It’s like people forgot that Jobert had one foot out the door to Ole Miss because he was so deep down the depth chart coming into the fall. There was a reason for that.

it’s actually a logical response to what happened compared to flat out bashing him. Calling him trash and flat out horrible for committing an error. It happens, play for the next one.

Yes, you can make your point without being nasty. Goes to show you no one should get on the internet when their feelings are hurt

You know, he probably is. Wasn't he playing at LSUE before coming here? They've won the CC title a few times.

It was an awful play to watch, and I won't deny that. But dude overran it out to foul territory in a hurry, like he was chasing a foul ball, then had to backtrack. Not sure what he saw with the ball coming off the bat.

Just for sake of discussion, there was a foul ball by LSU later, that the announcer said "that's hit out in the parking lot"... the Kentucky outfielder kept running like he was going to make a play. It landed about 3 rows back. Things seemed to be drifting back towards the field over there. I know they said wind wasn't a factor, but that's at least 2 balls that seem to indicate otherwise.

Wind can be crazy. I get gas at a station in Central, there always seems to be a 10+ mph wind there, even when things are still everywhere else. I think it's the heat coming off the big parking lot across the street.
Is there something similar outside the Box?

The fact that there are posters actually defending what was being said last night says it all.

To be fair, if you weren’t there too… that ball was hit a mile in the air. Don’t know if it came off like that on TV. Like you were just saying, everybody struggled finding those high hit balls all night.

We saw it Friday with Kentucky and tenn dropping a couple of them too.

What exactly was wrong about it? He cost the game. True. He’s bad defensively. True. He did something utterly stupid on the bases (not his first time). True. Where’s the statement that hurts everyone’s feelings?

Whoever was sitting next to Jobert’s mom last night could not shut up and it got worse as the drinks flowed. Holy hell

I agree. People should be bashing Jay Johnson, he’s the one that the keeps sending him out there knowing all the above is true.

Pointing out mistakes or shortcomings is fine. Calling players trash not. I don’t think it needs to be simplified any more than that. If you were one of those calling players trash, you are part of the problem.

He was horrible last night. At the end of the day it’s a harmless adjective said by an emotional fan. The response to it has been weird though. Jobert is 22 years old. There are younger professional athletes who get far more and far worse criticism and from the same posters who are defending him. He’s not some fragile 10 year old being told he should quit sports.

Why is it fine for Johnson than it was for CPM?

This board has always failed to criticize constructively. It’s just a byproduct of anonymous posting.
