Eric – keep up the great work of covering all angles of the college baseball map. Please feel free to join our tailgaiting and watch the Southereastern Louisiana Lions play the Texas State Bobcats at Alumni Field in Hammond, LA the weekend of April 16-18. That same weekend LSU will be playing Alabama at “The Box” just 45 minutes west of Hammond. You could catch a great SEC matchup and an even greater SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE MATCHUP in the same weekend. Think about. LOL

Thanks for all your work!!

Not a bad ‘Best of’ man. Thanks for the off-season reads. Football just depresses me, so it’s good to have this.

Eric:

you are often imitated, never replicated!

I see I have a lot of movies to catch up on too. Keep it coming. Feb. is a long way off.

If only you could quit being such a SEC “homer” now!

Keep up the good work man. Top 10 movies, how could you miss Wedding Crashers?

I’ve seen other writers stuff. There is nothing wrong with what you find on other sites. It’s good. But nobody looks like they’re having fun covering college baseball like you do. Keep up the good work.

Great lists as always. The Templeton announcement as chair was another very disappointing decision. Eventually the NCAA committee may actually be comprised and lead by intelligent and well versed college baseball fanatics.

Another possibility for top game in the CWS is the 2003 Stanford vs. Cal State Fullerton third game. Stanford won 7-5 in extra innings. Trailing 5-3, Johnny Ash hit a two-run homer off of Chad Cordero to tie the game in the 7th inning. Then Danny Putnam hit a two-run homer in the 10th to push Stanford into the first championship series against Rice. Fullerton second baseman Justin Turner was hit in the face by a pitch late in the game, a sight everyone watching the game remembers. It has to be one of the most heartbreaking losses in the history of the Titan program (behind the 1992 national title game). The decisions and outcome of that game are still widely talked about by Titan fans due to the quality of that particular team.

Well I don’t think it matters much becase either way Stitch, your columns are always more original and unique than anyone elses out there. That’s why I read.

Actually, Tiki, wasn’t Ruchti’s walk-off single off Street in the 10th inning? No question that for Rice fans, at least, that game has the edge over the Stanford 10th inning victory (which happened to be the very next game the Owls played that year).

BTW, as much as I love Eric’s unique perspective and, unquestionably, the most entertaining writing style in all of college baseball, why do some feel necessary to bash Mark Etheridge and Kendall Rogers, and their respective sites? As Eric says, the more the merrier! And since when does Kendall not follow– and write about– West Coast baseball?
