Thank you all. So far, it's been a great day!
Special note to B52; I was born in '47 and my final degree at UF was in '76. I could have finished sooner, but Lyndon B. sent me a Greetings Letter in "67.
HRs are a great part of the game, but why is everyone swinging for the wall? We also need hitters who can hit the open gaps on the field when the defense shifts, but our guys just don't do that. Hard hit balls that end up with an F7, F8 or whatever on the scorebook are the easiest plays to...
I like the idea of Neely starting tonight; but I almost hate to see it too because he has worked well in closing. Liam got the nod over Cade for Saturday, but he got beat up badly against a&m but came back the against bayou kitties. Maybe middle relief will help Cade along. We cannot keep...
Disagreements may abound; but I like Cade. This year Cade has K/BB ratio of 42/7 and the Gators won 4 of the 6 games he started. With the exception of the St Johns game, I think he got at least 5 innings in before being relieved. His ERA is higher this year at 8 , but as he gets some of...
There seems to be no answer to our mid-week pitching woes. Certainly, weekend series are the most important, but it seems sully cannot find a reliable pitcher during the week. He sure is using a lot of the staff to find someone who can throw it consistently over the plate. But, pitching...
Again, as is the routine, the Gator's; game broke down when they got ahead. There is no killer instinct in this team, but it was good to see that they didn't relinquish the lead. Richards hitting that 3 at the end of the game after he missed 9 or 10 in a row; maybe he was tuning up for...
This is an important game. Win No. 20! We beat them handily before, so there cannot be a let-down for this game. With usce and the tide waiting in the wings, a win tonight could get us a 5-seed or 6-seed in the SEC tourney. If the tourney were held today and both the 5th and 6th see won...
This game was winnable, but somehow when the Gators get ahead they abandon their plan. The coverage against the 3 was fine early on but you are correct then they left the tide open with the game on the line. That tide 3 at the first part of overtime was undefended, but it was only a final...
I probably won't freak out, but both teams have 18-7 records, so an "upset" is not that far-fetched. Playing them at their house where they have only lost one game will be tough, but so was ky.
The Gators have an outrageous roster with a lot of potential; they have very tough players who can shoot the ball from almost anywhere, but they also have a problem with the ball handle. When they are ahead by a bunch, they forget there is another team on the court or just get lazy. They need...
The Athletic just ranked the Gators at 23rd. Ahead of USCe;, so we need to win another road game. We are 7-6 away from home including neutral sites, but 8-6 sounds so much better. Whenever the Gators played a full game without lazy passes and bonehead plays, they seem to win, but it takes a...
When the Gators play full games, they win! The Gators need to learn when they have a huge lead at halftime, they need to turn it on in the second. Yes, for the Gator fans, but more importantly for post season and our record book.
LSU is way better than their won-loss record, and they are...
When I was a young man playing sports, I was told sometimes you end up with bad refs. I was told by my coaches not to complain about the refs, just beat them too!
I must admit the only time I've seen a game intentionally called poorly was acc refs calling fsu's swindle at the swamp in 2003.
