1  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: The Lady Vol Mafia is certainly ?special? on: Yesterday at 08:18:06 PM
I don't know him from Adam  ( ), but to be fair, he is not at all taking the side of the fans. If anything, he is exposing them as the idiots they are.


He NEVER misses an opportunity show NEGATIVITY about YT sports, NEVER!
Also, he askes some of the most inane questions at press conferences of any supposed "journalist" ever
Hell, Jimmy is better than the square of Sparks and Adams put together and he freaking SUCKS!

This just embarrassing. Now more than any other reason, I want CKC to win big just so someone can follow up with these morons.

Congrats......but. If they don't learn to hit good pitching they won't be around long. Their team batting average against SEC teams this season wasn't very good.
Having attempted to hit "radio balls" it is not as easy as you might think
Due to the shorter distance you have much shorter reaction time to read the pitch and swing
Back when I played there were essentially just two pitches, now typically there are 3-4
4  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Dafuq 3 0 loss to vandy on: May 13, 2024, 07:35:45 EDT
Did we throw this one on purpose? I was listeing on the radio while driving all over Knoxville yesterday (went to see Mom with my brother at her rehabe facility, then went to Dad's assisted living home and took him to see her, then took him back to his place, then back to their (sadly empty except when I or a sibling visit) house, packed up, drove back to Huntsville, all while listening to the 3 0 debacle on the radio.

I think the Vols only had 3 hits, all by the same guy.  Vandy scored early also.

Im like...WTF...I know the Vols can hit better than that.

Anyone have any theories on the loss?  I know I often hear "sometimes it just goes that way in baseball" so maybe it was just one of those days.


But could it be that Coach V wasn't trying that hard, kind of like how the bball team got embarassed in the SECT?


Side note...the baseball radio broadcast has only a broadcaster, no color guy, no sideline reporter, but does a very good job of descringin the play by play.  No chatter about strategy or "what will the coach do", etc.  In fact, I will say that might even be desireable for football and basketball. Maybe they should give it a try (Not with Kesling though!)


No, sometimes good pitching overpowers bats
It happens
However, if I were Tony, I would have had the umpires check his glove as the bois have been proven to CHEAT

Kay's Ice Cream with the big ice cream cone outside was a S Knoxville icon, and had been since the 50s I think, when I moved to Knoxville in 1982.  Kay's closed (sadly) during the pandemic, but the ice cream cone is still there, and there is a Thai restaurant where Kay's used to be, but it does serve ice cream of some sort.   

So who won between the Louis brothers, or did they both go out of bidness?   
I worked at Kays on Magnolia as a freezer boy out of High School, till I joined the AF

Go Lady VOLS!

8 in a row over those clowns. Vandy boiz haven?t beaten us in 3 years.

The General was hired with the directive to ?even the score with Vanderbilt?. 100 years later, Tony has picked up that torch.
AMEN!

11  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: BaseVOLS #1 on: May 06, 2024, 07:50:30 EDT


We need to avoid the No.1 ranking curse.
Bet we aren't the #1 seed no matter how we play the last two series
Our RPI is #8 currently
So being #1 now doiesn't mean squat or even the square root of squat

Impressive interview
She is aware of her stepping into the arean that is filled with high expectations
I think Retirement Rick has been a big help and most likely will continue to be

16  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Well that was a fun inning. on: May 05, 2024, 03:05:13 EDT
UF threw 73 pitches in that inning? Holy crap, I've never heard of such a thing.

Greg Maddux used to occasionally throw that many in 9 innings.
that is the kind of inning that gets us out of the tam wid slump
We started hitting singes again
Really didn?t use te bullpen hard
That overuse of e pen hurt the crocs bad
Left their in way too long due to that overus

18  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: BaseVols win game one of double header 6-2 over Florida.* on: May 04, 2024, 12:35:52 EDT
Both Vol teams do that. The softball team is a little too aggressive, also.
Really, till today we had been much improved over previous years
Cost us at least 2 runs in game 1

Having been in the area North, NW and West of the new city to be in 2022, I agree with their plan for the new city
The worst is that home of drunk out of their minds college a couple miles to the West
21  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Awaka to Arizona, Aidoo to Arkansas on: May 01, 2024, 07:19:50 EDT
waka waka will be missed.  damn free agency
Blame Aidoo
Reports were that he was staying, which caused Awaka to enter, then Aidoo shocked Barnes by entering the portal

In any case, while I will miss Awaka, who I loved his play (and the "look in his eye" at KY this year) I think we improved with the exchange
22  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Prove to me you have lived in Tennessee on: May 01, 2024, 06:45:51 EDT
When I first moved to East Tennessee in 1982, there were billboards everywhere in S Knox County that said "Water is for washing, Dickel is for drinking" and it showed a country gent sitting in an old school washtub drinking Dickel from the bottle.  That sure did seem appropriate for S Knox County somehow!   


Well, S Knox County has always been a bit "different" 
23  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: UT tied for 1st in the SEC in drafted QBs since 1967 on: May 01, 2024, 12:18:35 EDT
Kinda crazy that only Peyton, Shuler and Dobbs done much at the next level. Maybe Bobby Scott. I expected more of them to do better than they did at the time. A lot of it has to do with luck and location.
Holloway won the Grey Cup
I?d consider that ?much?
24  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: UT tied for 1st in the SEC in drafted QBs since 1967 on: April 30, 2024, 11:23:05 EDT
Holloway was not drafted as a QB
Which is why he ended up on the Canadian FL
25  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Awaka to Arizona, Aidoo to Arkansas on: April 30, 2024, 04:15:48 EDT
If anyone cares.
who?
