Further proves how shitty of a product college baseball is overall.


College Baseball hasn't been as affected by the chalk bug that is plaguing the NCAA basketball tournament right now with NIL. Feels like almost more upsets than ever now. I guess it depends on what you think a shitty product is, but I prefer this.

So fans of Vanderbilt and LSU, who didn’t make a regional, are laughing at a team for losing in a regional.


Correct. 2 programs that have actual hardware returning the ribbing they've received for months now from loser programs. Who would have thought.

You just getting your thoughts out there before the inevitable 25 threads created about ATM?

Outside of the Shadow of Mordor games, I feel like LOTR is a franchise that suffers from great ideas for video games that end up being just pure garbage in practice.


The Two Towers game on PS2, which also covered Fellowship, was an awesome game. The Return of the King followup was really good too. Some of the last good movie games I remember playing.
I am not a destiny 2 player but have a question. Is this one of those games that people have spent thousands of dollars on? I remember reading something a few years ago that said it would cost thousands of dollars to unlock all destiny 2 content or something like that. I don't remember if that included micro transactions and guns or just actual content.

If so, it's wild to see that just kind of coming to an end. We pay for many things in life that are not permanent, but something like this can hit different and make you feel like a fool.

Complete collapse on the mound. I'd be a little surprised if both the eligible staff and Yeskie returned.


If I had it my way, I would like to see Jay part ways with everyone and do an entirely new coaching staff. I want to see some energy and fresh ideas injected into this thing.

If we lost to Little Rock last year there is no doubt that would have happened.
LSU baseball sucked this season and I'm sad that it's over.

But on the bright side, now it's time for my second favorite sport - watching which regular season SEC juggernauts don't even get out of regional weekend :lol:
I think it's as simple as the team lacked leadership. I don't really see Milam as a leader. He certainly leads by example but he's not a vocal leader. Curiel you can kind of see some leadership qualities in him, but I can also see some of the guys kind of tuning him out as well.

The team got hit in the mouth in a midweek game early on by a far inferior team and they just never recovered. They followed that up with even more weak losses to bad teams and a series loss. They didn't have the "short memory" that everyone talks about with sports. They had an opportunity to turn things around after that incredible game against Tennessee but they followed that up by getting swept three SEC series in a row.

That's what teams with poor leadership do. It was also obvious that there were some transfers who were more or less guaranteed playing time. Eventually and after far too long, they were so bad that they were finally yanked off the field.

If anyone can correct it it's Jay Johnson, but there is no doubt that he felt like he was coaching a bunch of grown children this year.

Ridiculously smart baseball player
Ok, the ball/strike replay system is no longer gay.
This system is frickin gay
Jay Johnson may be a boom or bust coach. He had some down years between world series appearances at Arizona too. It's actually a pretty common trait among innovators.

Consistency is important too and I think he'll learn a lot about talent evaluation from this season.
I think this is a tactic to get under Brian Kelly's skin and smear his image, play on his arrogance and push him to get another coaching job so you can stop paying him. Pretty smart.

Not with how hard he works. He's an absolute grinder. It just didn't work out this year.
My neighborhood is almost completely dark except street lights tonight. It seems like people got the memo

But this pitching staff ain't getting us out of a regional.


JJ teams always improve their pitching in the post season. I would love for a chance to at least get in and see what they can do. Anyone who doesn't is insane.

Him being the first openly gay active player in NBA history is pretty incredible, and important. We may not see another again for a while, but to be the first anything...man on the moon...maker of croissants...I don't give a frick...it's impressive and takes a lot of courage. A lot of people hate change, and to risk a VERY lucrative career to stay true to yourself is amazing.


It shouldn't even be talked about or glorified. It's a sexual preference.

I like the pro controller for switch 2. Very lightweight and the charge lasts a long arse time. Nintendo has great battery technology
