Exhibition game

So it's unlikely.

What I did find, which I had completely forgotten about until I found one, and then I was like, oh, my God, there might be more, is that teams used to play in-season exhibition games, which I think were – Not as well documented, not on baseballreference.com or RetroSheet.

And again, listeners, I count everything.

I mean, I'm not judging the quality of the competition.

And look at every off day for all these teams.

This is the cool thing about...

And one of the things I want baseball researchers to do is to publish their data in a way that somebody doesn't have to do it again, right? And I did find in RetroSheet, there was some guy years ago that he actually published this list of in-season exhibition games.

Cool.

I didn't see the goal.

I just saw the game I scored and I just felt like when I in the video, because if you think of game I scored in the winning goal, you're thinking of, you know, Scrimmage, but I didn't see the goal.

But yeah, I'm just, I didn't really watch the match.

I don't want to comment too much on the match.

But-

There's exhibition games

... exhibitions, uh, scrimmages, secret scrimmages, not so secret scrimmages

Fake, fake secret scrimmages all over Twitter.

I played with her in Kansas City for a season, and I just really love her as a person.

We interviewed her on Friendlies a few, maybe a month or two ago.

Um, she's played every minute of every game for Utah over the last two seasons, and she wrote on Instagram with like the little repost of her call-up, um, graphic, that this was the biggest dream come true.

So I do feel really happy for Kate.

My parents are just the cutest.

Um, okay, a few announcements before we let everybody go.

That is it for this week's episode of Good Vibes FC, but I just wanna remind everybody, we have an episode of Friendlies with Kennedy Wesley coming out on Thursday.

Loved chatting with her.

But if you can start to see that develop throughout the season, you're going to see a lot of different dynamics of the way that this team can play.

Now, you know, obviously going into the exhibition games, like I mentioned, they play Utah next week on the 7th.

Then they play BYU, who's going to be a preseason top 20 team, and Missouri, who's going to be preseason ranked as well.

before they get rolling against Northern Arizona on November 3rd, these three exhibition games are going to be something to watch.

Yes.

There's going to be a ton of overreaction if the rebels play well, and there's going to be a ton of overreaction if the rebels do not play well, but it's going to give you a lot of idea of the pieces.

Then you have, obviously, you have Cam Miles, downhill scorer, ball handler.

If he can take the next leap, he can get into the rotation, in my opinion, but if he doesn't take that leap, he's going to be a very good depth piece to have on this roster as he develops and grows under Josh and could be a contributor during conference play.

There were some more teams at play.

I do like the fact that next week, yes, there's a ton of these exhibition games next week, which I will not be watching, but that's neither here nor there.

I do like kind of the setup of the schedule for next, at least Friday anyway.

Hold on.

As I mentioned before we went to break, Paul, there were some other games being played, so take us up north to Alaska.

Well, you know, they're in the same boat as Maryville is.

You know, you're playing a bunch of exhibition games You don't really

know what you're going to get.

You assume another state, you're eligible.

So we've got a lot of... and crannies to be going through with Aveda and here in the first segment we did see our first few exhibition games of the college basketball shall we say preseason I'll just give you guys my thoughts on why I just really don't put a lot of stock into it like it was great that we saw Vanderbilt and Virginia playing outdoors we will be seeing a zero outdoor games this year they tried those games on like aircraft carriers a few seasons ago but they decided to retire those a long long time ago so I I'll talk about why it's whose line is it anyway.

Everything's made up and the points don't matter, but always some fun there.

And if you do want to get interactive with this podcast, a few ways to be able to fire those in.

So at some point midseason, if the judge rules that – None of those guys are going to be able to play.

Like, what do they do at that point? It's just comical, you know, at this point.

And it'll just be interesting to see how all of these issues start to impact the season because we just played exhibition games in Charleston.

Like we have officially entered exhibition season, right? So practice has started.

... getting down to the last days of summer for everybody.

My, Rod Brind'Amour was on TSN 1050 on, on, uh, Monday and said, "I'd be fine if we got rid of exhibition games altogether," and he's a coach.

He would be the-

Wow

...

the one subset that I think would want to keep exhibition games.

Do you foresee a day in which we could see that, what he talked about?

No.
