  1. This or whatever happened to Sounder.
  2. You make a good point. I just think there has to be dudes out there with talent and a sack that can compete as freshman and sophomores. Nixon looked great last year. He has regressed. He didn't become less physically competitive, he lost his mental edge. While not wholly responsible, a good coach will help get that back. Its almost May and he has had one good outing in 45 days.
  3. Stevens had 2 exceptionally shitty starts this year. Like, unbelievably shitty starts.
  4. Johnson has a huge upside. Duplantier needs to be put out to pasture. I hope I am wrong but he is mentally not capable of pitching for this team. The self doubt about the surgery is palpable.
  5. I get it but we don't have a single freshman or sophomore pitcher that intuitively knows how to pitch at this level? Were Madden and Hansen getting their shit packed by teams like AF during their freshman and sophomore years? If they were, I don't remember that.
  6. You know, I like to blame the staff but when those guys signed with Texas none of them envisioned getting shelled by AF. There is a failure but it isn't the players. They aren't being developed.
  7. It seems like this game started at 4pm.
  8. Gordon, Harrison and Johnson have a ton of potential.
  9. Why the fuck did we throw a hittable pitch on 0-2?
  10. Why can't he get on top of that pitch?
  11. How the fuck do you get to Texas without knowing how to throw 3 pitches?
  12. I know I have said it before but there are a fuckton of D1 relievers who have success with 87-90mph. They aren't the weekend starters, they aren't the Tuesday starters, they aren't closers. However, they don't give up 5 hrs to AF in a single game. With the exception of Cobb, I think all of our pitchers today have sat 90-95 with flat fastballs and a very mediocre team has fucking just wrecked our staff. They did it yesterday, too. Do we have a pitching coach that will tell these guys that this isn't 6A or summer ball and D1 hitters are all capable of teeing off on poorly located 95? Also, when did Texas decide that throwing 2 pitches consistently is enough?
  13. I like that Faltine is hitting for more power this year but he Ks a lot. He swings at any fastball between the letters and his eyes.
  14. I see that DDA is in attendance. Any of you Occupy Left Field dudes know him?
  15. Yep. Cobb isn't really throwing from a different arm slot. He is just short-arming low 80s fastballs.
  16. Whelp, I am going to sit in my running car in a closed garage.
  17. "We got kids that want to take some lives. They want to put warheads on some foreheads." LOL
  18. That chick from My Sister Sam Sharon Tate Natalie Wood
  19. Yeah, bouncing a fastball that hit a batter is just shit.
  20. Is it me or does AF look more competitive on the mound than UT?
  21. You’re paying 3k a month in property taxes? Good for you…I guess?
