Man, it's a darned good thing you put "OT" in the subject, lest someone see
"college baseball" and think you'd invented a new type of specialized,
particularly well-educated (and/or drunken) marlin fly or something...

It's just good manners to put OT in the Subject: header of
off-topic posts so those who want to filter the Subject:
headers can do so.

....wouldn't be easier to just put "_ON_ TOPIC" in the subject line, and that
way, those that didn't want to see "OT" stuff could read all six posts a year...

And IAC, pretty much by convention, there really is no "on" or "off" topic on
ROFF...I mean, geezmarieonapony, didn't someone ask about tampons or the like
once...?

As for the David beats Goliath baseball game I am reminded
that the Illini beat college baseball leviathan LSU about
this time last year. Turns out it didn't mean a whole hell
of a lot. LSU had their usual excellent season and Illinois
had their usual mediocre "snow belt team" season. But for
nonce, congrats to Eastern Carolina.

Wow...they got beat by TWO smallish Carolina teams in one day...? Sounds more
like David beats a dead horse...

HTH,
