  1. she's pretty good. the Logo 3 thing is funny though. if the whole court is a logo is every 3 a "logo 3"?
  2. scheffler probably should be at +2, couldn't make anything. I think he has a shot if the lead ends up at -1
  3. the NCAA is toothless so we just need to play the game as if there are no rules. which there aren't. we'd be stupid not to. the only possible downside to breaking any rules is not being permitted to play in the tournament. If they did that to Tech, after spending all the money, schools might think twice. barring that, who cares about a "reduction" in scholarships or anything of the sort. essentially, scholarships don't really exist anymore.
  4. I love Jordan but he's done for now. maybe something will change and he will have a resurgence in his late 30's. It used to be fun watching him but currently it is just frustrating.
  5. totally agree Tech is all in in softball because it is cheap, relatively, and is 5th in the pecking order for college sports nationally. Canady is probably a once in a 10-15 year type player that could basically guarantee you a trip to WCWS in a weaker conf. maybe there will be more girls at 6 foot that chose softball over basketball or volleyball in the future so what she does isn't so rare. do agree that playing in SEC would probably raise her ERA. I am glad we caught her in the WCWS final vs the Super. maybe the same outcome but she wouldn't be as worn down.
  6. He's a good coach but we will see how good when Canady leaves. It does appear Tech is all in on softball. we will see how he manages egos and locker room now.
  7. playoff hockey is the absolute best...
  8. looks like the goalie switch worked. we'll see how long it lasts.
  9. well 16,2,16 is a lot better than 1,2,1
  10. so the most interesting thing on this is reading ESPN article says 4th time since US Open has been keeping records since 1983. 1983? how the fuck could they not have records of scores on a hole before that?
  11. yeah, I finally found the list. I thought for sure Carlton would be one. the other 3 were kind of fliers(McDowell #10 and Lolich #18). guess it is pretty hard to get 10 K's in a game. both Johnson and Koufax hand 10 K's in 30%+ of their career starts. that is nuts.
  12. koufax has to be one.
  13. as guesses - Carlton, Sabathia, maybe Lolich and McDowell?
  14. It is amazing Brooks is 98 years old. This will probably be meh but holy shit is there a lot of potential considering the amount of Star Wars stuff that has come out since he made it. Skewering The Last Jedi alone could be a whole movie by itself.
  15. yes. they can tell all these transfers they were one game away, here's money and come play for a championship. it would still be a similar situation for Tech once Canady is gone but White still needed that championship pretty badly, given that Tech went all in. He made it happen and hopefully it pays off big for him and us.
  16. they've only got one more shot.
  17. this has to be top 10
  18. dcar00

    RIP Brian Wilson

    yes RIP Mozart.
  19. hmmm. so the loyalty points thing is new this year? could be an Arch Manning effect a bit. I bet it goes back down some after he graduates and those folks can't remember the QB's last name. secondary market will be interdasting...If OU really sucks at football those tickets could get cheap.
  20. I'm neutral...
  21. admit I don't watch much USMNT except for the bigger tournaments but holy shit 4-0 to the swiss in 30 minutes? these guys must suck ass.
  22. This is a good point. Girls start sports similar to boys in the "is everyone having fun" stage but at some point it switches for boys for a dominance hierarchy, which is in the male DNA IMO.(and yes dads are a big part of that). the "is everyone having fun stage" seems to continue to be ingrained for girls no matter how old. I think some of this is trying to keep girls interested in staying in the game because many who probably could have been damn good athletes start to wander as the parents don't hound them like they would a boy. I think that is why you see a bigger drop off in women's college sports after the top 10 teams in a sport. The difference between the #1 player and the #200 player is massive. again IMO. I'm not saying girls need to be coddled/make it about fun, it is just the way it happens to work out, given our history.
  23. I was shocked the way they went after Tkachuk. one guy holding him a good while and another guy throwing haymakers at him. Even for hockey that is way over the line. I hope FLA is beating their ass in the cup clinching game and they decide to go full Slap Shot on EDM in the 3rd period. Someone needs to "Goodnight" Nurse with a flying forearm to the head.
