POSTGAME BASEBALL TALK: Florida

Raw and unfiltered Rob. He got on a roll. Hilarious and entertaining.

Rob: " I'm just a simple man, I grew up on a dirt road in Durhm."

"Crossed the what!?"

If folks want to save time and just listen to someone who knows ball, you can skip to the 57 minute mark when Rob comes in.

Promoting the wit, wisdom, and whimsy of Rob McClamb is gatekeeping? I personally found it way more entertaining than the previous hour of James and Ethan passing the same talking points back and forth, but I'm certainly not trying to deny you of that dross should you want to listen to it.

Rob thinks the same thing I do so he knows ball!

I enjoyed both sides of the argument and think they're both valid and worth hearing out. Baseball guys are so annoying with the constant gatekeeping of "their" sport and how it should be played. It's tiresome.

Yeah I thought just the opposite. James and Ethan calling it like it is and then Rob going homer. (Which is fine but you have to see it for what it is).

It isn't baseball guys. It's just 2-3 homers who gatekeep around here. Gets pretty annoying. But yes they certainly do think highly of their opinions.

Lol Rob going homer? Rob isn't even a State fan.

I get the argument for walking but at the same time it's still baseball where even the best players fail more than they succeed. He's still more likely to get out than get a hit and much more likely to get out than hit a HR.

You can apply the same logic as the bunting argument. Why bunt and give up an out when you're more likely to get out than get a hit anyways? Why walk him and give up a base when he's more likely to get out than get a hit?

It's okay to have different opinions LOL

Yep and it is ok to call it like it is. Doesn't mean you dislike the coach or want him fired. There were things I did not like in the 2 games in Omaha, but I still fully support Avent and his program. Boring conversation if we can't look at things objectively.

And people have different opinions of what "calling it like it is" means. Having different opinions quite literally means these discussions are subjective not objective. Boring conversation if everyone just agreed with each other.

---

Is it gate keeping to complain about people posting their opinion about how they don't like someone else's opinion? I have a hard time keeping up.

It's really not that complex. Just stop policing any opinion given that calls a coach decision into question.

You're literally trying to police his opinion right now lol

Honestly, it has never been my intention to keep anyone else from expressing their point of view, and last I checked, I have zero power to do so even if I wanted to. In fact, I purposely avoid posting or responding to certain people because I know that everything I say gets their panties in a wad. One thing I'm certainly not going to do is change what or how I post. My track record for 7+ years on this website is consistent and there for all to see, and if they don't like what I do, there's an ignore feature, which I can promise you I use to great effect.
