It's actually pretty entertaining. Mizzou hasn't had great teams but it has been kind of fun getting involved and following since the move to the SEC. I admit I blew off college baseball before our move but I have been slowly won over since then.

We love our baseball in Missouri but have, in general terms, not really given the college game a look. Hopefully more good Missouri folk will start to pay attention.

That's what happens when you move to a conference that actually cares about more than two sports.

shame it takes yall a 7-1 start for you to get interested. yall have had houck and that black pitcher (his name escapes me) the last few years and that gave you a chance to win 2 of 3 any given weekend.

I started getting more into last year. It helps being in the SEC as it's more popular in this league.

Still a distant 3rd though

Just saw this... I am with you.

The Rams leaving STL finished the NFL for me and
I am paying less and less attention to the Cards.

Football is boring, 1 - nil games do nothing for me.

Maybe I am just old.

Anyway, I am kind of getting into the college BB thing too. Tiger fan so here's hoping they are respectable. Liking the new coach so far.

Go Tigers!

if you are a fan of baseball, you should be a fan of college baseball. yes, it is different from the pro's but so is college football different from the NFL. aside from the metal bats, it is almost identical and very fun to watch. baseball is baseball. I like every level of the game. I once watched young girls play cabbage ball in New Orleans and loved the game. those girls could play.

if you have played baseball at least at the high school level, you can greatly admire players' skills and you also know what's actually going on out there. I call that the "hidden game"; the part of the game non-players don't know exist; the signs by the offense and defense, the pitching change decisions, etc, etc. great stuff.

welcome to a great sport.
