Stats is where it's at. TN/Tech Sports supporter. You don't know me, but I know you (your stats that is). I pray for each of my followers.

I use X mostly for sports outlet to talk about sports and how to apply things in life and I use Facebook for my preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Sometimes I want to lay down the hammer and preach on X too. I preach the grace of God. Sometimes preaching must happen.

@BoCamaro Thanks brother. Yes, this is a solution I'm building outside my, as you call it, 401K desktop job, which I love your posts about that. When I see your posts about business I try to soak it up...I'm hoping to lose the herd mentality.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

@TNTech_Baseball still the only OVC team to ever win a Super Regional game and the closest to reaching the CWS.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

If you post that you are humbled by something by posting what that something is, then you are no longer humbled.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

What does more money, more power, more fame, more sports success have in common?

Each will reveal more of what you already are.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

Bible truth:

Someone does not have to gain anything to lie.

A liar lies because they are liars.

Blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

Taking a break from mowing....wait. Did Mercer baseball not make the NCAA Regionals?

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

Was really hoping to have another OVC POY with JJ. His stats were elite but just didn't get the vote. Any other year, he wins.

Well, instead of having the last 5 of 10 OVC Player of Year awards, I guess @TNTech_Baseball will settle with winning it 40% of the time the past 10.

AMONG THE BEST! Tennessee Tech's Jorsixt Jimenez and Tyler Bennett were named to All-Ohio Valley Conference teams on Tuesday! RELEASE: https://t.co/3kJ5106kls #WingsUp

My hope in what I say on X is for followers/readers/viewers to first know that I am guided by the Lord Jesus Christ. I know some of my sayings and actions might be "strange" to you but I also know that my God hears my prayers. But He will answer according to His will not mine.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

First and foremost, as a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, I stand for @TNTech_Baseball coach Matt Bragga.

Knowing he is a fellow believer I will stand that ground first.

Now, I am sure there are things that you might not like about his coaching ways. But there....

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

...are probably things he doesn't like about your playing ways (or in my case, fan ways...ha). I feel part of my duty is to stand in the gap to honor a man of God while also lifting up the Tech program in the best way possible.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

Someone in comments said this player was injured. I am sorry for that. However, was well enough to play up to 4/21 and got 62 ABs. The equivalent position (C/DH) at
@TNTech_Baseball had ~150 ABs during the same time. Still played less than would have at Tech. Point still stands.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

Looks like the ole "I'm going to an "bigger" school to play baseball" snake has bitten once again. A former @TNTech_Baseball player literally accepted more money to NOT play more baseball. Played in less than half the regular season games. Think about that. You think you...

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

General advice.

A lawyer does not ask you a question they don't already know the answer to.

That goes for anyone that thinks that way.

If you are asked a question in those settings, know that they already know the answer.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

@bsbvault @TNTech_Baseball Thanks for responding. I do believe something has to be fixed. A more dialed in approach. Tech does get great players as evident with some of the players we have had the past few years. But, the big money/opportunity comes knocking and we lose players the past few years.

@bsbvault @TNTech_Baseball That might be true. They recruit so bad that 2 SEC teams and Tulane got (recruited) 3 of our players for this season. One being last year's OVC player of the year.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

@NOTtimcorbin @TNTech_Baseball I am sorry he was hurt. Was he an everyday(game) player?

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

But if you get something by vanity, it will be diminished.

Not my words. But the word of God.

"Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase." Proverbs 12:11

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

Don't let your ego get the best of you. @TNTech_Baseball players go where you're WANTED. Lest, you be regretting your decision and find out you were chasing the ALL-TIME vanity of vanities. Money. There are things that follow money and it will be a curse or it will be a blessing.

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

When something is from the Lord, it is a blessing and there are no sorrows added.

"The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it." Proverbs 10:22

[Brent Cross @LongLiveStats]

This is a real thing and it's truth. I've got to back my words with the word of God.

"For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." 1 Tim. 6:10
