I suspect Eddie Van Halen did that a lot when they first arrived on the scene.

ETA: not music but similar, when Pistol Pete was a freshman at LSU, freshmen weren't allowed to play on the varsity team. Since the freshman game was played before the varsity on the same night, the LSU fans would come to the freshman game to watch Pete and not stick around for the varsity games.

Half the league’s facilities are a bus ride away. Why would they want remote places to travel to?


I think this is a big part of it as well. The spring training sites are relatively clustered in FL/AZ - meaning one team can play several other teams without a travel burden.

Side note: Boardwalk & Baseball was the GOAT Spring training site.

No need to be too specific. Maineri Berries will do.

. Those last 4 years were brutal.


"Brutal?"

How?

'21 - won a regional; made it to a super with a young team
'20 - Covid season (are we counting this season ell? Is it one of your four?)
'19 - won a regional: hosted a super
'18 - It was disappointing but losing to the eventual champs at their place isn't brutal.
I simply do not follow the CPM criticism parade. Guy was a great coach here.

I don't follow him but assuming he's "throwing players under the bus," other great coaches have done so - Saban and Spurrier both were notorious for this. Heck, there was a time among this fan base when applauded CPM for doing this very thing.

If he was such a difficult coach to play for, why did so many great players continue to the end of his tenure choose to play for him?

He owned his peer group while here (DVH, Bianco, State).

It was time for him to go and he did, so what's the problem?



Anecdotally, my guess is 95%+ of the Mexicans in Katy, Texas couldn't care less about America.

Thanks for the update.

That's one small announcement for man. One giant leap in program direction for mankind.

I can vouch for two votes for Paxton.

Lincoln was a dirt bag as was Michael King. If you're just talking oratory and pathos, heck throw in Adolf. Evil but skilled.

Maybe Ike's talk to the troops before D-Day should be considered.

ETA: I gave a few speeches to my kids when teens that merit honorable mention.
