Of course I know this is not the baseball venue...but all week long the only thing I need to know if anyone is still alive on this site.
Repeating is a big victory and USC is to be congratulated. They played some excellent ball. It was like baseball is not played on the one and only true coast. But alas..

Yep...USCe did it again.
I also have to give the Gators kudos for once again making the finals. One thing those dang Gators have done, and I have to hand it to them, is come close to winning the coveted Triple in the decade...National Championships in football, baseball, and basketball.
They covered football (2006-2008) and basketball (2006 & 2007), got to the finals but missed it in baseball (2005). A powerful three year run for the lizards.
And, I give kudos to the SEC. They had a strong showing. For the third straight CWS championship. In the last ten seasons, the SEC has had seven teams in the finals. A strong baseball showing.

The first game was an "all time classic". Force play at home and the double play home and first was perhaps the greatest 1/2 inning I have ever seen in baseball!

Well donovan, there was a time a few years back when Fresno State won the NC by beating Georgia in the finals. So it can be done, keep the faith.
Of course in Sept you will suffer more disappointment.
Speaking of that, did you get your tickets yet? I'm still working on mine.

I need to find out where my kid is on the ticket thing...he needs to get hopping...And....that is a game I really want to see.....I keep thinking there is a paper tiger here in the bushes.
