The AP is doing a bunch of blowharding. Acting like they have the scoop on everything when the truth is they don’t know shit. And 99% of that column was not only old news, but with the light speed at which things are moving and changing, it’s very likely the whole thing is worthless. There are top secret, desperate negotiations and decisions going on behind closed doors right now. There is infighting and backbiting going on within the conferences and within the schools themselves. It’s a feeding frenzy of unrest and unhappiness. The AP tries to print yesterdays news as if it were significant, and ignore the rumors and bits of swiped information popping up hourly, which are probably closer to the truth. They still lump A&M with the Pac 10. But if the Big 12 implodes A&M is coming to the SEC. And at this moment the Texas – Pac 10 package is in danger of exploding in their faces. Hold your breath people. This aint even started good yet! RTR!
People let’s get behind our baseball team and our rookie head coach. You are witnessing a once in a lifetime occurance. Something you can take pride in and brag about already regardless of how much further it continues. This team has the worst record in the super regionals. Just a month ago its carcass was left dead and rotting on the side of the road after losing for a 2nd time to Samford and compiling a losing record in the SEC. Since then it has bludgeoned its way through 15 games against the nations elite teams all ranked in the top 20, including SEC west champ Auburn, SEC season champ and 3rd seeded Florida, 8th seeded Ga. Tech and now ACC Atlantic division champ Clemson. They are one unbelievable win away from the CWS with 2 chances to do it. This is a team that coach Saban would be proud of. Give em hell Alabama! RTR!
