@oukeith84@themdawgs3 We didn’t sht the bed. We lost 5 SEC games by a single run. We win three of those and we win 3 more conference series. I can point to you the exact 1-2 and 2-2 counts where crappy sec plate ump calls of ball changed all 5 of those games.
The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.
And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.
Here is what they are discovering:
Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.
Then they found the grocery stores.
Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.
The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.
They finally understand why we do not have trains.
We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.
Why would we need trains.
The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.
Welcome to America!
The greatest country on earth.
@billyliucci When you recruit to a small park for players that are geared to hit homers IN that small park….you struggle mightily when you can’t generate offense outside of the long ball. Georgia CAN hit but appear lacking in fundamentals & plate discipline.
@LionGolfDawg@noahdarling_ Exactly. You can spot the locals a million miles away. This is nothing more than a weekend city arts festival to most of them.
@Operator037@GaSportsFreak1 Oklahoma made Oklahoma look like world beaters. You were a non factor. Take the L and enjoy your inflated cracker box home run stats and “swag”.
@t_maples We are still playing with house money. Pressure and expectations fully on Georgia. They have the talent edge but we are the hottest team in country for last 3 weeks. I do think we must win tonight to avoid their ace during an if necessary.
@imabr47@RedPantsUGA He will be doing it from his house. Bad fundamental baseball. Typical UT blowhard and hooray for cycle against depleted bama arms. Yawn.
My favorite non Sooner at bat of the entire post season. This clown A crap from this ut headcase short stop is laughably bad. All flash and his terrible fundamentals cost them a run later in game by refusing to yield to LF. Pimpwalk home hotshot..
My thoughts after 3 months in the US/Texas🇺🇸:
- Americans are way more extroverted than Europeans
- Talking to strangers is normal here
- My first H-E-B trip felt like Boris Yeltsin seeing an American grocery store
- Some food is more artificial, but the amount of choices is insane
- You can still eat healthy. You just have to choose it
- High risk, high reward is real
- Way more people are entrepreneurial
- People dream bigger than in Europe, and they actually execute
- Obv not everyone is smarter, but the smart people are world-class
- Successful people here are way more down-to-earth. In Europe, successful people care about status and can be arrogant
- Cars. Enough said
- Americans have perfected artificial sweets
- There’s still more freedom here than in Europe
- One thing I didn’t expect: some Americans talk down on America
- As an outsider, that’s weird, because imo it’s still the greatest country on Earth🇺🇸🇺🇸
@imabr47@CollegeBSBNews Well we can talk about the head case now not giving way to his left fielder and allowing a run to score or terrible decision to throw to 3rd in first loss to Georgia. Bad fundamentals but he is soooo swaggy….
@UGAdynastyB2B You can feed the trees at home with fly balls to right …but you can feed deeznutz into the elimination bracket outside the 315 right field line cracker box. Our bats didn’t miss - 5 line drives directly at your defense. Keep talking
