Rippy Rights with Brian Scott Lippey.

Transcript can be obtained by drinking a fifth of bourbon, ramming your head through some drywall,

and then writing down every thought you have.

What's up on a Friday? I am Brian Scott Rippey.

Thank you for turning into another edition of the Rippey Rights podcast.

It is Mailbag Friday. The People's Holiday is upon us once more.

We've also got a baseball preview with Colin Bristerair. That's right. The baseball previews are back. Who would have thought we'd have been in this position in late May as of a couple weeks ago? But, you know, the rebels are very much alive heading into Baton Rouge this weekend, coming off a really clean and well-played midweek win

at a very good Southern Miss Club, who granted not playing their best baseball right now,

but still a team that's been in line to host for most of the year.

So Colin and I got into a lot of different things, what Ole Miss needs to do to make the

postseason kind of recashing that, where their RPI stands after the win, and really some less tangible things. Like we both kind of had the observation this team just look different, look more confident on Wednesday night in Southern, in Hattiesburg against Southern Miss. One of those things is harder to articulate, but I thought it was true. I don't know. How many times his Ole Miss go in and lose that game nine to three because they have a terrible night at the plate of midweek pitching doesn't hold up. Something just looked different about them. There's no margin for error. It may end up being meaningless, but, you know, as Colin says, don't let this team get hot. Who's to see? Anyway, got a lot of that. Then we'll get to your mailbag questions

after Colin Bristcher. And then that'll close out a great Friday show. If you missed it,

we didn't do a midweek podcast because Chase, Colin and I did a three-way show,

nothing like a little three-way action, a snake draft of all-time Mike Bianco team.

So we drafted a team, 10-hitters, four pitchers, and a bench guy.

Yeah, 10-hitters, four pitchers and a bench guy.

No, excuse me, I can't do this today.

Ten hitters, five pitchers, and a bench guy.

There we go.

From any player of any Mike Bianco team for our all-time Bianco era team. So you can catch that on the Rebel Grove, Oxford Exxon podcast feed, but that was the reason for no midweek show. All right, here's Mailbag Friday. Before we get to that, though, and remind you the podcast brought to you by Skybox Sports P Who is Skybox sports picks? Well, glad you asked.
