Wife has some vandie friends over years working there & as season ticket holder (baseball), & most of them are OK. But the "sidewalk fans" who just try to latch onto that false"mystique" are mere rubes who hate Tennessee & wallow in their own jealously, insecurity, whiney petulance. Those just curdle my bile.
MsSt at a huge disadvantage playing that deep into the night. That is the thing they should have have changed in Hoover. Since the 2 teams that have not lost don’t play each other…Bracket 1 should play the early games and Bracket 2 the late games. Then Tennessee would have played the game directly before MsSt. Instead we got showers, food, some video games, full nights sleep all while MsSt sat around waiting to play and played well into the night…hahaha
Man these kids are used to playing tournaments like this growing up. If you truly love baseball then you play any time of day every day of the week. If you aspire to be a professional then they do it all the time as well. I think playing into the night is blown out of proportion quite a bit. In 2022 we played Friday at 10:10pm and Saturday at 8:55pm, then turned around and played Sunday at 2pm. Won all of them.
Smdh don’t compare MsSt to the 2022 Tennessee baseball team to begin with. Pro ball and college ball are far different. If you think pros are showing up 162 times to win games then you may need to refigure things. If you think a pro team is playing till 1 am and then facing a team twice as good as them and having much success…then please gamble against me. I like taking suckers money!
