2018 Big 12 Baseball Thread
I'll go out on a limb and state that neither of us want our team to wear these again, but the 80's are gonna 80.

Why is Jacksonville a city?
I guess all those auto plants in the southeast export? I guess I always just thought they were building for the US market.

Why is Jacksonville a city?
has a pretty good size port - apparently handles the second most # of autos of any port in the US. So military, port, meth, and golf would be the leading industries.

Vasectomy
the perfect time for the vasectomy is the Wednesday before the first Thursday of March Madness. Then you get to vegetate for the remainder of the weekend, even though you're really good to go on Day 2.....(shhhhhh don't' let the wife know). Basketball, frozen peas on your sack, cold beer. Really makes for a fun four days.

Little League 2018 season
it was years go, but you're are correct - he never managed again, but he will tell you it was his choice....it wasn't. I was on the board then. Man its amazing some of the things I saw as a board member and the e-mails we would get from parents and coaches. I wish I kept them all, as it wold make for fun reading today.

Little League 2018 season
WULL guy here. Back in the machine pitch days we had a line that the defensive players could not cross (essentially they could not set-up in front of the machine) for their own safety. Of course one of the Managers figured that was a perfect recipe for his team to bunt.. I shit you not he had his team bunt like 12 times in a row because it was almost physically impossible for the other team to defense against it. He got called out and the rule was changed to stop all bunting in machine pitch. Total dick move by him. Especially his arguement that he was teaching the kids how to properly bunt.

Escuela Me on Mexican Music
great stuff. It never dawned on me about the origin of Conjunto until someone mentioned it was the Germans that came to Tejas and introduced the accordian. Makes so much sense, and I also lover the German polkas.

sort of like building in a 100 year flood zone- 2018 Houston Astros Season Thread
would DFA Sipp since he serves zero purpose on this roster. Keep Gattis in the hope he figures it out, and bring up another hitter.- 2018 Houston Astros Season Thread
he will have a spreadsheet full of stats to spout off in post-game as to why that was the calculated move to make. His feel for the game is sometimes not so sharp.- 2018 Houston Astros Season Thread

I would say being over-selective is the #1 issue with Marwin. He takes way too many fastballs right down the middle for first or second strike. Never seen anything like it.- Little League 2018 season
Ya South campus thankfully didn't materialize as a place to play games (we just practiced there) until my son was already in Juniors. When we had McGovern it was better, from a travel perspective, but selling McGovern enabled us to develop South Campus and set-up the long-term survival of the league. It insured we had control of our fields and were no longer subject to the whim of a school board or elementary school principal.- Little League 2018 season
yep. Former WULL guy here. We had plenty of styro, tervis tumblers back in the day in the stands. Then we got an attorney as head of the league and between that and HISD cracking down (we have some of our fields on their property) there was a general push to stop it. Sort of amazing POLL still does it considering the number of uptight attorneys in that league along with the fact that all their fields are on HISD property.- Hey Oil Barons.......

not top five, but this always reminds me of the 60's. Agree with everyone else that For What Its Worth is the quintessential 60's song.- Rice Owls Baseball thread
Pettite was there last year, but not sure about this year. The other assistant is Raynor Noble. Story on why Lance is not at Rice. He did work under Wayne for a bit, but Wayne pulled him aside and said he didn't want Lance messing with the lower body of his hitters. He could only work on the arm action in the swing. Lance supposedly said to him that he had 366 career Home Runs, how many did you have?....knowing full well Wayne had Zero. Lance walked out, never to be seen from again.- Renaming Robert E Lee Rd.
