Only 56 days until game 1.

Cal vs UC Irvine Feb 3 @ Anteater Park 6:00pm

party party party

The Bullwinkle is once again throwing the guantlet down and challenging all websters.

The 2nd HSBBW Avatar Betting is on.

How about an avatar bet? The loser of the series must use the avatar of the winning team until the next weekend.

Example: Bet is on with URKMBlue vs Bullwinkle. if Cal wins the series, Bullwinkle will use the Cal avatar for one week, if UC Irvine wins, URKBlue must use a UCI Avatar until the next weekend series.

Now the betting in not only with me....please, there are hundreds of series and leagues out there...(I think the SEC, ACC, Pac10, and other leagues play too) here's a web site http://www.collegebaseballinsider.com/
Then click League/Team Links.

Throw your own guantlet down and dare another webster to bet. Post everything here. It was fun last year, let's get more websters involved.

Ok.....here's my link to the UCI schedule.

The Bullwinkle is taking on all websters. Pick a series, any series.... post the dates and I'll bet. You'll look great wearing the Anteater colors.

Here's a site that has all Team Logos:

Remember to wash and clear all avatars upon return...last year it was rather gross that DB2BMom gave me a dirty stinky avatar to wear for a week. But, being the dirtbags, I can understand that being clean is bizarre concept for them.

Go Eaters!

M to the double O, S to the E.

Love your idea H3 Smile

SonofAMoc - I am not kidding about your autograph, but it will sincerely be all my pleasure to meet you Smile

Hey since this is a baseball site, how about some scoop on Tennessee? Here are some questions for you:

1) Was fall practice what was expected or were you surprised by the differences with your previous experiences? (I ask my son these type of questions all the time)

2) Do you think you know what your role might be or are you still battling to determine your role? i.e., relif versus starter

3) Did your summer league experience prepare you well to face D1 hitters?

4) How has the adjustment gone being so far away from home? Going to a bigger school?

5) Anything else you might like to add or were surprised about?
CD-
I appreciate the interest! My parents ask me the same questions (daily). I would be happy to give you another perspective. Wink

1) The fall practices were basically the same as last fall. I think the formula is the same everywhere, week of drills and setting up defenses and plays, then the intrasquads start. For me, same routine, new scenery.

2) Unsure of my role as of right now, looking to start but will be happy to pitch in whatever role needed, and with only 9-10 pitchers on the staff, I'm sure i'll need to.

3) I'm assuming by summer you're referring to pre-college, because I faced D-1 hitters last spring too. Now, if you mean this past summer (collegiate wood bat league) preparing me for SEC hitters, all I can say is that I hope it got me better! Smile Facing college hitters with wood is a lot easier than when they are holding Metal!

4) I'm sure anyone who lives in East TN/ Western Carolina will agree with me when I say that the scenery is some of the best in the country. It makes walking to class a lot more bearable! Also, Tennessee is bigger in name only than USF.
UT= about 22,000 students USF= 42,000 (bigger campus as well).

5) I love the support of the baseball team up here (See Bizazz and HiawasseeVol) Cool . The people are great and I can't wait to start the year and play against some great players. I would recommend college to any high schooler on the brink.

All in all, I'm sure my fall ball experience is similar to a lot of guys, except with different colors and classes! I will say that I feel like a freshman again! Roll Eyes

Also, that first day of wind chill at 11 degrees was a bit of a surprise. (Never been anywhere lower than about 35, Eek lol).

BTW, hows CC doing?

Questions: observer44, by olders school do you mean Fullerton? Are you formally asking for a bet to both series?

I love that TPM is talking postseason prior to the first game being played...
Baseball Gods are you listening?

BTW, the orange and purple Kurta was slim-fit, to natty mid-thigh. It was teamed up with narrow pants that taper in at the hem, I kept its length just above my ankles to teasingly reveal my glamorously high kitten-heeled sandals.

Bullwinkle looked extraordinary fabulous.

URKMB-

You're on! That is...if you can handle the pressure of back-to-back weekend avatar bets. kidding

My current avatar bets:

1) URKMB vs DB2BMom: Long Beach @ CAL Feb 10 - 12
2) Bullwinkle vs DB2BMom: UCI @ Long Beach Mar 31, Apr 1 - 2
3) Futureback.Mom vs DB2BMom: Long Beach @ UCR May 19 - 21

Just looked over the schedule again and found a few more websters to challenge to an avatar bet:

1) rz1 - Illinois-Chicago @ Long Beach Feb 24 - 26
2) RHP05Parent - Long Beach @ Cal Poly May 5 - 7
3) Level Swing - Long Beach @ Fullerton Mar 24 - 26 and/or Fullerton @ Long Beach May 26 - 28

rz1, RHP05Parent & Level Swing-

Any of you up for the bet? I hope Bullwinkle's comment about a stinky dirty avatar has not frightened you off...I promise to turn over a clean avatar....or NOT. Gotta live up to that Dirtbag image ya know. LOL!

I'm with you on this...I've tried to move the graphics around too...no luck...that's why I haven't been Frappering...anyone want to clue us in!

Unusually Unusual idea Bullwinkle...this is great.

How do I know if my son's team is being opposed by another webster's team? Just post I suppose? noidea
