BSB: Friday 2/16 Game Thread - #3 TCU at Grand Canyon

[OmniscienceFrog]

Literally all of them.

Yep, 299 of them it turns out.

I’m just waiting for the first meltdown from the chicken-littles when someone commits an error, or we give up a home run. Or God forbid, a loss or two.

It’s like Spring doesn’t begin until that happens

 

[full house frog]

I hope we win but my focus is still on basketball right now. Good series to open with.

Go Frogs!!!

 

[Froginbedford]

We should host a tourney and invite GCU, ECU, and ACU.

And don't forget Tarleton State and Texas Southern...both TSU

 

[BrewingFrog]

Ugh. I was hoping that FrogVision was safely dead, with a stake hammered into it's low-bandwidth heart.

I can't get into baseball until March Madness is over.

I can easily get into CBB in November when football season is going on, but baseball I just can't.

Oklahoma State played their season-opening series at GCU last year. They lost 2 of 3 and were actually lucky not to have been swept.

GCU is an interesting place. For decades a tiny private Christian college in a bad part of Phoenix, it reorganized as a for-profit institution run by the former CEO of University of Phoenix. Ton of online students whose dollars are funding an immense amount of construction, sparking urban renewal in the area.

It's actually a VERY interesting case-study in funding higher education. Pretty cool place.


I hope we smoke 'em!!

Wonder if they'll draw a big crowd. Breaking in a brand new stadium and offering free admission for ALL for the entire season!

You know what drives me nuts about that article?

The description of the ballpark as one of the top on the "west coast".

Maybe I'm splitting hairs, but the coast is a state and a half away. Calm down writer.

Thanks for posting that. Was thinking about what would have been at least a minimum 10 hour day to catch one weekend game, but not if all the tickets are free, Probably be a madhouse.

And no thanks to a 3 hour drive home after eating "Thunder Nachos".

 

[satis1103]

Yeah I guess he took this literally.

Haha, you're AroundWorldFrog. I'm AroundMetroplexFrog. Where's that?

 

[Kyle101011]

William & Mary is 3 outs away from upsetting #21 Clemson. 4-1 going to the 9th.

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

Haha, you're AroundWorldFrog. I'm AroundMetroplexFrog. Where's that?

Basically due south of Phoenix not far over the mexican border on the Sea of Cortez. A cheap man's cheap seaside resort. Only half a state and part of a country away.

Mexican "resort" area on the coast on Sea of Cortez just south of Arizona by about 60 miles...20 years ago when I lived in Scottsdale it was the up and coming place to vacation in Mexico for people from the state - not sure if it ever got to actually be the place or is still an up and comer.
