  1. I don't have a problem with killing coral snakes. My father has generally been a let all snakes go person, but when he lived in S. Texas he said he killed almost 20 coral snakes. It's just too dangerous to have them around the house when you're doing yard work and have animals. Plus, they mostly eat lizards and small snakes that help control the insect population so they don't provide much value. My dad also knows someone that got bit by one after putting potted plants in the car. That's certainly not good.
  2. I don't think that's fair to Sark at all. What fat has he cut? The only ones told to leave were dismissed for violating team rules like Cook. As JS said this, "I think the lack of overall portal success outside of the Oregon 4, Joley, Mac, Czech and Dolcini speaks to Mike's belief that the majority of his roster needs to be primarily recruited to Texas and developed by Texas." Sark has said many times that has been and is his strategy at Texas and he only uses the portal to fill holes. There have been some that have left on their own only because they didn't want to wait their turn. And good riddance to those who think they should start without earning it. Tech softball has 44% of their roster in the portal. That includes 6 of the 7 Freshmen. Glasco promised them they would be the future of TT softball and now he has recruited over them and said get lost. When has Sark ever even had 10% of his roster in the portal? There's a vast difference between telling a player, "we don't think you have the talent to be a starter", vs "get lost, we got someone better from the portal".
  3. Yeah, damn for sure. He was a musical genius.
  4. Grasso & Glasso want to buy a NC. The hell with you players we started recruiting 4-5 years ago. If we find someone better than you, get the hell out of here. A billion dollars can buy better players than Texas, but I think it's somewhat unethical. I hope it eventually catches up with them.
  5. I think you're right, but I never can remember his roommates name. Something like Dunkin I think. I don't know why Donuts always come to mind. But reality is for every Colt McCoy there's 10 Mark Buchanan's. And the other reality is club softball kinda washes out the unknows because the best players all play together regardless of where they played in HS. Teagan didn't even play HS ball. I think Wells will do fine.
  6. Maybe Texas won't be so failed in the future. Dems are turning things around and Soros has the money to do it. George Soros group is funneling millions into this big red state in hopes of turning it blue | The Independent
  7. She had some injury issues last year and I expected her to be better this year. Hopefully next year is even better.
  8. You add in the number of errors and unearned runs given up it's even more insane. I doubt if another team has ever given up as many errors and unearned runs in the WCWS at all, much less giving up so many and still winning it all.
  9. Ou is about the only program that can do some unethical things and it never having a negative impact. But the programs trying to do the right thing need to make HS recruits well aware of who is selling them ocean front property in AZ. Tech is now taking it to a whole new level. MW only brought in Bennett for depth and publicly stated he would not go after Canady. Tech thought they could buy a NC and failed. Nothing is better than seeing the sad faces on their players and fans. Just hope the honest coaches are doing a very good job of pointing out the dishonest.
  10. So what are they going to tell all the transfers and Freshmen they brought in last year waiting their turn? It seems like the Freshmen will eventually will realize if you go to Tech, you're going to get recruited over and go elsewhere.
  11. It's a damn good thing Mac didn't pile on the dogpile. Otherwise Texas would be starting from scratch next year.
  12. Canady won't be tired tonight. She won't even be pitching tonight if the weather forecast is close to accurate. She'll be getting a rest up for tomorrow.
  13. Last night is the perfect example of why MW will always be a bridesmaid. The 1 person in the lineup with an effort issue and has no chance of getting a hit he not only leaves in but moves her up in the lineup. At least KC got a sac fly. He also has Joley bunt. And the pitching decisions. WTF? He only puts Mac in for 2 innings but leaves a Freshman whose never been in that situation in for 3? I don’t blame Salmon because MW shouldn’t have put her in that situation. If he puts Teagan in the start the 5th Texas is probably celebrating a NC. MW will blow it again 2nite. He’ll probably move Hunter up to lead off and leave KC on the bench. I wouldn’t even be surprised if he puts in Sophia and lets her walk in a couple of runs. Really disgusting we’ll have to watch tech celebrate a NC tonight Texas could have won with good coaching decisions. Now Texas is frazzled and error prone and tech has all the momentum. The only way MW will ever win a NC is with a true difference maker at P. Cat has used all her eligibility and Texas isn’t getting in a bidding war to get Canady. I really appreciate this team for their hard work, effort and never give up attitude. They deserved better. Except for 1 player.
  14. That's a pretty shitty goal if you ask me. My opinion is your goal should be to win however possible. You never know what can happen in one of these games. Just ask agroid.
  15. She's been doing the same thing all season. What makes you think all of the sudden she's going to change? You would think by now she would know to wait another 1/10 sec before she swings.
