re: Has the Rant been overrun by Trolls or Morons?

I mean….the answer is both. BUT, let’s not pretend like the team doesn’t look like shite and there were some pretty questionable decisions lol. Fire Jay? Hell No! Does this team suck? Hell No! Did they look way over matched this weekend? Absolutely!
This 100%. This team is stacked full of of studs who will be unstoppable once they gel and get their feet underneath them. But yeah, until then there’ll be some difficult games to watch. Jay has no clue who he can trust yet. That was obvious this weekend. I’ll trust his process, though, since I certainly haven’t ever won a single game, much less the whole CWS.

Hell yeah!! I’ll be there tomorrow. Never miss the Tigers when they’re in/around Austin. Any sport.

Love this, OP. I was as pissed as anybody at his play but not at him. His first AB I got chills from the support everyone showed. He sucked a rock all tournament until his back was against the wall. He showed up in a big way last night. Props to the young man.

It’s early Sunday morning, we are 7-1 in our last 8 SEC games, we’ve been ranked #1 all year, and some of you are still melting over last night’s game. I love seeing the passion from some of you folks, but geezus, how about a little perspective! It’s sports, shite happens from time to time.
re: Pass interference but flag was picked up?

This is a good justification for picking up the flag; however, the problem is when the ball is uncatchable there is a specific signal when they pick-up the flag. I have never seen an official (guess it could happen) rule a ball was uncatchable without stating that and waiving their hands over their head.
This. Anytime a flag is picked up it is supposed to be explained over the microphone in order to avoid this exact thing. The ref did not give the hand signal and wave over his head, and no audible explanation was given for why the flag was picked up. Protocols were not followed and Birmingham needs to step in and explain why the flag was picked up. I’m more of a fan of incompetence versus conspiracy, but it’s not a huge stretch to see some things that happen in the SEC as conspiratorial.

The entire fanbase overlooked A&M and was only concerned about next week and playoffs. You are now ashamed that 18-22 year olds did the same? There is some irony or hypocrisy in your line of thinking.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. The program has been a shitshow for the last couple years and these kids don’t know how to handle winning or expectations. 90% of the fan base can splooge on themselves about beating Ga and a CFP birth all week long but shame on these kids for doing the same? Give me a break. Anyone with even a little objectivity knew last night’s result wasn’t just possible, but likely. At least now our chances of beating Ga have risen from 2% to 6%. There’s no pressure and they can get back to undistracted football.

Never said I knew you, "chief". I just find people from Louisiana being Astros fans comical. Houston is trash...and I live here.
Some of us from BR went to Astroworld and watched the Astros in the dome every summer. It’s not rocket science those of us who did have always been fans.

re: Jayden has to throw this ball

Watching the sky came is only a good idea if you’re trying to give yourself a brain aneurysm. Missing open receivers is going to happen for every quarterback, but geezus does it have to be multiple plays on every drive for our guy? You can clearly see the frustration of the receivers every drive. It sucks that this is the best we can do at QB right now according to BK.
re: Watched the '19 game against Texas again today

It didn’t feel as close because you knew the ending. Simple as that. The 2nd half was a stressful-as-shite offensive slugfest until 3rd & 17. I was their, it was a close game.

The guy is wearing his LSU bracelet in a random hotel during the off-season, more than 2 years after he moved on. He bleeds more purple and gold after playing for just 2 years than half the righteous a$$holes on this board who’ve been following LSU for 20 years.
re: Today is Warren Morris Day
Posted by TxTiger1978 on 6/9/22 at 9:11 pm
My fist almost went through the roof of my car and we almost went flying off of I-10 at 80mph when the call came through the radio. Was driving back from a baseball tournament in Mobile. Had to pull over with some of the others in our caravan and celebrate/calm down. It was a great day to be a Tiger fan!!
re: Where were you when Morris hit that home run?
Posted by TxTiger1978 on 5/15/22 at 9:13 pm
Driving back to Baton Rouge from a baseball tournament in Mobile, Alabama. Me and my teammate driving in front of me almost went flying off I10 at the same time at 80mph when the call came through the radio.

I was talking to someone about the Braves last year and how they were able to win the series with a top notch bullpen and no really dominant starting pitchers, like they were known for in the 90s. Maybe this team is kind of similar (even though we need to improve on the errors).
So Maddux, Glavine, and Smoltz weren’t dominant starters? How high exactly are your standards?
Edited to say I may have misread your post and you’re referring to the current Braves pitching staff. If so, my apologies.
