Settled with money the city does not have. Firefighters deserve the money, but Turner was a horrible financial mayor as was his predecessor. He left Whitmire a horrible situation. Will either need a federal bail out (not appropriate ever for any city or municipality) or cut at least 5% from almost all areas of spending (something Whitmire has proposed). As someone who works in the city, I pray it improves, but have little hope for it.

@AggiesAreWe, you are good. Don't fall for it Spidey. You keep up the positive remarks. 5 for 5, baby!

@AggiesAreWe @bullets13 and@BEARCPA are throwing out the bait. Don't take it Uncle Spidey, stay positive!!

Uncle Spidey with 4 consecutive positive posts on LU baseball. You ole softy, you!

LU takes midweek game 7-2 over SFA. Noon game today as it was rescheduled from last night. Southeastern at home this weekend.

Jacob Ellis earns D1Baseball's pitcher of the week for the nation. Ellis threw 9 innings of no hit ball on Saturday against McNeese. He is 5-0 on the season and allowing opponents a .183 average.

LSU has fallen to 3-9 in conference. The Tigers have time to get back on track. However, if their struggles continue, this will be the 3rd year in a row that the defending CWS champion out of the SEC falls apart. Baseball...????

Take 2 out of 3 with a walk off winner. Old man says it's one of the better series he has seen at the Beck. 5-1 in conference.

You fecal matter stirrer. 😀 Uncle Spidey was positive last time he posted in this thread. You are going to mess up all our progress.

Birds with the no hitter win. Just screamed yes in the Madisonville Bucees men's room. Strange looks received and deserved.

Cards drop opening game of series to Cowboys 4-2.

Fully understand. It will likely take a win total that is well above 40 to secure a bid without a conference tournament title giving the automatic. How much above 40????

Birds flying high. Move to 23-5 on the season with 11-3 win. Strong pitching performance. Also, 14 hits with 8 extras base hits including a triple and 3 round trippers. McNeese this weekend at home.

Birds and Kats in a midweek contest shortly. SLC has on occasion sent 2 teams to the NCAA tourney. Long odds with the conference's present strength. However, IF LU can sustain this run, for the first time in years, midweek games may actually matter. EARLY to project such, but keep winning and.. ...

Well played.

Some polls not posted yet, but K-State at 23 in the Collegiate Baseball Writer's Poll may be the only ranking for a Big 12 team this week. Amazing may be on overused term, but when you consider the money, facilities, , name brands, etc...this is amazing.

Would love to see that too. HOWEVER, not only mighty early, the strength of schedule (SOS) will hurt tremendously. Latest RPI (Boyd's World as the NCAA utilized is not updated yet to my knowledge) has LU at 41 with a SOS of 240. The SOS won't raise much or any for the remainder of the season. SLC opponents are scattered from 120 to 230 range, thus no real bump and few strong mid week teams left. Also have TSU that is very low and Alcorn with the lowest RPI (305) in the nation. A 3 seed, as a 2 seed is essentially the same for tournament design purposes, would be great. Have to agree with my Uncle Spidey on that one.

May God have mercy on your soul.

He is Risen, Alleluia!

Birds sweep!! 6-3 win in the finale. Has LU ever swept a series against a ranked opponent?

Approximately 10 minutes until game time. A sweep would be outstanding. Tough task, but lace em up and play ball!

You 2 can tickle each other all you like. 😝 I'm just here for the baseball.

Negative? He's just pessimistic, gloomy, and cynical. That's all. Give em hell Uncle Spidey. I hope even Spidersal can laugh at this one. When Lamar is able to get out of a bad situation or gets a big hit, my father and I will often look at each other and say, "take that Spidersal" then laugh at own ignorance.

Uncle Spidey wants titles. He doesn't have time for our foolishness!

LU with a 13-8 win over OU. Go for the sweep of a ranked Big 12 team tomorrow!
