost two prime years of his career, bringing his career total yardage down by as much as 7k or 8k, and career TDs down by 60 or 70. Not small numbers. And he lost time to injury already. Yikes.
  5. What’s beyond ‘priapism’ is really all I need to know.
  6. We’re going to have a wonderful problem on our hands when McCullers returns. Nice to see Rake back as well, I think he’ll be CF for a while, kids a stud.
  7. Suggesting a no hitter shouldn’t be celebrated is the equivalent to having never lived in New York but rooting for the Yankees. So, that’s strike two.
  8. Even the ancient Romans understood the importance of the Arch. 🤘🤘🤘
  9. Today is the day Yordon Corleone settles all family business.
  10. Doesn’t hurt Shaggy 1%ers like me who are flush with Best Buy coupons and elite yard sale finds, but for most people, cutting fat checks hurts as much, and punishes as much, as other relative judicial punitive action. Watson may be getting off easy (teehee!) because he has lots of cash but I doubt he’s shrugging it off. This is going to be expensive.
  11. Baseball can be a beautifully simple sport. We need big improvement in pitching, we need hitters to step up big to replace Ivan and become more dangerous from top to bottom of the lineup. Whats complicated is actually solving those problems. I like Pierce, putting my trust in him to work it out. We don’t need a bunch of transfers, but we need some Antico-level magic in at least one of them.
  12. If you had told me at the very beginning of the season that we would make Omaha, I would’ve taken it for granted. After seeing who this team really was, I’m very happy with Omaha, even if we performed poorly once there. Sometime we played like a top 8 team but most of the season we really didn’t. Well done to the guys to dig deep when in tough spots and overcome some major slumps. Proud of those guys. Horns up for a very entertaining season. 🤘🤘🤘
  13. Great ND pitching and some bad luck on hard hit balls, shit happens. Lets put aggy in their place and come back for revenge.
  14. Nothing has ever gone wrong with a Mater Dei commit. Pumped!
  15. ECU is better than some teams we will see in the Series. That was a damn good team we beat to punch the ticket. They lost three games in their last 24, two to us. I fear no one. Back to Omaha! 🤘
