    We are not allowing cowbells at our own regional. SINCE WHEN?????????????????

    The regional is technically an NCAA event so no walk-up music, no rally possum stuff, etc.

    Little League Sportsmanship: Adults (Long)

    You handled it right. Baseball's (especially coach pitch) just the worst in terms of how a coach can influence who wins so it puts pressure on a coach (like you) to be aggressive. Baseball is so hard to play that being aggressive on the base paths completely turns the game. It puts pressure on...

    OT: I need a good quality cordless drill.

    Get this Dewalt, holds a charge for ever. I use my drill maybe 4 times a year and I charge it almost never. http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DC970K-2-18-Volt-Compact-Driver/dp/B002RLR0EY/ref=sr_1_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1463693013&sr=1-3&keywords=dewalt

    Question for college baseball fans...

    Everyone seems to lack pitching depth to some degree, which I blame on parity. No one in the 2015 CWS had single digit losses. LSU had the fewest at 10. LSU had 9 losses before SEC tourney last year and we were essentially #1 from mid-April through our flame out in the CWS against TCU. TCU may...

    Alex Box info

    Stubhub is the reseller of people's tickets. No, visitor on 3rd base side. Bleachers assigned. SRO is in the concourse behind the grandstand. No grass. No chairs. No coolers, backpacks, food or any of that stuff allowed in. Last year's fan guide with all that info...

    Mullen's Boston Marathon Comments. Am I missing something?

    Mullen's right. I've run a marathon as have thousands of people. So what. However, only a relatively few people on planet earth earn seven figures to coach "kids" in one of the most pressure packed sports on the planet AND, in my opinion, one of the few sports where what a coach does or does...

    Which freshman is being wasted more by their team? Malik Newman or Ben Simmons?

    I assume you mean, "Which school has failed to take advantage of their star player's alleged talents?" Simmons no question. He only considered LSU because of the family connection. He wasn't going any where else. He knew he wasn't going to win a title but at least expect to go to the tourney...

    Fournette - should he play or sit out?...

    You're right, D linemen don't get hurt. But this conversation started because everyone said Clowney should have sat. Nkemdiche should sit. As should Tunsil and Treadwell, they're guaranteed 1st rounders. After what Kelly's put up in the first 4 games, he should consider it too. I have no idea...

    Fournette - should he play or sit out?...

    Nkemdiche should sit now. He's already a top 2 pick.

    State falls on the liberal side of the ledger. Interesting article.

    I still think there's a talent divide but match ups can minimize the divide. Under Les, we've historically been a pro style O with a spread stopping D. Example was 2011. We demolished spreads like Oregon and WVA but our only loss came against Bama who ran over us, not around us.

    Top 100 Baseball Programs per D1Baseball.com

    It's right now, not all time or even last 10 years. See, Vandy and Virginia at the top and Stanford, USC, etc. way down the list. They have Florida ahead of just about everyone and they've only finished 2 twice but been to the CWS in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2015.

    PSA: Fear the Walking Dead premieres Sunday night at 8pm...preceded by a

    Got to think that Cliff Curtis (English teacher / boyfriend-hopes to be stepdad) is the protagonist. Good actor who I think deserves a big role. Maybe some back story on him we find out later? Her kids are either strung out or still in the shower when it's time for school. His kid's doing his...
