Yes, Auburn University beat writer Collin Mickle is still working for the Opelika-Auburn News. Actually, he's working really hard for the O-A this week (wait, that's every week. Seriously, the C-Man is averaging like 57.2 bylines a week or something crazy like that.)
That's why I'm at baseball today and was at women's hoops last night. Collin is covering everything else on the Plains, which in the spring is a lot.
A LOT, I say.
Right now, he's at spring football practice, which, let's face it (and I'm not trying to take anything away from the other sports ... but) football is king in these here parts. Plus, now, with a full-blown quarterback controversy, it's amazing I'm not at practice as well.
Don't worry, I will be tomorrow for the scrimmage ... 10 a.m.-ish at Jordan-Hare. Nice.
** Just had to stand for the national anthem. I love the anthem at baseball (OK, I love the Star Spangled Banner anywhere. I'm patriotic like that.) But baseball might be the only sport left where the athletes are actually on the playing field when the anthem is played. There's just something about all the players and coaches lined up down the baselines with their hats off. Classy.
Anyway, I'm getting strapped in for an exciting baseball game between the Auburn Tigers and Florida State Seminoles. Should be a good one.
Until later, enjoy ...
