Tonight was supposed to be Pawl's 1500 wins party, now a lot of folks are saying it should be his retirement party.

cheeto225•48 months

I've heard he is retiring at the end of the season..

Something just not right with this team. Really think we need shakeup to not waste talents of Morgan Crews Dugas Doughtery

Funny how some of y’all are silent when we win, but get excited to come post when we lose our first midweek game of the season.

bayoubengal014•48 months

That team was 2 games above .500.

GoneFishing21•48 months

And? Who claimed they were a great team? It happens to good teams every year. Ole Miss lost to a team with only 17 wins last night. The guys didn’t show up to play and that was obvious.

Let’s pray that it was CPM’s last game at the Box.

So funny how the reporter shows the same sad Paul face after every LSU loss

TWT•48 months

That’s because he can’t show just how sad CPM makes us!

Can’t figure this team out.

There’s not much to figure out, they suck

Hurricane Mike•48 months

Go Demon’s!

Vernonbrew22•48 months

any chance these guys win 2 of 3 in College Station? 12-18 (or just one win will not get an NCAA bid or never has). @findaway has a good point - no way to figure these guys out! Still think they are not that far behind the other top notch SEC schools. Drats

GoneFishing21•48 months

If our bats hadn’t shown up in other midweek games then we would have lost to some other teams where out pitching let us down. I think we have a pretty good shot at winning 2 or 3 in college station with our weekend rotation.

How in the world can you allow teams to come into Alex Box and beat you! There was pride back in the day. Paul got to go and bring in a coach that knows baseball. In 20 years to only have one national championship unbelievable!

GoneFishing21•48 months

Yeah no other LSU team ever lost at home

voodooidotwo•48 months

I’m just here for lsu football and to bash this sorry baseball team. And I’m alllll out of LSU football this year

GoneFishing21•48 months

We all know that by now. Your posts make it clear that you’re ignorant about the sport and yet you choose to comment anyway.

voodooidotwo•48 months

Ignorant? Just curious, how am I ignorant for saying this LSU baseball team sucks? Worst team since Smoke. I know way more about LSU baseball than you ever will. It’s why I’m pissed about this poor play

GoneFishing21•48 months

That’s not why I said you were ignorant. Your whole post history about baseball shows you really have no clue about it. And let’s be honest, you really don’t care to. You get off on coming to post every time they lose.
