Win or lose, I'm enjoying this run, this team, and some drinks.

A little Glenmorangie makes many things easier to take.

Dude its Wednesday night. I had one beer and I'm taking my ass to bed as soon as this is over. Up at 5am. Have a couple for me though.

Diet Coke from 7-11. I used to be a McDonald's only fountain diet coke girl, but 7-11 has super huge sizes like the Super Big Gulp. And it seems to stay carbonated longer.

Just some Jim Beam and key lime La Croix (the key lime one tastes like skittles). Was hoping it was going to be celebratory drinks, but I’m downing it nonetheless

I didn’t want to start a post to junk up the board, but I think it’s ok to be disappointed in how the season ended for baseball.

i had no expectations for them when the tournament started, I hoped they’d win at least one, maybe two, but they moved on to face UCLA. Again, expectations were low for this series, then they win game one and eventually beat the number one team. 

They made it, surely this momentum can’t last in Omaha. Well it did. Four straight wins including a win in the final. Now my expectations are sky high because I’ve seen what this team can do and how they are capable of playing. Your expectations are raised as they are exceeded. So you can still be disappointed in how the season ended, wishing for a better performance while still appreciating how awesome the run was and how hard these athletes played. 

Hats off to our old ball team. Hopefully there’s more magic this time next year.

I am enjoying whatever the Vandy admissions team was drinking when they admitted baseball scholarship players who can’t read past the 3rd grade level of elementary school. 

Edit:  sorry but Vandy = dog shit

Great run. Represented the North and Big 14 well. Pitching needs an upgrade, after Henry, but the future is spectacular.

Shit me, but if a high academic private university like Vandy admits the best players with no academic standards.  We are fucked in baseball forever. What the shit is that about?  No wonder Vandy has come out of nowhere in baseball over the past few years ...

It was a fun run but goddam do Michigan athletics cave in the spotlight. Whether it’s basketball, football, hockey, or now baseball, we just can’t seem to close it out.

Still a hell of a run, I don’t want to understate what the baseball team accomplished of course.
