I pull for SEC teams as a matter of course but varying degrees of engagement. However, as I watched last night, I became really frosted at the tone of the ESPiN announcers which was basically treating the Gamecocks as if they were annoying interlopers in UCLA’s magic carpet ride. It was obvious that they had drawn up their own little pet storyline about the Bruins winning a National Title in the one major sport where they HAVEN’T, I suppose in memory of their late departed HC of 30 years ago. I am so glad that the ’Cocks refused to cooperate with this garbage. Congratulations again for doing the SEC proud with a tenacious win and the NC Title.

vindexdawg, totally agree with you on the espn announcers slanted leanings. It appeared to pain them whenever SC pitchers "turned the ucla hitters water off, time and time again. It was if the procession of events “was not supposed to be happening!” That the premier MLB drafted pitchers from ucla should and would eventually prevail. Repeated comments about the “non overpowering” USC pitchers. Have they no knowledge of other "non overpowering MLB pitchers like Greg Maddox and Tom Glavine, for example. Also, did you notice that espn did not run replays of the championship but only a ticker line below their feature stories indicating the result of the gamel More SEC lack of respect from espn.

Congrats. to the gamecocks for their baseball year. But_______, hope you feel the pain after our UGA—USC game this fall! Go DAWGGGGGGS!
