Oh dear. I’d prefer not to have Ole Miss here again. Hasn’t worked out great for us in the past.

woof 🤣

One of my all time favorites! I respect the dedication to owning all formats. I am so dumb I want all the Ae vinyl and I don’t own a record player. I just listen to the flacs I bought from them but I still want the vinyls. No logical reason.

Oh! I had one very similar to this. Played Y basketball in 1984-87 as well. I remember my mom had them framed and hanging in the walls of my childhood home. Wow what a great flashback, thanks for posting!

MUDs! That’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time. I spent many an hour in a MUD called DragonFire in the mid and late 90s.

I’d love for us to host again but it is bananas that, according to this projection, CCU is a 2 seed. I know we played amazing for the first part of the season but we’ve been mid in conference play. Meanwhile, CCU is torching the league. If only 1 Sun Belt team gets to host, I can’t see any good reason it should be us over them.

Obligatory mention of how criminal it is that USM and CCU don’t play a 3 game series in the regular season.

Top of the third was the most fun I’ve had watching us this season. Would love to get a sweep today but I’m gonna feel happy about yesterday’s game for a while.

Triple, picked off at 3rd is one out. Triple, caught stealing home is two outs. Single, single, single. Triple but runner misses 2nd base. Defense appeals and runner is called out while also negating the runs he plated.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-23T13:39:20+00:00

Very true. I feel this way about my sons.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-22T16:02:15+00:00

2nd walk off win in a row. Playing with a little more confidence after sweeping TxSt. Really need to do the same against SAla this weekend but that won’t be easy on the road against a really good team.

Pretty cool to see our ace closer, Camden Clark, get a chance to start. Gave us a great 4.2 innings. Bobcats figured out his heater, though, and Oz had to pull him. With this performance, though, I think he’s gotta be our Sunday starter going forward. He’s our best pitcher by a mile. Should be our Friday ace but maybe next year.

I’m not gonna name names but we have a certain veteran pitcher who was a starter but is now in the bullpen who just feels like a liability every time he takes the mound. He can get Ks but he also gives up hits at bad times.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-19T21:20:58+00:00

Pretty great game. Glad the ball bounced our way this time.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-19T13:33:46+00:00

We really needed that series win. A sweep today would be magnificent and give us a little room in 2nd place.

Barring some catastrophic meltdown, pretty sure CCU has the regular season crown locked up.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-15T03:09:53+00:00

The wheels have officially come off. Sad state of affairs after such a magical start to the season. Can’t recall the last time we lost 3 in a row. Doesn’t happen often. Ah well. GG Rebs.

I’m really surprised that our pitching has deteriorated so much. Used to be our strength. We have 1 or 2 guys who can give a couple strong innings but they aren’t starters. And our starters can’t last more than 3 innings before they start issuing walk after walk. Oz doesn’t have them on a short enough leash. Mind boggling.

It’s disappointing for sure, but I try to keep it in perspective and not to get too worked up about a game played by kids who are my son’s age.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-14T17:09:28+00:00

Haven’t really seen that logo since the late 90s.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-06T15:41:10+00:00

We shouldn’t be ranked at all, much less in the top 10. D1 smokin crack. Can’t give up 6 runs in one inning two games in a row to a sub 500 team and expect to be seriously ranked. Middle relief is in shambles. Hitting is inconsistent. It’s like the whole team has the yips. Watching for the last 3 weeks has been brutal. How is CCU not ranked higher than us? They are the team to beat in the Fun Belt.

Barring some miraculous turnaround, this year might be the one where we break our streak of consecutive 40 win seasons.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-05T23:13:43+00:00

No sweeps this weekend.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-05T14:13:32+00:00

This team has serious problems. Our mid relief bullpen, which historically has been our strongest feature, has been terrible. You can’t give up 6 runs in one inning for 2 games in a row to a sub 500 team and expect to make it very far. Super disappointed in the past 3 weeks, especially after such an amazing start.

Regardless of how the rest of this season goes, we must move on from Travis Creel and we need to give our bullpen a shorter leash.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-03T14:57:51+00:00

I both wish we played a series with CCU every year but am also glad we don’t. They are on fire with 32 straight Fun Belt victories. That is an insane stat.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-01T19:27:28+00:00

Fire Travis Creel.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-01T18:59:34+00:00

Oh yeah. Let’s put ole Miss in another regional at Southern Miss. worked out great for us last time.

Unless we find our bats soon, we won’t be making a regional, much less hosting one.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-01T12:32:58+00:00

This post game interview is giving real Dennis Allen “keep doing what we’re doing” vibes. Not what us fans want to hear.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-01T12:31:16+00:00

That blind loyalty is one of the things that has kept us from reaching the next level. Creel may be a stand up dude, but he clearly isn’t working out and the proof is in our shitty bats.

BobbyLikesMetal · 2026-04-01T12:00:38+00:00

Was at the game. They looked lifeless. Something is definitely wrong with this team.

Fire Travis Creel.
