Okay if not Saab, I’d bet the house it’s a Volvo or a Subaru.

Chose my ride in honor of Drew Beam

From his podcast with @preacherman20
He drives a Silverado
His dream car was an F150 or an old Shelby or a C8.

That is impressive mad, but I chose based on his name not his dream ride. More specifically based on a nickname he could reasonably have that could be shared by an automobile.

You never make things easy for me.

I’d say great minds, but he’s an Ohio state fan

I see Chevy Corvair DNA in that classic-at-any-speed.

I was thinking Pacer.

I almost hesitate to ask this because I know the team guards some internal things very closely...but its driving me insane.

I am 60 games into sitting near the dugout since moving. More than 500 innings.

When the opposing pitcher skips a pitch in front of home plate, one player yells something and the others yell back. What is it?

I can never make it out.

OH, MY GOSH! I'm so glad you asked this! I have the same issue, and you'd think I would've been able to make it out by now given some of the small crowds and very quiet games early in the season. It sounds like one of them yells, "Rock Skipper!" Then the others respond with something else. My best guess so far is "Bone Guzzler," but obviously that's not right (probably).

Ok, maybe we can narrow it down

From my side I hear “_______, skipper!”

And the the response sounds like “_______ gov’nor!”

“Rock skipper” would make sense because I can kinda hear them rolling the R in rock…

Who could complain about a team that rarely made it to Hoover?

If you go back to Delmonico, it wasn’t unusual, the next decade or so, lot’s of schools started investing in baseball, in CTR and CDS years how many builds/renovations were there? We were late to the game. It wasn’t that long ago when it was radio and that’s it unless you make Omaha. TV/streaming/ESPN Changed the calculation.

We don’t hit home runs because of the stadium or away teams would too, we just played in an mlb park how’d that go?

GBO!!!

Tennessee is hitting 2.6 homers per game at Lindsey Nelson Stadium this season.

The Vols hit 3.3 homers per game at Houston's Daikin Park this weekend.

Thanks Willis.
Maybe Vols and Bama are on a collision course of the last undefeated ?

That would be interesting, but I am thinking Bama likely drops a game against A&M. Gators @ Noles mid-week game gonna be a must watch.
