  1. What I didn't see was batters changing their approach as the at bat and the game went along.  When you get behind in the count and have two strikes, shorten your approach.  When you are behind four runs, forget about yakking the long ball and get on base.  Big innings come from guys getting themselves on base and being clutch at clutch moments.

    If anyone is interested in buying a few more and selling them at facevalue, I'll buy them lol. Also are we expecting college gameday at this game? I looked at the schedule and I didn't see many better match ups to go to.

    How often does ESPN do College Gameday at games that are being broadcast on FOX?

    I mean, if you are giving me even odds I'd bet my house against any school you want to name that they won't win the NCAA tournament in the next 5 years.  It's really fucking hard to win the NCAA tournament.

    Tennessee has now guaranteed themselves 5 more years of not winning an NCAA Title! Will Vegas take that bet, because I would bet literally my entire house on that. 🤣

     

    KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee has rewarded men's basketball coach Rick Barnes for winning the Volunteers' first SEC tournament championship in 43 years with a contract extension through the 2026-27 season.

    Based simply on the fact that they have never won one, they are due in the next five years, right?

  5. It's like the boxer who fakes a time out to get his opponent to drop his guard and then sucker punches him.  Yes, it is legal and yes, his opponent was told to protect himself at all times, but he was taking advantage of his opponents good sportsmanship with his poor sportsmanship.

    This is not like Steve Young pump faking a pass while he was twenty yards downfield.  That was taking advantage of his opponents instincts to jump to block a pass.  Faking a slide is taking advantage of your opponents sportsmanship (sportsmanship that is mandated by rule for player protection) and will result in officiating changes or defenders being more aggressive during quarterback slides.

    You keep saying this like it automatically disproves my point (and like I haven’t read it multiple times). I know he said that. Even if he DIDN’T say that, it’s clear it was intentional.

    But is faking a slide “obviously beginning” one? That’s what’s in question. I don’t see any reason to necessarily interpret the rule that way.

    How do you fake without using the beginning motions of the thing you are faking?

    colt's pass hit the rail in front of the first row of stands behind the corn bench 7 tenths of a second after the clock was at 00:00:02

    there was 1.3 seconds on the clock when the ball hit rail

    the ball crossed the sideline with more than 2 seconds on the clock

    What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen sparrow?

    We didn't lose to that team of 2-stars last weekend because half of our 4-stars transferred out.

    I'm more than happy to lay some of the blame at Herman's feet for not being able to keep or develop the talent he brought in.  But that damn sure doesn't explain all of it.  We were pretty good for 5.5 4.5 games and we've gotten progressively worse over the last 4.5 games.  And I'm not at all sure that our injury problems are any worse than anyone else's in the middle of a season.

    So what other possible explanation could there be that maybe CDC wouldn't want to talk about?

     

    I went ahead and fixed that for you.  There wasn't anything other than a fecal storm in the Arkansas game.  Other than that, spot on.  Of all the Big 12 program rebuilds in the last 14 years, this one is the only one that incorporated losing at home to Kansas.

    So he is saying a dumpster fire is actually the best way to clean a dumpster?  I am not sure losing to Kansas was in the dumpster cleaning guide book. Also, fuck Herbie and tOSU, they see any other blue blood failing as a plus.

     Sad that it has not been mentioned that the pole spins, I figured someone besides Al knew this.  Stripper facts. 

     

    Thank you.  I feel like I have watched an episode of Magic Secrets Revealed or whatever that show was.  I will view things differently from this point forward.  I guess it really is "all ball bearings these days."

    A service animal is legally protected by law while "emotional support animal" is a name people use to confuse others that have a real support animal. For the lack of a better analogy its similar to fake service members claiming actual military experience/valor when they do not in fact have it.   Its as you say, the situation often is a weak human and their pet that they want or dependent upon being with them everywhere.    Basically, you could put a squirrel on a leash and call it your emotional support whatever.  People will feel sorry for you because obviously your regarded.

    Does everything have to involve aggie?
