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.

We were 9-2 last year to start as well....Reggie McClain is the name you were looking for as well there.

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

You know which stadium I'm talking about. The one that makes ours look like AT&T Park.

Suntrust Park,


Let's play a game in it first eh?

quote:

PNC Park, AT&T Park


Both great American ballparks. Have never been to AT&T but PNC is incredible, I agree.

quote:

renovated Wrigley Field

Outside the nostalgia/history its a dump.


quote:

Citi Field, Yankee Stadium


I have never been to either. I agree that they are nice in general, though.

So you named a park that hasn't hosted a game yet and 5 others as an argument that Busch and Kauffman are not a couple of the best parks in baseball? I didnt say the they were the two best man.

College baseball is awesome actually. So happy my mom got season tickets around '88. I love it.

Got in my first ever fight around then at the game. Told some dude frick off and tripped him while running the bases during a makeshift game behind the bleachers.

Dude must have been 6 years older than me and probably 80lbs on me.

He got up after I tripped him and knocked the shite out of me.....mad respect

Sports goes in cycles and baseball is making a slight comeback. The steroid era really dampered the game but i'm noticing in little league the numbers are slowly climbing each year.

The best baseball stadium was Joe Robbie.

It's a shame you Floridians don't support MLB. Should give one of your franchises to the much more deserving Carolina's. That's a market that should have been served before Tampa and Miami.
