CWS Finals Game 2 Thread: State vs. Vandy

[Cowbell]

Bert is just what the team needed to get us a win tonight.

If we win tonight, I'm giving the credit to Bert. Big players show up in big time moments!

Comic relief does nothing to our team's pitching/hitting... or dumb coaching decisions for that matter.

You're always so negative

I've heard if he gets drafted he's gone.

He's gonna have to hope someone takes a flyer on him as a catcher imo. I don't think he's good enough as a hitter to be drafted as a 1b, and other than catcher, I don't see a spot

[Lord McBuckethead]

I kinda hope they're stupid and start Rocker tonight. It won't happen because he's on short rest, but if they pitched him and we some how won, we'd win tomorrow. It's like a band aid imo. Just rip it off now.

If we would have won yesterday, Rocker would have started tonight, but they have the advantage now. Except for the distinct possibility our hitting gets red hot over the next 18 innings. We are in there blind spot boys. As Jack Reacher says, "I am the one you didn't see coming, I (we are) am in your blind spot."

[Lord McBuckethead]

Thanks, Beardo!

To McBuckethead, your track record of 4 out of 5 was commendable. 🙂

Even me, doing everything in my power, wasn't enough to overcome 4 straight walks to open the 1st inning along with 3 hits and 7 runs. I mean, shit guys.... right.
I did everything I could.

I love Jack Reacher. I'm not much of a reader, but I read those books

My favorite line comes from the first Jack Reacher movie.
He is in the bar and the girl Sandy comes up to talk to him.
He says to her, that he is sorry, but he cannot afford her.
She is like, "I am not a Hooker."
He goes, "Well then I definitely cannot afford you. Women you pay for in advance is usually cheaper."

Dude comes up and is like, "Is this guy bothering you, Sandy?"
Sandy says, "He called me a whore."
Reacher says, "She said whore, I implied hooker."

Guy from the back, "Hey you cannot talk our sister that way!"
Reacher looks, "Is she a good kisser?"

Best line of the movie. Roll Tide.

Lol, indeed you did. Your efforts will echo through the Halls of Valhalla.

Looks like Harding. Should have been expected, Lemonis has bundled the pitching like hell the last 4 games.

The saddest thing is I don't get your "surely genius" reply... but that's on me. Sorry, should've added some <<>> & ****

When facts are negative... I guess. I also don't believe in karma or luck. Although, I don't watch many games b/c I think I'm a jinx. True story. (Eye rolling emoji)

No asterisk, therefore no sarcasm there, my friend. Apologies if it read that way. Also, not superstition either, really. Only saying I appreciate your efforts no matter the outcome.

And besides, when you picked up the ball and ran with it, I just knew we were in for the win. ...... so much for the Not Superstitious comment. 🙄

[RocketDawg]

Weather delay - not much on radar but the tarp is still out on the field.

Naw man, we are good. I seriously thought I was bringing the mojo. I do feel really calm tonight though. I was all covered in anxiety yesterday. If we have learned anything about this team, they fight. Even last night. Shut those asshats down, except the 1st inning.

Damn....it's such a shame you aren't our baseball coach. You are great as an armchair coach.

That's only because you are a veteran and used to losing. Same thing happened to me... it's not zen or some sorta foresight... it's just what we know. Unfortunately....

I don't see this getting started before 730 with the way those boundaries are popping off storms and they are just bounching around with little steering
