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...

just a roff teaser, trolled in roiling waters...so made it plain enough
to get a bite. ...you weren't the intended catch.

I figured as much - I was merely commenting on the (humorous, IMO) proliferation
of "OT" prefixing such subjects as insert team or sport, most- or least-fav pol
or click-n-clack car tip here...

Here, I'll further help chum the waters for ya...

Jeff, I believe you have a dork fish on you line. While not particularly
dangerous, they are especially annoying. You need only give it the business
end of a priest and toss it back.

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.

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.

east carolina fields a decent baseball team most years, plays a strong
schedule, and is fun to watch when playing in greenville... especially
when matched against out-of-state ranked teams or carolina or nc state.
ill-noise's team is here in our annual invitational tournament.
"western" virginia is here too.

ECU should come play ASU, except that no one could find the field lines or
ball for that matter--just a wee bit of snow on the field.

The footbal stadium field has about three feet of smow on it! Hope it melts
away by sept.

....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...?

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