Nephew doing things yesterday
- Thread starter kougkurt
- Start date
Your nephew, Kurt? Dang... kid is a stud with a very bright future! You must be proud and rightfully so!
Couldn't have talked him into being a Coug, eh? Thirty lashes for you!
Sure tried. Lives in Plano TX.
His ex GF is a year older and plays soccer at Auburn. Young hearts.
Hmmmm, switch hitting #7 with power, is he a Mickey Mantle fan? Or does he not have any idea who that old timer was?
Nor candy to a candy shop. Kids a stud Kurt. What high school did he attend in Frisco?
That's great, Kurt. My son and I usually make the trip to Omaha each year now that I live in the Midwest. Maybe we'll get to see your nephew play in person in a couple of weeks!

Super Regional plans in Corvallis secured. Let’s go Tigers. #WDE
Are you down there in Corvallis, Kurt? And will you make it to Omaha if the Tigers win? I give OSU baseball fans a lot of credit. Last week when they barely beat an outmanned New Mexico State team (and were trailing at the time), they gave the NMSU pitcher a standing ovation for the gutty performance he displayed. Very rare and classy thing to do. Not sure their football fans are quite the same, but they are an educated group of baseball fans.

Sorry. Posted that wrong
Yes I’m down here now. I was wearing an Auburn hat and WSU jacket. Confused the hell out of Beaver fans. The older fans are cool as hell, students not as much.
Cousin and I had a long conversation with Wayne Tinkle, he was absolutely wasted, said he and Kyle Smith have the same agent and Smith isn’t long for the WSU gig. Every other word out of his mouth was a profanity, derogatory laced F- Bomb. Really surprised me
The big talk down here was what is wrong with the OSU National pitcher of the year Cooper Hjerpe. Didn’t go in game 1 nor was he on the bench. It was reported as an illness, but I have heard everything from Covid to being hungover. We’ll see if he goes today in a must win game 2.

Tinkle putting his District 81 vocabulary to use.
Doesn't Tinkle and that agent know that Smith's wife is from Chelan???
What is it about OSU basketball coaches and foul mouths? My cousin had season tickets behind the bench during the Craig Robinson Era and said he had never heard anyone utter so much profanity as Brobama. As an OSU fan, he was shocked and embarrassed.

Actually, yes. I was one of the play-by-play announcers for WSU baseball on KWSU when I was in college and traveled with the team on road trips. Honestly, I never heard Bobo utter profanity but I wasn't in the dugout or on the field....my virgin ears were safely distanced up in the radio booth. Now I did hear Bobo make some really cringeworthy comments about certain players– comments that might get him fired today. But naughty words? Not that I can remember.
p.s.....I did see him get into a heated argument with OSU coach Jack Riley one time when both of them were literally face-to-face with only the brim of their caps (in Bobo's case, he wore a helmet at all times) separating each other. Bobo actually headbutted Riley in the forehead with the helmet brim. Got tossed from the game but I'll never know how it didn't escalate into a brawl or at least a fistfight between the two coaches. I'm sure some pretty non-PG words were exchanged in that confrontation!

I was on the athletic maintenance crew for a year late in his tenure. We were there pre-game & post-game. I don’t think I learned any new words from him, but I learned new forms of those words and some combinations I’ve not heard before or since.
Can’t make it to Omaha, but a very competitive series. Not sure if Auburn has the sticks to win it all, but, pitching is VERY solid.
Two teams battled hard. Melton is clutch Lots of fun.

That was the best series of the NCAA super regionals by far. Two very closely matched teams and three very close games that could've gone either way. Happy for your nephew, Kurt. The Omaha experience is special. I"m used to having the SEC dominate football, but half of the teams in the College World Series this year are from the SEC as well.

I watched the Stanford UConn game yesterday......the salami that Cody Hoff hit was a BOMB. I have seen numerous games at Sunken Diamond, to hit one over the trees in left is pretty incredible. Speaking of Omaha, I was at the CWS back in 2004 when Cal State Fullerton beat Texas. The SEC talent in the stands was beyond impressive.
The SEC "talent" in the stands has maintained its high standards. My son and I have been to Omaha 3 of the past 4 years (no CWS due to Covid in 2020) and I can assure you that Mississippi State "talent" last year made me have to decide whether to watch what was happening on the field or what was all around me in the stands. I would have been justifiably slapped side of the head had my wife been with us!

BTW. Auburn drew Ole Miss. in the first game of the CWS and if they get by them, they get the winner of Stanford / Arkansas
Auburn went 1-2 against both Ole Miss and Arkansas during the regular season

You should have never gotten married and avoided this problem. Still time tho to divorce her.
