I was never the biggest Kuhio fan, but he'd at least give us options.

He'd have allowed us to platoon Robinett and Rutenbar (who's fallen off a cliff).

Quote from: Feral on May 30, 2026, 08:41 PMI've said this before, but I think the reason DVH can't (and sadly won't) win it all is because he gets tight on the big stage.

There's a reason why he's been to Omaha 10 times and the best he's ever managed is a runner up finish once, whereas guys like Pat Casey (6 CWS, 3 titles) and Tim Corbin (5 CWS, 2 titles, 2x runner-up).

You can see it in his eyes in big moments.  He will occasionally show fire when griping at the ump but he's pretty soft otherwise.

He doesn't even bother to gripe at the umps anymore.
I'm on smoko, so leave me alone.

Key injuries (football, basketball, baseball) kill us nearly every year. Always at the most inopertune times.
Well, shit...

Yeah. I was kidding. Mostly. At least if we had the Aloy of the last month or so.

No I know. Just highlighting how yet again we suffer a key injury at the worst possible time that screws up our approach.

Could've used Wiggins this year.

Nearly every one of our hitters watched at least 1 or 2 pitches right down the middle with the bat on their shoulders. My wife even mentioned it.
Well, shit...

You think he could hit a curve ball?

When that ball dropped in Omaha, you saw it in his face. I hate it, but that's sports. He hasn't been the same since.

What aggravates the shit out of me is when we watch a strike 1 meatball right down Broadway and then swing at junk in the dirt on the next pitch.

Pompey, Helfrick, Stewart and Niu do it all. the. time.

2023 is probably different if we have Wiggins 1.0 as well.

That, and I would cream my jeans if just one lefty would dribble a double down the left field line.

Just once.

They are too busy grounding out to first.

No worse than half our lineup.

Please.  As Arkansas fans we've been through so much worse than losing a game in a regional.

All of us still posting here proves we're all too mentally challenged to give up all hope.

I'm too mentally challenged to do a lot of things, but not to give up hope.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."
