no

[mookie2001]

i watch the college world series thats about it
texas makes it pretty often

2005 was a dominant team

couldnt name more than a few players though


the problem is its not really baseball, its all white rich kids, 2nd rate prospects, playing with aluminium bats, with the coaches calling pitches

and the announcers are a joke, clearly pro guys who go off for 20 minutes on shit not even related to sports

texas is a football school, even our recent national powerhouse nba factory basketball program gets no coverage and doesnt sell out home games

[DMX7]

I do, I'm watching it now.

[Spursfan092120]

I do as well...I'm watching the game right now. Horns playing a good one, as usual. Tied going into the bottom of the 8th.

[tlongII]

I love watching the CWS. Texas is in a good one right now with ASU.

No shit..I'm on pins and needles right now. I know damn good and well even if ASU wins, Texas will end up in the Finals against LSU. No way in hell they lose two in a row to this team...but this game is nerve-wracking.

[DMX7]

What a stupid error. #4

[Spursfan092120]

Wow...insane catch...Horns will not let this game go...

[Spursfan092120]

shit

[DMX7]

F*ckin retard who made that terrible throw to 1st base lost this game.

[Spursfan092120]

game ain't over yet...we all know UT loves last minute comebacks..but yeah..definitely a shitty error...tried to fling it instead of grab it and throw it.

[Udokafan05]

I found myself watching hours of college softball. Lawrie from Washington was awesome.

[Spursfan092120]

2 outs left..come on Horns...get something goin.

[DMX7]

Yes, sir!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Home run!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spursfan092120]

Fuck yeah..Homer baby..this game ain't over..more last minute fireworks.

[Spursfan092120]

Texas is going to pull this out in the 9th...ASU better pull that pitcher..just saw his eyes...he looks scurred.

[Spursfan092120]

Ballgame...Hell fuck yeah.

[DMX7]

Texas is going to pull this out in the 9th...ASU better pull that pitcher..just saw his eyes...he looks scurred.

Nice call son. Fight Texas!

[Spursfan092120]

Nice call son. Fight Texas!
Thanks man...saw it in his eyes..I knew he was done. They showed the slow mo replay and that pitcher was about to cry...I knew they needed to pull his ass or this game was over.

[Spursfan092120]

Texas vs. LSU...College World Series.

Exactly. That's why Texas baseball is such a joke. Like one of the most populated schools in the country can only field a team year in and year out that is 92% white and clean cut.
I mean I can understand if all the pitchers are white, those are the only ones rich enough to have proper guidance since the cradle....
But it's like Victoria High School sports out there.

[Biernutz]

I love to hear the "ping"---Go Horns---make me watch the whole game --go Augie!!!!!

[Bukefal]

I saw some of the game, that was really cool! Go Longhorns!!

[DMX7]

whatever... Look at MLB, its not like they're all black. The international players don't go to school and come from other countries so obviously they aren't going to be playing college ball so its not really that big of a deal that most of them are white. Its the nature of the game.

[mookie2001]

true it will be like that

but come on i bet all these guys could play golf, go to a wine and cheese party, and listen to coldplay all in the same day

if they werent all paid out they wouldve signed a pro contract by now

That doesn't make any sense. Texas has a lot of black athletes. You can't say a school is a joke because they don't have a certain amount of athletes that are a certain color. They wouldn't be considered a joke if they were pretty much all black, so why is it the other way around? Obviously they're not too much of a joke...they have one of the most successful baseball programs in the country, and are up there at the top almost every year.

I was being slightly facetious but the point remains (even though UT baseball is uber) I find it hard to believe year in and year out the best the school can find is a 90% white team. No duh ut has black athletes, but we're talking baseball. It's the whole texas good ole boys coaches son system that you can see in 5A high schools. Anyone that lives in this state knows personally someone who was bad ass at baseball and got shafted out of a team spot to favor the clean cut white guy.

Not until they make the CWS
