Maybe I’m the one, maybe I’m the one, who’s the schizophrenic psycho, yeah ~Puddle of Mudd - Bryan Holaday’s to the plate song
This spring we decided to get season tickets for TCU baseball. It’s been a bit of a grind with 27 home games stretching from early March through the first week of May but we have had a lot of fun. Most nights we are surrounded by students who wander in to watch the game, text on their cell phones and talk about their classes. All I can say is today’s student is different from when I was going to school but so is our entire society. Cell phones and lap top computers have made their experience so different from mine. One night a student wanted to talk to another who was a few rows in front of him. The fellow up front said “Just text me and I’ll text you back.” Seems like some students would just as soon text as talk, for myself I’d rather talk… my fingers just aren’t that nimble.
Last nights game with BYU was a nail-biter, tied 3 all after 9 1/2 innings, but in the bottom of the 10th the game turned out to be a Holaday as Bryan Holaday smashed a 2 out, 2 run, walk off home run to propel the No. 15 TCU Horned Frogs to a 5-3 win over BYU .

The series ends today at 4:00 pm weather permitting. We have about a 40% chance of thunderstorms. I’d like to get the last game in before it rains as we don’t need any more cancelled games. We just need another Holaday.
Lettin’ out the clutch, steppin’ on the gas and movin’ a bit further down the highway.
