Soooooooo..... we played Stovall at SS

[Todd4State]

So next Saturday we could very well be without gridley and mangum. Really hope that isn't a rubber game

Shit like this always seems to happen when we play Alabama in baseball for some reason. It's kind of weird.

Yea because 1 game out of 12 & 1 game out of 50+ is exactly the same.

Big difference between 1 of 10 conference weekends and mid week games. It's the point of the issue. The effect is likely minimal. Doesn't make it right.

Ok 1 out of 12 vs 1 out of 30. Is it an inconvenience yes but the overreaction is laughable. He's missing 2% of the season. 3.3% of the conference schedule. It's not a major issue.

Your math is correct.

However, since we are pieced together with bubblegum and duct tape, there is a good chance we will end up needing every win we can get.

Need all of our bullets every SEC game.

It's an asshole thing to do for a buddy to schedule a wedding during football season on a home weekend, and I don't play football. It's even more of an asshole thing to do for a family member to schedule a wedding on a damn weekend that their brother plays an sec weekend series. I'm sure there is more to this but damn. That's just bad form. There are literally 30 or so Saturday's that could have been chosen instead.

Hell we give each other shit for having a baby during football season.

Per Paul: As you may have noticed, Gridley played second tonight and Stovall switched over to shortstop. They did that to give Stovall experience at shortstop because Gridley said he has to be in his sister's wedding in two weekends when MSU hosts Alabama at Dudy Noble Field.

Are. You. ****ing. Kidding.

Wow only MSU

[Forrest4Moore]

People are really going to be pissed if we make a Super Regional. Mangum is supposed to be a best man in a wedding that weekend. I somehow doubt he would miss a super regional game for it. But he is a groomsman for a wedding that is scheduled that weekend. How people don't look at calendars when scheduling these is beyond me.

Do people ever say- hey, sorry I really can't make it ever? I'm actually being serious because ever wedding I've ever been in everyone has to make it like they're going to get killed if they don't. I honestly don't remember anyone ever standing in for a wedding or anything like that as far as groomsmen go.

[AROB44]

Lol so the kid misses 1 game this season & the sister is pathetic? You guys should step back into reality & the real world sometimes.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Ifyouonlyknew again.

[lamont]

I would have told my sister good luck to you guys and been batting 3rd as usual that day. But I realize I'm not like most people

Oh no I would have said the same thing. You just dont do stuff like that at this level. This isnt tee ball

[civildawg]

Jesus you guys are crazy. There are some more important things in life than sports. It's one freaking game. If we win anyway, what does it matter?

[MafiaDawg]

That chick must be something else to schedule a wedding during baseball season. No one is saying baseball is the most important thing in the world but it still doesn't make it not ridiculous.

First off, I have no problem with gridley going to his sister's wedding. I can see why some are mad though... we're tied with a group of teams for 1st in the sec; one game can end up being a huge deal

[msstate7]

If she's not pregnant and trying to get married before she is showing, then it's more than a little shitty. How long is thconference schedule plus post season? She couldn't pick a weekend in the other three quarters of the year?

Haha... Johnson done started a small town scandal

[Political Hack]

Baseball schedules aren't realeased as early as football schedules. Hard to plan around that, but generally I agree about not scheduling major stuff during the season.

You aren't the only one. I left a wedding before "I do" to make kick off for the Peach Bowl against NC State. I was only going from Buckhead to the GA Dome, but I wasn't missing kickoff.

Yeah, so in theory this actually could have been worse. Assuming the wedding is in Georgia since Gridley is from there he could have had to gone to Georgia for a Saturday wedding and had to be back for a 1:00 Sunday game if it ended up being a F-S-S series. At least now it's the 3rd game.
I've seen a lot of sisters dragged all over the country to watch their brothers play baseball as kids - maybe this is one of them's way at getting back at them. Ha.

[Coackjek]

Everyone else seems to be making assumptions so I will as well. Does it suck? Yes. Does it make it right? Yes and no. But maybe she is marrying a military man and he's getting stationed our deployed at the end of the month. I've seen it happen a lot.

[louisvilledawg]

If true. That's unacceptable. Pretty pathetic by the sister as well.

Unacceptable and also pathetic by the sister? You need to take a few days off from elitedawgs and check back into reality my man. There are a lot more important things in life than one baseball game against alabama.

Good for Gridley. No way in hell i would miss my sister's wedding because of a regular season game.

This was one of the most ridiculous posts i've seen on this board. You're such a tool.
