I've long said that college baseball deserves more respect, especially this time of year. Folks obsess with March Madness, but I don't think it holds a candle to June Madness.

Fine. That's a little hyperbolic, but I do believe this country needs to pay way more attention to college baseball. You want 24/7 electricity? Check out post-Memorial Day college baseball. The Road to Omaha. It's the best, and it started this weekend around the country with regional tournaments.

On that note, let's go ahead and head on out to Athens, where Georgia's Tre Phelps gave the Bulldogs the lead Sunday against Liberty with a mammoth home run, and then promptly got ejected for an ... exuberant ... celebration while rounding the bases.

Goodness gracious. First off ... what an absolute nuke from Tre Phelps. That ball still hasn't landed. And what a moment, too.

Regional final. Trip to the Super Regionals on the line. You're at home. You're down a run in the sixth inning. And you just potentially sent your program to the next round of the tournament.

As a baseball player — as an athlete — you dream of those moments. It's something he'll talk about for the rest of his life.

Which is why I think this ejection is pure insanity. Just nuts.
