    Speaking of Hoover and way off topic...back in the 70's one of the local surfers here, Glenn Denman, was caught using a vacuum cleaner to pleasure himself (so the story goes) and so earned the nickname "Hoover" from then on. Man he hated that nickname, but we all thought it was pretty funny......

    I posted on another thread:
    Gators need to win. Treat this game as a "play in game" not just for SECT but for NCAA post seaon.

    When you look at the Vandy home and away records you wonder if they steal signs.

    Old school pitching.

    I never got catchers throwing out scuffed baseballs. As a former pitcher I loved getting a scuffed baseball.

    Lurk—

    I’ve never seen anything like catchers AND PITCHERS throwing out baseballs that have been hit or struck the dirt. Those were gold in our day.
