Jasper won another baseball State championship.  What's knew?  What an unbelievable program they built. 

My buddies always said after they got bumped up to 4A, "they'll have a wakeup call in 4A.   lol  Jasper competes at any level, always have always will.  

Leiter was asked after his last outing what he learned from his 1-0 loss and giving up a solo homerun.  Every pitch counts he said.  Likewise last night on getting outs, you have to get 27 of them.   What a win.

Proud dad moment tonight. With the score tied, the bases loaded, and two outs in the bottom of an extra inning game, Little Keet got the game winning hit. 

I bet dad was on the edge of his seat!  hahahaha that's awesome

I havent had a legit thunderstorm in years. I remember growing up a few times a summer having what seemed like day long storms. 

The town I live in has some sort of force field that repels storms. They literally break apart, bypass my town, and come back together after passing. 

You must live in the same town as I do.  lol  About a 50 minute drive North of Eville.  Happens here all the time.

I was excited to see 3 new pages of transfer news/updates. Something interesting must of happened!

Instead, it's a Lebron/NBA probe.  Waa-Wahhh

 

I don't really want to read back through the previous few pages, all I want to know is Lebron coming to play for your new coach or not?  Transferring? Not transferring?

My understanding is you are allowed to retreat as long as you are not leaving base path. Javy played it perfect and I don't know what Craig was thinking. He probably doesn't either.

I see, Thanks!  Not sure any of them knew what was going on.  Javey had time to even make the "safe" call for the ump and still made it to 2nd base. Unreal.  hahahaha

Video speaks for itself.

 

Never seen anything like that before.  I always thought you can't get into a run down/pickle between 1st & home?  Any experts know the rule?  And Rizzo cracking up in the dugout was hilarious.

This sounds very promising.

Cool interview of a great kid.  Seems very promising for IU baseball.  I would have went as far as betting 1/2 the farm he wouldn't make it to campus. Not the whole farm just half. lol

Yes, they're all SRs. I checked.

Thanks

I thought there might have been another. I know 3 of them are SRs, is the 4th, as well? UE doesn't have a bad baseball program, at all. Actually.. INST, ND, IU, BSU are all better to significantly better than Purdue and I would put UE fairly close to Purdue.

Coming from a Purdue fan, eeeeekkkkkkkk, I may even put a nod for UE above the Boilers currently.  Not sure if all seniors or not, just know they are loaded like you said.

Southridge is stupid loaded for a 2A public school. 3 kids going D1. 

One being a top 50 player nationally Colsen Montgomery. 

I was thinking they actually had 4, lol.   Gasser Michigan. Taylor & Bell UE, & of course Montgomery probably the big show.  Been wrong before but yes stupid loaded.

Welcome to the board! Hopefully recovery goes well for you. Sadly....there are so many people just like you but the issue of covid/vaccine or not has gotten so out of hand nobody believes anything anymore. 

Welcome again and hope you get back to normal. 

Appreciate it. And yes I know I am not in this battle alone.  The more Dr visits I go to, the more and more people I see are struggling with a broad range of issues.

Thoughts and prayers going your way.  My wife was diagnosed AFTER her first shot, but before her second.  She had no symptoms prior to the shot, but must have been exposed shortly before or shortly after.  She has been able to get the second shot, but the virus hit her pretty hard.  I like to think that the first shot offered some protection and may have been what kept her out of the hospital.  I was fully vaccinated when she got sick (I did the one shot J&J) and did not catch it from her.  She is still having some fatigue issues, and is complaining about memory lapses that she did not have before.   

Prayers for her too.  Definitely understand, crazy the different affects from person to person.

Thanks a bunch to all you guys/gals.  My wife still has the antibodies as of last week and is still up in the air on getting the vaccine. Me, I'm still a little hesitant on how I will react.......... Just the unknown for us.  Thanks again to you all.

Long time lurker, 1st time post.  Honesty up front. I am a Purdue fan, wife IU fan.  I can root for either team when not playing each other.  Been following this board for a long time just to keep up with the sport and such.  Anyway, back to original topic.  I was diagnosed with Covid back around Thanksgiving. Needless to say it has been he!! ever since. My symptoms consisted of rapid pulse and high blood pressure, dizziness, balance issues, and lower body fatigue in both legs. Almost felt like I was walking through 3' of snow or heavy mud for miles. I was in bed for 6 weeks but never did have shortness of breath, fever, or any kind of body aches.  To this day I still have trouble with fatigue and balance issues. I have had basically every test out there, from MRI of brain to CT scans, to bloodwork, to echo of heart and so on.  Everything has come back normal for my age, 46.  PreCovid I was on a minimal dose of BP medicine and was active and felt great.  I am doing Physical Therapy twice a week to try and "train" my brain back with my eyes for balance and whatever else.  I still do not know what to think about the whole virus thing.  My wife got it at the same time and barely had sniffles for 2 days and was perfectly fine.  Me, I am still having issues 5-6 months later with no answers in sight.  I have missed a bunch of my daughters High School sports these past few months and it really wears on me.  Long story short, I have no clue what to think about the vaccine, the virus, and everything else the experts talk about, but I do know one thing, I basically had a life changing illness that has affected my life.  Sorry for 1st long post, but it has sucked!!!!
