LSU makes controversial decision to send their drinkers back in on short rest.

OMAHA NEWS-

The Tigers shocked the CWS this morning after the decision to send their lead off Drinkers back in the game for morning warmups. Their veteran drinkers, who had already been in tailgate warmup mode the last two days, pounded shots through the first four innings.

When the game went into rain delay, their drinkers continued as if nothing changed, perhaps going even harder, in assumption that the game would resume that night. "We didn't want to lose our edge." One said.

That momentum carried until almost 11 pm, when the announcement came that the game was postponed until 10 am the following day. After several more rounds to "cool off", it was widely assumed that the Tigers would need to bring in their relief drinkers after their Aces went so many rounds.

Yet, in the clear of the morning, LSU found their relievers...AND their starters, back in warmups. "Mama didn't raise no punk.", one slurred. "I can go all night, and all day." (His wife gave a look of doubt.)

"Reporters with UCLA had this to say.

'We rely on a deep bullpen of short service drinkers. They've got a variety of drinks in their arsenal. A wine cooler, watered down Jell-O shot, maybe a white claw. We've been known to throw down a bud light on occasion, and we supplement with mocktails. We're used to our drinkers not being able to go the distance. We'll be fine.'"


ETA 2:Update: OMAHA NEWS-

What some considered a gamble paid off for the Tigers as their top drinkers powered through inning after inning, refusing to relinquish their lead in inebriation to the Bruins in Sissy Blue.

After bloody Mary morning warmups, Tiger drinkers powered through until deep into the game, while the Bruins rotated out light beer sippers and mostly orange juice mimosas. Bawbert Hebert showed off his ambidextrous ability by chugging PBR tallboys with either hand. He credited a bellyful of jambalaya for the win, and then rattled off some garbled Coach O gibberish before ending with "Geaux Tigahs."

Tiger drinkers now have a day off to recuperate, with only some light drunkenness on the schedule, before resuming debauchery on Wednesday. The Bruins now prepare to face the moonshine soaked Arkansas Drinkers at 6pm.
