Their board is about 50% people who have enjoyed the hell out of LSU fan interactions and 50% who saw a drunken middle aged LSU fan kick Mother Theresa in Atlanta in 2010. ...

[quote]It depends on the situation. LSU really needed baserunners at the time.[/quote] Tommy hits a HR in approximately 10% of his ABs over his career. Letting him swing when he wants is a good call, he just made a poor individual decision there. This probably gets into the discussion about b...
[quote]This speculative decision is purely on the coaching. They either give him the green light and deal with the risk/reward result or they take matters into their own hands and have him take 3-0. A hitter is going to react to the best of his ability at the given moment. It’s horrific times and he...
[quote]He does not. If he does, he needs a new coach. [/quote] He’s #8 in the history of college baseball in career HRs in only 3 years. If anyone has a green light to swing whenever they want, it’s Tommy Tanks. Don’t overreact. ...

[quote]Has to be impossible logically but before the regionals were announced, a lot of the analysts had something to say about how talented they were and argued they were one of the strongest 4s if not the strongest overall.

[quote]Put the drink down[/quote] You still think Doug called it? ETA: :lol: I now realize you meant Doug called Milam to end it in one swing, not that he called the actual home run call on the radio. My bad. :cheers:...

[quote]Some of you clearly haven’t watched most of the games this season. Milazzo should start over Neal 100 out of 100 times. I’m not even going to waste my time explaining why.[/quote] I did it for you. We all love to see a Neal left handed HR of course, but he’s objectively worse against g...

Milazzo hasn’t had a hit in his last 10 ABs yet still has more hits in his last 7 games than Neal has in SEC play. Milazzo is 8/31 since Ole Miss (all SEC or Wofford games), while Neal is 6/42 in SEC play. Milazzo also has 4 walks over that 7 game stretch. He’s objectively a better hitte...

re: How the hell is AZ a national seed

Pretty straightforward argument even if it’s BS. They won the PAC 12 regular season and tournament. The committee wanted to make Oregon State a host given their RPI. They couldn’t do so without squeezing the conference tournament and season winner in too. Hence OSU #15 and Arizona #13....

[quote]It really was awesome everyone was joining in with him way more than at the box it was badass[/quote] 99/100 when LSU is on the road in the post season we’re dominating the opposing fans.

I appreciate someone being the person, but the idea it has to be Guillot all the time is mostly his fault. Who is he training to fill his spot down the road? What’s the succession plan?...

I’m not complaining in the sense that I hate ESPN or something. It’s like the people that bitch about Masters coverage on Thursday when 20 years ago Thursday wasn’t even an option on TV. ETA- the scoreboard at the bottom of the Base Loaded feed has also been woeful. I watched Nicholls lose, ...

This will be pretty commonplace in the next 2-3 years. I think most of the Raymond James, LPL, Edward Jones, etc of the world will have this service very soon. The market is basically dictating it. I’m in the industry so I stay up to date on this kind of stuff. The much maligned on the Money Tal...
