re: Updated D-1 Baseball Projections

[quote]4. McNeese[/quote] Why are they penciling McNeese in? They aren't the highest seed left. Seems odd. ETA: as much as I like BA's projection, being paired with the Aggie regional means LSU has a good chance to get to Omaha. Already beat them and Texas this year....
[quote]A lot. If we advance as a 3 seed and the opposing national seed loses to the 2, it would probably go to that 2 seed[/quote] This has been proven false multiple times. Seeding of the two teams advancing, if they are not the national seeds, is irrelevant. The NCAA decides the host by bid pro...
[quote]Sad ending for the school but it should make for a decent inspirational Disney sports movie in 10-15 years.[/quote] The difference is, Disney will tell you that them winning after the school shutdown motivated the administration to reopen. "They saved the school"...
[quote]Gotcha. Sounds more like a milling bottleneck than a growing/climate bottleneck, then.[/quote] That's not the case. There's new acres getting put into cane every year. It's literally a climate and soils issue. Sugarcane is a tropical crop. South American farmers can get multiple harves...
[quote]Barbe sucks[/quote] Well I guess everyone else is straight garbage then since Barbe was the 1 Seed. :rotflmao: Haters gonna hate....

[quote]Been using it a while, and have only seen two true mistakes. I love that app.[/quote] Alot better than I've seen. I've had it provide multiple IDs in one recording that I knew were incorrect, and it constantly IDs songs as being one species when it's actually a mockingbird. Had it identify...

[quote]The sound id feature is real cool.[/quote] And also proven to not be accurate all the time. I've had it identify birds that have never even been recorded in LA....
Hmmm, thar makes me want to pull my pawpaw's out and check it, because it kicks like a mule. Beautiful gun. Never hunt with it anymore, but not really for any specific reason. 1958 light 12. Also have my GGF's 1927 Model 12 20 gauge. Would be alot prettier if the butt hadn't been sawn off y...
[quote]“The stripes were the only thing they can hold us on,” he said.[/quote] I would have kept the stripes and said frick em. Since when can someone own the rights to a stripe combination?! It's a different shade of blue according to UH--there's no ownership right to a red-blue-red stripe. N...
[quote]The only downside is they migrate at the first sign of a cold front[/quote] Where are you located? Because I see literally thousands in the dead of "winter" on Lacassine NWR. I've never seen black bellies migrate....
[quote]They are the new mallard. Enjoy the new normal.[/quote] How did we go from something so smart and regal to something so stupid and trashy? :lol: I don't know if I've ever seen a bird as dumb as a whistler....

[quote]Bad for faucets and such, but great for plants.[/quote] Except the ones you have...:lol:...
Could be alot of things. If the water being used to irrigate the beds is high in calcium, that can raise the pH. The previous owner may have limed pretty heavily. It could even be that the soils have a naturally higher pH. Regardless, Azaleas and camelias are not going to be very happy in ...
What kind of shrubs? Because a pH that high could be a problem for Azaleas, hydrangeas, and camelias....
[quote]water oak are [b]prone[/b] to rot[/quote] That's putting it nicely...:lol: I've never seen a water oak that didn't rot from the center eventually--that's why the damn things have that name. I can't stand water oaks. Not good for anything except harboring caterpillars, birds, and squir...
[quote]i would think you would still want to add Nitrogen fertilizer unless that was high also[/quote] That's not even possible unless he had it planted with a legume. Nitrogen is the most ephemeral macronutrient that is applied to soil. Anyone telling you they are getting an accurate soil nitr...
Probably nothing to worry about. Metallic Wood boring beetles are fairly common. Most bore into dead wood, and the few that do bore into and feed on live wood usually aren't going to kill the tree. Of course there are invasive species like the emerald ash borer that are a serious problem, and may...
[quote]Houston Astros .263[/quote] This is infuriating. Best Team BA in the AL...with the second worst record in the AL. Astros keeping some impressive company in the standings considering the worst and 3rd worst records in the AL belong to the worst hitting teams in the AL in Chicago and Oak...
