Like the minute you find a kid from Texas, well he must be better than anybody we have because of his address. You're all a joke. Who made any of you an expert in judging baseball talent? Nobody. Who made any of you a college baseball coach, recruiter, scout? Nobody. And what of the kid's character? You would have a bunch like the basketball team had 10 years ago, and overlook the team crimewave?? Sure, as long as they win baseball games.

There are some pretty talented and special kids, that work their as* off, not to please any of you, but to represent Ohio State and be role models for the kids who look up to them. And I bet that any one of you would watch a "local kid" sign with another school and then change your argument from "he recruits all local kids" (which isnt true), to "he can't keep the local kids here". There is no pleasing some people, so go about your business. You give to a community as much as Todd and his staff has given and it still isn't enough. I'm done with you.

And yes we do play in snow. 3 times in the past 2 years, to be exact the game weather report was "flurries". And I sat in them, so don't tell me we don't play in snow.

And my gawd. Is getting drafted into the pros a big deal? Not to you obviously because you certainly weren't, but yes it is a big deal.

And OK Shuck - Galion. Marion. That was Luebke. Close enough, its local. Or was that 1st round draft choice a bad recruiting move by Todd too? Oh yea Swisher lived in Worthington. Way too close, Todd should have never had him on the team. Go get some surfer from California or Florida, gotta be better than Swisher, he's just some local kid.

Ok now I'm done. Like I said, you can't please some people no matter what.

And those who can't discuss rationally, attack.

This is an unacceptable response. Feel free to find another site that isn't full of whiners. I suggest Bucknuts.
