re: Why is Media So Insistent That USC Won 2003 Championship
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 7/28/23 at 3:20 pm
Whether you think the media gives LSU credit for the 2003 championship or not (I personally think LSU gets ample credit for it) the media has already implicitly given LSU credit for '03 post 2020. After Bama won the irrelevant Covid ship, there was tons of talk in the media about how significant it ...
re: Tre Morgan got the wrong sign and ran the wrong coverage on the bunt out at home
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 7/5/23 at 3:04 pm
Plenty to unpack here, so I'll go point by point[quote]It is an actual play, because it happens plenty of times. When you have a situation where you have to cut down the runner at the plate in the late innings, everyone has to be ready to move around, and that includes the pitcher covering third[/qu...

[quote]In the exact situation that you're so worried about, where a runner goes all the way from first to third, because the ss is covering second, the pitcher has the responsibility, and plenty of time, to cover third base.[/quote] my point to you is that this isn’t an actual play. It is a baseball...

[quote]As I just said to another person, the pitcher is free at that point to cover third base[/quote] the fact that you made comment gives me a lot of peace of mind. There is no situation in baseball where the pitcher covers 3rd on a bunt play. I can now truly rest assured that you have no idea wha...

[quote]And on a bunt play where the corners are crashing, the second baseman will run to first and the shortstop covers second. [/quote] That leaves no one at 3rd which is just not acceptable in a normal play call. I agree that the goal is to prevent runs from scoring, but your play should also not ...
The Death of Stalin
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 7/5/23 at 7:46 am
Saw this movie for the first time streaming on Tubi, and I was impressed. While it's a comedy, a lot of the ways the film gets laughs is by highlighting the absurdity of the actual events in the aftermath of Stalin's death. It's a great watch for those that enjoy movies about the cold war...

[quote]not having the corners crashing would have been gross negligence, in my opinion.[/quote]The first and third basemen both crash only when the bases are unoccupied with runners. When runners are on the corners, third base is typically the only one that crashes while the pitcher covers the first...
re: Trump haters and dislikers, what Trump policies do you not like?
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 6/22/23 at 2:14 pm
[quote]Don and Ron can battle it out now, and in the general election their votes should theoretically be identical no matter which gets in.[/quote]Not true. While the votes they garner among republicans may be identical, you better believe that the turnout against Trump from independents and democr...
re: Will Wade receives a 2 year show cause for his NCAA violations while at LSU
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 6/22/23 at 1:49 pm
What's funny is the IARP did NOT find credible evidence of cash payments to prospective players or families. They also said that Wade's show cause is not totally restrictive but is limited to 10 games. Basically, there was no severe penalty issued due to lack of clear proof of wrongdoing. Glad all y...
No credible evidence

Per Michael Cauble:
IARP rep says they investigated accusations in Yahoo article
And they DID NOT find credible evidence of cash payments to prospective player or family.
Did find that a permissible offer to coach of perspective player
This is why you probably shouldn't tank your program...
re: Kirk Saarloos
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 6/21/23 at 3:22 pm
If you think Jay Johnson is "just standing there observing," you should probably pay closer attention to what he does throughout a game. There's a reason coaches that are worth their salt are trying to get that headset off as quickly as possible...
re: Kirk Saarloos
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 6/21/23 at 3:07 pm
He seems like a decent enough guy, but he's also way too comfortable talking to the broadcast booth during games. The last thing I'd want is my team up to bat while the head coach is shooting the breeze with Chris Burke and Ben McDonald...

What is the argument for Trump?
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 5/31/23 at 2:25 pm
He was drubbed in the last election by a senile man who barely campaigned. Save your "rigged election" excuse making for some other loser. Not even Trump truly believes the game is rigged/unwinnable. If he did, he wouldn't be playing again. Even in Trump's winning year, he didn't capture the popular...
re: If you could change/add one to thing to The Box what would it be?
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 4/12/23 at 12:41 pm
I will never understand the fan obsession with adding berm/levee seating to the stadium. Having fans sit or stand on a grass hill in a pivotal conference or postseason game seems silly to me...

He wants to play. He understands how important it is to play. He's healthy enough to play. He just can't play. Makes sense...
re: Question about the strike called for time.
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 3/1/23 at 11:20 am
My understanding of the rule is that the clock is for both the pitcher and the hitter. The hitter has 10 seconds to get ready. If he's not in the box ready to hit by the time the clock hits the 10-second mark, a strike is called...
re: Thank you General Wade
Posted by Theodore Links Watch on 2/15/23 at 7:34 am
Your original post and your follow-up are saying two different things. We had the 17th ranked 247 class and the 11th ranked transfer class after CMM arrived. CMM has since taken this moderate amount of talent and has lost 13 straight games. Many of these losses haven't been particularly close contes...
