Softball drama as losing team wastes enough time to tie :gigachad2: :marseypopcorntime:

So in college softball, there's a "drop-dead" rule. Basically, if a game is running too long, and one of the teams needs to travel to get back to campus the next day, the game can be ended prematurely with a final score of the last complete inning.

As far as I know, this doesn't happen that often. But this past week, some based Texans used it to their advantage. Kentucky :marseysoutherner: was up 7-4 after scoring 3 runs in the top of the inning, but since the drop-dead cutoff wasn't too far away, Texas :marseytexan: just wasted time in the bottom of the inning and delayed the game until the ump was forced to end it, reverting the score to a 4-4 tie. :marseypikachu2:

This caused massive amounts of seethe, obviously. At least in terms of softball. :marseywomanmoment:

TL;DR: Here's an 8-page thread of men arguing about ethics in college softball. Enjoy:

That's the thing I like about psycho fans/ TD, they care about women's sports if it means hating other teams.

It's why women's sports only really works on the national/college level. You need the the hate to motivate

The admins have not intervened in the powermod issue since before the time I was Reddit CEO.

My advice (if you really want them removed) is to troll the heck out of them until they're so far on tilt that they end up violating a Reddit rule, and then the admins ban them. However, this is ultimately a destructive, negative-sum way to live.

My better advice is to just go plant some trees. You'll feel good.
