Which Team Is Us

If you have had the pleasure so far this season to see any of the three home games that Coleman Pitt Post 58 has had at home so far, you just might not be able to tell  the players by their uniform.  You see Post 58 has seven Jersey tops five pairs of pants to mix and match and so far in three home games they have worn three different uniforms.

Unless you have a son playing it could be hard to tell which team is us or them walking down the hill on the left field foul line as you come up behind home plate at Nash Central High School.  I'll give you a hint Post 58 will be in the first base dugout.  Their next home game is Thursday night and it is a conference game so they begin playing for playoff seeding this week.

The Pirates of ECU and the Wolfpack of N C State have joined Carolina in the NCAA baseball playoff field.  Carolina  will host a Regional  starting Friday.  The Heels play for the first time at 6.00pm Friday night.

Everything that has happened in Greenville the last year concerning the baseball team  and the slow start they had this year there were many wondering whether Billy Godwin would survive this year but he has his Pirates the #2 seed int the Virginia Regional. I don't know whether the Virginia Regional being seeded #2 was a reward or punishment for the Pirates.  Virginia is the top seed in the entire tournament.

Like Godwin  it didn't look very good for the other half of the Northern Nash coaching connection in Raleigh.  Elloitt  Avent's team started 1-5 in conference play and was 13-10 at the low point of the season.  They won 22 out of their last 31 to find a #3 seeding in the South Carolina Regional.  The Pack starts play Friday as well.

All the networks that ESPN has none of our three teams in the playoffs will be televised this weekend.

Jim Tressel finally quit as the Ohio State football coach.  We live in a society today that people who get caught lying  get the worse end of the deal except for politicians.  They never tell the truth but get away with it.  Seems to me cheating of any sort should be on the same level as lying and treated the same.  A coach who cheats or school caught cheating  should all be treated the same.

The NCAA looks at this deal as a coach that lies is harder to catch so they expect all the cheaters to tell the truth.  There are not many people who wind up in court ever did any thing wrong if you listen to them.
