Chances looking better that the hardest rain passes just north of town. But lightning delays will still be in play. We will see how and when that second batch comes near...

They should have moved up the game time.

You packin' golf balls or mustard bottles?

In honor of CFA

 

[Jax_Vol]

Yeah! I've grown to like the black with white pants.

We've won a lot of games in the black shirts.

Ready to begin seeing portions of this anticipated game 3 while working on a Spring Sunday.

It makes me think of Oreos mostly because it’s those same 2 colors unless it’s mint, or some flavor.

That uniform combination (ugh!) reminds me of that old Jerry Clower story, about the duck hunter he met who didn't use a gun.

Seems (don't know why old timers always start a tale that way, but...) seems Jerry got invited to go duck hunting in south Mississippi with a guy on some delta land. When they headed out, he noticed the guy didn't have a gun.

"You fergettin' sumpin?"

"A gun? Naw, don't use 'em. I just use my face," and the guy made this awful, ugly scowl. "Just wait. I'll show you."

They get to the duck blind, set out some decoys, and start their calls. Soon, a flock swirls into sight and starts to land. The guy jumps up, leans forward and makes that ugly face.

Two mallards fell out of the sky, stone cold dead.

Jerry was amazed and watched him do it again, this time with some canvasbacks. "I ain't never heard of anyone able to do that! Have you ever met anyone else who can knock ducks out of the sky with just an ugly look?"

"Well... my wife can, but I won't let her. She tears 'em up too bad."
-------------------------

Okay guys, you've got the uniform look you want. Now go out there and don't tear 'em up too bad!

Something to think about.

Tonight has a pretty good chance of being the last game at "Lindsey Nelson Stadium"

Let's make Lindsey proud!

Well played, well timed! GBO!

Let’s not be nervous about this one as fans, maybe the positive energy will flow into Lindsey Nelson from the good vibes. The sun will rise again tomorrow no matter what.

What’s the weather like? We going to get this in?

 

[fryeguy93]

There's the lead for the Gators. 2 run single

 

[fryeguy93]

So walking Cags gained you nothing. In fact. Clemson had a better chance of not letting Cags score if they had pitched to him

 

[VolPack22]

Good lord Clemson. Intentionally walk Caglianone and then hit the next batter lol

 

[fryeguy93]

time to check the liquor supply

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

My Texas buddy is 100% convinced they get Vitello from us. What an arrogant delusional fan base

Lol... Never say never but Vitello is not likely to go anywhere anytime soon.

 

[BruisedOrange]

This is gonna either hit or pass just north of the stadium by 5:15pm. Then there's a 2-3 hour gap before the next rain patch. But that's totally armchair, me looking at the radar.

It’s ok to be nervous because we know the realistic disappointing outcome instead of the rose colored glasses view of Tennessee winning today is the only realistic outcome.

 

[TennEddie]

I hope the weather doesn’t delay or suspend this game.
My nerves need this thing over ASAP.

 

[txbo]

I

I agree but if we don’t play hard all nine this could be the last for mine. I know it will come, but just hoped it was in Omaha. But either way, it has been one unbelievably fantastic journey.

I hope Your family has a wonderful weekend of memories for Kirby’s last appearances at LNS as a player. Enjoy it all.
