OMAHA—Aaron & I had some thoughts on the second day of the 2009 College World Series. It was a great day of baseball that had twists, turns and tremendous play, as well as a memorable error and plenty of walks.

We break it down in six good minutes of college baseball talk.

Good vlog guys. John’s a natural, and if Aaron reduces his whiplash risk, he’ll be right there with John. ;-) Enjoying your new medium! Keep it up.

Hard to believe you guys are so doubtful about CSF’s prospects vis-a-vis your optimism NC can still do it. I think no doubt ASU & LSU (reminder: your #1 & 2 teams in the nation) are in the driver seats. Some that might have gone 0-4 to this point, might have forgotten their own poll; wink. Four wins in a row against this level of comp is a bruttle looking road ahead for the losers, but it will surely be interesting. Having hurdled NC, Leake & Spence have got to put ASU odds on favs at this point. Looking foreward to your next vlog.
