I'm excited for the for the five threads the first time Thompson strikes out or makes a bad play.

Oh I have a feeling Thompson is going to be an interesting discussion all year. I expect him to have a good year but a of people on the rant have already decided he sucks. It will take a while, if they ever do, for people to accept he is a good player and every mistake will be magnified.

The pre-season hype means it's going to be a rough go on this board from the very start of the season. The morons will be out early and often.

There will be a lot of football mentality fringe baseball fans that will make the inevitable losses insufferable on here.

Part of what I liked about CPM was his teams usually got off to a slow start and those people would lose interest and then you could have reasonable baseball discussions for a month or so before LSU would eventually go on a late run and the fringe guys would come back for the postseason.

That’s loser talk.

Undefeated bitches!!

And those seasons for those teams were a failure.

This is an Omaha team. Anything less than that this season is a failure. Doesn’t mean Jay Johnson isn’t a good coach or that the program isn’t going in the right direction but it does mean that for this particular team in 2023 they did not succeed.

Fair or not, when you are thought of highly enough to be considered the best team in the sport the expectations are at least to reach the CWS. Anything less would be failing to meet those expectations (save for something like a rash of injuries to key players).

First ever undefeated season.
