Around SBN: Dana White: Carlos Condit Accepts Rematch With Nick Diaz

NCAA REGIONAL: WSU-Arkansas Game Thread Part Two


Game Time: 7:05

Video: Here GameTracker: Here.

Well, that was about the craziest game in the history of baseball (or atleast the craziest couple of innings). The Cougs survived, thanks to a huge sixth-inning.

Chad Arnold is expected to start. If you believe in prayer, pray for his arm. If you believe in positive energy, send that to his arm. If you are a physician who specializes in re-attaching limbs, we'll put you on speed dial.

And yes, you are allowed to discuss that "other" big news today. No one is going to stop you.

EDIT: James Wise started  his second game of the day. All of what I said still stands.

That helps. This guy also says Wise is starting the nightcap as well.

That could happen.

They just said on the broadcast that Arnold was starting.

Watching these Weeble Wobbles

On the game cast, i actually caught myself saying “THAT WAS A STRIKE, Ump!” I have forgotten what watching real human beings play this game is like.

by LongballWSUFB on Jun 6, 2010 5:41 PM PDT reply actions  

I love the weeble wobbles though.

I wish we could transpose them into the live video feed.

This is how i watch most Mariner games...

because of my work schedule (at work rght now in fact, shhhhh), and one time i swear I saw the Milton Bradley weeble wobble check his swing.

Because I live in Nashville and don’t want to pay for the MLB TV.

For as many times as he threw it

You’d think he would have been able to square the one that he actually threw in the strike zone, instead of pounding it into the ground.

I’d like to request game threads for Mariner games as well. They enhance my gamecast experience exponentially and are much better than almost any TV or radio play by play.

HOLY cow, i watched that Pride & Pred with the lil lady this weekend. It was about 7 hours. Mercy.

OT but does anyone know how the payout system works?

Do the Cougs get a cut of the gate each game or does every team who makes the field of 64 just get a lump sum or something completely different.

The runners advance at their own risk

Besides, the infield fly rule is for routine pop flies. Did that look routine to you?

oh i love this

where was all the bitching last night when the runner going into the infield to avoid the tag and was called safe and should’ve been the 3rd out?

by BigWood on Jun 6, 2010 8:00 PM PDT reply actions  

Honestly, I don't think that infield fly call was as bad as these guys do

The key word in the rule book is routine. At what point can the umpire decide it’s routine? At any point. Did that look routine to anyone else? Three guys converged, and they ended up dropping it. Honestly, I think the right call would have been to NOT call it an infield fly at all.

I know these guys are homers. But they need to shut up about it.

by hollyweirdcoug on Jun 6, 2010 8:04 PM PDT up reply actions  

I thought the entire purpose of the infield fly rule was

to prevent infielders from intentionally dropping easy popups and turning double plays, not to cover for your thirdbaseman who cant catch a popup.
