That’s okay.
There’s still ole miss, Mississippi State, bama, florida, oklahoma, georgia, and kentucky to represent the SEC!

Oh wait

Nevermind 😎

Looking at SEC baseball this year, would any of y’all have believed that only 4 out of 13 teams would survive to the Super Regionals? And only 3 maximum teams can make it to the CWS?

Looking at the field, is anyone else annoyed that we were paired with arkansas in the super Regionals? Beating them will be a really big deal.

Saw on news that some guy named Possum and his family were flying back home from Italy, and flight got diverted to North Korea..Flight Audio could be heard where he was screaming
”Refs in North Korea are not as corrupt as the SEC”.

He was later seen that evening playing golf with Kim Jong Un,where they collectively made 26 hole in ones.

We made it home at 10:00 Knoxville time, last night. It was a great experience and I'm glad we did it but we saw so much in such a short time, I'm having a hard time remembering everything we did. Luckily, I took close to 800 pictures and I'll post all of them for you guys over the next few days.

Yep. You want some engagement on Twitter for anything sports related it's a pretty simple formula.

Praise Clark or be critical of Reese

Make any sort of not positive comment about the Vols in any sport really

Bring up Sanders and draft

Apparently @Enki_Amenra knew the owner of Million Dollar Cowboy Bar, and Wort Hotel.

Eat a good burger, fries, and beer brutha.

Just remember, most of people working inside the park, are good people. Same for GTNP. Likely sharp, astute hard working blue collar folks. 😎 In fact majority of people I worked with out there had tons of sense.

<-- Whoops, meant to give you directions to a point of interest, thought might resonate.

If you have never been to Roosevelt's near the Jackson Square, I highly recommend. We went twice in three days.
The Taft Smashburger, Sagamore Hill Roast Chicken & Goat Cheese Salad and Bully Pulpit Beef Ragu were deeeeelicious!

Disney folks-

If you were going to Orlando with your pregnant wife (2nd trimester) and only had 1 full day to do something amusement park-related, what would you choose?

If you had half a day to do something Not Disney, what would you do? (Museums, parks, aquariums, shopping, exploring, kayaking, etc)

Fishing could be an option if one of you Floridians wants to pick up a fellow moran at the hotel....

Magic kingdom since she is pregnant. Many rides she can do and get the most for your time. If one full day.

Half day - enjoy the resort if staying on property. Pool, events, restaurants. Maybe hit up Disney springs to shop.

My wife and kids love Disney too much lol

Pitchers would still do that nowadays but the rules won’t allow it. You’d get tossed in a heartbeat.

So currently what you’ll occasionally see is a player getting beaned in a series later in the season. Not really an option in college baseball.

There’s a story(it’s true) of Bob Gibson at an old timers game hitting a guy who had ”shown him up” after hitting a home run 20+ years before😱
Different times, different players.
My son was on second base once in a high school game, he called out to our batter “curve ball” the batter smoked it. After the inning I pullled him aside and said “they will be throwing at you next at bat” sure enough second pitch boom. He trotted down to first without saying a word, then stole second on the next pitch and then third on the next pitch😎 our dugout/fans were losing their minds😂

Were they making plans for their next Disney outing, while still in the park?

It was the 2nd day of 26,000 steps, baby in stroller, post fireworks - the crowd exiting - when I had to get mad and say 'if you dont get out of my way, i'll move you.' Crowd oblivious to parent with stroller, moving toward the rides.

It was at that point that I was done. And there was a whoooolle nother day.

My sister in law planned the routes acc to best ride times, fast pass, and all that crap. So, slow strolls, enjoying the time, side games were all lost on ping ponging from station to station.

Never ever again. Dollywood for me:

I had an Arkansas fan holler me at the Coliseum. We laughed together about the SEC's tournament performances so far and wished each other luck. He said he was ready to get back home for a biscuit and I said I was ready to get back home and watch the VOLS play.
