So, who would want to be Mr. Steed (UNC F4) today?

As much as I was rooting for Oregon State, I really felt bad for the kid. I was hoping he would tie it up with a homer (but that OSU would come back and win) in his lead-off at bat, but alas he struck out. That error is going to stay with him for the rest of his life, and that is a shame. I sure hope his teammates, coaches, friends and family do their best to get him through it. He needs to be reminded that mistakes are going to happen, and that he will make more errors along the way.

Steve, I hope you are not a grief counselor in your other life :D

"Cheer up, kid, you'll screw up a LOT worse than this later!" :D:D:D

I was late on this thread
 

More's the pity. The beaver jokes appear to have run their course. Maybe.

Congratulations, Oregon State. I had a friend, Will Keim, who was a Philosophy professor out there years ago. We fell out of touch. Maybe he still teaches there. He was also a pitcher at Pacific in the early-mid '70s and used to tell the funniest stories . . . I digress.

Will once told me that Corvallis is the only major college town in America more obscure than Fayetteville. I corrected him with Starkville, Stillwater, College Station and a few others. I also told him nobody who was not a geography major or a Nike exec knew where the hell Eugene was, either.

The better team (on this particular night, at least) won. Congratulations! And you know what? I heard not one commentator talking about how the umps "stole" the game and gave it to Oregon State. You can bet that if Mark Cuban was a Tar Heel alum, you'd be hearing exactly that.

Good for y'all. Now next year, the SEC can reassert its rightful dominance of the College Baseball world. My Hogs have been devestated by graduation and the draft, though . . .

Strikes and outs!

This is getting ridiculous, Bob. Steve said nothing to warrant another personal attack by this freakin child so please put a stop to it before it gets worse. Brad has assured me several times that these types of all out personal attacks by PWL would be dealt with. It's time to stay true to that word!


Tim.

Yeah, you can't even dress that one up with lots of smilies and make it look good. Like the smilies made it okay or something. It's amazing that someone who knows absolutly nothing about me would dare make such a comment about my life. Very babyish.
