re: The problem with the baseball team

As Smoke would have put it "our pitching isn't very good right now, our hitting is a little weak, our fielding could be better, and if could have scored more runs than out opponent we would have won the game!"

so basically you think, if coaching had made better decisions, we would have won some of those games? typical

The problem with LSU sports in general are idiots like you who start threads like this. Guess what? LSU is not capable of winning every game they play. If you can do a better job than Paul M. then get your stupid arse out there and coach the team. When I was a student at LSU, we were lucky to have 50 people show up. The guy just won a NC title last year. I hope that you're a kid and not a graduate of LSU. Kids like you are what give the real fans of LSU.

very long season...team always has hi's and lows. Hopefully they get hot again before too much damage is done. Pitching is a major concern right now though.

you don't just start playing alot in college

Without making excuses for them.... playing in college is alot different and a ton more demanding than playing summer ball, high school etc etc....
First and foremost you have school. Second playing 7 inning games in high school and (possibly) 9 innings during summer games is not comparible to playing 9 in college.... The mental demand alone will tire you out. I played in college and just to give you an idea of how crazy it could be some of us would lose 8-15lbs over the course of a season. After my frosh year i came back home and played summer ball with a tourney every weekend along with the normal weekday games and it was a relief. Oh and beer league/competitive softball doesn't count. Thats not in the same league.
