Here are some quick thoughts about Mike Martin, Jr. and the possibility that he could become the head coach at South Alabama: First up, congratulations to “Meat.” Even if he doesn’t get the job, the fact that he’s being interviewed is great and shows that other schools know he’s doing a good job coaching up [...]

Yeah, last night’s meltdown against TCU looked bad. There are a plethora of meltdown Tweets, Facebook statuses and posts today. FSU fans will call for Mike Martin‘s head on a platter. They’ll scream for Shouppe to be fired. Rightfully so. I’m not arguing that there are problems. I understand the frustration that surrounds the FSU [...]

I’ve told you before, I’m a New York Mets fan. As a Mets fan I’m used to lots of disappointment. Sure there was 1986, but then there was also the implosion of the “dominant” team in 1988 to the Los Angeles Dodgers. I guess my point is that I don’t expect much from them usually, [...]

I don’t know about you, but I’m proud of this FSU Baseball team. Sure, I was ready to eat Tums on Sunday when it looked like the Noles might try to give away a trip to Omaha to Vanderbilt. But, in the end, they pulled it together and advanced in one of the most unlikely [...]

What? – The 2010 Tallahassee Super Regional When? – Friday, June 11 (Noon), Saturday, June 12 (1pm) & Sunday, June 13 (1pm, if necessary) Who? – Our beloved, suddenly overachieving, Florida State Seminoles vs. the Vanderbilt Commodores Tips That Will Help You Survive: I thought that I’d throw together a quick primer for fans that [...]

First and foremost, it’s Memorial Day. If you’re off, enjoy the day off, but take a moment to think about those that died for our country while serving it. Now, back to the Noles. Is there anything, and I mean anything, better than writing about how awful a team is and then looking like a [...]

As I said before the opening game for the Noles in the ACC Tournament on Twitter today, “Is it too early to evacuate the FSU Pitching Staff ahead of the Canes?” Anybody that watched FSU Baseball this year knew what was coming. Anybody that watched the Miami series earlier in the year knew it was [...]

I’m not writing full articles lately, as you can see. So here is some of the stuff that’s been running through my head. FSU to the SEC talk is boring. Super-conference talk is boring. Hasn’t anyone learned that monopolies are generally a bad thing? If anything we should be working towards getting rid of conferences [...]

A few thoughts about last night’s game: I took a survey about FSU Baseball last night. Some graduate students asked for the help. Their professor obviously doesn’t speak English well, nor does he understand that I don’t have “a relationship” with the FSU Baseball Team. My happiness is not derived from them, nor do I [...]
