More TV Coverage Ranting

This time, I'm not the one ranting. Nope, this time devoted Texas baseball blogger and college baseball fan (and dare I say friend of Big Ten Hardball?), Joanna, apparently is just as up in arms over college baseball's television coverage as I am.

Absolutely, I'm a friend of Big Ten Hardball! I sure was in a bad mood after watching that game the other day. The game was bad. Bad as it was, though, the broadcast was worse. And, looking at your "rant" post, I can see we might've actually had the same crews working both games! Yikes.

About your "College Baseball Hall of Fame" post, I'm rather curious about the new Hall. One of the articles I read about it quoted one of the people behind it as saying something along the lines of: "We kept hearing people talk about setting up a Hall of Fame for college baseball and nobody was doing anything about it so we did." So, it turns out that anyone can set up a new Hall of Fame and people will just go along? 'Seems kinda weird. You'd think the NCAA would have some say. But, I guess not. More power to the folks in Lubbock for going forward, I suppose. I do wish them well but can't imagine they'll be drawing big crowds. I've never been to Canton or Cooperstown. But, I have been to Lubbock. And, lemme just say, I won't be making a special trip there to visit the new Hall of Fame any time soon. Ah well...

I have to admit that Lubbock struck me as an odd choice, but if they are willing to put up the cash, I guess they get to have it.

I've been reading what little there is on the matter this evening and it sounds like Omaha took a pass on hosting the Hall. That seems odd to me as well.

A number of folks agree with your assessment of Lubbock, too. Others think the initial list of nominees is flawed. Although, that's hardly shocking.

I embrace the idea, but question it's viability, especially in Lubbock. Hope I'm wrong, though.
