I don't think.....

it was just aggressive and unnecessary, I think it is who the poster is in terms of emotional stability and maturity during and around games the reverse MOJO protests notwithstanding. Like I said you reap what you sow and in this case, at least IMO, I think it was the best response. I agree with you that nobody reading pro's posts seriously thinks he knows more than a coach. Most former athletes with any degree of self awareness temper their criticisms and questions recognizing that there may be information they do not have such as the reported illnesses amongst the team the last couple of days.

Not sure if/when Pete will learn: Molly can be good BUT not more than 2-3
hokiepro • 05/12/23 01:04 PM ET
Did you ever think that there may have been no one to replace her?
VTChip • 05/13/23 12:02 AM ET
And this is the type of info that makes fools out of us**
VTMONEY94 • 05/13/23 12:06 AM ET
Very true.
RJHokie • 05/13/23 11:47 AM ET
In Pro's defense, he didn't know about this fact
VTChip • 05/13/23 12:26 AM ET
There's a difference between stating and questioning.
Al Czervik • 05/13/23 11:29 AM ET
Yeah and I left my original wording up
hokiepro • 05/13/23 06:18 AM ET
Does it ever give you........
2hhoop3 • 05/13/23 11:36 AM ET
Ok. Sometimes it’s probably a bit harsh but seriously give me an idea here
hokiepro • 05/13/23 11:47 AM ET
I do not believe.......
2hhoop3 • 05/13/23 12:00 PM ET
Yep….just be aware that coaching decisions are usually based on
RJHokie • 05/13/23 11:53 AM ET
Hey Chip does Camie Martin work with the softball team? She’s my niece. **
SCHokie1103 • 05/13/23 03:28 AM ET
Come on Pro, I'm sure Pete knows. **
VaTechHokiesACC • 05/12/23 04:13 PM ET
Did you see what I said later/edited
hokiepro • 05/12/23 05:13 PM ET
Not sure if/when you will learn that coaches are coaches for a reason**
Brewing_Hokie • 05/12/23 02:28 PM ET
And we also know that they are infallible, and never make the wrong
Italian Stallion • 05/12/23 02:44 PM ET
Good thing I didn’t say coaches were perfect but certainly better than pro**
Brewing_Hokie • 05/12/23 02:57 PM ET
Don’t be confused - he knows her limitations.
RJHokie • 05/12/23 02:23 PM ET
Need to be stronger than "don't be confused". "Be real" is much better.**
laphroaig • 05/12/23 02:26 PM ET
Pro gets confused sometimes…..**
RJHokie • 05/12/23 02:36 PM ET
Sometimes?**
Brewing_Hokie • 05/12/23 02:39 PM ET
Do you honestly think Pete doesn’t know this ?
texashokie1 • 05/12/23 02:00 PM ET
That’s probably right. I’d question why no Lemley to try to extend to 7
hokiepro • 05/12/23 02:32 PM ET
Please edit this post so I can understand what you are saying. Many words
Italian Stallion • 05/12/23 02:07 PM ET
Not sure he had another option
farmville hokie • 05/12/23 01:12 PM ET
Yep. Gotcha. Maybe he learned today that’s how she could be used
hokiepro • 05/12/23 01:22 PM ET
"Not sure" to start and now a "maybe" as a follow-up? Understand some
laphroaig • 05/12/23 02:33 PM ET
That’s fine. See above
hokiepro • 05/12/23 02:41 PM ET
We know that. We all wanted the same. Disappointing for sure.**
laphroaig • 05/12/23 02:48 PM ET
Maybe you should ask Coach..
HokieMama18 • 05/12/23 01:12 PM ET
These types of posts add nothing to the discussion and are only designed to
Italian Stallion • 05/12/23 01:55 PM ET
I do not think......
2hhoop3 • 05/12/23 02:26 PM ET
While I agree that the phrasing of the comment by the original poster
Italian Stallion • 05/12/23 03:03 PM ET
I don't think..... ◄
2hhoop3 • 05/12/23 03:39 PM ET
It’s words on a message board
hokiepro • 05/12/23 05:30 PM ET
The OP is insulting to Pete. "Not sure if/when Pete will learn"? Really?
laphroaig • 05/12/23 02:23 PM ET
I agree that it could have been taken as insulting to the coach and would
Italian Stallion • 05/12/23 03:06 PM ET
Reply was a dig, yes, but the OP was also a dig.
laphroaig • 05/12/23 03:26 PM ET
Not debating your point, they were both digs, but I did not see you reply
Italian Stallion • 05/12/23 03:51 PM ET
Like I said, the reply doesn't have to be read as a dig because it is a
laphroaig • 05/12/23 04:00 PM ET
I agree.....
2hhoop3 • 05/12/23 04:00 PM ET
We weren’t winning this game
texashokie1 • 05/12/23 01:06 PM ET
Yeah I guess but for 1 inning to extend game? You never know
hokiepro • 05/12/23 01:12 PM ET
VT will have to ride Emma has long as possible. Team needs a dominant #1
wc hokie • 05/12/23 01:06 PM ET
They will Emma and Lyndsay
