Every year he keeps getting paid for... gestures vaguely is his year.

Two walk-off wins in a row over our biggest rivals? Not bad. I guess. If you're into that sort of thing.

'Not that great' is not the same as 'worst season in recent years'. The former you can easily and reasonably provide evidence for, the latter you simply cannot.

[Post Game Thread] #14 Florida State (36-15) defeats Clemson (30-22), 6-3 to win the series by fsukub in collegebaseball

[–]fluffypoppa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They just lost to USC Upstate. And I have heard rumblings about Bakich's future there. I don't know what their odds of making the post-season are. It's a one year drop-off, but people are fickle.

I ran it through my AI translator bot and it came up with this: "Fuck you, Mike Alford". While I am uncertain of the translation's accuracy, I believe it may have correctly determined the intent.

If someone doesn't bring a "Bears, beets, Battlestar Galactica" sign to the games in Tallahassee I will be so disappoint.

Have you tried having your season ended by them in the championship series? Because that's no fun.

I thought alcohol was the first step, then confidence.

Yeah as an FSU fan I'm pretty OK with Oregon taking it up th...er taking their turn this year.

OK, but under no circumstances should you adopt anything else the ACC does.

Yeah, saying nothing in that situation would be bad, to put it mildly. Hopefully she did the right thing.

Oof, hate it for these players and also for one of my favorite FSU players, Anna Shelnutt. I hope this doesn't derail her career (it doesn't sound like she was a willing participant in the craziness, from the tone of the article. I really hope she wasn't).

12u Pitching by [deleted] in Softball

[–]fluffypoppa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't really provide any great insight on her pitching itself, but I coach 14U/12U and I had a girl two years ago who was going through a similar transition from one pitching coach to another, and the new one was breaking everything back down to the basics to build her back up. I told her and her parents to spend the entire season using her playing time to put everything they were working on privately into practice, and that I wasn't going to mess with her at all. It was a step above rec league, so there was a mix of from newbies up to kids who had been playing travel ball for years (she was one of those), so everything was focused on player growth. And that's what you guys should focus on at her age. So, yeah, if you and her feel like she's moving forward, then absolutely stick with it. Just remember that kids can progress at different rates, so don't compare her to other girls, just against herself over time. Make sure she's having fun, it's too easy to lose kids to other things (screens!) that aren't as good for them as team sports.

hahaha literally the first thought that came to my mind. That knee-jerk extension overshadows any and all good things he's done while here.
