Not to steal Chip’s thunder from his upcoming tale of the tape but
Scouting reports for this week:
-Don’t walk people, come right at them
None of the other 3 teams has a team BA above .284
-LSU & SAlabama however do have top 32 team pitching staff ERAs
-S Alabama’s BA is .251 with 37 HR.
But their ace has allowed 2 runs the last 3 games

More importantly complaining—2nd guessing.

that's ridiculous. Like, we were down 2 or 3 runs vs. Liberty & we were already being swept by UNC.

If you’ve not figured that out by now…well I guess I need to tell you.
Some think it’s funny others don’t…if you don’t …just pass on by. I’ve tried to dampen it a bit and only throw one in once and a while to try to get us going…that’s literally it
It pleases/amuses me when I’m “wrong” and we immediately blitz a team and people come in and shake fists telling me how wrong I was…sorry if you don’t get that

what happens in the field.
I just don’t understand the overwhelming negative, doom-and-gloom, “woe is us” sentiment that’s predominant in this fanbase, & that you are a caricature of. Like, how do you post 90% negative when this is team is as good as it is?
And why do so many people here feel the need to point out every perceived slight by the TV announcers, Jim Phillips’ stylist, or whoever’s in charge of updating the ACC bracket? Who ****ing cares if it’s not updated? We won!
My responses (“shut down the program!”) are generally to point out how ridiculous you sound, also to counteract all the negativity. You’re not the only one who’s mostly negative, & the worst are the ones who post nothing about softball for weeks & then chime in after a loss.
Ok. Rant over. Hope you’re doing well, pro. Go Hokies!

Chemo port goes in Friday…just hope I’m home and lucid in time for game time so if I’m not on during the game yall didn’t scare me off 😂
I get what you’re saying. It’s just been a long life of “close but no cigar fandom”
I’m trying to have some fun with it and yeah it’s a little weird & superstitious. And of course I know nothing I say makes their performance change thanks for that enlightenment 😜

Except to complain about Live Stats and to 'egroan' occasionally.

This board is more informative and accurate at times.

What???
Don't you know that Hokie fans have psychic abilities, far beyond those of normal people? That they can smash an opponents' momentum, with a single well timed and magnificantly crafted post?

I just read and scroll. Read and scroll. And post non-controversial attempts at humor.

You'll stop worrying about what people think about you, when you realize how *seldom* they think about you.
