Jackson 24 - you joined us in December and glancing at you previous posts You are not positive on either TN baseball or softball, both of which have been ranked # 1 this year and one was NCAA winner last year and this year one is in the final eight.

Most of us would recommend an opposite approach to yours - celebrate, enjoy and feel fortunate the TN teams are doing so well. If you can't appreciate the joyous response of the softball team after winning a great game 1-0, then I'm honestly sorry for your disposition. Join us, we are cool, at least some of think so.

I agree with you as I need to be more positive. I’ll try to do better. I have been here a lot longer than December.

We scored enough to win even the first game. Karlyn was Karlyn especially if we play sound D til she hits her stride in a game. Once she settles in watch out if the D will hold which it did for two games even stellar in the last game. Dodge was the hitter on O. I suspect Nugent will hit well Thursday. If we can get Pannell and Boo hitting then watch out.

The idiom “one-trick pony” is a commonly used expression in English language. It refers to a person or thing that has only one skill, talent, or capability and cannot do anything else. This phrase is often used to describe someone who is limited in their abilities and lacks versatility. As in some of the boarders same comments written many times indicate they are a one-trick pony

The LVs and Nebraska was a three game matchup between two good teams and two elite pitchers.

The LVs were shut out twice and scored only one run in three other SEC games this year. Texas, obviously a one trick pony scored only 5 runs against two LV pitchers in their three game series. A combination of pitching, timely hitting, sound defense AND good luck, will be needed for the ultimate winner.

My cheering will be only for the LVs.

So you’re saying it’s the ideal situation. The parity in the game wasn’t there in years past like it is today.

Should be an absolute war!

Many will disagree, but I contend that they are equally matched teams.

Simply a matter of who can elevate in crunch time with a timely knock/play here and there.

First two games are brutal with Canady potentially waiting for whoever survives.

Since the beginning of the WCWS, only 3 teams have lost their first game and won the title.

In 42 years, only 3. Those 3 without looking at the bracket didn’t have the gauntlet of teams playing like this bracket of anyone outside of Ole Miss and Oregon can win it.
