The Hutch-Baugh Effect!

So much joy tonight. I don't know how any of those players are going to be able to get to sleep, what with all the adrenaline of that performance! I'm also just delighted that we ground one of the biggest sports blogs in the country to a halt over a softball game. Congrats to all you nuts out there hitting refresh & posting in the game thread! Not done yet!

I totally believe in this team. When they were down 3-0, I did not give up on them. I knew the game was not close to being over.
I like how the couple nay sayers on the thread disappearted when they started coming back.
Anxiously awaiting Sunday.
Go Blue!
"Disappearted"
I hope they stay disappearted. Naysayers like them that wave their personal white flags of surrender when the game has barely started? They can go find another team to cheer for!
I think I missed a reference somewhere, what is this about pizza? I know they were talking about it during the broadcast tonight but I don't know the origin..
Catcher Lauren Connell was blogging for MGoBlue this season. This is the explanation of all things pizza from the team itself.

as a Rangers fan, I was ready to open up a vein tonight (just a pathetic effort).
I'm still not going to sleep tonight, but the game did cheer me up quite a bit.
We just kept pouring it on!
I will never watch a softball game. Cool if they win a national championship though
You are what Red Lightning is to FSU, but to this blog.

And here, I'd watch competitive paint drying if Michigan were competing in it

No, Sherwin Williams
Voltron?
iPhone is the current repeat troll, although I can't confirm he's the same guy as Voltron. Probably, though.
What is Voltron? I know the 5 lions cartoon. I don't think not liking a sport is a bad thing, the Tigers could be in the World Series and I wouldn't watch. I just don't like the sport. I do think it would be cool if they won though, that's a memory that will last their lifetime. And this is bad? I can only name Jenny Finch as a softball player. Sheesh, sorry. Didn't think I made fun of the girls or slighted the sport at all. I think with the amount of money I have given the university I can be indifferent on watching them play a secondary sport while still wishing the same girls luck.
Also I have followed the blog since we hired Rich Rod, people have said worse. Saying I have lasted since 2014 is I had no idea you were internet famous dumb. That's like asking someone what they are going to do with their Mgopoints. Not every person follows the secondary sports to such a degree that if they don't watch "they're an asshole" it's called the offseason for a reason.
Thanks for calling me an asshole for saying I won't watch a softball game though, then wishing them luck. You got that going for you.
CONGRATS GIRLS WIN THE THING
What did you expect? Your comment was the equivalent of attending a wedding reception and making a toast saying "I don't know why anybody would get married, but good luck anyhow."
I have zero interest in soccer as a sport, but if Michigan's soccer team was having success and a thread was created to celebrate it, the last thing I would think of doing would be to post a comment saying "I just don't like the sport." If I did, I would expect the same reaction to my comment that yours got and I sure as hell wouldn't complain about it, either.
Hey thad, go make fun of Beilein's recruiting.

Is there some rule that only blind idiots are allowed to umpire the WCWS or something? I swear, I wouldn't want these jokers umpiring my rec league games. I thought the jokers last night were bad and then the ones from tonight may have even been worse.
I know umpiring is tough and all, but good grief this is the World Series. Shouldn't these be the best softball umps in all of NCAA or something? Or did they just drive down to WalMart and grab some people out of the parking lot?
I had questions about that last night myself, but then I realized how it usually happens. Years ago, you see, on a segment of "Headlines" on "The Tonight Show", one of them happened to be something like "Blind Cabbie Forced To Abandon Driving" and all Leno could say is that finally he could return to his day job as an umpire. That sounds about right to me.
through the rest of the WCWS.
I'm really starting to appreciate the benefit of having two ace pitchers that throw from opposite sides. Not only do the hitters have to adjust to a different style of pitching (strike out vs. quick out), but they are getting complete opposite views of the ball. It is so much easier to throw the other team's offense out of its rhythm with that tag team.
That's to say nothing of our offense, which is spectacular from 1-9. You've shut down the best hitter in the nation? That's alright....our next 2 girls will wreck you.
EDIT: And by shut down, I mean kept Romo to a hit and a couple sacrifices. That's as close to "shut down" as you can get with her.

Why not "girls"? If I was talking about the baseball team, I would call them "boys."
Girls isn't misogynistic. They are in college QED they are young QED they are girls.
Ladies is equally fine, but I don't see a problem with either one.
Rocking their peers and putting suckers in fear . . .
