NO no gone
Based on what I've seen of Preston Brown this year he is at least our 3rd best starter. If somebody else doesn't step up soon he should be given a shot as the SEC Sunday starter. He locates his pitches VERY well and location is the biggest factor in pitching.
The baseball savvy is overflowing up in here**
I say give him a shot next weekend and see what happens on Sunday.
We needed the infinite wisdom of engee. Thanks
You probably don't even know what you did do you?Quote:

He def deserves a shot at a weekend spot. He has earned it. Hudson nor woody has. I'd have Bracewell, Fitts, and Brown as my weekend rotation. he is Graveman 2.0 Constant groundball guy that keeps pitches low and can go deep into games.
LOL. What's scary is we are supposed to have some of the smarter baseball fans out there.Quote:

Guess you should blame ellis and Gregory, they both said no hitter and they were at the game.
Since baseball players are notoriously superstitious, does that mean that baseball fans have to be as well?
Silly me. I figure what someone says on the internet has no effect on the baseball game.
It doesn't, but the two self proclaimed baseball experts on here know it all. We should blame all the Twitter people who tweeted it out.
Yet you notice none of the normal baseball posters here went "there" even though everyone knew it was ongoing and only an inning or so away from becoming a legitimate possibility. Hell, they didn't even go there on the Pack.Quote:

It's the press's job to report those things. Not their job to be MSU fans and worry about "spoiling" a No-No...Quote:

I saw a five year old ruin his coaches no hitter last weekend. pretty cool.

why is it that any time anyone disagrees with you, you react in a condescending and hypersensitive manner as if you are baseball royalty and everyone else is beneath you? you obviously know a great deal about college baseball. why not let your knowledge do the talking instead of being drawn in to these little spats over who all is a dumbass, whether you respond to certain folks' comments, ignore lists, etc. I'm sure bully99 does not care one bit whether you respond to his posts or ignore him. you are above this tomfoolery, right?Quote:

Go thru some of the posts -- and the reasons he's not due any respect from me becomes blatantly obvious. And he cares so little that he responded back -- even after knowing he was blocked -- and makes it a point to derail basically every baseball thread that comes up. He does nothing but troll the site -- either intentionally or unintentionally -- and is not due my respect.Quote:

How about contributing something yourself -- instead of obsessing over what I contribute?
What is the matter with you? Why would you do that?
Oh, I knew you directed the "ignore list" statement to Bully99. I was just being optimistic and hoping I would get on your ignore list.Quote:

Well no shit it's gone because you announce it to everyone. Anyone with a clue about baseball knows you don't mention it or it gets broken up. Proves you've never been in a dugout, maybe a parents dugout club, but not a dugout during a game. Dumbass.Quote:

Of course it's stupid. No one actually thinks (I hope) that it jinxes the pitcher. The superstitions are a fun/quirky part of baseball that I enjoy. Bashing people that do the jinx is fun as well.Quote:

No.Quote:

It's not savvy. It's fun for people to participate in. But not caring to participate in it is an indicator of not wanting to participate in it, not that people are idiots.Quote:
