Erxleben was our "Junior" league umpire while he was kicking for UT. It was really cool for him to be there as part of our season. This was 4th-6th grade summer baseball. I played catcher, so I got to talk to him some, and as a huge Longhorn fan that was something I always remember as a cool part of my childhood.
We won the league championship after 6th grade in 1977. We had 2 pitchers on our roster, and our 2nd pitcher went on family vacation during the week of the championship game. We didn't have a pitch count back then, but our 1st pitcher's arm was completely done after having to pitch too much to get us to that game. Our coach was like, well, who wants to try and pitch this game? I said I'll do it, what the hell.
I pitched a 3 hitter and we won something like 5-0. Uncle Rico ain't got nothin on me, bitches.
Now back to your regular scheduled programming.
I watched the Alabama game again a couple of days ago. It was interesting in that the Horns looked like the same team we've seen all year to me. We didn't play a mistake free game. The officials did a really good job on their calls and reviews. The O line kicked ass, especially on the last drive in the 4th quarter.
It gave me a bit of confidence that we'll be ok tomorrow night. Tuscaloosa at night >>>>>>>>>>>Ames anytime as far as being a hard place to play. Let's go kick some ass, yo.
