  1. Opening Weeknd - UIC/Richmond/WVU

    Don't know for sure, but did read that somewhere at sometime. Or maybe that was a goal of his going forward. Either way you made me go look at his Bio on the Mercer page which didn't help me answer that ?, but did show he was a fine student while here. https://mercerbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=6630
  2. Opening Weeknd - UIC/Richmond/WVU

    Grad transfer to Mercer. In Med. school I think. I have a granddaughter that started Med school there this year. May ride down to see her when we play in Macon later this year. PS. Yes we're very proud of her!!!
  3. Opening Weeknd - UIC/Richmond/WVU

    Hope for more, expected less. Not as good a weekend as I would hope for, but not as bad as it came close to being, and not as sad as I've come to expect. Don't know where this should go, or if anyone even cares, but Kel Johnson hit 2 HRS for the bears this weekend. Wish that young man a lot of...
  4. Ugly Loss to UGA, How Many ACC wins this year

    Didn't say he was a great player overall, just IMO the best player on the floor today. Put that kid on our team, and off theirs today, and I like our chances of changing the outcome. Of course he might not play the same if he was on our team, but that's a whole different thing than what I was...
  5. Ugly Loss to UGA, How Many ACC wins this year

    They put the best player on the floor today, and he was a huge difference maker. I swear it seemed he played every Pos. on the floor at times. I'm not sure, but at times it seemed he was running the point for them. Remember seeing that kid last year and thinking he sure is tall, and...
  6. Calvin Tosses a Jab(?) at CPJ ???

    Well, in my youth we called it yanking your chain. I think the youth of today call it TIC, or something like that. It's a play off the players that turn us down these days, and then we have fans who will decide they don't fit our system. Or you know the players can't do math deal. The ? to...
  7. Calvin Tosses a Jab(?) at CPJ ???

    At my age I should not be up drinking beer, and watching baseball this late at night. I also should not have been reading this as I was draining that last beer of the night. But at least my nose got a good rinsing, but darn I was going to put that shirt back on in the morning. Oh well, I've got...
  8. Calvin Tosses a Jab(?) at CPJ ???

    How good a blocker was Calvin Johnson? May be that he wouldn't block well enough to play for us now anyway! Different skill set needed now than when he was here. Maybe he wouldn't want us now, but on the other hand we maybe wouldn't want him. WR's with his skill set mostly don't like to block...
  9. UVa Series

    Memory fails me more and more often these days as age keeps creeping on, but there was a pitcher for the Phil. team many years ago that once won the Cy Young Award while pitching for a team that only won like 65 games, or something like that. May have been the one of the worst MLB teams ever...
  10. UVa Series

    UF beat uga by scoring 2 runs in the bottom of the 9th. Makes me smile. We can still have a winning season, if we don't flat out quit!! Just need to find a way to put a couple in the left hand side to meet my expectations. Hope left the building a while ago!!
  11. Wake Forest

    Time to head to the ballgame!!! Nearly messed up, and left the broom at home!!
  12. 2018 ACC Baseball

    I know this may make me the worst kind of fan ...... IF we had missed the ACC Tour. last season we would not have had a losing season for the first time in near 40 years. Back to back losing seasons would have been unthinkable just a short while ago. While I don't think it's probable, it is...
  13. Miami

    Off to see mickey in the AM with the grandkids on their spring break trip!! Won't get the chance to help pull the team up this weekend. Trusting you all to do the heavy lifting. I highly dislike the team we're playing this weekend!!!!! I expect 2 of 3 plus a big win against the puppies by the...

    Vandy also has a need based endowment that allows them to give what amounts to a full ride. Works really well for them in the sports that operate with partials.
  15. @NC State

    What really hurts about this weekend is not that we lost 2 of 3 to a top 10 team, but the way we lost!! W hen you have a chance to take 2 of 3, or even sweep a top 10 team on the road you must be GOOD!!!! Now I watched none of the games live, and followed on GT so I can only speak on what I've...
  16. @NC State

    KSU played in a super in 2014, not the CWS. Even so, point made is much the same......
  17. @NC State

    Really hope the team can bounce back from this. Hope this team can finish with an overall winning record after last years first losing record in ages. Back to back losing seasons would be like pouring salt in an open wound of hope. Losing high expectations is one thing, losing hope is an...
  18. 1000 wins for Coach Hall at Tech

    Congrats to CDH. Hope he adds about 200 more to that over the next four years, and retires with the program kicking ***.
  19. Clemson

    I was really hoping the 3rd game would not be played. Then I think what kind of fan am I to have such little faith in our team.................... Oh well, while I may have high hopes, expectations are much smaller. Just wish they would surprise me more often. Hey, maybe we start a big run...

    Are batters no longer taught to hit behind the runner on base, or is it just a skill that is no longer needed?
