Ya'll knew that I had to weigh in on this. aGAIN
Dear Chip Durham- you've lost whether or not you have to forfeit. Your team ran out of town like a bunch of rats. And now everyone in the college baseball world is going to know it.
So, you took pictures THREE HOURS before the game showing that the field was umplayable. I guess you never have haerd of drying compound, or drainage systems. Oh, not to mention the scientific phenomenon of evaporation.
So, you say the umpires in Birmingham AN HOUR AWAY couldn't make it. Well, that proves your point because we all know that weather is the same in all places. Just because it's raining in Jackson, well it must be raining in Memphis. Or Los Angeles by that logic.
But...but....you would have high school umpires doing the game. I guess Mr. Durham is insinuating here that the officials would be unfair and biased since they would be local. BUT you're not scared to play MSU. If you're team is as good as you claim, you should be able to overcome our hometown umpires. But hey, you ONLY lost by two runs in both games.
But...but...I don't want my team to get hurt. John Cohen had a well documented scrimmage on said field. To my knowledge, no one got hurt. Feelings or otherwise. He also took the greatest risk of getting someone hurt when he had the team roll around in the dirt. Not being critical, I thought it was a good move, and in fact no one got hurt.
The thing about this is MSU won, whether we get a victory or not from the NCAA- and in my opinion we should, the bottom line is this guy ran out of town to try to spite John Cohen and his "trash-talking" assistants. The reason MSU won is because now everyone in the college baseball world is going to know about our bad *** coach that wants his team to play in bad conditions and does whatever it takes to win. And isn't scared of anyone. And if you do cross him, you're going to be publicly humiliated. This is going to trickle down to the players. We were tougher than they were. We went out and played and didn't make anu excuses, even though it didn't count.
Remember this. This is just the beginning. And for the record, to spite, Nicholls State, we should count this game as a win in our record book and media guide to serve as a reminder. It would be appropriate because I think this is a building block to what we are starting to become.
