We now have learned the Mariners enjoy fucking stats.
Well, the Mariners basically told the pythagorean record to fuck off last season
Yeah, but that's not actually a real stat.
THAT'Z WHY TEY BLAY TEH GAMEZ
Ha!

That’s funny because Baker and his blog commenters say it! Ha, that’s why it’s funny!

Welcome to the Twilight Zone.

Today we’ll be looking at the 2008 Seattle Mariners….

longest 9 inning game:

yanks @ boston. 8-18-2006.

Yanks win 14-11.

Total Time: 4 hours 45 minutes.

At least it was a slugfest.

This is just Tits pitching.

I may have to leave.

This shit is making me fall asleep.

I did that once.

Well, more passed out. Still fell off the toilet, though.

Makes this game all the more impressive...

...or pathetic.

Didn't the Mariners set the record against the Orioles about than 10 years ago?

I remember they went 4 hours 27 minutes, or something close to this.

Not surprising Boston and New York now hold the record.

Because of all the TV timeouts

It was probably on ESPN

this reminds me of that epic 18-inning boston game

Except that went 18 innings.

And was really exciting.

And involved two good ballclubs.

Wouldn't it be easier to link the new threads from the old thread?

I mean, I’m not really lazy, but I’d like to be

Usually they do.
Longest extra inning ballgame:

Chicago @ Milwaukee. 05-08-1984

Chicago wins 7-6.

8 hours 6 minutes. (25 innings!)

I hope the Mariners never ever do that

Because I would totally watch every minute of the game and hate myself forever

how about this for a fun game to watch:

Longest Shutout:

Houston @ New York. 04-15-1968

Houston wins 1-0.

24 innings!

how many hits?
22 total hits (11 each team)

Here’s the crazy ass box: Link

thanks, looked it up myself.

what a mind fuck of a game that must have been to watch. And how crushing to sit through that then lose.

Ha! The game was lost on an E6.
favorite thing out of that box score is how

Seaver went 10IP, allowed just 2 hits, 0bb and 3k, and he was shown up by Jim Ray, who came on in relief to pitch 7 innings with 2 hit, 1bb, and 11k

But the Mets' 3 and 4 hitters went a combined 0 for 20.

Ouch.

jesus christ... 25 innings?

do you bring in three starters for that?

holy shit!!!

a 1-2-3 inning.

holy socks, a 123 inning
What the hell is a sports emmy?
Beltre!!!

That’s why he’s King Awesome

almost HR

turns into an almost out double…

I hate the LF wall.

I hope whoever designed it catches AIDS.

Only one way to realize your dreams

Get AIDS, and give it to them yourself.

This is an excellent idea.
The spirit of Jackie Robinson lives on through King Awesome!
"That baby's got a shot at being off the base of the wall!"
Epicly awesome.
That is a horrible thing to do to a baby.
Cmon Sims

it did not ‘coincidentally’ start at 3:42 pm on Jackie Robinson day, don’t be retarded

beltre owooooo

Leave Sims alone >:(
Turbo

will figure out how to hit into a DP in this situation.

Nomo is pitching

He should get a hit

Or a walk.

That works too.

Yeah, it does
Now Richie can hit into a triple play.
Unassisted triple play.

After Mac sends the runners and Sexson lines out to 2B.

Vidro would not be able to get that far
He could strike out into a tripleplay.

Yes. The mariners are the only team ever to have done this.

They Did?

That’s the definition of BAD BASERUNNING

Where do you think that came from?
If that happens

I will laugh

Unfortunately, with Turbo on 1st

It could happen

Huh...

Beltre basically walked over to 3rd.

Ah crap.

Bases loaded, no out.

This is like watching the Seahawks on third and short.

That's more like first and goal.
Thoroughly depressing.
... wtf Vidro?

did you forget to steal?

Again with the power Rangers song?
I would much rather that song not be played at the ballpark.
They play that at Safeco?

That’s so incredibly rad

Not the song you're thinking of, I'm afraid.

That damn song the used int he Power Rangers movie.

It would be, but it's not the theme

it’s the “Trouble” song

:(

Awwwwwwwwwww dammit. How badass would it be if they played the Power Rangers theme?

very badass

If I was a closer…

we better score here...
HERE IT COMES

I’ve been calling it all year!

Shut up!
DAMMIT

I thought he got more of that off the bat

Nomo yaaaay

No mo Nomo awwwww

Kenji WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joltin' Joh!
ALL YOU KENJI HATERS CAN SUCK MY ASSHOLE!
You want Washburn to suck your asshole?
funniest post of the day, maybe month
hahahahahaha
If he goes up the Hersey Highway he's gonna run into a big brown truck.
Free Jeff Clement
Johjima rips it!
KENJI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JOHJIMA_SAN!!!!!!!
It took you long enough, Johjima
AWESOME!

to think i almost benched him today on the fantasy team.

Uh Dave?

It’s not hard to go first to third on a double

It is if you're Big Richie.
It is for Richie
Man

This is fun.

Kenji

BA at .200

WFB's new gameday photo

Looks weird without a ghoatee

looks wierd without a goatse?

i bet

when did Willie turn into a professional hitter?
today...

...no worries, he’ll retire tomorrow.

in the techincal sense?
yeah

starts out 0-2, gets 3 balls, fouls 2 back, then gets a walk, pretty impressive.
Also the two singles to right, were pretty good as well

Yuni grand slam.

I demand it right now.

If you didn't say anything

That first pitch was gone

Fine difference here.

I wasn’t calling a grand slam, I was demanding a grand slam. When you call a play, it never happens.

I call a 1-2-3 dp right here
2 hours and we're halfway home!
Who the fuck are these guys?
Awww....Jeez Yuni.
that's a run
Have we scored double-digit runs yet in a game?
nope

let’s hope we get it today

Yay!

We did it!

This is what the Royals are saying to us tonight

Take Anything You Want

ahhahahahh

Hilarious!

lol, it keeps getting better and better!
Wtf is Yabuta doing

what a goofball

it's like the ball was stuck to his hand, then it fell off.
NO!

BRANDON MORROW IS NOT READY TO GO!

I'm sensing MUCH Morrow-related GTE in the near future...
what happened

My music is too loud, i can’t hear my tv

I don't know, I'm not listening either

but I’d bet morrow is going coming up sooner than we’d like in any case.

you know what i mean
dave and mike were debating whether or not morrow was ready.
Way to be alert Willie
Vidro in a run-down?

That’s embarassing….for the other team.

it was kenji wasn't it?
Yea.

I’m blind.

when was the last time you saw a catcher

put a tag on a runner at 3rd?

Ken Huckabay on Derek Jeter - opening day 2003.
oh, bad swing jose, bad swing.
LOPEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Double didgets!
loafie!

lineup is on FIRE

Loafie comes thru!

offense wooo

Mother of God it's only the bottom of the 5th.
I wonder how this became a common thing to say

who is God’s mother anyways?

Alyssa Milano, I think
Oh man.

That was priceless Someone get a screencap of that.

Nice handstand young Buck
That was a pretty fast reaction by people in the dugout
Hey there's a delivery guy here from Seattle Condiments

He said he’s got an extra 80 gallons of rape sauce?

Should we let him in?

Mo played for a long time after that incident.
Raul against lefties

Hilarious.

Also, HYPHEN TIME!

RRS time!

why not put a sucky pitcher in…

Because RRS has been warming up

and when a pitcher gets warmed up, we’re going to use him dammit!

I was hoping they'd give Dickey an extended look

But if they plan on starting him Friday and they started Baek on Sunday, there isn’t really another long man to go with other than RRS.

Adam Jones

just went yard for Baltimore.

Don't tell me these things :(
What a coincidence

Erik Bedard just took some Boniva.

Is that French for Boner?
No wonder why he has a bad hip.

He must like it rough.

Who know all this fucking the man talk would come back to haunt us
Doh

I benched him today.

what the hell?

“you get punched by the other players” for going after a ball in their dugout…??

Only in the negro leagues.

Am I right, am I right people?

rimshot

Is this like going into a pile up for a fumble only to have your fingers broken by someone?
Normally it's probably true, but we're already kicking their ass out on the field, so..

shrug

Jesus, we're pulling Batista after 84 pitches?

Is Hargrove back in the dugout?

The team's got a plane to catch at some point tomorrow, I'm sure.
Bloomquist has had quite a day on the basepaths I see

Take a retard to the ballpark day

Put in Corco

or Rhodes, even if they suck it won’t matter (hopefully that doesn’t jinx us)

RRS
Care to elaborate?
nope, that's as far as his thought process goes

drunk off his ass, taking pictures of road signs…

I'm not drunk, just buzzed

and I’m clearly not driving right now

How does a baseball in the bullpen end up on the field?
David Cone decided to come out of retirement.
Sims is such a dork.

I love it.

Jeff might as well turn the game on now

there’s no fucking way he finishes watching it

Way ahead of you
Good

I was worried.

Matthew warned me

Thank you, Matthew.

goddamn it hyphen

now it’s semi-close… wtf 2 out hits…

We're facing Cupcake tomorrow?

ICHIRO NEEDS JASON ELISON!

WHY ARE WE PUTTING SEAN GREEN IN
Look at the score.
SEAN GREEN IS TIRED
You wanted to know why.
The score doesn't justify the decision
I never said it did.
Who do you go with

Corcoran has thrown back to back days
Baek started on Sunday and went 5 innings
Dickey is starting on Friday
Rhodes and Lowe are the only other two really available.

I would have kept Batista in for at least another inning...
We couldn't handle another inning.
Slow game is Slooooooow
Adam Jones would....
I don't know whether to be pissed at Raul or not.
ok, this inning can end anytime now

Green again??

The best feature of MLB.tv:

Taking the game with you to the crapper.

some of us have PCs >:-(
haha

that might be worth 15 bucks even though I live in Seattle

blackout :(
Wouldn't that be a brown-out instead?
proxy that shit son
Whenver I see guys like Raul or Richie run

I think.. c’mon, professional athlete…. run faster
but then again, I think I’m faster than WFB or Ichiro, so maybe I’m just cocky…

nobody was hyphenated today
I died in the fourth

And awoke an hour and a half later…in the sixth.

I hate Miguel Batista

The 4 run bottom inning didn't help matters.
Yeah, we actually had a positive contribution to a long inning
I am genuinely shocked

How sad is that?

I know

I didn’t even post the shocked face, because it looked like mine at the time

That swing was hilarious.
If Richie played Little League

He would have been benched for a week after throwing the bat like that

Yabutaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Dave Sims is so white.

Billy Butler should wear a paper bag over his head.
AO just took a terrible dive.

Please don’t do that again Alex

He didn't dive

he was crushing the ice with his chest in an attempt to knock the Flyers off their skates.

Hahaha I hope so

That better not happen again

McLaren WTF?

I swear to god Green is going to be gassed by July at the rate of innings he’s pitching…

Green this year is throwing nothing but fastballs.
BONDS WILL PLAY FOR THE MARINERS!

Not Detroit.

I know somewhere he could play and still be on the west coast
"Series won by Bobbie Thomson"

I’ve never heard of that city before

Man I feel sorry for Sims.

He has to go to great lengths to get Blowers to contribute to the broadcast.

I heard rumors of another Sims hat

Explain.

Someone got a screenshot of it in the first thread

Its just an M’s hat… Looked like maybe an ST one

Not great, but encouraging

Needs more weird.

Definitely... put some wings on that thing or something
There are screenshots of this.

If it's so cold

he should wear a tuque.

Probably just trying to keep the sun out of his eyes.
Isn't that what the black is for?
He wore that on Sunday also

I was sitting in 238 (yay free tickets) and kept looking in to see if he had a hat. God that game sucked

Sean Green has now thrown 15+ straight

87-89 mph fastballs.

And right after I type this he throws a curve...
I didn't even know he threw one
The moose is totally hitting all that jailbait

except the fatty on the left

Mariner Moose is a pedophile
That's okay

As long as he keeps busy

I thought the same thing
Just him in a dim-lit room with some little kids...

nothing to worry about

no USSM link?
what?
oh wow

The Moose DMZ was once touched in an inappropriate manner, or so the story goes…

holy shit that was a failure
rearrange and delete words at your lesiure
eh?
Let me make a second attempt

The Moose once touched DMZ in an inappropriate manner, or so the story goes…

DMZ once touched The Moose in an inappropriate manner?
or so the story goes...
ahhh I see

I don’t remember that story… I’m sure the moral of it was to never go to the “Moose’s Den” without a chaperone

JOHJIMA ITS ABOUT FUCKING TIME
KENJII

how many pitches has he seen this game? 6?

Fuck Yeah KENJI
Jimmy Gobble -> Future Mariner

I’m calling it now

I'm kinda mad

I am scheduled off at 7 and was hoping the game would be over before I left. Now I’m probably going to have to wait.

How to pitch around Willie Bloomquist

By the Royals

Dave Sims...

Did I hear the correctly?

While showing the Moose surrounded by a bunch of adolescent girls:

“Hey, the Moose looks warm! I wonder if he needs anymore company???”

Whatta perv.

Slow.... game....

just win already

Trey Hillman looks like he drinks oil for breakfast
He spits a lot of stuff that looks like oil, even before the game starts.

I think you’re on to something.

(Does realize it’s chew)

Mike Richards is fucking the man
And calling him the N word

when he gets frustrated

but he's not a racist
God

if the Sharks lose I’m not gonna have anyone left to root for.

[I'm not gonna say Ducks, it wont be funny]
haha well I think it is funny
There's always the Ducks right?

They’re pretty close to SD

Death would be too good for you
Thats what my parents tell me
Root for us

We’ve got a good young team that beats the shit out of the other team.

Also, it’s not like we have a history with then Sens…..

Better you than the Ducks
Better a group of racist womanizing neo-Naxis

than the Ducks

EEEEEEEENNNNNNNDDDDDD
PLEASE

HIT INTO A DOUBLE PLAY ICHIRO

YOU SUCK ICHIRO
Ichiro hurts this team by...

Dammit too obvious.

Who knew a 10-6 game could be so boring?
LOPEZ IT'S TIME TO SUCK AGAIN FOR AN AT BAT
Mariners

these guys are good when they don’t swing!

Brad Wilkerson for player/coach
Brad Wilkersuck. Brad Wilsuckson. Brad Suckerson. Suck Wilkerson

Glad that’s out of the way.

Suck Suckersuck
last year for the month of April

the offense walked a total of 39 times
47 walks coming into today’s game…

now that’s a turnaround.

Wow.

I rode my bike home, went to the store, the bank, the PO and the bottle shop and this games not over yet.

And I missed some hyphen action. Damn.

You picked a good outing to skip.
What the deuce is a bottle shop?
In PA you have bottle shops (for 1-2 six packs) and beer distributors where you get more (like kegs).

Separate from wine/liquor stores… It’s pretty fucked up.

oh you're in Pennsylvania

I see.

Did you know it’s also illegal to bring alcohol into Pennsylvania from another state?

Yep. Not that it's stopped me.
I don't think it's stopped anyone
Did you know in Pennsylvania it's illegal to steal another man's horse while drunk?
I would hope so
...and pilot it?
That's completely reasonable
What about stealing another man's horse while tripping balls?
I am unsure.
It's also illegal to kill somebody there
In Harrisburg PA it's against the law to have sex with a truck driver in a tollbooth.

That one always tears me up a bit. Where else are truck drivers supposed to get some?

in their truck
When I started reading that

I totally thought it was going to be about sodomy.

Corco's mom's house
as long as my mom consents
I'd be suffering

a heart attack if I had done all that…. heck the riding the bike would have done me in.

I'm feeling some chest pains from the score.. The M's have scored 11? Is that right?

We have….. offense?

its just a tease

they’re trying to keep the average per game above 4… since they didn’t score much the last two they’re balancing it out.

WILLIE!

Nobody else on this team tags up there. Willie == GRITTY

The cameraman tracks flys worse than Raul.
Alright... Lean like a JoLo!
Lopez: 3 Sac flys

This is a good day for him, right?

For all of his patience

Lopez has only a 10 point BA/OBA differential.

still better than last year when his OBP may as well have been lower than his BA
STOP SACRIFICING

the Mayans sacrificed and now there’s none of them left.

Their calendar may/may not be correct.
Way to go out on a limb
Didn't they say the world would end in 2012?
Which is why we should reserve judgement on their society.
I look forward to celebrating the 2012 Mariners championship
it isn't the end of the world, it is the end of an Era of humanity

a new Era will begin once it is over.

Since everything but a few of the Mayan books were destoryed. It is impossible to know what is coming next or even what the new age will mean.
It isn’t the end of the world, only the world that we have known up to that time.

The world I've known has been cruel

I welcome the new era.

Read the gamethread from the top of ninth last night

And you will realize how out of place this post is.

Chris Snelling

Ninth inning pinch hit FB… I love that little bastard

That is too awesome
and now they came back and won it...

fuck the m’s go phillies

And I was supposed to go to that game
but

did he blow his knee out rounding third on the trot?

AJ 1-1, HR, 2 BB
4-4, 3 BB last 7 ABs
funny how that happens

one bedards gets injured

Jones' hip has now regenerated
This game over yet?

i’ve just been downloading songs off the end’s websites for the past half hour…

Hey, that guy was flipping off the camera

THROW HIM OUT!

Uh oh.

Arthur Lee Rhodes sighting.

He's got 5 runs to work with
:(

Arthur will make his debut not wearing #53 :(

Rhodes is warming up?

How’s that possible?

HEY RHODES IT'S APRIL

APRIL THE OPPOSITE OF OCTOBER

Wouldn't that be January?
No?
yes...

or at least MARCH

Smarch.
Blarch
the badness was overstated
How did that end this year anyway?
Have we been permabanned from the contest?
I'd assume so
I would hope not
Me too, WE MUST DESTROY SEATTLE BUBBLE NEXT YEAR

http://seattlebubble.com/blog/bullsbearsponies/

Links to SeattleBubble from here don't work.
October: month #10

April: month #4

Month #10 + half a year = month #4

END...END!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know if you mean to quote MST3K

but I’m going to pretend that you’re quoting MST3K.

of course i am
excellent
I can't recall what movie though.
The Wild World of Batwoman
I've never seen that one!
It's a truly awful movie

Portions of it are in fact simply cut from other movies

I knew we kept you around for a reason

suicide jokes and MST3K trivia.

I would never dream to challenge Matthew's role as MST3K quiz master

That just happened to be one of my favorite MST3K moments

Do I have the rotation wrong

Or are we throwing out Silva, Washburn, and Batista in LA?

Dickey

Then Washburn and Batista…

Felix and Silva vs Oakland

Replace Silva with Dickey
Ugh
Then again I guess beating OAK is actually more important right now.
Fun fact

Arthur Rhodes:

LDS play: 8.1 IP 1.04 ERA
LCS play: 8.2 IP 8.64 ERA

Fun Fact

Arthur Rhodes doesn’t actually exist

I wish
He only exists as long as you believe he does. If we want him to do well, all we have to do is believe! Believe!
*Power of imagination not applicable in Yankee Stadium
Good, Oakland lost today.
Le'ts trade Morrow for Soria
Please be over soon.

I have homework to do before Deadliest Catch starts.

i can imagine dave sitting around all day..

...watching viral videos laughing to himself.

I'd love to see a 2girls1cup reaction video of Dave
hahahahha I'd pay money to see that
"back in the day you'd get punched for that"
I choose to believe that video does not exsist.
but it does
Why must you surpress my freedom of choice?
Why? It's a film classic
I jsut watched that Gathright video

Wow

I can't believe Sims was talking about YouTube on the air
I can't believe I missed it.
I like how he was talking to Joey about Jackie Robinson and how important his influence on the game has been

and also “How’d you jump over that car?”

Putz not in. Game still in question.

Think Rhodes can hold a 5 run lead?

nope

he’s going to give it up and send the game into Extra innings.

Don't say that

Extra innings after this game would be hell

welcome to being a Mariner fan
ARTHUR LEE RHODES

I’m excited because I like Arthur Rhodes, but bummed because he sucks

THIS GAME NEEDS MORE CAIRO
Defensive replacement for Ritchie

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

Is Ibanez still in left field?

If so, fail.

but less so than usual
Soooo if Rhodes makes his return

but nobody is in attendance to see it – does he really return?

wow... thats definitely not 17,000
No wonder Rondell White sucked last year

no Rhodes

That would also explain David Justice's house burning down
So one there was a fan before 2003?
I honestly tried to get what you were saying.

I still don’t know.

89 MPH fastball.

Awesome.

it's only the old people clapping
Arthur Rhodes?

What is this, 2001?

Okay, I’m going to make myself cry.

I say what the fuck

do your thing Arthur, let’s go to extras.

"Certainly he's not going to shrink from a big spot when you need an out"

You’d think so.

I'm lucky to have never witnessed either Rhodes Yankee Stadium meltdown.
My band name will be the "The Arthur Rhodes Yankee Stadium"
*"The Arthur Rhodes Yankee Stadium Experience"
Mine is Jeff Cirillo Ruined My Life
Mine is 'The Rhyming Assholes'

And then we won’t rhyme!

I witnessed them, but luckily I was like 12

so I took it easier than I do a normal loss now.

I was fortunate that I had to take a shit.
Is SafeCo's radar gun off?

Or is he actually throwing 90+?

Gameday says 89/90
He's like a scholar!
A Rhodes Scholar!

/Puntasm

yeah..i bet his adrenaline is pumping...

...against the royals with a 5 run lead.

I was gonna say.. adrenaline pumping and he is STILL only hitting 90?

sigh..

I wish we hadn't applauded his return

a vampire can’t enter your house unless invited.

Even us statheads can irrationally hate an otherwise good player.

Refer to this thread the next time you get called a robot.

So I was looking at Bonds' hit charts

I think he would’ve had 4 more HR in SAFECO

So how many letters should we write,

letting Bavasi know that we need Bonds or Pepe dies?

I already mailed mine
I figured we'll kill Pepe anyway.

Just to let BB know that we mean business

ANY OTHER OUTFIELDER WOULD HAVE CAUGHT THAT
In defence of Rhodes

95% of LFs catch that

Bonds would have caught that
He probebly does catch that first hit.
Bye bye Arthur.
Well, that was nice while it lasted.
This is where the fan hits the shit.
mo vaugh would have caught that...

...running from 1st.

needs wheels
But that would imply that it can move
I missed the introduction of this meme

does this reference ibanez or sexson? makes more sense for sexson.

Raul
Truth be told

I was inspired by watching Ed Sprague play left field from high a top the 300 level.

oh. Well, here's richie.

hahahahahahaha

too mobile

Depressingly immobile

it needs a push

If we're going for an accurate Raul analogy

you’re going to have to photoshop it on to the top of a broken down Subarban

OK good to see him back

now he can retire

Nobody trusts you, season-ruiner
NOOOOOOOOOO.

just end the game!

Lol, it's Lowe.
wtf happened

why’d rhodes get taken out?

throwing the suck pitch
JJ is wondering the same thing
Because he's a washed-up old lefthander.
Mac just wanted to embarrassed him.
I approve.
Holy shit this game is still going?
lowe in, game over.
Why is it Lowe?

Aren’t we up by 5 runs?

who else is it gonna be?
Keep Rhodes in?

We have 5 runs to work with, I’d rather save Lowe when we have the A’s and Angels up next.

You obviously have never heard of history.
Don't worry, Lowe will definitely pitch about 9 innings during those games

..wait, you want him rested for those games? Hah.

I was at the game with the earing incident

I had no idea what the fuck was going on.

Love the randomness
Well it was Rhodes
So today is pretty much former Mariner day..

Rhodes comes back, AJ homers, Girffey homered, Doyle homered.

And it sort of doesn't count but...

Varitek just hit the possible game winner in Cleveland.

i was at the game that rhodes lost...

oh wait..

Jeez, I fall asleep in the 3rd, wake up three hours later and it's the 9th.
fucking finally
WE BEAT THE ROYALS YESSSSSSSSSSSS
"Game over, Thank you very much." -Sims
38 hours 42 minutes later.

woooooo

About Fucking time
Go away Krueger.

I think thats my favorite part of the game, when MLBtv cuts him off

GAME OVER

GOOD GOD

M’s WIN!!!!!

i like how mlb.tv just cuts off.
You don't pay for the post game wrap up!
i was actually being serious.
You can listen to the KOMO radio post-game all the way through

Not that I want to watch the FSN post-game, but I do find it kind of weird…

so tomorrow's callup

is going to be Morrow….. (my guess)

Reed is playing for Tacoma.

FSN fawning over Rhodes and Willie?

Nice annoucer banter:

Announcer: “Can you think of anyone who impacted more lives than Jackie Robinson?”

Me: “Hitler?”

...

That was the LONGEST

3 hour and 25 minute game I’ve ever witnessed. Seriously, that’s not really even a long game, but Jesus Christ was that loooooooooooooooooooong

And we won by 5

It was so brutal

So...

finishing work, taking the hour trip home, going to the gym, working out, coming home, showering up, and getting dinner all took the same amount of time as this game.

This actually makes me sad to realize the opportunity cost I’ve incurred watching so many M’s games over the years. Fucking Tits… Making me utilize my college education…

Ass.

Cardinals / Brewers

...both teams have their pitcher hitting 8th.

Prince Fielder needs a DH
Not if Ryan Braunn gets to it first.
6 of Carlos Pena's 9 hits have left the yard
I bet the other three hits feel resentment for not living up to the other hits' example
The other three hits dickishly mock Rocco Baldelli
Because they have better mitochondira
sweet sweet mitochondria
Mariners offense had good mitochondria today
Showoffs
I was waiting for "nerds"...

but I’ll take it!

Oh, I was talking about the mitochondria
Haha oh...

but I’ll still take it!

I hate when mitochondria gets uppity

Know your role. You’re nothing without oxygen.

Bitch.

That required a “bitch” at the end. It shows you mean business.

I'm more the passive-aggressive type
Wuss
I'll insult you by ignoring you
So technically you already failed
I'm still learning
It looks like you're not the only one

:(

If the Caps lose I'm going to have a lot more free time this next month and a half
Time to write that novel?
if by "write" you mean "do" and by "that novel" you mean "lines" then yes
As long as they're off a supermodel

I have no problem with this

I do live in California

homesick yet?

Less so than when I was freezing my ass off a few months ago

but yes, a bit

What's wrong with the Flames/Sharks?
Nothing

my enthusiasm for them just doesn’t compare to that which I have for Ottawa and AO, though.

Ah.
The Sharks are my #3 team in the playoffs, for what it's worth
Being on our favorite teams list

appears to be the playoff kiss of death

I don't know why we don't live in Vegas

Stupidity, I guess.

You don't have to live in Vegas to play in Vegas

That’s like saying you have to live with the stripper. Screw that noise.

The point is we don't seem to be taking advantage of our unpleasant gift
Guess we'll see the Ducks magically face the Leafs int he finals then.
If that happened you'd never see me around here ever again
Did we ever settle on your epitaph?

I know it’s gone through a few iterations

Killed Duck, Saved Millions
BOOOO!

Go Flames

die die die in the face

I just got 10 text messages from my girlfriend...

(who’s at the Indians game) yelling at me about throwing the Youkilis home run ball back. This happened two years ago.

I dislike his beard.
I dislike his person
He'd be a fine Mariner though.

Shit would get Rapey at the Safe.

Thats no beard

thats a fucking possum

I suspect a small band of heavily armed Banditos use his beard as a hideout
Do the banditos count against roster restrictions?
Unclear

Nobody in the League has ever spotted them because noone can stare at that ugly mug long enough to get a good look

Actually the possum appears to be asleep
Does Mark Shapiro throw shit when they lose like Billy Beane does?
Could he throw Chris Antonelli in our general direction?
*Antonetti

:(

Jarome Iginnnnnnnnnla

oh hay the M’s won too

So if you were Doyle, what Philly bar would you be at right now...

I want to go meet him

I assume he's in a stasis chamber some where waiting to be dethawed for the next game
or

God that was a terrible movie.
If only they could've given you prior warning before you watched
My own damn fault.

That’s what happens to me on Saturday afternoons with nothing better to do. Watch crappy movies on MyQ2.

My old ex loved it

That’s when I knew it was time I realized I was just in that relationship for the sex

He's at the airport bar,

waiting to be shipped to his latest team.

The airport bars are mad expensive...

8.00 drafts. I save money on my flights only to waste it away waiting for the stupid delayed planes.

Yesterday's game thread > Today's
way to let everyone down ningwers
Hey now

I’m not on the payroll around here. I don’t owe you nothin.

We have a payroll?

God damn my accountant.

My late tidbits

Not everything on the screen at M’s game is as gold as Bradtastic or Fuck Blast. See: Sterling Silva, Beltremendous

Guillen still sucks at OF. Teahen isn’t very good at it either.

Rainiers game

Tacoma just put up a 9 spot against Julio Mateo…. Wlad is 1-2 with a double and a walk 2rbi…. Clement is 1-3 with a HR….. Rohrbaugh hasn’t given up a hit yet…
oh and Chen has returned from his concussion…

Way to Sims up the no-hitter.
Things seem to be looking up in Tacoma

atleast there is a future to look forward too.

Pay attention to the Rockies/Padres game
99 pitches for Wolf through 7

I don’t think he’ll make it.

I meant in the seventh.

If he doesn’t, it could be a combination effort.

He won't

but that doesn’t mean the team can’t. Especially since a big lead means no Hoffman.
