Good luck Stanford, you're going to need it. 2pm Friday should be 102° climbing to 106°, heat index around 110°, gentle 13mph wind to keep the sand off the ground and in the air.

How do those lines work?  Are those the payoffs on a $100 bet?  So a bet or Arky only nets a $75 profit if they win?  Or is it $175?

[NeverMarryAStripper 21920]

a + means that is the payoff on a $100 bet (over and above getting your $100 back)

Gotcha.  Gracias.

[TornACL 7722]

I am no expert but my favorites right now would be Vandy, Texas, Virginia, Arizona based on what I have seen. 

Arkansas is terrifying in one game but in the CWS their pitching depth, or lack thereof, is a problem. 

[Valmy77 13265]

They clearly showed they they are willing to throw their best dude until his arm falls off. That can make up for a lot.

[NeverMarryAStripper 21920]

Not if his arm does in fact fall off

Super Regionals plus the Euro group stages, it's like combo March Madness. Goodbye productivity.

Pretty good odds for in the Tech through Stanford range

Yeah from noon on, day drinking might be fully engaged. I know the ECU fans here in the Triangle are going to be partaking.

 

[Guest Lobo]

Current temperature in Palo Alto is 50 degrees.  Gametime temperature in Lubbock will be 105 degrees.  I'm sure the 36 hours they've spent there was more than enough time for the Cardinal to acclimate to the heat of the Great Plains of Texas.

It’s Friday and baseball March madness is happening. Mix ya up a Bloody Mary and roll a j dude. Gonna be a kickass 4 days

And the Supers are underway with an unusually nautical theme for Tennessee:

Commodores

vs

Pirates

Yeah not looking good so far. Especially after ECU went with the "swing at everything early" strategy with Kumar.

[TrashMaster G 17584]

And I am quickly reminded why I absolutely HATE Vanderbilt baseball.

I always watch it with the volume off.

ECU just swinging at everything. Bold strategy.

Exactly what I was coming to post. I love watching good baseball but absolutely hate vandy because of that asshat whistler. 

1-0 vandy. 

[CBT 1283]

I wanted to ask if that was a normal thing. jfc shut up.

[WBT 20650]

Pajamas strike first, up 1-0 on trucker hats

[Valmy77 13265]

Vandy only got one home after that double.

We'll see if ECU can ever touch Kumar.

It is constant and every game.

I'm starting my MBA there in August. I was looking forward to baseball games, but I may not be able to stand them in person. Additionally, it's looking like this is the worst time to leave Austin and UT sports, as all three look to be forces for the future. Ironic that Beard took their best basketball player as well.

The country will outpour funds for your defense if your firmly plant your fist enough to remove his teeth. 

 

[zlavydra 2123]

ECU no. 9 hitter sporting the worst OPS I've ever seen on a tournament team - .550.  Strong.

Decent mix this year.  If we can't win it all, I'm fine with any but Arkie, LSU, Ole Miss, and Stanford.

[WBT 20650]

Vandy has a turf mound?  And I thought the turf around our bases was bush league.

[MAROON 445]

Williams ranked #64 in MLB draft projection - has some great stuff.

[Valmy77 13265]

Kumar is perfect through 3. Time to break it up.

There are actually two of those asshats:  https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/college/vanderbilt/2019/05/25/vandy-whistler-vanderbilt-baseball-fan/1243202001/

First time I've seen Kumar other than highlights.  He has great mechanics.

[Valmy77 13265]

Hah! Right on cue.

Vandy should wear fedoras with their Prohibition gangster pajamas.

Leadoff single for ECU

Thank you ESPN "he hasnt allowed a hit today" boom hit.

I do not think that Arkansas is 3 times more likely to win it all than Texas but we shall see. Or over twice as likely as Vandy for that matter.

Fun while it lasted.

[Valmy77 13265]

That is one fired up Commodore on 2nd base.

[jw4381 3093]

Somebody shove a whitle down that whistler's throat, please? kthanks
