Spring Game TV Replay Open Thread

Submitted by M-Wolverine on

Well, whether you're watching it for the first time, reliving it from earlier in person or on the Net, or it's just the first of 20 times you're going to watch it (Brian, that means you), we can hash out what happened with a clearer and warmer view. Did what we thought we saw still hold true? Can we find out anything different?

Those who haven't seen the game can decide if the thread should be spoiler free. But I'm guessing if you're on here you've been taking in every soundbite from Brian and the boards.

And while we wait...Michigan Softball on BTN. 8-2 good girls, top of 4th, vs. dreaded Northwestern.

Edit: And just as I hit save, 8-5...sonofva....

You're up by 5 with two outs. What kind of strategy needed to be discussed?

"uh, yeah, don't shit the bed. K thx."

And as I say that, Northwestern scores.

by Womens Softball - Michigan v. NW on BTN here in San Diego. Even worse, the softball game is being called by Pam Ward. I'm about to kill myself!

I spent all day doing choirs and drinking so I'd be in a proper football state of mind and this is what I get.

Pam must die! She is even horrible calling softball.

EDIT: I'll leave my original post, but I see that I'm not the only one suffering. Someone it makes me feel better. Fuckin' 6th inning.

I swear I'm going to punch a baby if I don't get the whole spring game because of this crap (well, not crap, I support the ladies. But right now it's crap).

I have waited all day for it to be 8 and now im forced to watch softball. This has lead me to hit the bottle sooner then anticipated. Ill be blacked out before the spring game gets on tv. Nice homer by the way.

but that was a hell of a homer.

IMHE, the announcer actually sounds like a cross between Pam Ward and Joan Cusack. Or maybe it's just me.

My cable has 4 BTN channels why can't one of them show the football game? All 4 chans showing the same softball game. In the fall they will show 2 or 3 different football games at the same time on a Saturday.

If this wasn't tape-delayed, meaning the BTN could have scheduled it for ANY GODDAMN TIME IT WANTED, and decided to pin it to the back-end of a sporting event with no time limits.

Well played, BTN. Well played

This could be college women's nude jello wrestling and I'd still be screaming at the TV to "show me some mother f**king football!"

Who knew the last inning and a half of a softball game not involving drunk men stumbling around the basepaths on a Saturday could take as long as a 9 inning game of actual baseball?
