to be fair, there's a good chance it's a false positive, like all the others

Get that stupid shit out of here.  Negged.

Wait....WTF?

You know that over half your team isn't vaxxed (and thus is subject to the protocols).

You know that there's a "bug" going around your team.

And you just DGAF, and let them expose over half your team -- requiring isolation per the protocols that you knew about in step 1?

Jesus. What a dumbass.

Goddammit. Living in Raleigh, I was really excited about a potential NCSt v Texas final.

[Terry Silver 219]

How long do these players have to sit out?

Wait, so you really expect an NCAA Division 1 baseball coach to just "Not enter the NCAA Tournament" just because only half the team was vaccinated? 

Or, I don't know, make his players get vaccinated?  Is that a wild idea?

Jesus. What a dumbass.

the bug was Sunday/Monday apparently. it could have been non Covid related.  they are tested every other day so they would have failed before this.

I believe Pierce said all our guys were vaxed a while back.

[PantsTent 2002]

Tobacco Road Aggy did this to themselves. 
 
 
 

I sure hope that one team is Texas. Stanford might be that smart.

This.  If this was happening to Texas right now, I'd want CDC's and Pierce's heads on a platter.

Alternative version:

Craig Way has talked about this.  required to be vaxxed to be on the team, along with all trainers, student helpers, announcers, docs, everyone.    He had to be vaxxed just to be allowed on the plane.

get the fuck out of here. 

[dcar00 14023]

Vandy can probably throw their Tuesday starter at this point.  my guess is they give Rocker 2-3 innings.

[Don Johnson 4744]

No way I start Rocker today if I'm Corbin

 

[Guest Lobo]

And I didn't hear one player or his family bitch or whine about it being unfair or unconstitutional for the vaccine to be required.  The conversation was simple, you want to be a good teammate, and you wanna wear that "TEXAS" across your chest...you take your shots like a man and go out and take out any anger you might have about that on the opposing pitcher.

That might explain why our bats may seem like they stay on our shoulders at times. Magnets. 

[NorthLoop 14071]

So when the fuck does this game start? 

[cabowabo 4449]

Dumbfucks.

Not necessarily. Some people don't test positive for a few days after symptoms.

Now

Play stupid games, when stupid prizes.

Bill Gates whispering "swing batta batta" in their micron cochlear chips

[hayden_horn 11360]

this is the ultimate in fuck around and find out. i can't figure out whether to choose for the nc state players who are vaxxed and trying to make it work or not. this is incredible in june of 2021.

[Dr. Teeth 5813]

If the pitcher gets the ball within the 1 foot of the plate, it’s a strike. 

[dcar00 14023]

it might be 14 failed tests but it could be 1 or 2 + contact tracing anyone not vaxed.  just a guess.  not sure how contact tracing is applied in the protocol.

Meanwhile, Hudson Card is out here missing two weeks of spring practice when he's in the middle of a QB dogfight. Smart.

[Guest Lobo]

Of course i'm pulling for the current N.C. State squad.  They did what a good teammate would do and tried to protect their guys from disease spread.  And then they went out and played great baseball the first two games of this CWS.  They're moving to positions they haven't played since high school or Pony Leagues and have to lift each other up once again because half their teammates are selfish idiots.  Sugarcoat if you want to, these 13 guys aren't folding, they're heading into what could be an embarrassing 18 innings and it's just the 13 of 'em out there on an island with one helluva big fucking dipshit for a coach.

so like last night

[NorthLoop 14071]

Why hello there NC State blondo 

[Valmy77 13092]

Wow this Wolfpack pitcher's ERA goes down about a  run everytime he gets an out.

Had the same exact thought

[Guest Lobo]

I would like to vaccinate her.  In her mouth.  With my penis.  

[TexasPride10 573]

If NC State can keep this game close, or even win it, it's going to be the most fun baseball game they've ever played in their lives. 

[Don Johnson 4744]

Pitch count gonna be huge in this one.

[Bevo14 8260]

Vandy coach really attacking those nostrils

[Surly Bevo 24692]

With only 4 pitchers a 20+ pitch first inning will be suboptimal

It just means more.

I think he's mocking the N.C. State covid-19 nasal swabs.

[Valmy77 13092]

Well on the plus side for NC State, nobody can do a shift on a player they have never scouted.

[dcar00 14023]

if NC State only has 4 pitchers then I think his only option is to try 2-3 innings per and hopefully get away with 30 or so pitches per and do the same thing tomorrow.  If he doesn't he might have to forfeit tomorrow.

This is like some decent local area 14U Majors team showing up to play the Alamo Drillers
