    I can’t shake Dyson’s championship clincher for best all time, but for sure King climbed the mountain today. What a performance.

    Going into this series, I believe most of us just hoped to win one game, but to win two and take the series is pretty awesome. Hell of a turnaround.

    Big pitching performance from AK! I kind of like this new rotation. I hope he keeps it! We might have got the sweep had it not been for the restart. Go Gators!!

    You can go ahead and bet that whole check—if a Gator player had pulled that crap out there he would’ve been tossed. Heck, Neely got tossed on our own field for much less than that!

    He's a 5 star Safety on the football team as well. Unfortunately we live in a time where these queens are protected even more. If he was in pro ball, he would have had a fastball in the back his next time up.

    Yeah, if his antics had caused an escalation, it would have been all on the home plate ump. And as an aside, what I can't fathom this season has been this adamant enforcement of the pitch clock (who the heck knows when it is supposed to start, it appears nebulous) and the requisite ball called for non-performance and then...

    When the pitcher decides to pitch when he is prepared but the ump hasn't "blessed the event", he gets all righteous and reminds the pitcher to look at the ump as to when he allows it. And I am sure if the pitcher decides to continue their way, the ump will "ding" them. So...you pull this silly exercise but you allow a batter to act like a cock? And while that could be considered a double entendre, I mean a rooster. But I will leave it up to you as to whether your inference is better than mine.;)

    I am baffled at the behavior of the home plate blue as well as the Texas coach.
