The dingerfest against LSU to end their season was a lot of fun too.

OldTimer should have made this week's pick em an over/under on the number of "I need a jersey" threads on page 1.

Looking forward to going there this summer.

When I was working in Bluffton, SC 5 years ago, I got an opportunity to work several 2-week gigs in Anchorage and Juneau. Was an amazing experience and one that I was so lucky to enjoy. Gorgeous region, summer or winter. Everyone should experience that state..

Obviously, the Gilbert and Ferguson walk-offs were way, way cool.

Other memorable moments:

Russell's 3d homer of the day vs Vandy was electric.
Appearing in the finals at Hoover.

Another one pops to mind: CTV and Dave Van Horn, the Arkansas coach, getting into a public brouhaha on the field for all to see. I remember thinking how refreshing it was for us to have a coach who wasn't intimidated by his senior/mentor and the SEC institution that is Van Horn. Would that Fulmer have treated Spurrier that way just once.

Also, the total destruction of LSU during their coach's last game/series was very entertaining.

Talking about CTV, how would you rank what happened last weekend, knocking off the #1 team in the country at their place in the manner that they did? Most impressive achievement?

I think getting the Vols to the CWS as soon as he has is #1. Going on the road @ Ole Miss and sweeping them is big, but I also think we need to see where Ole Miss ends up in the final standings before that's something we put in stone ya know. In terms of this season, it's easily #1.

Here in W. TN (Jackson area) we're getting 40 + mph winds. Bad storms are at the Mississippi River.
This line of storms goes from the Gulf of Mexico all the way up and into the State of Michigan. It's a doozy & packing tornado warnings everywhere.

I don’t know about most. Having 2 sweeps this early is something, especially on the Road versus the #1 team, with a new starting rotation, two freshman…impressive.

I'm hunkering down as much as possible. So far, there hasn't been any heavy rain in my neck of the woods .... just strong ass winds for now. But the rain is on it's way according to the radar.
