  1. Like calling home plate "the candy dish?"
  2. Latest regular season numbers from D1: D1Baseball Top 25: • D1Baseball "Big 12 regular-season champ TCU made the week’s biggest leap, up six spots to No. 18. Texas and UCLA moved up three spots apiece to 22 and 23, respectively. Three teams entered the rankings this week: Oklahoma jumped in at No. 21 after winning a series at Texas Tech. East Carolina returned to the rankings at No. 22 after running its winning streak to 14 straight games. And LSU returned to the rankings after a one-week absence by sweeping Vanderbilt. The Tigers checked in at No. 23. Connecticut, Florida State and Vandy dropped out of the Top 25. D1Baseball editors and national writers determine the Top 25 rankings."
  3. I guess they use the combined W-L records when coming up with 2,3,4? Tech had a combined 4 wins, while OU had 3?
  4. And now, thank you Red Raiders.
  5. Thank you, Baylor...thank you, Sooners.
  6. Ponies are able to take butthurt to a whole 'nother level. They need to find out who decided to expand Ford Stadium and kick his/her ass.
  7. TCU scores 7 in the 5th to go up 8-3 over OU.
  8. Pearl and Jax? Maybe even Falstaff?
  9. I heard an interesting interview several years ago from Leo Durocher. He was known for being a hotheaded, fiery manager who loved to get nose to nose with umpires and got tossed regularly. He was also known for kicking dirt on the ump's legs as he was headed back to the showers. When asked about it years later he said that back in his day, the umpires had to furnish their own uniforms, and the groundskeepers used actual lye for the white lines on the basepaths. What he was doing was trying to maneuver the ump to a spot while he was yelling so that he could kick lye from the chalk line onto the ump's trousers, where the lye would eat holes in it and then he's have to buy a new pair of pants. Now THAT is some serious planning ahead.
  10. Even better yet, although I was thinking collectively.
  11. There is almost nothing better in the world than seeing Baylor getting their asses whipped.
  12. It was broadcast on okstate.com as a free broadcast. Some technical difficulties, but overall a good broadcast. Good weekend for the Frogs.
  13. TCU is trending up at just the right time of the year. This weekend's series with the Pokes will answer a lot of questions.
  14. Tonight's game...Tech at TCU. Tech had the bases loaded in the top of the 9th, down by 1. They thought the TCU reliever had balked, but after a meeting of the umps, it was overruled. The last batter grounded out, game over. As the umps were headed off the field, they were accosted by a group of pissed off Tech players and coaches. It was not a good look. It will be interesting to see if the league says anything about it. One thing is for sure, the umps won't forget it.
  15. It is just below the nose.
  16. Sorry, I just hate them and everything about them.
  17. For even more viewing pleasure, see her in "Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw" (1976). Classic.
  18. might take a whole sock drawer full
