You can think whatever you want. Jay was not happy about the constant delays yesterday.


If he said this in the media I would believe him.

Regardless, whoever made the call yesterday is a total dipshit.

No weather delays for Alex Box tonight or tomorrow. Hopefully, the Tigers can get off to a good start tonight.

We had about 12 minutes of a drizzle at 5:30 PM.
Between 2 and 3 PM there was lightening within a few miles of Alex Box Stadium.

I live about 4 miles from the stadium and the thunder was a constant rumble for about 20 minutes.

Why did you fail to mention that??

So we should have played at 4 at the latest. If there really was lightening that is.

There was zero reason to wait til 7:30. It’s inexcusable.

I didn't say it was scary. I mentioned it because there is an NCAA rule that games can't be played if there is lightening detected within 8 miles of the venue.

I'm not like you who just yesterday was complaining how scary it was for you for three hours when the bad weather went over your house in Fort Bend County.

Your internet badass schtick has grown stale and quotidian. It must be how you try to compensate for having a tiny penis.

My condolences.

It’s at 8. Blair made the announcement about 15 minutes ago

But why? 2 and half hours of nothing, then the game.

There was a 17-18 year old baseball tournament played at U High for most of the day. That's about 30 steps past the left field foul pole.

And let's not get started on the full hour of pregame infiled work for the teams, player introductions, and whatnot. Very disrepectful to our guests from Rhode Island and Dallas.

Do they play under the rules of the NCAA?

I'm only concerned about the "whatnot."

I personally enjoyed sitting in the stands and watching the pre-game activities including both teams taking infield and the roster introductions, which was a big moment and a lifetime memory for those kids and their parents.

Those teams will go home and never mention the rain delays.

They will be telling their kids and grand kids for years about how awesome it was to play in Alex Box Stadium in the Baton Rouge Regional. That's what they will remember.

Stop making shite up just so you can get your daily quota of bitching in...

There was one lightning strike within the 8 mile radius around 1:30 yesterday afternoon. That was the only one. I was watching it all afternoon.

What about the other 15 NCAA Regionals that played ball, stopped if it rained, then hopped right back on the field when it finished?

100% wrong. Complaints have been made to the NCAA.

Remember that time we played at 2:00 AM in front of 63 fans in LSU’s empty ball park? Wow, what a memory!


You keep forgetting that LSU and Little Rock weren’t the only teams that needed to play yesterday.

If you didn't hear it a Coaches Committee event, it didn't happen.

Someone treated the situation like a complete a-hole. Whoever LSU’s “site manager” is or whoever he gets his orders from, should be ashamed of themselves
