Ah, poop.  I thought we had Arkansas next, but we're @A&M this weekend. 

Really wish the Ags hadn't gotten swept this past weekend.  They'll be hungry for blood and eager to take out their frustrations.  Hope our pitching can be consistent enough and the bats are lively enough to keep pace with the 2/3 goal.  The Ags remain unranked after the sweep by UT, but they clearly are a highly dangerous team capable of whupping us, especially in their house.  I don't think you can play UT that well at their place and be an unranked-quality team.

The ags are good.  They've really put it together over the past month of the season, after their rough start.  Horns might have swept them but only by 1 run each game. But I'm sure they're really glad to get LSU at home rather than on the road.  Should be a really fun series to watch.

I don't have a good feeling about it.  My nose is sniffing a series loss with a g2 or g3 win.

Could be.  On the one hand, they've been playing well.  On the other, their momentum has been broken.  It can't be easy, mentally, to come back from 3 losses against the one man and the one team that you've desperately wanted to beat worse than anyone else in your life.

What do you call a phobia where you're afraid of not having a glove while watching a baseball game in person, in case a foul ball rains down on you, because you'll probably hurt yourself if you try to catch it bare-handed? 

Cuz I have that.

The phobia is referred to as Low T.  It happens as you age, I hear.

Heh. I probably have it too.  I hate sitting in foul ball territory down the baselines.  That's why I only sit behind home plate now.

Raining down, no problem.

A frozen rope, 110 mph off the bat -- heading for my dome.  No bueno.

It's a brain stem response.
Embarrassed my daughter at her soccer game (she's the high school coach now). Watching a game from the stands, someone shanked one onto the walkway. I yelled, "KEEPER!", leapt up (ok, about 4 inches), and made a perfect high point save. Didn't realize what I'd done until my friend starting laughing.
Gotta think you're obligated to bring your mitt if you're sitting down the foul line. It's your civic duty.

If you're seated down the line, just be aware if the batter would pull the ball your way.  That's scary.  If he's the other-handed, you're fine.
