Other tidbits from Johnson's press conference today in Omaha:
quote:

This is my favorite place in the world.

quote:

I’m addicted to winning.

quote:

Skenes was launching homers in fall, as impressive as it gets. If I had made him a position player, he’d have 20 homers right now and be batting fifth or sixth in our lineup.

. I think 46 is a great age. Not too old and not too young.

Was Hurd at the presser a prelude to game 1??? If you leave off Dick Howser award winner….

Or was he just throwing Thatcher a bone…

Don’t see many athletes like Skenes these days; reminds me a lot of myself, I I was super good at PS2 shooters like Timesplitters but would also clean shop playing Halo on Xbox

Just an incredible talent

I still hate UF for 2017, but to be fair Caglione is no slouch playing both ways.

And shite I kinda miss PS2 & Xbox… what an era that was.

I do not, however, miss memory cards.

I notice Texas has an intimidator billboard in their outfield just like ours. The format is very similar. Who copied who? They have 6 titles just like us but their last one was ‘85, lol.

Well if we make it to the championship series and he pitches and wins game 1. Let him DH game 2.

Could you imagine?!? He pitches and wins game 1 of CWS final and then hits homer in game 2 preserving the win!

I was at my best from 45 to 55. Definitely fading some at almost 61.
