We are so doomed tonight

DOOMED, I SAY!!!!!

Doomed doesn't even begin to describe it.

The kid we're facing, Mike Leake, is a staggering 16-1 on the season with a 1.36 ERA, 150 strikeouts and only 21 bases on balls through 132.2 innings. In his only loss, he allowed a mere earned run in seven innings of work but was outshined by K-State's ace, A.J. Morris.

Leake was also the eighth overall pick in the recent MLB draft. He's a soon-to-be multi-multi-millionaire who is destined for Cooperstown and, quite likely, the U.S. presidency.

It's also within the realm of probability that he could cure cancer and invent an alternative energy source. Rumor has it that Beyonce Knowles, Eva Longoria and Jessica Alba are reconsidering their vows in hopes of a crack at Mr. Leake.

Also, Dos Equis recently announced that it has suspended its "Most Interesting Man in the World" marketing blitz because, compared to Leake, their bearded pitchman seems "boring and insecure."

So, yeah, doomed doesn't even begin to describe it. Our players and coaches might as well not show up. Failing that, we fans might as well not bother to watch.

Our only hope is that Leake woke up this morning feeling merciful and decides to only take the mound against us--he's hitting .303 with 10 hits and 10 runs in 33 at-bats this season.
 
After Mike Leake I hear George Washington will now have to considered second in war, second in peace, and second in the hearts of his countrymen.
 
In the immortal words of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, "We have nothing to fear but Leake himself." It will be too brutal to watch our young team tossed into this meat grinder, maybe I'll rearrange my sock drawer instead of viewing the carnage.
 
There's a better chance of the Astros and Rangers meeting in the World Series than the Longhorns getting a hit tonight off of Leake.
 
There's still hope - we could get a really long rain delay after two innings, and maybe Leake couldn't come back after play resumed. But then we'd still have to hit another ASU pitcher, and since we have no offense to begin with, we are DOOOOMED!!!!

Maybe they will agree to spot us the lead-off hitter in every other inning, just to make it fair.
 
Mike Leake once ate a wildebeest while para-sailing. It was ******* glorious and afterwards we sang Hallelujah in Sanskrit.
 
Our only hope is if he is drafted this afternoon by the US Air Force to knock down North Korean missiles with his off speed pitch. His fast ball often turns into a ray of light that would do no damage to the warhead.

Sigh. Doooooomed.
