The team that comes out of the lower right (Texas/Oregon/Georgia/State) is going to be the favorite.

The team that comes out of the upper left (WVU/Cal Poly/Little Rock/Troy) has a chance to get the easiest path to the national championship series in history.

If anything, the California schools should be disappointed with that talent in their backyards.

A lot of that talent (or at least the ones that procreate it) has moved to Texas and Florida. While UCLA and USC dominated, the talent pool in California was so massive that even the smaller schools (Fullerton and Pepperdine won titles in the 90s) benefitted.

That plus traveling cross country becoming more commonplace, has shifted the power of baseball, and now softball to the SEC states.

Before Georgia won the first SEC title in baseball in 1990, only two schools East of the Mississippi won it from 1963-1989 (Miami and Ohio State)

Before Alabama did the same in softball in 2012, only one (Michigan) had ever won it. The Pac 12 had won 24 of the first 30 national championships, and Fresno State and Fullerton won 2 of the other 6.

Here’s how much money presidents have raised for their libraries.

Biden: ONLY $4m (goal was $200m to $300m)
Obama: $1.5B to $1.6B
George W. Bush: $500m +
Clinton: $165m
George H.W. Bush: $43m
Reagan: $57-$60m
Carter: $26m (In 1981)

How does the most popular president of all with 81m+ votes in 2024 only get $4m from his supporter to build his library?

100% they are here

Looks like they put the old State logo on it, then removed part of it and put the new State logo on top of it.

Its laziness. Society is full of it if you haven't noticed. Alabama has been to the WCWS 16 times - someone knew what their logo was and let that be posted.

My teenage daughter (no pics) got a lifeguard job this summer. She set up all of her employment accounts and to get paid she has to use a service called DailyPay.

She can get her paycheck for hours that she worked the next day, but it charges around 5% to do this. Of course that's dumb so she just waits until traditional direct deposit day, but most everyone she works with is taking daily deposits.

Mississippi has its share of attention whores in its public schools.

Like the girl who wanted to wear a tux to prom so the school canceled the prom and parents made their own prom and didn’t invite her. She went on Ellen and they gave her a scholarship and made her a lesbian hero.

Six months later she was knocked up.

I plan to do this. My philosophy is to put my kids on second base and give them every advantage I can.

They'll make Kansas the #16 seed and State will be the 14 or 15 paired with Georgia/Georgia Tech.

I think we get Virginia as a 2 and Jax State as a tough 3.

She is coming off an injury and the death of her father.
