  1. After watching the slide a few more times, he’s just trying to get around the glove rather than sliding directly into it, so it’s definitely not intentional or dirty. 

    I’ll have my formal apology submitted by morning.

    Could have Jonah did a better job of controlling his foot?  Maybe.  Could the fielder do a better job?  Maybe.  Could the throw have been better?  Maybe.  If this is the biggest bitch, we as TEXAS BB fans have right now, then we are in good shape.  You need a little controversy in your life, well here it is.  Oregon got robbed (IMO), but rules are rules.

    Oregon Robbed Of Crucial Run By Awful Ejection For Big Collision

    Can’t be there without the ball, but it was completely unnecessary to slide so late you’re essentially standing up. It’s Utah valley for fucks sake so I refuse to feel bad for Oregon.

    That was a terrible slide.  The truth is had he been kicked out it was earned, intentional or not.

    Why exactly do we need spikes?

    Plastic cleats on this sort of turf is simply awful. It’s incredibly slippery and a bigger safety concern than getting spiked.

    On his initial slide his foot hits the ground in front of the base and pops up. Looked unintentional to me 


    I would love to be wrong and will choose to accept this and move on.

    Why the fuck is that even a thing?

    Because imagine if a game in this tournament didn’t include the hosting team OR if this same format of tournament was played at a neutral site. The rules of the tournament attempt to make it fair with respect to getting to bat last.

    I don't get this commentary. From what I saw Jonah was a total star today and routinely displayed shit that you can't gameplan for. He's a complete menace on the base paths. 

    I'm not sure if you start him going forward but you have to at least pinch-run or sub in this kid going forward. 

    He's so. Fucking. Sick. 

    Anyone with a brain can see how special this kid is. 


    Jonah being a really good player that’s fun to watch and a particular slide being dirty are 2 different things.

    Nothing about that play was dirty. Jonah ran straight through that fucking bitch. 

     

     

    Maybe he’s an uncoordinated slider and it was an accident, but he spiked a dude so hard in the chest he had to leave the game lol

    I think Schloss saw it as a big early moment in the game and really wanted the out, so he went with the right-handed pitcher against their righty batter. Simple as that.

    Really reinforces how little he cared about the SEC tournament lol

    Google searches, the Texas Baseball site, TV and several other online sources are helpful places to gather such information . . . dickheads not so much.  


    yeah but it makes sense to get your show times from your primary source of protein

  9. Walker and Hudson emerging after throwing damn near no innings this season.

    I didn’t understand why we took out walker when we did unless we were just unwilling to let him give up a 0-0 lead. Their contact against him was absolutely pathetic and they had no business having 2 runners on with 2 outs. 

    Later, on 2nd base, Jonah was either attempting to relay signs to Galvan at the plate or just faking it. His helmet grab signal didn’t appear to be consistently correct but he did it at least 3 times. Maybe being an asshole is part of Jonah’s game. 

    Who did Max’s liner into our dugout hit?

    Jonah’s slide into 2nd was so shitty and unnecessary. If you can eject a baserunner, he should’ve been ejected. He rolled his body to slide high. Its hard to recall a dirtier slide as a Texas fan. 

    The team not signaling Mendoza to slide into the plate was really frustrating. Clutch moment in the game, completely blown.

    We weren’t doing the little things right. Can’t play like this moving forward. 

    Saunier does all you can ask, and he’s removed with 2 runner on also, at like 55 pitches, as if that’s the automatic pitching change rule.

    Thankfully Hudson was nails, setting us up for the weekend.

    You guys act like a #4 has never won anything before. 

    Fresno State won the National Title as a #4 in 2008 remember.

    Granted I don't think Houston Christian is a Fresno State.

    Fresno is a 4 seed again 😬

    I imagine we start Riojas. He needs a confidence boost. Probably limit his innings if we build a big lead early. Save Harrison for Game 2 (K State). 

    Maybe. I think he’d be successful against any of these teams so I’d have to map out 4 games. I think I’d be trying to save him though.

    We are currently dealing w a case of elder abuse. My wife’s father lived on an amazing island on Pugent Sound and recently passed away. His cousin lived next door and was ‘helping’ him w his life, while cleaning out his bank accounts. We uncovered the scam in Jan and have cut off all her access, documented all the withdrawals and are filing charges. She was even withdrawing money after he died. Turns out there were three reports filed of her elder abuse and now we are dealing w the fallout. It sucks. 

    Is this made-up AI slop like most of your posts?

    we lost because we gave the green light to 15 batters in a row who could not see a 58mph breaking ball

    it was infuriating

    You wanted them taking until they had a strike or..? 

  15. Great game between Texas and Tennessee.  I would’ve pulled walker after 2 innings. Or 3 innings max. The 4th inning was a lucky bonus. Stahp! You had to have a 1 base runner limit going into that 5th. Let the guy end with a 1-run taste in his mouth what the fuck!

    Side note - at what point do you think we will get another SEC channel that focuses on the Western side of the SEC - OU / Texas / Arkansas / LSU / aggy / Missouri - w/out the Longhorn Network we are missing so many games we use to be able to watch.. 

     

    Probably never. I’m sure they love how many of us are paying for ESPN+ to watch SEC+
