Blake Allemand is unleashing a personal vendetta on LSU

Aggie shortstop Blake Allemand has something against LSU.

And whatever it is, he's channeling it.

Two games into the 'series of the year,' Allemand is making general chaos everywhere he goes in Alex Box Stadium. His Cloverfield rampage began Thursday night with three hits, one walk and one run scored in a "losing effort." But he returned Friday for more.

In the ongoing second game Allemand has made the greatest impact this side of Ryan Hendrix, tallying two hits, an RBI (then the go-ahead run), a run scored and a #SCTop10 nominee to help stymie LSU's speedy offense. Observe:

Does this include his boneheaded base running? Great play though.

I do wish that were an option.

Ryne Birk's zero range and Hendrix getting tired have zero to do with putting together two videos of Blake Allemand for an A&M sports media website, just to head y'all off at the pass.

Is part of your job irritating the subscribers? Because that is what you do by posting stories like this. You could easily wait until after the series or at least the game. IMHO.

Write about our terrible second base defense. That needs some changing up.

I'm sorry, is he playing right now or did our pitching and defense collapse after a post about a hitter who is STILL killing it this weekend?

Not the point.

You're missing the point completely. Post about Aggie baseball doing good -----> Aggie baseball starts doing bad.

That + the Arkansas story, and it isn't hard to figure it out.

Just baseball etiquette. Just like you don't talk about a no hitter during a no hitter. Know your audience. Respect your audience.

Wait until we actually win something. Texags has been gloating and running their mouth lately. They should act like we have won something before.

It's two weeks in a row, and I know you are a baseball fan... you know how many are superstitious. It shouldn't be surprising at all.

We are publishing great plays from the game for those that missed it. That's hardly "gloating and running our mouth." Please find something else to take out your frustration on.

You just don't do it in baseball. Of all people you should know that Gabe.

Come on Stew, everybody that is on the baseball board is actively following the game. It's not hard to wait until the game is over. Baseball has etiquette.

Not just to piss everyone off, no.

I am not superstitious, but a bunch of baseball fans are. Just sayin' , right or wrong. Part of the enjoyment of baseball is because of some of the superstitions. Rally beer anyone?

Writing an article that pisses off your audience and then telling them their beliefs don't matter or talking down to them is not a good way to grow your fan base.

That's enough from me. I'll get off my soap box.

That's not what he said. No need to make straw man arguments.

FWIW, it was staff behavior like this that made me cancel my subscription years ago here and kept me from renewing. Not the superstition stuff. The smugness.
