Well - here we go, 3-3, bottom of the 9th.  Does State walk-it-off, or do we go to extras?

Man, that pitching change was the right man at the right time.  

Thoughts on the pants ABOVE the knees?  I like just below the knee with stirrups, all the way down - not tweeners and definitely not above the knee.  

The only sport (along with softball) that I root for UT is baseball.  Let’s go ‘Horns!!!!

The news report said that they quickly noticed the slide was locked back and it was that fact why they didn’t protect themselves and the surrounding public.

Man - that is a bitter pill to take and will not soon be forgotten.  They already screw baseball with the scholarship restrictions so I guess this shouldn’t surprise us.

Cue HD-55 in 3,2,1……….

Man to advance to the semi’s, have it to a “winner take all” game and then have that once in a lifetime opportunity taken away is simply amazing.  That is just unforgivable.  If Vandy wins put an asterisk by it.

Vandy wins over NCState 3-1, to force a winner take all for their half of the bracket.  

ESPN saying Friday morning at 0900.  I guess I’ll have to find somewhere at work for a few hours.

Vandy with an exciting 9th inning come-back win to send Stanford home.  That was a fun game to watch.

Oh, and ol’ TR starred in the hit-movie “Night at the Museum.”

Thought this was interesting, as he was one of my favorite presidents to read about, Teddy Roosevelt.  Here’s a man that created the national park system, was a war hero, Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, chief of police in New York, governor of New York and they are removing his statue.  What a country.

What would some menu items be at a woke restaurant?

LGT-BB-Q?

Congrats to a great man and a great friend.  May you enjoy retirement and enjoy watching those grand babies grow up.  

Instead of going into differing forum threads, say HS Track and Field, you can hit “Mark Forum Read” without actually going into each different entry. I don’t know that I’m explaining it right.

If you have a “T” on your hat and Orange on your jersey you seemingly left your bats at home.

Chad pitched well, but the Vols take the loss.  I think they had 2 on with no outs at least 2-3 times without getting a run in.  You’ll never win a game where you score 0.

This may ramble even more, so bear with me.  As humans we have mental human limitations (at least I do).  I can’t imagine a universe with no end.  In my mind, there should be a border, a drop off, a wall - something.  Can’t even begin to imagine what would be on the other side of that - something.  That mental limitation prevents us from understanding God’s love for us, until something happens to enlighten us somewhat.  I use to ask myself, how could God continue to love us when we’re constantly ignoring him and being.....well, bad.   Then I got enlightened.  Prior to going in Marines, our Grandson worked at Tractor Supply.  One day he heard a noise from a pallet full of feed stacked 4 to a layer with a hole in the middle.  At the bottom of that hole was a kitten about a month old, skinny & full of fleas.  He got her out & brought her home & him & his Dad bathed her and de-fleaed her.  He couldn’t keep her in his apartment so she ended up with me & my wife.  Took her to the Vet when a little older for shots and neutered.  We hadn’t had pets in forever.  Didn’t really want one, but inevitably we fell in love with “Maise”.  Now some of you have never had cats.  They’re to heck & gone from dogs, who (for the most part) are loving & obedient.  Cats think they run things.  Rarely display affection, and ignore commands.  Point is, we still love her - despite the ignoring & lack of affection from her, yep, we still love her.  I guess that’s the way God loves us, even when we ignore him, and ignore his Commandments.

I hope his post hasn’t offended anyone.  It could be construed as being sacrilegious I guess, but certainly not my intention.  I do find it amazing that I can learn something about (from?) God from a durn cat,  I guess there’s a little bit of God all around us if we just look for him.

My dad told me before he passed, “Do I love you when you’ve disobeyed me or disappointed me - Yes!!!  God is a Father and He wants your love but understands you’ll fail Him.”  Great post Hagar!!

8 pitch inning to start the game, pitching out of a lead-off hit.  Great start.

Let’s go Cheddar - and the Vols!!!

Vandy with the win 7-6 in the 12th.  Why do you have the infield in, when a double play gets you out of the inning?  Pitcher rolls a perfect DP ball to shortstop, he did his job.  Not a fan of any west coast teams, but they should still be playing.

Into the 11th we go, all tied at 6.    Az and Vandy have played a great game.  Wish Texas and Tennessee weren’t in the same side of the bracket.

Where is the “Mark Forum Read” button at?  I know you used to could mark individual threads or all of it as read, but I can’t find it anymore.  My OCD kicks in when I see something lit up.

Game ended on an obstruction play - double play at second.  NC State wins game 1 by a score of 12-4.
