    She's pretty darned enthusiastic, I'll grant you. But she's not goofy with it and she truly loves her Gators. I like her positive vibe - it serves as a counterweight to some of the extreme negativity that seems to be all-pervasive of late.

    I like when she took the dude from On3 to task over the ratings drop fiasco, was asking good questions and hit on some key points like how the hell do they have edge rushers Williams and Waller rates sooo low when every other site has them pretty high

    I read somewhere that she is, and she's married to Eric Wilbur if I recall correctly. One way or another, she's a Gator to the marrow of her bones and I can find no fault in that.

    The third Red Bull was probably not a good idea?

    Probably the most well-known incident involving the MLB’s pine tar rule 1.10(c) occurred on July 24th, 1983 after George Brett of the Kansas City Royals hit a go ahead two-run home run in the ninth inning of a game against the New York Yankees. Yankees manager Billy Martin requested that the home plate umpire inspect the bat that Brett used due to Brett using an excessive amount of pine tar on his bat previously in the season.

    Upon measuring the bat against the 17-inch home plate, the umpire confirmed that there was indeed pine tar that exceeded the 18-inch limitation and in turn, ruled Brett out for using an illegal bat. This resulted in him being the final out of the game, as the home run no longer counted. The Royals protested the ruling and the call was eventually reversed and Brett’s home run was restored. Twenty-five days after the ruling was overturned, the game was resumed in the top of the ninth inning with the Royals up 5-4 over the Yankees.

    I believe Ali’s grandfather, father, and brother all played for UF and she is married to Eric Wilbur. I do find her repetitive but not nearly as hard to listen to as some of the others

    [​IMG]It looks like they are bringing the 2000 blue on their Unis. I liked that shade of blue. Not the 2019 blue.

    I personally prefer the original dark blue jerseys. I heard that Nike changed the color because they use the same one for other schools.

    I’ve never liked posts that attack the way someone looks. Seems classless and beneath what should be the character of this board. Having said that… I liked her take. It was detailed, positive without being unrealistic, and very much worthy of gator fans watching and taking hope and excitement from it.
