    Canes bs Tigers - ACC Championship - 2pm ESPNU/ACCN

    Now I know you've lost the thread. "That's only 1/3 of the game". Sure. But it's the "1/3 of the game" that determines winners and losers. And what about YOU? YOU are the one putting all the blame on the "1/3 of the game" involving pitching, so stop trying to pretend that you are being...

    Gatto wasn't "our best pitching", no matter how much you want to believe that. He gave up 2 runs in 4 and 1/3 innings to DUKE, and you are still acting like "saving him" would have won us the Tournament. Since you're not going to acknowledge it voluntarily, I'll ask you directly to comment on...

    Ah, yes. Gross oversimplification. It's your brand. We've already discussed that we won EVERY GAME THIS YEAR (except 1, which went to extra innings) in which we scored 8 runs or more. So, yeah, exaggerate and come up with "20 runs" as your silly example. And we only need two things to be...

    "13 hits". That's what you do, you provide context-less stats and act like you have successfully dropped the microphone. They had 4 hits in the 7th prior to the error. The first 3 hits resulted in runs, and the 4th hit indirectly led to a run during the error. Why can't you ever be honest...

    Yes. You sooooo don't care. Hilarious.

    Again...that's not what happened. And you WOULD know what would have happened. At least within some reasonable margin. COULD Gallo have shut Clemson down, instead of giving up 3 runs like Chestnutt did? YES, but as you point out, we lost by 6. Which means the 7th inning was the determinant...

    Yep, when I bring all the statistical facts on our terrible hitting, suddenly you develop a reading allergy. Par for the course.

    It may or may not make you "weaker on day four". The reality is that our situational hitting was ABYSMAL.

    It's the opposite of "defending". Earlier, a couple of people claimed you were "defending" the coaching staff, when you never did any such thing, you only went after one particular poster on a personal level, not a "coaching decision" level. If you don't like the word "attacking", I'm fine to...

    Again, you refuse to acknowledge reality. Your SAVIOR Gallo, who was going to be THE GUY to save us against Wake or Clemson, couldn't even get out of the 5th inning against DUKE. But we've got guys trying to tell us that he would have been SOOOOO much better than Chestnutt. It's ridiculous...

    Nope. A dropped fly ball is why Clemson scored 4 of those11 runs today. And our starting pitcher is why Clemson scored 3 of those 11 runs today (and don't act like Gallo didn't give up 2 in 4 and 1/3 against a much lesser Duke team). Torres is responsible (directly/indirectly) for 4 of those...

    And there's no point in hypothesizing if you can't understand that TORRES was not overused, and WALSH was not overused (and would have had no impact if Villegas catches the ball). Sure, you're going to keep beating the Gallo/Walters drum. Though Gallo would have been out of the game in the 7th...

    I'm actually not wrong. And you still haven't re-read his crappy porsts to realize that he said NOTHING in defense of our coaching staff, and ONLY went after the poster on personal grounds, having nothing to do with the merits of our pitching decisions. And it's beyond obvious that NOW he is...

    Uhhh...no...because it isn't true. It's actually bizarre. I want to win every game. I'm not a ***** who advocates for throwing a game, because we are soooooo weak we can't possibly handle throwing ONE pitcher for 4 and 1/3 innings when we could have "saved him". I don't give two ***** about...

    Sure, winning every game 10-0 after scoring 10 runs in the first inning is always ideal. But it doesn't always happen. We were behind earlier in the game. We came back and took the lead. But, sure, if you want to argue that was impossible to do, that it was IMPOSSIBLE to erase a 2-run...

    Oh good lord, "warmups". THAT is your new argument (which you've never made before). "Warmups". I've already said that I thought we used Walters too early on Thursday. Other than that, we did a **** good job of handling the pitching. But, yeah, you're inventing some nonsense about Walters...

    Nobody ever denied Torres gave up 4 runs. But YOU are acting like we couldn't have come back from 2 runs down in the 8th or 9th. Pathetic. I'll bet the Celtics are happy you're not a fan.

    All true. At the same time, we stranded a MASSIVE number of baserunners. It's just funny, when I said BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT that it would have been nice (and helpful to our pitching staff) to have more days off, two posters in particular **** on me. Now that we actually saw that our pitching...

    We were down 7-5 when Villegas dropped the inning-ending fly ball. And we stranded 5 guys in the next 2 innings. Keep denying that those two things happened. It's not okay if you disagree.

    Sure. As I've told @IndayArtHauz , none of your posts have anything to do with "defending the coaches". Your posts are all about you trying to find belated support for your arguments that we should have thrown the second Pool game. That's all you care about. You're not defending Arteaga...
