    Just to get a little chatter going: thanks for sticking it out and writing the previews. Baseball’s a funny game and you never know what can happen, but they’d need a Major League-like turnaround to get back to the Promised Land. I’ve not been able to see a single game. So, I just read on here and check scores and watch the gametracker when it’s at an hour I can see it. Thanks for keeping it fresh.

    We get two games on regular tv this weekend. That’s something.

    So much for my presumption that GoPack.com should be believed.

    Rodon vs Crownover today.

    Stop me if you’ve heard this one before – Rodon gtting no run support.

    In other news, Taco Bell will still give you the shits.

    Pack draws first blood. 1-0 mid 4th. Rodon has his run, hope he can make it stand up.

    E6,7 and 4. Am I forgettin’ anyone?

    Whoever ran off DBP, needs to have his ass kicked. I can’t even remind him where Turner’s eventual digs are gonna be. 🙂

    Unfortunately, yes. E2 early on, on the throw that didn’t get cut off.

    I was wondering about DBP earlier today in fact. Miss his input.
    Perhaps his absence is the jinx.

    6-1 Final, ACC losing streak reaches double figures.

    Now I get to fill time before the F4 by watching the last couple of innings of the Os getting pasted again. They’re building a little losing streak of their own.

    ‘Dog – In spite of a rocky start, Tanaka looked pretty sharp last night for the most part, btw. When he gave up up the leadoff HR to the lesser Cabrera I thought he might go harikari though.

    Wufpacker, I really appreciate the effort you make to produce this information on a continuing basis. I do not have the ability to keep my head up when things get absurd. And absurd they have gotten.

    We were at least putting our version of “pressure” (meaning getting some people on base but not doing anything with it) through 4, but we went 3 and out for the next four innings. And the reality was as bad as it sounds….. an average little league team could have handled what we put into play.

    You would think the law of averages would come into play and something good would happen to these guys (you can’t lose them all – can you?), but apparently we used up our quotient last year. And have nothing to show for it other than a trip to Omaha, which admittedly was pretty cool, but now seems more like the latest chapter in the Wolfpack curse.

    Again, thanks for the info and I will be watching Sun and Mon. Why? Because it’s what I do. Year after year after……

    Same water, different rocks was my saying driving down the California coastal highway from Carmel…At least the views were pretty…baseball season has not been!

    ‘Have pre-season rankings and chatter of return trips to Omaha’,
    AND
    the *Our State* fail…somebody’s not handling the PR.
    in my company this amounts to “spend more time with the family”.

    Thanks for the kind words slim. Very much appreciated.

    Tied at 2 with Clemson after 6 in Sunday’s game.

    Pack takes a 3-2 lead to the 9th and…..
    Tack on 6 more in the 9th (hah…fooled ya).

    9-2 Pack going to bottom 9th.

    Great inning! It seems like the commentators are pulling for State.

    LOL…I think they feel sorry for us more than anything.

    Oh, definitely. Our losing streak is pitiable.

    I like 9-2 better than 9-4.

    Yep. We wouldn’t be us if we didn’t at least have to sweat it out a little bit.

    Pack Wins….theeeeee, Pack wins. (finally)

    9-4 final. Game 3 tomorrow at 7pm (hell, we have a shot at winning the series too)

    I would like to feel triumphant sometime, instead of this feeling of crumpled relief. But I’ll take it.

    Tell me that the streak ends today…hopefully a turning point.
