I get that but.....

I was sitting in 107 on the front row. Shaddy called it before he got to first base. Cole and Gates backed off, Shaddy's mistake on fielding.

Still enjoyed the series.
See ya'll in OmaHog in 2020

I was in section 117 row 29 ---- right beneath the underhang and off the bat I expected it to go foul. The ball had a weird curve and looked like it would end up around 5 rows deep. Then I saw the three converge and reailzed it was playable.

blame Shaddy, blame Gates, blame Cole, blame Cronin, blame anyone you want but I believe in baseball jinxes...... we lost that game b/c the outlandish number of people who couldn't name more than 4 people in our starting lineup who all had their phones out ready to get selfies when that ball popped up. Baseball gods hate fairweathers and bandwagon fans. They hate fans "who do it for the gram" and dumb arse fans who show up just to play on their phones ---- this is why people get beaned in the heads at the game.

This is also why any team who showcases their football/basketball coach and-or celebrity fan in the crowd for an appearance gets eliminated - Pearl and Gus caused the meltdown by Auburn. Beard caused the loss for Tech. Bielema caused the 0-2 in 2015. Mike Anderson's loser butt caused the loss last CWS. Bobby Bones caused it this year.

IF you don't pay attention to the team until June then don't pay attention at all b/c you are a CURSE.

I'll give Dale credit for that - he might hate the Razorbacks but at least he does it all season long.
