It's going to be sad. One of the best baseball series of the season and barely a word will be spoken about it, because of idiot trolls like Crow pie and Drewbie as well as others.

If pointing out a staggering statistic is a flame then I'm sorry.

Not worth it, most likely will come down because it quickly turns into a dick measuring contest.

It's a legitimate statistic that shows how misleading the ERA stat that yall hang your hat on is


Not a flame. Grow some thicker skin. There's no crying in baseball

1.59 ERA.

#1 in the nation.


Best pitching rotation in college baseball.

All of these are facts as well.

They have committed 52 errors in 32 games. Tough to get charged with an earned run when the other eight players forget to bring their gloves.


You do realize that errors are charged on plays that should have been made, don't you? Probably not. If the play is made, the run doesn’t score anyway so the ERA calculation remains the same. Duhhhh!

They only want facts that support their side of the argument.

Will y'all have a new defense next weekend? Unearned runs score the same as earned ones on the scoreboard, so y'alls ERA is not as big of an advantage as it appears to be

Go ahead and give LSU 3-4 runs off of errors this weekend. Y'all act like LSU isn't a top 7-8 ERA team or some shite.

I imagine the defense will be the same and without question, all runs count regardless of how they were scored. Did I claim anything different? My response was to the ignorant post made by a stupid dip-shite trying to minimize the Hog’s ERA. Does that explain my post clearly enough?

We do that and we won't like the results. I just explained how ERA's are calculated to the ignorant original poster because he apparently doesn’t know the difference between an ERA and the EPA. However, if you want to defend his post go ahead. You will look just as uninformed and stupid as he did.

There seems to be a weird protection for Arkansas right now


Actually there's not. Ice was kind enough to explain the new policies, why some things are done, what is kosher, what's not, what admins respond to and take action on and generally how to behave in the future.

We all basically agreed to tone it down for the better of the board, and now it's it a non stop flame Arky for not flaming fest.



We'd much rather have a nice civil board where fans can come together and actually discuss what's going on, a little ribbing is good but it's been way too negative and nasty. Many of the better posters have left. It takes the efforts of all of us to have a fun board and not a shitfest.
