    … just be grateful we didn’t play Coastal Carolina.

    Kentucky thinks Costal Carloina's effort to be hit by pitches is adorable.

    Well, they got a fucking shit-ton more than ‘we’ do in baseball. No one gives a fuck about last century, LSU is the premier baseball school. 

    Yup

    Damn that sucks... when Canyon Lake levels are up it's a blast.

    • How many ramps are open on Canyon Lake now due to low water levels??
    • What's your favorite restaurant and bar hangouts around Canyon Lake?

    Sattler has a handful of good restaurants.  Elio's is one (Italian).  Startzville has one good Italian joint called Gennaro's that people drive from SA, NB, and San Marcos to dine at.  If you're looking for a bar scene that's going to be Gruene.  Lots of stuff over there.  It has gotten beyond touristy, however.

    All public ramps have been closed on canyon lake since November 

     

    was out there for Memorial Day and just eerie how empty the lake was 

    The big marina over near Hancock still has their ramp working, but you have to be a member (rent a slip) to use it.    Luckily, or maybe unluckily, I have one.  The only boats you see out there now are from the marinas and the yacht club.  On a "busy" weekend at any given time there are probably no more than 10 to 20 boats out on the entire lake.  You still see PWCs because there's a guy who keeps a bunch on the lake 24/7 and rents them out.  Calls himself the "Jet Ski Dude"

    He must have some compromising polaroids of the Corps of Engineers because they don't approve anything except more outflows of water to the next subdivision.

    The drought is a problem, but those jack holes are the real issue at CL.  They don't give a flying fuck.

    unfortunately the lakes to be on for "that life" are really LBJ and Austin, Austin isn't a lake it's stupid (but nice, close to town, and expensive), but LBJ, pretty much what those of us who live on flood prevention reservoirs really want.

    Definitely, but something about 6 inch visibility hot tub water contained in a propeller eating, shallow low spot in the HC just doesn't appeal to The Dude.  I did the Lake ATX bit for a half decade and that was fun, but cruising around in a phone booth with 100 other wake boats wore a bit thin in the end.  Man I hope CL comes back some day before I'm too old.  Such a beautiful body of water when it's there.  You jump in and you don't feel like you need a shower afterwards.  Being able to see the bottom at 25 feet is pretty damned nice bonus too.

    Still, the ground is primed and ready for mass runoff.  If we DO get a major hit, it'll be glorious.  

    This is the hope that keeps me going.  I moved here in '21 specifically for the lake and that "life".  The graph has been at a downward slope almost to the day I moved in.  That flood we got last year put about 3 months of water back in CL, but that was all.  We're gonna need a couple of BIG ones stalled over Kerrville/Comfort/Sisterdale to really get this thing back to a level where I don't want to sell the boat.

    that was basically the game.  our 2nd worst hitter, probably 7-3 with Flores on 3rd and no one out.  In the stadium, as I watched it I said he's fucking going to run that down. he actually didn't really have to dive.  he caught it while he was running and dove just to help him stop.  

    Beast of a play and was absolutely the dagger to our hearts.  That ended it.

    Gasparino has a longer swing than the Conquistador at Six Flags.  

    I was actually relieved to see Farmer PH for him yesterday.

    Yep.  It’s embarrassing to watch and it appears that no one is working on it with him.  
     

    Every swing he makes he’s just hoping to make contact.  You can tell he doesn’t expect to.
