Exactly! People call me a bleeder because I'm critical of Earley. I'm not criticizing him just to be negative, I'm just telling it like it is and calling out things that need to be called out.


I don't mind criticism of decisions and such. It's the screaming of him being an idiot, a moron, the stupidest person we've ever hired, etc etc

That's lazy, tacky, and only based on emotions.

The same with players. If you can't articulate what someone is doing wrong, don't stoop to slandering their character or intelligence.

This. It's OK to be of the opinion that Earley is not going to get the job done, but calling names and "shouting" on the internet isn't going to change anything for the better. People can disagree without being disagreeable.


Its also OK to acknoledge that UGA has a good team. Yeah it sucks to lose to UGA and look like crap in MBB against UH. Not an optimal sports day. The sun will rise tomorrow.

Earley looks so lost and clueless in pressers that it's sickening

Georgia has outscored us by a combined score of 17-6 in 2 home games so far. Consequently, we have dropped to 1-4 in SEC play and lost 5 consecutive SEC home games, dating back to last year's home series finale against Missouri in which we were swept by a combined score of 23-8. Hopefully, we can salvage this series and snap a 5-game SEC home losing streak with a home win tomorrow.

You just now figured this out. It's the reason I have not watched one in more than a year.

Edit, wait, that's not exactly correct. I did want to see what he said after the Friday Mizzou game last year after his horrible management. And it just frustrated me and I said, never again.

Once again on here it's always the ump's fault, yet the opposing team seems to do so good with the same ump.

2 things can be true.
1. The home plate ump was terrible.
2. A&M was also terrible.

Every game of the season?

Today's home plate ump called a pitch in the dirt a strike. It was called a strike, The batter did not chase and the ump gave no indication it was called such because he believed the batter swung. That is terrible and completely unacceptable in my book. I acknowledge when blue helps the Ags, on iffy calls, not as much as I moan about it going the other way but that is simply the nature of fandom. The SEC is college baseball at its highest level, the players and fans deserve better. Birmingham gives us lip service.

Let's agree the call was awful. How did it affect the end result?

*****ing and moaning about the umpire when the Ags lose is a tradition unlike any other.

Win or lose, the quality of and the state of the umpiring in the SEC is abysmal. It did not directly affect the result last night but it is still worth pointing out and discussing. The pitch literally BOUNCED. For a league that likes to think of itself as THE premier baseball conference, it needs to take the lead and drive the issue that the officiating is substandard....because even though it may not have affected the end result last night it does/has/will affect the result of other games and that is a travesty.

Oh, no, can't speak truth here. Otherwise you are branded a sip troll.

I don't get the people that are all in on Earley come hell or high water, no matter how the team performs.

Coaches are evaluated on results. That should be the only thing that coaches are evaluated on, IMO.

Not on how much we love them, or how bad it might look to others if we fired a coach early in his tenure.

In the immortal words of Al Davis, "Just win, baby."

Earley seemingly has everything he needs to be successful. It's time to be successful.

There's no one all in on Earley right now. Not sure why you would think that one.

I hate to say that a Sunday game in late March is a must win… But today feels like it's a must win.

Can't afford to start 1-5 with the gauntlet we are about to face in a few weeks

Many fan bases gripe about umps. The SEC as a whole has really bad umps. It's not just our games. And no one blamed the loss on the ump.

One only needs to watch baseball casually to realize this is not a trait exclusive to Aggies. *****ing and moaning about Blue is as old as baseball itself. There is a reason sites like UmpScorecards exist despite that in general MLB umpiring ranges from solid to excellent. Even so there is still a constant shrill for a ABS system (Robo umps) in MLB.

OK, fair enough. Would robo ump's change any result this year?

I've already answered this question more than once, why do you keep asking it?
