Yo @BigTenNetwork let your color guy know that Nebraska’s pitching coach’s name is not, and hasn’t ever been, Brad Childress. My god.

@dbechek1 @TheHittingVault Eyes? It’s maybe inside, maybe chest high or lower when it crosses.

This just makes me really sad. How do we stop this type of thing from happening? Parents. Please. Think about your kids. They are watching everything you do and say. This guy should never be allowed on a field again let alone coaching young athletes.

@VinnysCorner1 If you don’t choose the rifle, the rifleman stands out of range of your defense and puts you down. So although it isn’t the most efficient defense, you’ve gotta take the rifle for any chance at all. Then give me 5 silverbacks over 3 grizzlies, but a close call. TLDR, I’m dead.

Dudes, can we debate this??? 😂

@dekker @TomFrederi78163 @wiaawi “Tough shit” translates to kids giving up baseball in order to train for basketball and football.

@TomFrederi78163 @wiaawi Tough shit. They’ll survive.

I, for the life of me, will never understand the @wiaawi having SPRING baseball. 80% of the games are in the 30s and 40s. It’s the most no-brainer thing of all time to have baseball played in the state where summers are 80 and sunny.

@thomaslhorrocks Imagine not being able to mentally expand an example because you’re too busy trying to make a political statement.

Imagine believing that Candy Crush is more significant driver of lower birth rates than skyrocketing costs of healthcare, childcare, and housing. Remarkably tone deaf.

Senator Ben Sasse, nearing the end of his life with the utmost grace and dignity, reflects on the foundations of patriotism. It begins with the devotion to your family, your neighbors, your faith, and your community. That’s the core idea of the American spirit - and the source of all the blessings America has today.

@fishstark @BenSasse Fish thought he cooked with this one, but he didn’t realize people have brains and would push back on his faulty logic.

All right @BenSasse, let's make a bet. Let's divide the US in half. I'll let you pick which half. In your half, you ban Candy Crush. In my half we institute 16 weeks of paid parental leave, universal childcare, & a restored child tax credit. Let's see which has more babies.

Be honest — when's the last time you were GENUINELY happy as a sports fan? 😤 Not just relieved. Not just "well at least we won." Actually, jump out of your seat, hug a stranger, can't stop smiling HAPPY. 🏆 When was it?

@_lishoon @I80Club Pryce, Maric, Sam, Terran, Ubel.

@ThePhilliesPod @kylecorwintakes Shorter or longer bases depending on your team makeup would be wild

@kylecorwintakes I love the idea of basketball adopting this rule. -different lengths for 3 pt line -no 3pt line -adding a 4pt line -wider or smaller paint area Would be chaos.

MLB ballparks are hilarious compared to other sports A 37-foot wall in left? Sure 314 feet to right? Why not Catwalks that are in play? Obviously Ivy on outfield wall? Gotta have it I love this beautiful, quirky game

@HuskerTillDeth @StephenRoussea2 @tresjel @Sean_Callahan Found the artist who did the renderings! Tough look on recent reposts, btw.

A look at what Memorial Stadium will look like following the $600 million proposed "Big Red Rebuild" project.

@tresjel @Sean_Callahan Also, how are you supposed to get there? Jump?

@Sean_Callahan This part is low-budget and janky. Looks like high school stadium bleachers.

@TavTone @AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 1 umpire, 2 for bracket play. We aren’t in it for profit. It’s volunteer so that elementary and middle school kids can play competitive ball. Teams take their own video and do with it what they wish. I recognize that the high school, PG, PBR, AAU model is quite different.

@EForShort02 @AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 12 teams x $700 = 8400 $120/field x 18 games (each play 3) = $2160 $75/ump per game (3 umps?)= $4050 Total is $6210 Your profit without concessions = $2190 Now do you pay your staff? Do you conduct evaluations, send reports to colleges, operate during the HS seasons?

Bringing your spouse and kid to watch your child play in Milwaukee this weekend? That will be $239.01 for admission… What are we doing!? #AAUBingo

@TavTone @AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 $120/game field rental, $75/game per ump. 4 fields, generally 8-12 teams. Individual orgs carry the insurance. Security at a youth baseball tournament? We live different lives.

@EForShort02 @AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 How much do you pay per field? And how many fields? How many umps per game? How much your insurance? How much for security? Concessions is always kept by the facility

@TavTone @AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 This is fair if that level of complaining about a $300 entry fee is what you experience. Totally understand it has to be either entry fee or gate fee to cover expenses and time. $700 has seemed to be a nice landing spot for us. 3-4 game tournament. Make xtra $$ at concessions.

@EForShort02 @AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 Because teams already cry about $300 entry fee. At this point they want events to be free not understanding the cost to operate and function. Plus the cost of facilities has sky rocketed!

@AlamoCityHoops1 @pwfree23 Super honest question as a tourn admin myself (baseball). We’re actively discouraging people from coming to watch and cheer for youth and high school athletics because of $30 weekend passes to watch 3 basketball or baseball games. Why not just get your dollars in the entry fee?

@pwfree23 Call out the event and tag the platform sir. We have people complain at my events when I do a $15/$20 day pass & $25-35 wknd pass!

@RHULEROFNEB I trust Fred pretty explicitly after the last three years of roster construction, but can’t say I’m thrilled with another big who plays primarily below the rim. But this is clearly the model. I will admit Fielder has more bounce.

PF Sam Orme will likely be the Berke replacement. Orme has a strap on him. 40% clip from 3 on 121 shots 🔥 If we can get Orme and Drew Fiedler for our 4 and 5 👀

@wjeffpetty 1999, at least. Last year I played LL rules (foot on base, no steals until ball crossed the plate) was 8u coach pitch.

Excuse my ignorance on this. What year did we start letting 9 year olds take leads & steal bases? When we were 12 foot had to be on the base. Stealing at 9 years old & taking leads might be the dumbest thing to date I have seen on a baseball field at any level.

@StanKeybox @RobinWashut Pre-freshman year at UCLA he was on a lot of draft boards to be a 1 or 2 year player and go to the league. Those dreams don’t evaporate. I’m not saying I think he’s an NBA player, but he and his agent likely disagree.

Nebraska saw its first surprise departure on Wednesday when forward Berke Buyuktuncel officially entered the NCAA Transfer Portal. Here's what I know about the situation and what it means for the Huskers going forward… 🌽🏀 🔗: on3.com/teams/nebraska…

@ThePantryGang @Hoogie52 @JackMitchellLNK Eh. You can speak for yourself but don’t speak for 14,000.

@Hoogie52 @JackMitchellLNK We won't chant fuck Berke like you all did with Pryce.

If he ends up in conference, I literally don’t I think I will have the ability to cheer against him. I can tell you one thing, I won’t handle it like the Iowa fan base. I don’t think anyone will.
