just another VT team that cannot win the big game
You hear all this stuff for VT PODCAST and media, VT is all that, guaranteed tourney, ,ranked, great players, best coaching. however, when it comes down to money games, find a way to lose. It's the same every year. SOFTBALL BASEBALL BASKETBALL MENS AND WOMEN's FOOTBALL Is this trend, and the athletic department accepts mediocrity. and I remember Whit's quote we are a program of champions. well well well Is VT a noviety athletic program, that is average, and only get once in 10 years anything successful other than middle of the pack

Umm. So last night vs a top 35 RPI team doesn’t count?
Last week’s game 3 vs FSU doesn’t count? 3 wins vs top 15 Stanford don’t count? We lost today because the officials didn’t do their job. Lots of non-Hokie softball fans around the country on X were calling out the umpires & ACC for not suspending the game ** Edited by hokiepro at 5/9/2025, 4:44:17 PM

Nice job Merc.......
a perfect reflection of your usual levels of ignorance. Even sadder is there appear to at least be 3 more like you or, maybe you just used some of your other accounts and former posting names.

Was this a “big game”? It was a conference semifinal. An important game in
terms of this season but a big game? Nah. And that’s the problem with the whole big game complaints. Games that wouldn’t be considered big if we won suddenly become big if lose.

It was an important game. We are on the bubble for hosting NCAA. If we
had won it would have moved us past Clemson and almost guaranteed us a top 16 spot.

I said it was an important game in the context of the season. But I would
not consider it a “big” game. It wasn’t on the national stage and it wasn’t a win or season’s over game. It was a run of the mill conference tournament game. We’ve won plenty of those in softball but they aren’t considered “big” because we won.

Agree....that is one of my favorite things about this logic....they forget
you don't earn the opportunity to "lose" big games without winning big games. It is the constant moving target. Tough loss, but it is a crazy mindset. The fact that anyone suggests that we get "once in 10 years anything successful" is simply lost, confused, or both. Never have understood the urge to run to a message board after a loss and rip everything about your (presumably) school as if it is therapuetic. Send yourself an email if that helps (others may wish to take this advice during games as well)! Can't even get Whit's quote correct. Understand real disappointment, as we all have and will have again.

Half the people that earn the privilege of being in a money game lose.
