Lol, well tbh, I'm not sure if it was just anger I felt, but it was definitely something; perhaps a "oh, shit, here we go...we're cursed" type of feeling.

I definitely felt like we were cursed.. that was my feeling.. was never mad at Riley

I actually feel glad for Skelton. He had a rough, rough game, but all is well after the big 11th.

Never back a bulldog into a corner.

Always wear all black to a funeral (rip Vandy)

Every dawg has his day but yet to be determined how many days a dawg can have.

See y'all in Omaha

He has to improve his game in the offseason though.

He just needs to catch the damn ball and stop throwing it into outer space when they try to steal. We can live with a weak hitting catcher. We can't survive with one that has 30 dropped catches a game.

He's horrid at framing the pitch, though....no telling how many strike calls that costs us, let alone strike outs.

Gotta learn to catch it before you can learn to frame it. Does he catch with his eyes closed? I know I am being rough here but I seriously haven't seen a catcher drop so many pitches since 12 year old little league ball. He must of been super nervous tonight.

That's about like saying all our QB has to do is learn how to throw the ball to our guys and learn how to run the ball.

Well that shouldn't be difficult as anything will be an improvement

Amazes me how many balls Skelton doesn't even attempt to catch when no one is on base. I bet at least a dozen or so balls hit the backstop last night w/o anyone on base. Bad habit and just lazy!

I stopped watching after 10 innings last night, recorded the remainder, and watched it this morning. I couldn't believe the rally, although we never should have gone to extra innings. Great game by the tenacious Dogs though. Looks like we'll play Washington first, and they've never been there before.

And 78 pages on a single game post must be a record.
