Glad we get Rice again. Would love to see those crybabies on their message board have another meltdown....and for us to go to the Supers, of course.

Soggy, limp, overcooked Rice, at that.

This is the point in the night when my insomnia kicks in, though I'd check some scores. Wow.

Let's enjoy this ride, because we may never again see a string of games as crazy as these have been.

Rice played 29 innings of baseball today, and have less than 11 hours turnaround to eat/sleep/prepare for a championship game. We should take care of business and set ourselves up for a death match in Baton Rouge.

Well, I bailed at 11:45. See I got my wish and extra. The WHOLE team is burnt.

Rice has 4 arms spent in yesterday's games and rubber leg fielders. Throw in the starters from Friday and Saturday, not much in the pen for Monday. Not getting cocky, but I like our odds.

[Zeebart21]

How many minutes is he in now?

Brian

Holy Cow, I couldnt make it past 11:30. Hmmmm, lets put it this way. It'll take alot more than Desitin ointment to cure what ails old Graham this morning!!

I thought about that after I tried to go back to sleep. The game's over a little after 2:00, you have to shower, change, have a brief meeting, feed the kids, get them across town and to bed. 3:30-4:00 AM.

How much do you let them sleep, before you get them up, get them showered, feed them, have a team meeting, get to the field to dress and warm up? Coaches and players like to keep to their pre-game routines, and no sport is more superstitious than baseball. I'd be surprised if they get more than 5 hours sleep, and those hours were well outside of their normal sleeping routine.

I won't say anything to anger the gods of baseball, but I am very interested in seeing how Rice holds up. If they can compete today, they will have greatly increased my respect for them.
