Adversity does not define a man. It is the reaction to that adversity that helps mold a man's character.

My guess is that the assholes saying this BS have never accomplished anything worth a damn in their entire miserable lives..

Yep...jealousy is what I'll call it.

I don't understand why you either have to absolutely love the guy or absolutely hate him. He gets his own threads to praise him and he gets his own threads to insult him. He's a member of an entire team. I feel bad for all of them equally...but not that bad I mean they were the one's playing the game. Make the plays that you didn't make. Hit the balls that you didn't hit and its a different outcome. That's sport and that's why we love it. Someone wins and someone loses.

I was never a huge Kramer fan. I'm also not Kramer hater. I'm an LSU fan and I hope every player contributes when it's their time and that goes for Kramer also. He had a great season, for the most part. Kind of lost the magic here in the end, but that happens in sports to everyone. Here's to next season and hoping he can repeat and have a good season at shortstop for us. If not someone else will step up.

I got the privilege of meeting him at the mall shortly after that tough loss to Tulane. He's a standup guy and had nothing but positive things to say. He represents LSU well and the Tiger is strong in this one. Win or lose (take notice of the spelling here people, notice I didn't say loose I'm only trying to help you avoid future embarrassment) I'm forever grateful he chose LSU and know he's going to accomplish great things.

we need more kids like Kramer. Coastal has a whole team full of dirtbags. They hang on to every pitch. Scratch and claw and dont take anything for granted. It just seemed like at times our guys were content, thinking they'd just hold a lead, or they could come back easily. Before you know it, you are out of outs.

Really dislike 2 or 3 of of our guys body language.

Kramer has constantly improved his game and he was a leader on this team. Nothing but good to say about him and his play. Hope he comes back for one more year .

can we take a second and mention the a-hole camera guy who decided to show both dugouts in the middle of the CCU pitchers windup for the 2-2 pitch to Pap with the BASES LOADED in the 8th...?

the frick was he thinking taking his camera off the plate for 5 whole seconds. the next shot was the ball getting hit weakly to second base for the ground out.

Can't you find someone who needs sympathy to champion.
How many wannabe sports fans would trade places with Kramer today.

It is not unusual to find highly competitive athletes, including baseball players, who are tools.
I remember a guy named Pete Rose.
Or, closer to home, one named Joey, er, Albert Belle.
Don't know Kramer.
