  2. I hate basketball too, but the kids like the games, so I deal. I'm ready to get some bats a-swinging myself....:)
  3. Wow, I guess they think we have the pitching this year.
  4. Nice lookin' poll. Can't wait for Baseball!
  5. Tigers at the PMAC is not bad (for that matter the college game is not that miserable sense they actually run an offense and all 5 players hustle). The pro game can go the way of the NHL for all I care.

    Smoke is supposed to have good pitching and hitting this year. Should be a great spring for LSU sports.
