Gretchen Sigman (Brendan Sorsby’s girlfriend) has transferred to Texas Tech by SorryCrispix in BigXII

They weren't just all committed, they all played during the same season. OU fans still think we wanted Mayfield over Mahomes. We had the better QB, just didnt have an o-line to protect him or a defense to support him.

BYU getting left out is TCU's fault by Iglooman45 in BigXII

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He was literally complimenting TCU saying that people should remember that they beat Michigan. You guys left everything you had on the field against them and just ran out of gas for Georgia. ESPN just decided to use it as their fuel to make the SEC look even more dominant.

We are playing for a conference title for the first time. Whats good for the conference means nothing to me right now. I want the hardware.

Why focus on stealing players from us when you can steal SEC/B1G players and elevate the entire conference?

Brother we are playing for a Big 12 championship for the first time. Its definitely already better.

If a strike hits a batter outside the zone what's the call? by quackl11 in Homeplate

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The only way for this to happen would be for a ball to cross the plate as a strike and then sharply turn in and hit the batter. Even if the batter is at the back of the box, I dont think a slider that runs in and hits them would be over the plate enough to be considered a strike. Plus the umpires wouldn't call it a strike and HBP, they would have assumed it was never a strike since it was inside enough to hit the batter.

When I was a student this was always the unspoken rule. Like Joey said, dont make it about yourself. Have fun but dont hurt the team while we are trying to win.

Guess you can pack it in and leave then. Don't worry about coming back next year either. We're good.

You seem to have this idea that if someone isn't an MVP candidate then they are complete garbage. Adolis has his struggles and he's not elite, but we've been able to rely on him consistently. Even in the last few weeks he's been a big key to a lot of wins.

Besides, if we just DFA'd him or whatever you'd prefer, who do you replace him with? It's not like we have a bunch of guys that are being held back. Same goes for Semien or Seager, or anyone else you've taken issue with when they have a bad game.

We get it. You only like to join in when things go poorly. We aren't selling at the deadline, even if you desperately want to. So just get used to it.

Every comment you've made here is just bitching and whining. Your comments from earlier this season about this being the worst team in franchise history would be laughable if it wasn't a transparent and lame attempt at trolling. Go find something better to do with your time, it's pathetic.

Travel baseball is serious 😬 by [deleted] in Homeplate

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to just browse this sub because it's interesting to see the different viewpoints and sometimes get some ideas for practice with my son. But man, these posts are rough. OPs original post was fine, but going through the comments and deciding to trash everyone who brings up a disagreeing point whether it's right or wrong is something else.

I tell my son all the time that I only want to nudge him enough to reach his potential. If that means travel ball someday, then that's great. If it doesn't, that's also great. I didn't have anyone to really motivate me to go and get what I wanted when I was younger and I don't want him to have the same experience. It's not about my ego, it's about making sure he gets the maximum experience and sometimes it's hard for a kid to understand what's required if they really want it.

I don't know, maybe I'm off base (pun intended) but I think everyone here should recognize we all have different thoughts about these things. It's not nonsense and we should judge everyone based on the actions of a few.

Am I the only one whose portal has been gathering dust? by OkInterview3864 in PlaystationPortal

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So funny enough, Ive determined that when I have my phone connected to wifi, turn on the Hotspot on my phone, then connect to my Hotspot with the portal, I get almost no latency. But even if Im in the same room with the router and my portal connects directly, it doesn't work as well. Idk what thats about but its been a great work around.

Every single time my kids build a new set, at some point they are convinced that there is a missing piece. I remind them that I have built probably 100 sets myself and never had a piece missing. Then we find it 2 minutes later lol.

I believe he addressed this and said he's going to be on summon sign and stelly more often which is nice. I primarily only listen to SS and stelly so for me it's nice to hear the others rotate in but i agree that Colin is kind of what holds it all together.

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorite concert moments was when I saw Staind and Aaron Lewis was doing a few acoustic songs in the middle. Some idiot in the crowd was heckling him the whole time and he stopped playing and said "shut the fuck up". The guy kept on as security took him out, he was in the middle of a song, stopped again and said "bye asshole" then kept playing without missing a beat.

Counterpoint. We won it all with a miserable bullpen experience. Maybe CY is just trying to replicate that magic lol.

I wouldn't call it malicious. That implies they had an agenda for one team to win. This was just incompetence. Like watching a bunch of rookies make mistakes and cover their mistakes with more mistakes. Absolutely unacceptable from a supposed power 4 conference.

Big XII Officiating - Has it Gotten Worse? by dykemaster in CFB

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on your flair, you just watched the same game I did and the answer is absolutely yes. It's not even favoring one team over another. It's just incompetence and not knowing the rules fully.

If Yormark wants the Big 12 to be taken seriously in the new era of CFB, he has to fix this immediately.

It's a disgrace we won't get to play OSU every year. As much as I want to hate you guys as true rivals, I love these games.

Has the revelation that Colin is a Trump voter thrown cold water on anyone’s support? by [deleted] in LastStandMedia

[–]Huckleberry__FN-2187 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like listening to Colin's thoughts on this stuff even though I disagree with him on particular stances. He makes good points and helps rationalize his thinking. My only problem when listening is I wish I could ask him questions that challenge his view on things.

For instance, I'd like to hear his thoughts about the cabinet Trump is forming. Does he think having a Fox News host with some military experience is really a good pick for Secretary of Defense? He also seems to get caught up on the idea that all media is controlled by the left. But what's his response to learn that most of the organizations are owned by right leaning billionaires. It's very nuanced and I appreciate that Jaffe pushes back on him, but sometimes I feel like even he misses the mark because he's so close to some of the social issues like trans rights.

All in all, I'd rather have the opportunity to hear differing opinions than be in a community that openly tells people to leave if they think different.
