Of course it was... He used an idiotic false equivalency to take a job at posters who have some pretty solid points though. That's why I asked him to stop.
Now, assume Josh had 6 CWS appearances in his 11 seasons. That's a better comparison and the reactions from this board would be quite different.
Believe it not, us old timers bitched about things like this long before the Internet existed.

If you remember the Bedlam Brawl in 1989 we can be friends.

I was there. I was standing on the landing of the stairs by the 1b side when it happened. What got overshadowed was the Ray Ortiz and Manny Cervantez had huge HRs in that game.

True. I can remember listening to games w my dad and after a loss him saying he wouldn’t listen to another OSU game until Ward made his hitters quit taking until they saw a strike. Of course we listened to the next game.Of course it was... He used an idiotic false equivalency to take a job at posters who have some pretty solid points though. That's why I asked him to stop.

I was sitting in the stands on the last row of the lower section in front of the walkway at Old Allie P and when our pitcher, Carl Meyers, plunked the Goon batter suddenly you see all Hell break loose and everyone was trying to run down to the first row to see all the fights in front of the dug out! Especially Bobby Perna beating the Hell out of Darron Cox, the mouthy Goon catcher!!! It was quite the experience!!!
Yes, plus Darron Cox was a mouthy pr**k who got what he deserved!!!

Those players rarely play college baseball anymore. Jackson Holliday would have been one, but even his uncle couldn't get him to stay.
Benge is rated as the #19 prospect in this year's MLB draft so that's about as good as you can hope for.
Yep. And 2 of our HS commits ranked in the top 100 as well.
You basically have the same three camps in this scenario every time-from Ford to Anderson to Boynton & on & on.
The Fire everyone camp. The it can only get worse camp if we move on from this coach. And the pragmatic
Didn't a bench guy named Wallberg tie it up late with a pinch hit 3 run shot too?
Man, fun times!
Greg Walhbergh hit the pinch hit 3 run shot!

Is there any chance Mayfield ever wears an OSU uniform?

Couldn't resist but I agree with your thought. I sure hope he wears a uniform while enrolled.
