I remember we had an athlete that played in a baseball game and then in a spring football game the same day.

For some reason the guy doing the infield watering is trying to grow trout out there. He overwaters and the infield is full of mud. If I was an infielder I would be bitching about it. Johnson must think that gives us some advantage for him to allow it.

We choked on free throws.....especially at the end of the game.

I took my grandson......we only could make it for 4 innings. I hope the opener is not the usual 50 degrees with winds out of the north.

Coach Johnson stated Thursday at the Coaches Committee meeting tonight.

Nobody saying its ok to keep bumping the game back hours is not sitting out in the hot sun and waiting for updates.....which never come. Everyone has weather radar on their phones these days and can see what the weather is really doing. This afternoon there was no rain anywhere around BR or moving in our direction. The sun was shining brightly when the last announcement came at 5:30 that the game was delayed again.....and I would say to a lot of booing. Most folks leaving said that they were not going back.....we are not.

BTW.....
In the NCAA baseball regionals, the decision to start a game is primarily made by the NCAA Regional Tournament Director in consultation with the umpire crew chief, the host institution’s athletics administration, and sometimes the NCAA game management committee.

Makes you feel old.....we lived across the street from him in Deer Park when his son was born. We gave them a Cajun blanket for the baby.....Andy was born in BR.....dont think his wife appreciated it.

I was there as a member of the Coaches Committee ground crew. I remember Koerner made the third out....I thought he had also made the first out We were in the ground crew pen waiting to go work the field after the game ended.....and it went on and on. I had a friend that worked with me at Dow that was a GT grad, and he was sitting in the seats behind home plate. I ragged him after about the 10th run. Most enjoyable game I ever saw, and we made it to 5 CWS wins.

Chris lives in Houston and works for Shell. He grew up down the street from our house. Unfortunately the home was destroyed in a fire a year ago....was rebuilt and parents are in the process of moving back in. Chris is one of the nicest players we ever met. He came home for Christmas a year ago and saw our grandson practicing in the front yard and he walked over to throw batting practice for an hour. He has a great family.....wife and young son who hopefully grows up as nice as he is.
