I appreciate the plate of crow you served yourself but this is what bothers me about this place.

People on this forum say that same thing and the 'midweek games don't matter' guys jump their arse and tell them they're idiots. Does it really take a former LSU star to say something so obvious for y'all to believe it?

Complacency is a disease. You let it infect you in the midweek games and you'll still have those symptoms by the weekend.

Read my post on page 2. I explained what I mean about midweeks. What Theriot was talking about is a different perspective on it, and he isn't wrong. I don't think I am either, based on what I mean when I say it.

You drop a few midweek games because you are working out pitchers who don't throw on the weekend, it's not a big deal. It is not going to hurt you at the end of the year.

You drop midweek games because your hitters decide not to give a shite, and look lazy and uninterested, that's a problem.


100%.

Everybody understands that midweek games are scrimmages for your bullpen. But the lineup is the same. Your bats should always be there raking and keeping that confidence up. If anything, the midweek games are where you go out there and smash the ball to get your confidence ready for the tough series coming up on the weekend.

He wouldn't ever do it, but Theriot is exactly what this coaching staff is missing.

I wasn't trying to attack you, brother. I was just speaking in general.

I think we're saying the same thing

And I actually like Moscona, but Theriot talking about mid week games with absolute silence from the other side was hilarious

Nolan Cain may have been the worst hire That has been made in the history of LSU baseball (besides Smoke).

We are terrible this year, and have NO ONE in the pipeline for next year.

Time to clean house starting with Pulmary and Cain.

Scott Woodward has been here a week and he's already got all the winners in the State crawling out of their caves and circling the wagons. I love it.

Wait, where are all of you geniuses that say "it's just baseball" and "you just don't know baseball"? I would say Theriot knows baseball, and he sees the exact same bullshite that is going on as we "dumbasses" do. This team is a joke and they should be pissed and embarrassed but our coach is such a pussy in every way imaginable that he can't even bring himself to motivate this team by any means neccessary. He just sits in the dugout like a bitch and shakes his head while watching it unfold. Paul is definitely at fault for this just like the players are. He's the head coach and its his responsibility to have the team ready and call them on their bs, it's his job if nothing else. The team has been uninspired just like it's coach. Amazing huh? Theriot is exactly right.

If Ryan Theriot is willing to rant in public like that then here's hoping someone in the dugout was listening.

That said:
- Maybe he can explain why we got swept by Arky in '01 and went on to lose 2 of 3 to Auburn and missed hosting the super regional.
- Let the season play out. It ain't over.

It would probably be a shorter list to ask, who would you want to keep from this staff?

So far the shite list is:

1. CPM
2. Ochinko
3. Dunn
4. Cain

A few of them are in this thread, most are avoiding it like the plague.

The ones that are in here are trying to balance that with what Theriot said

That was fricking awesome.

I could have listened to 10 more minutes of him listing LSU dudes from the past. Like the ship register in the Iliad.

What Theriot said, and what some people on the rant have been saying is not the same thing.
