And no matter how hot the girl is, if she comes over, we start making out, and she breaks out a strap-on…. That’s pretty much the end of the date right there.
that the reason he took every fight he reffed seriously, even the no-name fights in po-dunk towns, is, “Each fight is the most important fight in the entire world… to two people.”
if Morrow just aims for the center of the plate every pitch and hopes it ends somewhere in the strike zone. The way Johjima is setting up, that’s the way it looks.
The coach of Kawamoto technical high school threw in the towel to spare his pitcher’s arm with his team losing 66-0 with just one batter out in the bottom of the second.
The hapless hurler had already sent down over 250 pitches, allowing 26 runs in the first inning and 40 in the second before Kawamoto asked for mercy. "At that pace the pitcher would have thrown around 500 pitches in four innings," Kawamoto’s coach was quoted as saying. "There was a danger he could get injured."
GEE, YOU THINK? Is this guy the Japanese Dusty Baker?
Why does anyone swing at K-Rod’s crap till they have a 2 strike count? That should be the rule. Don’t swing till he’s got two strikes on you. He’d never get anyone out.
but while in college at UNLV some theatre kids had a party and I passed out after several drinks on the floor. I woke up in the morning with the host’s cat sitting on my face. I like to tell people that that was the only pussy I ever ate in UNLV Theatre.
i like loemoade. whats wrong in enjoying what I like? much like a fine ass women, its all in the eye of the beholder. but on the bright side at least i’m not corco amirite
Anyway, I passed out somewhere around the 17th-18th inning. I just now woke up with my face buried in my couch with the sun shining in burning my eyes.
Needless to say, the M’s game last night avoided being the most boring baseball game of the day. I feel bad for the Padres fans and workers who stayed at the stadium as long as they did to see their team lose.
Silva efficient tonigh.

Flesh Eating Bonds?
JI - April 17, 2008
I'm being efficient
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Is Bonds' flesh being eaten
...like say a Chirst-like figure?
or is he, say, a zombie? or a zombie victim?
JI - April 17, 2008
I'll go with the latter
but I’ll concede that it wasn’t thought out very well.

How many times a day do you think Dave Sims says, "Well Stroked"?
Smegmalicious - April 17, 2008
At home or at work?
CapSea - April 17, 2008
Total
Smegmalicious - April 17, 2008
I have a feeling Sims optimistically narrates his own love life.
So… often.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
To his wife?
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
whatever the answer is, hopefully its always in the booth
jtopps - April 17, 2008

I'm content with the fact
That apparently I was right about Carlos Silva all along and everyone else was not.
HA.
Sorry, but HA.
At least for 1 month.
HA.
marinator - April 17, 2008
His ERA has been good
his pitching has not
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Maybe he's faced a couple cupcake lineups
Still, can’t argue with the results, and I will brag until Silva gets battered.
marinator - April 17, 2008
Vidro is interested in your proposition and would like to subscribe to your menu updates
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Vidro isn't fat!
Now Andruw Jones, that guy could use a couple days off of the buffet table!
marinator - April 17, 2008
I must say
you are off to a hot start in 2008 game thread commenting.

Let's not tempt the baseball gods shall we?

I would prefer you escape this inning with 0 runs allowed Carlos

Wasn't Silva supposed to never walk guys?

I don't know why people complain about RickRolls
I always listen to the whole song – I love it
I honestly wish the Mariners would play RickRoll – better than goddamn Zombie Nation… The Mets don’t know what they gave up
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Because they're annoying and totally played out.
JI - April 17, 2008
You also think strap-ons are the third best apparel on women.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
You put two women in a room together
And try to think of something better for them to wear

Corco - April 17, 2008
How about me?
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
You would only get in my way.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
If you were there, I definitely would be leaving.
Not because you any better, but because you are a guy.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
Grammar is starting to get sloppy.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
I think the important thing here
Is that Wilder and Librocrat are roleplaying a scenario where they are both in a room together looking for sex. Where will this go?
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Oh hell no!
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
In your dreams, tonight.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
No way, I'm not Dungeon Mastering this fandango
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
....What?
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I'm okay with simply "nothing."
And no matter how hot the girl is, if she comes over, we start making out, and she breaks out a strap-on…. That’s pretty much the end of the date right there.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
She'd probably freak out the 27th time you called her by your ex's name
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
If she can stand all 27, she's a keeper.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I want to take you to Paris and make love to you under the Eiffel Tower
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
As I said in the other post,
I have an irrational hatred towards the French. So this scenario is less likely. Choose a different landmark.

I need more pictures of me being crassly happy and enjoying myself at sites of extreme tragedy. Africa already banned me.

The Vern Fonk comericals are awesome.
I was referring to the bunch of retarded fans singing.

Sorry guys
Didn’t know people here felt so strongly for Vern Fonk. Lo Siento.
Fin - April 17, 2008
Don't fuck with Fonk :o

That is why they are awesome.

Smegmalicious - April 17, 2008
It says on Gameday
Fin - April 17, 2008
Uh Norton can play third base
like I can can play the trombone.
JI - April 17, 2008
WHICH IS TO SAY THAT I CAN'T PLAY THE TROMBONE
JI - April 17, 2008
So you're saying he's rusty?
Smegmalicious - April 17, 2008
I knew I choose the trombone for a reason.
JI - April 17, 2008
They had a concert at my old job and a 16 year old girl was singing a song
The only lyric I remember is:
‘On my own, like a rusty trombone’
It was a love song.
Smegmalicious - April 17, 2008
Come on, someone hit a funk blast.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
It sure seems like it has been awhile
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
In about 10 years
It’s going to be called a “Fonk Blast”
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I wonder how much that'd cost
for that sponsership

Holy shit I'd be down

Is he still not a prospect?
Majic - April 17, 2008
no
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Or is the proper answer to this question "yes"?
I hate when they’re phrased like this.
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
You are correct sir.
JI - April 17, 2008
BUT MARINERS REVOLUTON HAD HIM AS THEIR #1 PROSPECT
JI - April 17, 2008
no
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
no
Corco - April 17, 2008
Wait...he's not not a prospect?
Majic - April 17, 2008
In my mind he's not NOT a prospect
but he’s definitely not a prospect
Corco - April 17, 2008
He's still not someday possibly unbeing becoming not a prospect of prospecting.
Smegmalicious - April 17, 2008
I dunno, I see him as somewhere between "prospect" and "career minor leaguer"
Corco - April 17, 2008
Way to narrow the pool
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Nope.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Nick Green did that last year
A lot of PCL players do that.
Gomez - April 17, 2008
"He holds the record held by millions."
Ugh.
CapSea - April 17, 2008

good or bad? Might as well use him while he’s hot
Fin - April 17, 2008
Flip him to Atlanta.
CapSea - April 17, 2008

Corco - April 17, 2008
That will never get old.
JI - April 17, 2008
He's not doing so hot this year.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
He has younger twin brothers.
Had classes with both of them.
Total douchebags.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Most baseball players

No the twins were failed track and field athletes.
Still douchebags.
BrianL - April 17, 2008

marinator - April 17, 2008
My league doesn't count Ks
Fin - April 17, 2008
Just Era, wins, whip, and saves
I know, casual fan stats, but what can I do about it.

What kind of league do you play in that doesn't count K's?!?
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
Jon Garland's league
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Yep - rec'd
Classic.

Yeah what kind of pussy ass league is this?
marinator - April 17, 2008
Just my friend irl's league
He doesn’t go on baseball blogs.

Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
It can only be "Again" if he's ever not.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I've actually been sober for the last two weeks
hence me puking
In fact, I think the last time I drank any alcohol was the day before opening day at the LL event
Corco - April 17, 2008
Good job.
I drank quite a bit yesterday. 4 Shots of Vodka, one shot of captain morgans, Some crappy beverage called “Joose” and PBR.
Needless to say I did not feel good in the morning.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
yeah I'm looking forward to class at 9 AM tomorrow
Corco - April 17, 2008
see? this is dumb.
Matthew - April 17, 2008
I only have class from 9 to 10 tomorrow
and it’s just Econ it’s fucking easy I’ll probably just skip
Corco - April 17, 2008
You are alone.
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Not just in the immediate sense - there is no God and you have no purpose
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008

Because he's scrappy
And he hustles.

Fett42 - April 17, 2008
Grit! to break up the DP!
Majic - April 17, 2008
Hella gritty.
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
Sounds like a Gwen Stefani song
Majic - April 17, 2008
Woo grit.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
....ok....
Goose - April 17, 2008
wow
never see that called.
Matthew - April 17, 2008
The look on Geren's face
I’ve seen that look on DMZ’s face. It’s a look of nonplussed resignation.
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Veteran grit
I don’t see these youngsters doing that.
Fin - April 17, 2008
LOPEY!
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Now pitching for the Rockies:
Callix Crabbe
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
FINALLY
Actually, wait, isn’t he an outfielder?
Corco - April 17, 2008
Their bullpen got blown up?
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Oh wait Yahoo was giving me bad info
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
Yeah Crabbe A) plays for the Padres and B) isn't pitching
Corco - April 17, 2008
NO!
Majic - April 17, 2008
Crabbe plays for the Padres
Whatever.
He attended Manatee Jr. College.
yuniform - April 17, 2008
Wooooo Lopez!
BrianL - April 17, 2008
LOAFIE IS KICKING ASS TODAY
Gomez - April 17, 2008
God I love Lopez.
I also love drawing the infield in.
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
Lopez!11!!1one
Majic - April 17, 2008
This is the most boring pounding ever.
Goose - April 17, 2008
That's what
forget it
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
I think you're forgetting Tuesday.
yuniform - April 17, 2008
Its like watching the M's getting routed
but somehow, they manage to be on the other side of that.
Fin - April 17, 2008
that's why she left you dude
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Is it too late to say
That’s what she said?
Fin - April 17, 2008
I..........
I got nothing.
Goose - April 17, 2008
THAT’S WHAT YOU SAID TO HER
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Well played sir.
Well played.
Goose - April 17, 2008
so, she pounded you?
is this going back to your strap-on fetish?
Matthew - April 17, 2008
No, the first two angles did not show it.
Fuckers. The first two didn’t show it clearly. It’s not like that play happened three different times.
Faux - April 17, 2008
hot diggity!
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Is that Lopez's 3rd opposite field hit of the game?
He is showing he can hit everywhere this season.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
Jose is nasty
Just about as nasty as this game
cwel87 - April 17, 2008
Squinty, why are you burning RRS?
I hate to say it, but RHODES! USE RHODES!
BrianL - April 17, 2008
But you need veteran-ness in clutch situations.
RRS just can’t handle the pressure.
Faux - April 17, 2008
RRS says "Fuck You Squinty"
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Needs more Aussie slang.
Mariner John - April 17, 2008
No, Baek plz

Fett42 - April 17, 2008
Does Neihaus wear eyeshadow?
I love the guy, but he surely has a face for radio.
Majic - April 17, 2008
He's slowly transforming
into a diminutive hunchbacked Dr. Frank-N-Furter
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Does anyone else find the salsa highlight music comical?
Gomez - April 17, 2008
RRS CAN'T PITCH IN NON-PRESSURE SITUATIONS!
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
"My leverage index, it's too low! I'm powerless!!!"
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Is HHH at this game?
Goose - April 17, 2008
silva the comedian, it would seem
basebliman - April 17, 2008
Felix holding a bat is comedy in itself
Gomez - April 17, 2008
he's saying, "what's wrong with the A's? I could hit you for god's sake!"
basebliman - April 17, 2008
He's like a prepubescent Zambrano
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
He pitches like Zambrano with control
Gomez - April 17, 2008
It's like Thor holding a lightning rod
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
Travis Buck looks like a rock star
Majic - April 17, 2008
GO DEVILS!
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Not after that at bat
Hypenated
edddgar - April 17, 2008
pretend that's hyphenated
edddgar - April 17, 2008
Already was
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Is it bad I read hymenated?
Faux - April 17, 2008
Yes
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
not at long as we keep you away from hyphenated bunts
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Who the fuck cares about Arena Football?
Faux - April 17, 2008
Mills Lane once said
that the reason he took every fight he reffed seriously, even the no-name fights in po-dunk towns, is, “Each fight is the most important fight in the entire world… to two people.”
Gomez - April 17, 2008
I'll allow it!
Brings back memories of Celebrity Death Match.
Goose - April 17, 2008
I attribute Celebrity Death Match to MTV's downfall.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
Really, you don't think it was anything to do with shifting their content mix to 89% reality shows
MTV has been dead to me since Headbangers Ball was cancelled (I know it’s back on MTV2 but I’m not a teenager anymore so it’s too late)
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
head bangers ball is awesome
Robert - April 17, 2008
There are plenty other of ways to follow metal now, what with the internet (satellite radio is great too)
but man, as a young’un, Headbanger’s ball was crucial.
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Hard attack on sirius is the best
Really want to go up to vancouver to see giganitour
Robert - April 17, 2008
It was awesome for the first few seasons, then it got played out really quick.
Goose - April 17, 2008
Exactly.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
I would blame Real World and Road Rules
for starting their ridiculous reality show bent
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Real World was good the first couple of seasons.
But then they purposely sought after people who would do anything to be on TV and the quality went down.
Road Rules was great as well until they started doing the Road Rules vs. Real World seasons.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
AFFIRMED
New Orleans was the beginning of the end.
yuniform - April 17, 2008
People in Iowa and shit, Bon Jovi
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Swings and misses
I am confused
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
7 runs. This game is Morrow-approved
Matthew - April 17, 2008
RRS can't hit the zone today.
Thanks Buck.
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
Pitch lower!
Majic - April 17, 2008
WANT MORROW TO PITCH
WANT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT MORROW
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Prophetic
Majic - April 17, 2008
Patience, Jeff.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Someone had a Morrow "Walk the World" photoshop.
Where is it?
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Gotta save that for the walks
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Paging Bretticus...
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Cuuuuurve
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
So far this is the worst episode of the Office I have ever seen.
JI - April 17, 2008
Really?
I’m recording it. I loved last week.
r0ry - April 17, 2008
See I was not a fan of last week
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Last week was awesome.
Let’s hope the final act redeems the whole thing.
JI - April 17, 2008
I have it tivo'd right now.. not too optimistic
The first episode (last week) was completely subpar as well
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Hmm...
I dunno, thought it was pretty damn awkward. Which is good.
r0ry - April 17, 2008
The dinner party was great, I thought.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
So I hereby suggest that we never play Oakland in Oakland again
I’d be cool with games in neutral locations, like Grass Creek or a cemetery.
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Or purgatory
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
How about AT&T Park
They’re not playing any Major League Baseball there.
Gomez - April 17, 2008
The cemetery would be fitting for Rhodes.
MFAN - April 17, 2008
The Forbidden Kingdom
looks terrible.
Coach Owens - April 17, 2008
Nothing with Jet Li and Jackie Chan can be terrible
Even if it is terrible.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I agree.
Cheeseburgers are delicious.
Majic - April 17, 2008
People don't go to those movies for the acting
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
It's going to be so terrible, that it's gonna be awesome.
Goose - April 17, 2008
Terrible != Awesome
Exhibit 1: Dungeons and Dragons the Movie is the most terrible movie ever, but it is not the most awesome movie ever.
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
.....
......
You’re like super-nerd today. What’s up with that?
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I'm just commenting at a higher rate because this game is so awful
Also, fourth edition is out soon, so D&D is on the brain lately
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
It will suck.
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
What is that game?
I thought it was something you did verbally with friends or something.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I was wondering why you were dungeon mastering my fandango.
Good reason.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
FUCK
I seriously thought that was the ninth…
This is like 1408 only more entertaining. And that’s saying something
cwel87 - April 17, 2008
One of these days, Howie Long is going to get arrested for beating his gay lover
And the smoking gun mug shot is going to be HILARIOUS
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Terry Bradshaw better RUN
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Holy shit Joey Devine?
Was there a trade with the Braves I forgot about?
Gomez - April 17, 2008
YEAH YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHO WE GOT
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
I believe it was some three way trade involving Sherrill?
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Mark Kotsay would like to forget it
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
221/291/360 in Atlanta so far
Yep….
Gomez - April 17, 2008
The ump was about to call that safe
but you could see his brain say “fuck it”
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Shpedoinkle!
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
The sky is blue and all the leaves are green
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
my heart's as warm as a baked potato
(sorry couldn’t resist)
Corco - April 17, 2008
You do not believe that we are... innnndians?
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
Yeah they have teepees
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Let's build a snowman we can make him our best friend
we can name him Bob or we can name him Beowulf!
most epic movie ever
Corco - April 17, 2008
Cannibal has the best DVD commentary ever, ever!
The movie is great, but the commentary makes it 5x better
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
yes
I love when the talk about the boom girl’s rack
Corco - April 17, 2008
well, I know what I'm watching after this game is over.
That or some classic MST3K
Matthew - April 17, 2008
You know what they say about sunrise...
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
I need to use this one more
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
how much o'keefe is in this anyways?
Matthew - April 17, 2008
ARE YOU LOOKING AT MY EYE?
Gomez - April 17, 2008
*plop*
Well what the Hell was that supposed to prove?!
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
God I love that movie
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
Is 7 runs enough for Morrow?
Happybelly - April 17, 2008
It's time to Walk the World!
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Kenji! To the opposite field!
When has that EVER happened?
Majic - April 17, 2008
BRANDON MORROW!!
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
3rd game this year with 6 walks
we had 2 all last year.
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Morrow!!!!!!!!!!! :(
MFAN - April 17, 2008
Stirke.... 1?
CapSea - April 17, 2008
Strike...3?
BrianL - April 17, 2008
...Why is this not a walk?
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
K!
Jack cussed.
Majic - April 17, 2008
K?
CapSea - April 17, 2008
Breaking pitches?
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
That Verizon chick is hot.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
Whoa, what was THAT pitch!?
okdan - April 17, 2008
Breaking pitch for a strike?
Who the hell is this guy?
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
Pitches...are moving?
Goose - April 17, 2008
Bendy things
are coming out of Morrow’s hand.
Majic - April 17, 2008
ummm
what’s this thing?
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Whaaaaa?
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
I wonder
if Morrow just aims for the center of the plate every pitch and hopes it ends somewhere in the strike zone. The way Johjima is setting up, that’s the way it looks.
sammy - April 17, 2008
Morrow's throwing strikes and bendy things.
Furthermore, the headless horsemen of the rapture are waiting outside of my house.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Ok he's actually looking good.
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
Remember when we picked this guy
over Lincecum? That was awesome.
Majic - April 17, 2008
WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!
NASTY splitter looking thing
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
WHO THE FUCK WAS THAT
FUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCK!
Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Woa. that was a nice split.
Goose - April 17, 2008
We win the Crater Lake series.
Wow, that doesn’t sound nearly as cool.
Faux - April 17, 2008
This is queer
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
I'm sorry Jeff.
You’re going to have to do a decidedly boring positive writeup.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Split motherfucking fastball
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
What are you growing?
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
A soul hitler.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
I just got an awesome idea for facial hair
hitler stache’s everywhere!
Matthew - April 17, 2008
A love of young boys?
Faux - April 17, 2008
Win!
Majic - April 17, 2008
Beltre's awesome.
SWEEP!
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
Jesus.
CapSea - April 17, 2008
Wooooooo KA!
BrianL - April 17, 2008
WOOO KA!
Morrow looked pretty spectacular right there
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
over!
to the NBC comedies!
yuniform - April 17, 2008
The last act of the Office picked up a little
but it’s easily the worst episode they’ve ever done.
Even then, it’s entirely watchable.
JI - April 17, 2008
NICE play from King Awesome to end it
Morrow actually looked decent too.
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Decent is the correct word.
Most of pitches were nasty, but the two balls that were hit, were hit hard.
Wilder. - April 17, 2008
Looks like Kenji went out there and said: "Holy shit you did you good"
edddgar - April 17, 2008
Brandon Morrow has been replaced by a body snatcher.
No other explanation.
Matthew - April 17, 2008
Thank god thats over.
Goose - April 17, 2008
first sweep since 2003!
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Damn you for beating me to this.
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
Am I crazy to be
impressed by Morrow’s split and breaking ball? Those were actually pretty good—nothing like last year.
redwolf75 - April 17, 2008
No that was really cool
seattlesundevil - April 17, 2008
ROTATION
Couln’t be worse than tits
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
If he was stretched out, I'd say to insert
him instead of Dickey against the Angels.
redwolf75 - April 17, 2008
That post is so yearning to be had
cwel87 - April 17, 2008
And the funny thing was that it was totally
unintentional.
redwolf75 - April 17, 2008
that'd be a
tight fit?
don gato - April 17, 2008
if its only
2 wins, is it still a sweep?
don gato - April 17, 2008
yep
uwbradley - April 17, 2008
works for me
although it would have been kinda weird to see an M’s fan with a broom at McAfee tonight
don gato - April 17, 2008
hell yes
MFAN - April 17, 2008
I think we had a one-game sweep last April
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
that does not sound
possible.
A one game series?
don gato - April 17, 2008
ask the Nationals
JI - April 17, 2008
their opening game sweep
was tremendous
don gato - April 17, 2008
was it a make-up game from cleveland
don gato - April 17, 2008
Texas
Jeff Sullivan - April 17, 2008
Wow we had 0 XBHs
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
and a butt ton of walks
cwel87 - April 17, 2008
Raul said LOPIE
JI - April 17, 2008
MORROW THROWING BENDY THINGS!
WASHBURN IS EXPENDABLE!
BrianL - April 17, 2008
We already had a pitching machine
Fett42 - April 17, 2008
We need Strike-O-Matic
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
We flipped it for Lillibridge.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Foolish.
Now we have no one to confront the Strike-I-Nator
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008
wrong

Strike-o-matic!

those were probably the easiest back-to-back wins
by LI that I can remember.

I know the Pads don't have much offence.
But wha???

That's what you get for hitting Tony Clark cleanup.

Random baseball-related news story of the day:
http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=reu-japanscore&;prov=reuters&type=lgns
redwolf75 - April 17, 2008
66 runs in two innings?
San Francisco would like to sign the entire roster.
BrianL - April 17, 2008
How about this quote?
The coach of Kawamoto technical high school threw in the towel to spare his pitcher’s arm with his team losing 66-0 with just one batter out in the bottom of the second.
The hapless hurler had already sent down over 250 pitches, allowing 26 runs in the first inning and 40 in the second before Kawamoto asked for mercy.
"At that pace the pitcher would have thrown around 500 pitches in four innings," Kawamoto’s coach was quoted as saying. "There was a danger he could get injured."
GEE, YOU THINK? Is this guy the Japanese Dusty Baker?
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Did they substitute baseball for beach balls?
Seriously?
cwel87 - April 17, 2008
They only have 1 pitcher?
JI - April 17, 2008
Sounds like my high school
Mariner John - April 17, 2008
k-rod still sucks. yay.
Matthew - April 17, 2008
When is his arm going to explode?
BrianL - April 17, 2008
so does Olivo
jtopps - April 17, 2008
So Dickey is starting tomorrow.
Who’s getting the start behind the plate, Johjima or Burke?
BrianL - April 17, 2008
Burke
he’s our doug mirabelli
Fin - April 17, 2008
Lucky fucker.
Gets the popup.
Faux - April 17, 2008
God damn it.
Why does anyone swing at K-Rod’s crap till they have a 2 strike count? That should be the rule. Don’t swing till he’s got two strikes on you. He’d never get anyone out.
BrettJMiller - April 17, 2008

Matthew - April 17, 2008
You know she's the only one on the entire crew
that doesn’t bug the shit out of me.
And why is it always their mother’s basements? What’s up with all these bastard children growing up to be seamheads?

Jordan of Boise - April 17, 2008
Some of you heard this story before
but while in college at UNLV some theatre kids had a party and I passed out after several drinks on the floor. I woke up in the morning with the host’s cat sitting on my face. I like to tell people that that was the only pussy I ever ate in UNLV Theatre.
Gomez - April 17, 2008
Bah ha
theater kids party?
Fin - April 17, 2008
Yeah, they drank a lot and threw a lot of parties
It’s a hard knock life, producing shows all year ;P

C'mon, Robert
At least do this with Smirnoff Ice.

“He hit the cutoff man right in the face!”

hahahahahahaha
No name Padre guy leads off the inning and gets thrown out by 120 feet trying to stretch a double into a triple.

Meatball coming.
Or maybe a walked in run.
Either way SD loses.

Fucker got a lucky popup.

That ump hates SD.
No doubt about that strike 3.
Questec for everyone!

Uh make up call, no?
JI - April 17, 2008
Nah,

I like that Vasgersioun (sic)
admits to being a homer.

The robot falters.
Greene lets a single through, 1st & 3rd 2 Out.

No... More... Baseball...
It’s 2:40A and it’s not worth it for two teams I don’t really care about.
Faux - April 17, 2008
Holy shit you're on the east coast?
JI - April 17, 2008
Yeah, I know.
I actually got back up and watched it from the 19th to the 22nd on my TV in my bedroom.
I can’t believe that I missed that thread… it was 4:30 when I finally went to bed.

I live in Utah and so I had the game on TV.
Anyway, I passed out somewhere around the 17th-18th inning. I just now woke up with my face buried in my couch with the sun shining in burning my eyes.
Needless to say, the M’s game last night avoided being the most boring baseball game of the day. I feel bad for the Padres fans and workers who stayed at the stadium as long as they did to see their team lose.

What the weird? A game?
It’s not every night that I am up at 3am and decide to check the league leaders on mlb.com… but tonight I did.
