    This is getting f#&%ing ridiculous.  Do a fund raiser to help the board run and get rid of this crap.

    I liked it at first, but trying to have a discussion when lots of people are posting is almost impossible now.

    I thought my browser was flaking out.  Phew, now I know they're just making room for advertisements.  :facepalm:   

    I have a college football podcast if any HB members are interested in listening. Tech issues start at 19 minutes and last for a minute or two but next ep will be better. Linky Also search "Pudgee and the Fridge" on Spotify, deezer, and soon Google podcasts. Thanks :)

    Man what Erstad did to Michigan is more amazing by the win.

    :dunno You'd have to ask the people that were all upset about us not beating a better team.

    The wins over Michigan (while they were in a down turn) are nice and it does show that NU can compete against good teams.  Michigan has rode hot pitching and hot bats the past 3 weeks, and also never had to play the #1 seed (Oregon State) in the first regional.  I give them a ton of credit for making it so far in the tournament.

    I have also used the "it's baseball" comment a lot in the past.  Unless the team is super dominant, which NU hasn't been historically, it's going to win games against better teams and also lose games against lesser teams.  That's where the "it's baseball" comment is valid.

    Michigan is 50-21 and Nebraska is 32-24.  Baseball isn't like every other sport.  The worst team in the league can beat the best team on any given night, but that's why they play 3 game series.  You can't just look at one game or one series and make any general conclusions.  Long Beach St. managed to go 1-0 against Michigan, but they finished 14-41. I think we would both agree that their one win doesn't make any big overall statement about the Long Beach program.  This is why people say "it's baseball".

    Big Ten is a crappy baseball league

    Baseball is a crappy sport to base the strength of a league

    edit: before this is taken as a "serious" comment, I'd like to clarify that I don't feel baseball is a fun sport for spectators (outside of overexcitable mothers....)  But I do understand that there are people who find fulfillment in watching paint dry and grass grow.  I don't wish to ruin their joy.  Carry on :)

    Baseball is a sport where 1 player (a pitcher) can keep the most mediocre of teams in contention. Not that Michigan’s lineup is mediocre. Just so happens Michigan has two pitchers just dealing and peaking at the right time

    Erstad did such a horrible job this year beating Michigan three times.

    I think the "hate" he gets is because he burned out on the job sometime in the two previous seasons and the product on the field reflected that. People were disgruntled over it - and chief among those was Erstad himself. He was very clear in his departure that if he felt he had done a better job, last year would have been his final season.

    Thank you @knapplc hopefully Bolt can improve on a solid foundation.

    Erstad's unevenness during the season was maddening--we've have a team that was able to go down to Baylor and win that series, but we couldn't win a series against Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, or Northwestern this season?

    I'm hoping we get a more even keel, high energy team from Bolt. One that dropping a series to a lesser team is more of an aberration or fluke, and not the standard. 

    Omaha is one win away from securing their first NCAA Regional birth

    Waldo, I wasn't aware that he had transferred. I talked to his Grandpa (my Uncle Mark) last year. They came up from Florida to go watch him play in Omaha. That was the last time talked to them.
