What is there to understand? You’re literally just relaxing. The only difference between doing so on a sofa, or hammock in the woods, or sitting on a mountain looking out, is that you are doing it on a beach. It’s not my favorite thing to do. But I understand it....

What a blown inning. Two get on to start and the heart of the order (if this team has such a thing) collapses ...

So basically your argument is TRant crowdsourcing opinion vs. actual data. Last year on May 4th Alabama was 30-15 (9-12) This year on May 3rd LSU was 29-17 (7-14) Alabama went 7-2 in their final three SEC series over top 25 Vanderbilt, bubble team A&M, and bottom dweller Ole Miss to finish ...
No, not far-fetched. Unlikely, but not out of the realm of possibility. Just look at 2023 Alabama for reference. Like LSU, Alabama didn't do a lot until the last few weeks of the season. They couldn't win a series against any good SEC teams. Lost 2/3 to Florida, Kentucky, Arkansas. Swept by ...

re: 5-1 over the next two weekends?

Posted by Alt26 on 5/10/24 at 1:24 pm
[quote]They’re 1-7 on Sundays.[/quote] And the average margin of defeat in those 7 losses is (nearly) 7 runs per game. LSU has lost by 10 runs on Sunday 4 times this season. Including last weekend. While nothing is impossible, every ounce of data says a sweep, either this weekend or next, i...
[quote] For the life of me I'll never understand why mere existence of the league makes people mad[/quote] The existence of it doesn't make anyone mad. What annoys people is the insistence of the media that the demand for the league is far greater than what it actually is and the implication t...

re: LSU Nike Pegasus 40 running shoes sale

Posted by Alt26 on 5/10/24 at 12:13 pm
I'm not big on "team shoes" and I certainly wouldn't buy them on my own. But, my kids gave me these for my birthday last year. Quietly, I thought "WTF? I don't want these. I'll never wear them." But I have to say, they are the most comfortable shoes I have. ...
I don't know if there is a hard and fast rule, but I do know that generally the managers give the lineups to the media (TV/Radio) at least 90 minutes before the first pitch as a courtesy so the announcers can prepare and the crew can prepare graphics, info, etc. Hell, you saw last year Alabama di...
[quote]Politics equals: I was told one thing in recruitment, I got there and wasn’t as good, so things changed. Best are gonna play.[/quote] True. But I can see how 17, 18, 19 year olds sometimes feel "betrayed" after going through the recruiting process. For 2, 3, (maybe more) years you h...
[quote]If they allow schools to directly compensate players then yes they can cap[/quote] Highly unlikely unless those terms are collectively bargained for. The NFL has a salary cap ONLY because the players and owners agreed to those terms. MLB doesn't because the players' union won't agree to ...

re: Ole miss just lost to Murray St

Posted by Alt26 on 5/9/24 at 1:33 pm
[quote] And yes, you want ole miss to lose because they are on the bubble looking in just like LSU.[/quote] They are behind LSU on the bubble. Them falling further behind doesn't help LSU. Particularly when they are staring down a series vs. A&M and game at Southern Miss. The biggest negat...
[quote]I'm sorry but this is the absolute stupidest talking point in the entire universe (made even dumber by the fact that you spelled morale incorrectly). Did it ruin locker-room morale when we brought in jayden daniels and meckhi wingo and miles frazier (etc) in 2022? Did it ruin locker-room...
[quote]He shouldn't put too much effort into it. Committee isn't giving a Southland team an at large bid[/quote] It's unlikely. Though I wouldn't say impossible. McNeese finished the season with a 56 NET ranking (it was higher at the time of the selection in March). You had teams like A&M, Was...
