This is a golden opportunity to position ourselves nicely in the conference tourney. Traditionally it has been tough for us to win in Rock Hill.

disappointing weekend, and it does not surprise me at all. it is tough to win in rock hill. we are still holding on to 3rd place with another huge road trip to chuck south this weekend.

Did anyone else notice the Rudeness and foul sportsmanship?#172958

Just being overly obnoxious.. degrading of the players of Liberty.. Making a tasteless crack about Coach Toman after he was hit by a foul ball.. stuff like that...

Especially as a Christian...
We all know what is right and what is wrong..
We cheer for our guys and do not disparage the competition.... period... I am a coach and would not put up with what I heard...

No, see, not everyone has the same opinion. I especially disagree with your third line. What is right and what is wrong is strongly up for debate.

I guess you are one of those fans at Collegiate athletic events who push the envelope at every opportunity...The end of my participation in this thread..

I'd just like to know what you consider is wrong. We don't use bad language, but if someone does something stupid, or funny, or is wearing something stupid looking, we'll make fun of them for it, but it's all in fun.

Does making fun of someone especailly our guests at Worthington stadium make you feel better.. Build others up as Christ commands us to do... Or out of your mouth comes blessing or cursing.. Which is yours? James 3:10...
