    I like NASCAR. Is that a minor sport?

    Not familiar with it. If robots fight it's a sport.

    I only watched the first 3. Second one is really cool.

    I'm willing to bet it is from a winspedia or wikipedia site.

    Like you, as soon as I read it I knew it was WAY off. And it wasn't a personal reference to Bama's appearances, it was the four straight appearances by Washington back when the SEC was just beginning its softball play.

    Should have framed it in the last several years, not all- time. I still missed Oklahoma though.

    Only reason you even checked was cause UCLA was in there. :D

    I think it was. Still, shows LSU is in the mix- especially given our SOS.

    EDIT: How funny but I went look and it was on the Official LSU network site. Lol

    Not sure what constitutes last several years but I'd think by a loose standard, Florida and Bama also qualify. Still think using the WCWS from 82 on is a good measure.

    Not at all. I know what they've accomplished in the sport, no use in ignoring it. At the same time I knew schools like AZ, Washington, Oklahoma, and Florida would be in the mix. Heck, ucla has 11 titles and AZ has 8. Oklahoma is the next up with 4.

    But let's consider a different measure because I'm not convinced that 3 consecutive years means e'rything.

    Appearances:
    LSU-2001, 2004, 2012, 2015, 2016, 2017
    Oregon-1976, 1980, 1989, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018
    Bama-2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016

    It's probably not Torina's fault though. That fan who is supposed to be ignored is probably killing your recruiting, lol.

    On the first one, Izzy was saying it was time to ax Beth and she’s not won the SEC, which catapults us into the CWS. I was showing winning the SEC was not necessary for a CWS birth and also tried to show she’s had success at getting us there. Beth only started coaching in 2012 so ‘82 may be a bit too much to go back.

    On the second paragraph I left, you’re being too serious, lighten up.

    I hadn’t really followed the program closely and why I even went check to see what Torina’s done, to begin with. Looking back, I should’ve left well enough alone and shut the fuck up.
