  1. All of us can agree that losing Vivi left a huge whole in this team’s offense and defense that we were not prepared  to fill. To me though the crucial fault of this team has been the pitching staff.  The longer the season progressed the mediocre pitching  staff was exposed. White seemed to be sold that TK was a program solid #1.  The reality is that we currently do not have a solid #1 or #2 pitcher.  TK is and could be an efficient #2.  We currently do not have a #1 season strong pitcher on this staff.  We will continue be a better than mediocre team but not elite team until we can acquire an elite #1 pitcher.  In today’s softball universe that quality pitcher is pretty rare and they can be demanding.  If we want elite pitching we are going to have to pay for it.  If we refuse or can’t bring the cash we will remain mediocre.

    1. My main argument is this—how am I supposed to believe this is a religion that shares all of these stories and fables yet the church is one of the most hateful groups I’ve ever seen?
    2. And isn’t judgment of others itself a sin?
    3. And I thought there were no degrees of sin, so why does 1 sin outweigh another?  
    4. Doesn’t your hated of a certain group of people constitute sin and you should be judged as well?

     No one can answer these for me so I I haven’t been back.

    I can’t answer them for you and I am not trying to.  Maybe you and I do share some thoughts.

    1. There are certainly wicked people in church, but also very good people (like your mom and dad and my mom and dad).

    2. Yes, according to the teaching of Jesus and others.

    3. I think we agree again. Sin is sin. And, don’t forget real grace, not the grace for me but no grace for you crowd.

    4. Hatred is bad in any context I believe.

     

  3. I don’t understand why Richard Pitino isn’t getting any attention this year at all. I’ve watched how he has recruited and what he has done with New Mexico. He can flat out coach. He has taken a bottom dweller program and put them in the dance the last two years…goodbye Shaka.  I’m not saying we should even consider him at Texas, but he should start being on some short lists for schools looking for a team builder.

    Looking at the stats, South Caroline didn’t beat us so much as we beat ourselves with poor shooting. 28% from the floor ain’t gonna get it done. Vic needs to play Preston more. I know Maddie is a warrior, but everyone has days where things don’t go right. This was one of those days for her. 

    Teams who can and have depth have learned to knock her around.

    For those that called me out a couple of years ago when bitching about Kiatkowski............. thank you.  If our defense was just good, we may have a couple of more losses.  He has saved the season thus far.

    Nanson  has really helped
