Valid, but the way I interpret what CGC has said (I could be wrong), the rules are the guidelines that let the players know how you earn playing time. If everyone is following the rules, then performance is the metric that the coaches are using. CGC publicly stated that his decision was...

Agree. To me this was a slam dunk hire. You can go to the minors and get coached by someone like DBo, but he is going to have way more pitchers to focus on and you could get lost in the crowd. If you come to Tech, you get the same proven MLB level pitching development on a daily basis without...

Completely agree. Worst case is he ends up similar to Jeff Francoeur. Serviceable MLB player that's great for clubhouse chemistry.

In that example, the new guy is getting a promotion purely because of culture and being a "yes man" and not performance. If the top salesman is actually out performing the new kid, he should the job. CGC has specifically said that King out preformed Wells in practice to earn the right to kick...

Do we really expect the kicker position to be an exemption from his rules? “How you do anything, is how you do everything” “Competition is king” “Practice how you play” “Culture built on effort” That would be extremely hypocritical and would destroy any credit or trust CGC has with his players...

He post the YouTube link here but the copyright claim is from the ACCN on YouTube. So the video is taken off YouTube and the link won’t work here. Edit: He just uploaded to YouTube again and linked in the other thread. It could still get copyright claimed as well.

I completely agree that comparing the two with in game stats and saying Wells has preformed better in game is accurate. I wasn’t referring to those comments. It was only a few comments and while I think those comments did throw King under the bus, I don’t think they were intentional after...

They decided to schedule a non-conference series because they weren’t playing each other frequently enough as rotating cross division opponents. So while they are obviously both in the ACC, the game is outside the eight scheduled conference games for each team.

Yeah there is plenty going to the coach, but people actually said that King had no business kicking field goals, that it is impossible that he out kicked Wells in practice, and that he sucks. Some of the same people that attacked others for "throwing players under the bus" are doing it...

SEC: It Just Means More (Arrests)

So many people on here that got mad about people "throwing players under the bus" and they are just straight pooping on King. (y)

I agree with you. You can love something and still want it to be better. Die hard fans like those of us on this forum are gonna go to BDS no matter what, but things like incredibly long concession times, impossibly small gaps between rows, and no relief from the heat aren't going to convince non...

Sucks Acuña didn’t get the chance to steal his two times on first. Needs 2 HRs and 6 SBs for 40-40. 17 games to get it done. Diamondbacks and Phillies both lose tonight but the Brewers are cruising 8-3 against the Marlins, so the Braves magic number for playoffs will only go down to five...

I'm all for celebrating the Phillies and Mets eliminations! Only the Marlins are eliminated currently. Magic number for Mets NL East elimination is 4.

Buzz was correct on the numbers. 11 for the east outright, 6 for the second wildcard outright. Magic numbers are always for outright.

The Braves only have 18 games remaining. So going 6-12 (95-67) would only clinch the 2nd WC because if the Cubs 20-0 (96-66) and Nationals 20-0 (99-63) win every game from here on, they would pass the Braves. However Arizona(94-68)/Philadelphia (94-68)/Milwaukee(94-68) could win every game and...

I put the wrong number for the Cubs loses. They have 66 loses. 163 - 89 - 66 = 8.

The Braves playoff magic number actually won't change unless the Braves win or Arizona, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia all lose because they all have 68 losses right now. So if Arizona were to lose tonight but the Phillies and Brewers both win, the magic number would still be 6 because the Phillies...

The Braves magic number for the playoff is 6. This is calculated by taking 163 - 89 (Braves wins) - 68 (Arizona loses) = 6. Doing the magic number using the Cubs is 163 - 89 - 68 (Cub loses) = 8. The Cubs ending up with a better record than the Braves doesn't matter because a playoff team...

One minor thing on the magic number for playoffs. It's Braves wins, Diamondback losses because they are third place team (right now) in the WC race. When you are calculating what the Braves need to do to make the playoffs, you are looking at the closest team on the outside that would replace the...
