The Tailgate

T What began as a pretty awesome story ended as shitty as it possibly have ended. NC State was considered the "Cinderella" team of the tournament, they were 2-0 so far in Omaha which put them in the final four of the College World Series. Before their game v's Vanderbilt on Friday the Wolfpack had sidelined for "Covid Tracing" , just one player tested positive and his roommate was linked to other players that were being traced. NC State played that Friday game v's Vandy which they could have forfeited, Vandy won the game 3-1 but hats off to NC State for taking the field.
Then at 2:30 am Saturday morning, the fuckin day NC State was supposed to play Vandy to see who played in the College World Series final, the NCAA informed NC State they were kicked out of the tournament. They declared the game a no-contest and Vandy was pushed into the finals. The NCAA released a statement on twitter with the same old bullshit verbiage that the NCAA always uses. How the decision was made with the recommendation of the of tournament medical team and the county health department. They went on to say because of privacy issues they couldn't say anymore. Man, fuck the NCAA honestly. NC State fans came out in packs (pun intended) to greet their team at Doak Field where they play in North Carolina. After a legit 10 minute round of applause for their boys, the crowd started to chant "Speech, Speech. Speech", talking to Head Coach Elliot Avent. He praised his teams character, the support of the Wolfpack fans and declared NC State the National Champs. Think of these kids that weren't even supposed to be here, defied the odds and made it to the final 4....then these pieces of shit took in all away from them. They have had packed houses at every game, fans sitting side by side, no protocols for the people watching.....just the gives busting their ass for a natty title. One positive testm ruined an entire seasons worth of hard work. These kids might never have the chance to experience this shit again. The NCAA is one of the most fucked up Sports organization on this planet, right up there with FIFA and the IOC. Fuck the NCAA
