Fly home safely.

Here's my annual post bitching about them not switching the loser's bracket winners to the other bracket to insure that the two best teams meet in the championship.

So 10am, then 2pm, then 6pm

Missed the old Dr. Pepper ad by a smidge...

With that hostility in your heart, how you feel about touting runner up finishes?

I don’t remember how it played out exactly but from memory, South Carolina was not 2nd best in 2002.  Florida was not 2nd best in 2005.  Seems like Rice and Stanford fought better opponents before the championship series during that time too.  And the Aggie in me says Vandy was not #2 in 2021.

I hate that commercial so much. I don’t even know exactly why.

Maybe because it gets fucking played at every fucking commercial break of every fucking game of the CWS?

I laugh, but it's not the worst decision they could make.

UK baserunner lucky not to be waiting for an ambulance after that abortion of a slide …

That was ugly. I once slid across the plate, turned an ankle when spikes caught the dirt like that, and got my hand underneath me... wound up with my pinky finger pointing the wrong way. No fun at all.

[Beau Vine 54256]

[Tex Long 4402]

Not looking like a pitcher's duel today.

[LTtxfan 49265]

I guess defense is optional today  😋

They should just fence off that area as unplayable …

Tore my acl when I hurdled a catcher to score and my cleets stuck on homeplate.

[LTtxfan 49265]

That was about as bad an outfield play as you can make without getting  e big ol' "E" next to your name...

Take WEGOVY and suffer depression and thoughts of suicide, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. We need to keep seeing this ad again and again and again.

[Beau Vine 54256]

Holy fuck!  Touchdown!

[LTtxfan 49265]

UK coach right now... 💯

 

[Underdog 28712]

LOL… it was a fun ride while it lasted.  Good luck tonight, Gators. 

[cmontexas 3272]

I dont see how Cags isnt consensus 1-1

[LTtxfan 49265]

After 1 complete...     7-1 Gata  😋

[Tex Long 4402]

Kentucky looks lost. Could be something toxic in that blue moustache paint?

Not a lot of answer there in T2.

Zero fire. How 'bout it, Coach, got a light? 7-1 bottom of 2.

[Helobious 9462]

The Florida coach is like 0-17 in challenges lately.

Papa Smurf has their only RBI

Starting to wonder if I should just pull for rout and short game so Gata has better chance to beat aggy tonight???

Damn autocorrect

FLA Coach picks some strange things to waste his challenges on. I'm ahead 7-1, not gonna challenge a HBP that the batter doesn't even flinch on.

[Beau Vine 54256]

I don't think that should be interference.  He's in the baseline and that wasn't intentional.

[Underdog 28712]

Shit’s rigged.

Intent is hard to prove, but Kentucky is on a roll of fucking up, so...

Pop up slide 10 feet short of the bag in the throwing lane …

I think you mean 'Fixed'

 I don't really pay attention to baseball until the regionals, but my sense of things is that this Gata team can still fuck this up.

Get the run rule 

[Tex Long 4402]

Dang. FLA up 9-1, and let's burn a challenge on a close play at second. Even if it works, is it worth the chance? Oh boy, finally got one right? 

 

 

And, whew... FLA survives a challenge.

Kentucky looks like a team that found out its coach is leaving for a better job
