    It’s unlikely to flip heads five times in a row, unless you’ve already done it four times in a row. And that’s assuming the coin is fair. In this case, the coin is probably weighted to the gator side.

    Still hard to beat a team 5 straight times as good as Vandy is. Even as bad as the Kansas City royals are they haven't been beat by any team 5 straight times.

    The “concussion protocol” pinch runner/hitter/re-insert thing seems ripe for abuse. Leave it to Alabama to lead that charge.

    74, those are two excellent reasons for wanting to play Bama but if Vandy wins it will be a neutral site game and we won’t have to face half the state of Alabama pissed off about our walk off victory!

    Was the crowd really that scary? I say bring em on. Crowd in Omaha will be much rowdier if we make it there.

    I wasn’t there so really can’t tell you. The announcers claimed that Alabama players and fans were pissed off at the Florida players celebration. Didn’t like that we pulled victory from their grasp. Just think it could get a little ugly. On the other hand, UF Vandy would be a neutral site game, split crowd and two really good baseball teams focused on playing their best baseball. But I have no problem facing Bama’s fifth starter. Might resemble batting practice.

    We’re playing Vandy, so it’s a moot point now anyway.

    That's what R.J. Schreck said on the SEC Network show... they all laughed out loud. :D

    I mean beating Vany a 5th time in a row (in the same season) has to be some sort of Monty Python skit... kind of joke.

    Agreed, I thought once you came out of the game and another player was inserted the player that came out was out of the game.

    You know, there’s no such thing as being a little bit pregnant—you either is or you ain’t—oh wait, we are talking about Abalama….

    They are awful but far from worst ones out there.

    Players choice btw.. silly kids. Just one of about 15 different combinations.. Those blue tops w/ white pants are prertty sharp. Just stay away from pants not white or gray.

    Orioles wore all black last night for some city of Blt thing. Results were first game not competitive in all year..lol 12-2 loss.

    I realize that everyone has the right to their own opinions but at least for me ALL of these dang MLB “City” uniforms are God awful. It’s one time I would have to tell Nike (or whoever) pack sand, we’re not wearing that crap.

    They are turning our greatest game into a joke all for greed of the dollar IMHO.

    Oh, are there other teams doing it also? Hadnt noticed yet.

    The all black, or any other color not white or gray, will always be bad.. But once they explained the rainbow colored trim they had, it at least made sence.. I guess it was all the shapes of the different burrows in Blt. Much better than what I wsa assuming..;) The hats were ok at least. Similar to ones we wore a Buchholz. Black, w simple cursive B

    I gues they could of been worse & went all orange.. and they actually wore those in 70s, early 80s..lol

    I agree, mostly. The one for the Braves is nice though--it reminds of 1974 and the home run king, is not gaudy, and is in normal colors! Some of those other ones are absolutely horrible!
