Baseball vs NC State, Mon 6/17, 2:00 pm EDT

I’m starting to hate this analytics stuff that says we need to be swinging away no matter what.

 

Great game to stay alive. That's all that matters at this point. Cags crushed that homer!

 

Need a 5 to 6 inning start from someone

 

He reminds me of Byrne

 

Without being in the hole after 1st inning

 

We play tomorrow night

 

More free entertainment is good.

 

Tired

 

Id say Aggies s/b favored with their #1 guy Prager going but ya never know he got lit up at in the regional and didn't get the start vs UF. Interesting matchup... Gorilla ball vs small ball.

 

Especially given that Peterson and Cags gave us 3.1 combined

 

So, a 3 inn start giving up maybe 1 run, followed by 6 inn of shut down relief sounds good.

 

I need...want don't need... an Ezra Brooks and water. Anyone want to join me?

 

Sounds great, I'll pour a little Woodford & we can compare / contrast. BTW I take my Bourbon neat

 

So, I turned on sec network, thinking there might be some post game discussion of UF game and some pregame on the UK/Aggie game, but nooooloo. Fine baum is talking Southern Living, nascar and football playoffs. What a worthless show. Should have known better.

 

I would take 3 from PC, 1/2 from one of the freshmen, 2/3 from Jameson and 1 from Neely and call it a day. Wednesday who knows...maybe Slater makes a comeback

 

I love this team. Great win today.

 

Here's hoping that tonight's game goes 15 or 20 innings late night...like until 1 or 2 am...and they wear out all their pitchers

 

A lot of back story here.

A long time ago when I was a newly minted PhD and looking for a Tier 1 university position in engineering I was in Amarillo with my fiancé, now wife, visiting and we were going out to lunch at the Amarillo Country Club with her aunt. Her aunt was almost a caricature of a strong Texas lady. Back in the day she hunted bear and owned a mid-1950's Corvette that she raced. She also owned oil wells.

Anyway we are all at her condo before lunch and she asked everybody what they wanted to drink. I said "Jack neat." She winked at me and said "I like you."

 

Ezra is my normal bourbon, but I do have Makers, Woodford, Jack, and Turkey. Gator sports have almost made me an alcoholic... but I call myself a social drinker. Keep Going Gators. Publix Liquors is just across the street.

 

Perfect story…but you need to graduate from Jack to something better lol
