can't be a homer.
Nothing "homer" about observing that one team is pitching its ace and playing for its future while the other is basically scrimmaging with backups. There was nothing about today's game that suggested Ole Miss came in with a superior team or in any way outplayed LSU. They clearly won because winning was not a priority for us. The nonstop raving about how incedibly awesome their pergomance was and how impressive they were was not only unprofessional and annoying, it was plainly ill-informed.That's disappointing from someone I hope has more talent in his future career than he showed today. I guess he was overcompensating to make sure he didn't sound like a homer, but he missed tje mark pretty badly, imo.

You must not have played sports. If anything, LSU wanted to win more today than most games. The guys playing today were trying to prove something. Also, a pitcher never goes out to the mound thinking it's okay if I give up a few runs, because we don't gain anything by winning.


The coaches limited themselves by how they subbed guys in and out early in the game.
