  1. The whole damn SEC has wet dreams about "salary caps" so that Texas will be at a recruiting disadvantage again by Texas following the rules while the rest of the SEC schools re-deploy their Bagmen that they were using the entire time before NIL/collectives started up. Article from a decade ago: "Meet the bag man: 10 rules for paying college football players - How to buy college football players, in the words of men who deliver the money." https://www.bannersociety.com/2014/4/10/20703758/bag-man-paying-college-football-players
  2. Oh great! That's even worse to realize that LSU passed us while we're fucking around with a Tulane coach who's in over his head. FFS
  3. The socals are the only baseball program that has more national titles than Texas. Even more reason to hate them.
  4. PERFECT season! Lulz.
  5. Need less Din and moar Djarin.
  6. Otter needs to stand on his head like Eddie and his bumblebee-skates did back then, and likewise climb inside The Oil's heads with both leg blockers on. Lulz.
  7. Another tussle with "The Oil" as Razor likes to say.
  8. My AT&T U-verse smartphone app has freely carried all the SEC+ Network baseball games, and that's been the case for several years. You could find any SEC baseball game you wanted, even if it was a SEC school playing the school-for-the-blind in non-conference. It remains to be seen if that continues for free in the future.
  9. I agree. They always seem to discard what happens in the conference tournament if you're already qualified for the regionals.
  10. Really fucking sick of that goddamned joke the Jawja fucksticks have said forever from that game. FUCK Jawja!
  11. Just saw this.... "SEC on ABC" logo unveiled this week: https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/espn-unveils-new-sec-on-abc-logo-ahead-of-2024-college-football-season/
  12. We stopped playing ASU during the regular season many years ago because of multiple retaliatory bench-clearing brawls. That's what I was thinking about the last time we beat them in a regional.
  13. Would Cougar High tank meaningless games to make sure Texas doesn't get a bye? It sure looked like it. FUCK Cougar High, FOREVER!
  14. SEC+ logo probably
  15. His attention to details like that, yet Bellmont couldn't demand proper burnt-orange uniforms and proper burnt-orange colored designs on the baseball/football fields was chicken-shit. His name is DeLoss.
  16. With some of the extreme-shifts so many Texas batters were getting, I can't believe they refused-to/didn't-know-how-to bunt or drag-bunt until they stopped the extreme-shifts. The stubborn attitude of, "Nope! I'm going to hit the ball exactly to the same locations like I always do, because I don't want to try to hit to that huge open space!" Bullshit, especially by all the lefty-dead-pull-hitters Texas has, and oblige shitty-byu/etc. teams by hitting the ball exactly into the extreme-shift for the easy-outs, when the 3rd-baseman hugs the left field line behind 3rd base and there's no one between him and anywhere near 2nd-base, just made me want to pull my hair out. Dee has gotten the shift treatment, too, and he could have just laid down a bunt towards 3rd and, with his speed, got a hit every time -- but I've never seen him do it. FFS
  17. During my time at The 40 Acres during GusBall, I never got to keep one. The last one I grabbed, I whipped out a pen and signed my name on it before a student-manager came and took it from me. Lulz.
  18. Net didn't exist for the public in the 70s and most of the 80s -- WWW didn't start until '89.
  19. That wasn't even mentioned when I played. Lulz.
  20. Ha! I also grew up in the Houston area, watched the Astros/Rockets/Aeros of the 70s/80s/90s in person, so I saw many greats play in person, too. Mom (who was a RN) was a first-aid-room tech/nurse in the Houston Colt .45s' old Colt Stadium for a couple seasons -- a few years later moved to SF and saw more greats play for the Giants when they first moved out to SF.
  21. Watch Ernie's interviews on YT. He was always happy, doubleheaders just made him more happy. Lulz.
  22. I wonder if the rare Friday Double-Header will be on the menu.
