When BC played it was pure amateurism.
In 2024 it’s what do I get to play ???? - ie $$$
They deserve all the criticism they get plus some.
If you want to go be a “pro” out of HS and get paid every week or month, go ahead !!!
You go to the college of your choice and get paid - well 17 you.
You get all the criticism and heckling without your whining!
Go play ball and nut up and win games!

One time I miscalculated the available weld strength of a 7/8” pjp weld of a w14x605 column to a 6 inch thick baseplate in front a very famously picky client in Brevard County, FL and I wished the only audience to that would have been a couple thousand internet rando’s. I’m fine. He’ll be fine.
Hahahaha. I knew as soon as that ball flew over the fence.... this type thread would be found.
Where have you been the last 30 games where your pet players have sucked. Would be nice to be hosting a regional.
To be honest, the slump of two players does not bother me so much as how many strikeouts we have in the entire team during the game. That's a song I don't want to hear over and over again.
Are you kidding? They are playing a freaking game. Sure there is pressure but the only thing at risk of being hurt are a few peoples feelings. There are many people who’s job performance affect numerous people’s livelihood and in some cases their very lives. Not to mention very tough decisions that almost everyone faces at some point in their personal lives. Sometimes fans can take sports too seriously but I‘m calling BS on the pressure of playing a kids game as being some kind of super stresser that is way tougher than what a lot of people face in life.
Uhhhhh, and a lot of peoples’ money. Tell me you don’t donate by telling me you don’t donate. Enough of this garbage, seriously. DJ and Hines are paid well to do what DJ (finally) did tonight. If he’d done it all year we’d all be in Starkville right now fighting over chicken tenders
I don’t like any of you Mother 17’ers , but Hail State. Good win

lol….. so long, Koehler sucking half the season, Larry being beyond bad 75 percent of the year. Not having a legit DH… our fantastic game manager of a coach who you said is Great in games… mismanaging more than a few games…
had nothing to do with us not hosting a regional? Blame is all on Hines and Jordan….. god what a 17 idiot
This thread gave me an idea for a movie

Damn.
You've now awakened Trojan.
We might be subjected to a week of how awesome he is at everything.
I get what you are saying. The players didn't really care what any of y'all's opinions are. We know that 99.9% of you don't have the physical capability to hit a baseball and Even less can hit it well. So almost all opinions here are insignificant. We like the accolades, but you learn to not care if someone thinks you suck. So be a fan or a critic if you want.
I always got a kick out of how fans want you to hate the competition. The truth is I have way more in common with my opponent than any fan. At the same time I want to beat anyone I compete against.
OK, I will concede that it also hurts a portion of a lot of people’s discretionary income that they gave to the NIL collective. Does this make you happy? This still does not ratchet the pressure up beyond that experienced by a great many regular people.
When you take that money, you lose the ability to be who you still think college athletes are. It’s the reality of the situation.
DJ and Hines have earned their criticism. What DJ did tonight, is expected. If you don’t like it, don’t take the money.
DJ deserves all the criticism he's gotten over the past few weeks. He also deserves all the accolades he's getting tonight. Nice job, kid!
The Pack has finally reached a point where it’s just a bunch of grumpy old men arguing just to argue. Huzzah!
Truth is, I've now watched that walk off swing approximately 273 times.
It was a great piece of hitting by a guy who has been missing a lot lately.
Shortened up and drove an 87 mph pitch over the opposite field wall. Dude is scrong...
I hate this world

Speaking of @Bulldog Bruce … I have to ask…
Bruce, do your people come out of high school looking 30 years old or is St. John’s just recruiting out of local bars and construction sites?

Yeah I guess so. I definitely don’t have any idea how much any of our players are paid. So how much is it?
