This and Nolan Ryan throwing Robin Ventura into a headlock are my favorite non-Braves MLB memories.

I asked AI what they thought: “this is either the same person or a deliberate imitation- but the odds of the latter are slim.”

BOT like…

Mark Richt has lost control of baseball social media's eye discipline. Richard G West again.

That’s the most homer announcing ever. Ventura didn’t get one finger on Ryan yet the announcer makes it sound like he’s putting up a good, but unfair fight. Ryan kicked Ventura’s ever lovin a$$. Dude effed around with a 45 year old hoss and found out real fast.

Sweet 16 vibe, RF style.

I need to check in with one of my former pastors. His brother has been on the equipment team for like 20+ years. This doesn’t sound good.

 

[SoilVol]

Local TV guy wanted them laid off at a ceremony? wtf.

Was someone brought in who wants to hire his own people? Idk what this is about.

I think he's referring to general team staff. In most organizations there's behind-the-scenes men and women who might work for one of these organizations for life. Literally. Professional equipment managers, trainers, lunchroom, nutrition, etc. These personnel usually are retained across coaching staff changes because they aren't part of the coaching staff.

So yeah, if you've been with an organization for 20-30 years doing your job at a high level and get unceremoniously fired because Brinker is a toolbag, it's okay to be frustrated.

Booo

My daughter doesn’t have any classes with him this semester so I don’t have the latest intel.

I do know that Kiffin visited the school before the dead period. Can confirm he heard several “Go Vols!” whilst there.

CBS ffs. Unreliable for sports news too, I see.

 

[SoilVol]

Who’s Brinker?

The de facto GM. The guy who was really calling the shots behind Ran Carthon. Had a role in drafting Levis, firing Vrabel, hiring Callahan, who then fired Carthon and scapegoated him. "President of Football Operations". Everyone reports to him except Amy.

So Cajun Seasoning didn't make the list I see. Rigged.View attachment 730248

Slap Ya Mama is my favorite variation of Cajun seasonings. I put it on everything

Booo

Who is this “Cowboy” bruh and what does he base his claim on that Sneed “been outspoken about not liking the way the Vols used their TE's last season and the lack of touches & creativity with the TEs”?

I see nothing remotely like that in Sneed’s thread, and can find no mention of anything of the sort in any of the reports on his Ole Miss visit or in an Internet search. Is this “Henny Penny” fiction? To be “outspoken” implies that there should be a record of it somewhere, prolly many reports.

Sneed also has official visits planned to UCLA on May 16, Miami on June 6, and Tennessee on June 20. A lot of guys take trips like this now, not only for NIL bargaining, but to feel sure they made the right decision.

I’ll go out on a limb right now and predict that Sneed signs with us.

1. FAU's run wasn't a fluke.
2. NIL, man. Went to schools with deeper pockets. (Of course I'm sure the coaches did too)

Happy Choose Day. Choose to forgive.

March 25, 2025: When someone disrespects you, do not retaliate. Forgive! If you do not forgive them you will not be forgiven. As hard as it might seem, you have to be the better, kinder person if you are to receive the blessing. Live your life above reproach, and you will be rewarded, says the Lord. Ephesians 4:31-32 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Doing their job at a high level? What evidence do you have of this?

I mean, I guess I don't other than the fact they've been professionals within an organization for 15-20 years. So, I'd assume they must be pretty good at what they've been doing. The success or failure of the team is not on them.
