Mainieri called it a "pitcher-friendly" strike zone? It may be that, but it's actually a complete perversion of the game.

SOOOOO disappointed by OSU.

I really did not want to be forced to pull for either Florida or TCU.

But now I guess it's GO HORNY TOADS!

Let's hope the orange polo shirt doesn't have the same effect as the sweep shirts.

LSU should have to forfeit based on how stupid Kramer Robinson's hair looks. I will go out on a limb and say men with fake platinum blonde hair is not something women like.

Given the title of this thread, don't go counting any corndogs before they are ... LSU has faced elimination 3 times so far this CWS and is 3-0. I would not be surprised if they play again tomorrow.

How do you leave in the 8th inning of championship series? It looks tough but crappy fans to leave.

I'd bring in a toy Hess truck 2/3 of the way through the day, have it go really fast for about an hour and watch it run out of gas late.

Make sure these co-workers stay all day no matter how bad things get. No leaving for the exits at the first sign of adversity.

I find it admirable that BaconWave refers to the LSU guys that deliver lunch as co-workers.

thank you Gators. From the very depth of my heart, thank you. You out of town guys think its hard having to listen/read to this LSU cr@p? Try living down her where its on 24/7 on every media there is. And now, finally, its over.

Eff lsu and each and every one of their fans.

Funny story: Yesterday after work went to do some cardio at the local gym. Two treadmills down from me is a meathead with his lsu cr@p on watching the replay (important word) of the previous night's lsu/FL game. He is living and breathing every pitch: "Come on tigahs!" "You can do it tigahs!" "Bad call ump!" "Where was that pitch?", etc. Of course, has his headset on so is yelling this loudly so the whole gym can hear him. The dude next to him tries to tell him it is a replay, but he doesn't hear. This goes on for 20+ minutes. Finally when the dude next to him finishes, he taps him on the shoulder and gives him the bad news. The tigah fan throws his headset on the ground, goes on a cursing rant while all the people around are laughing so hard we almost fall off our treadmills.
It was priceless.

I watched a lot of the first game but that was mostly because I was hanging out with friends out in Monday evening's surprisingly nice weather. Obviously I wasn't rooting for them and preferred that they lose but I just didn't have the energy to get wound up over this.

Now it's pre-football season so I can get back to hating the real LSU team but...I have a feeling I might want them to win just enough to keep Big Dumb Ed around for an extra couple of years.

Well that's about the most awesome story I've read on this forum in a long time.
