"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
"But," says Man, "the last inning is a dead giveaway isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic."
McLaren, put in freakin' Mike Morse! We don't want our backup catcher to pinch hit in the bottom of the 9th when we are down... Where are you coming up with this logic?
ALSO WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU THROW A FASTBALL TO TEXAS' BEST POWER HITTER WITH RAMON MOTHERFUCKING VASQUEZ ON DECK!!! RAMON VASQUEZ!!!! RAMON GOD DAMN SHIT EATING TIT-FUCKING VALDEZ!!!
I don't care that JJ Putz gave up the go ahead run, the biggest suckfest of the game was Richie. Three fucking strikeouts, looked like a fucking crippled 90-year-old .
Furthermore, fuck Squinty McClusterfuck for his idiotic bench construction. Fuck Squinty for temping fate by leaving Vidro in to run.
Finally, fuck the morons who were sitting by me. Fuck them for thinking that Jose Vidro is the second coming of Edgar Martinez because of his fucking empty .314 average. Fuck them for bitching at me when I got pissed off at Sexson.
Fuck fuck fuck.
I'll be watching Carlos Fuckin' Silva pitch from the warmth of my own room tomorrow.
Pinch running Jimmerson for Burke and Bloomquist are fine, but why the hell leave Willie in left when you can put the better defender in Jimmerson in left, and have that spot be up in the next inning where you can pinch hit Morse against the lefty closer?
that was a long afternoon. Went to a game with a bunch of ESPN loyalists. They all think I'm the biggest idiot on the planet because I think:
A) Felix is really really good
B) A-Rod is not a good fielding 3rd baseman
C) Groundballs for hits are more indicative of good performance than hard hit liners for outs
D) Adrian Beltre is the absolute man at 3rd base
E) Jeff Cirillo is not the greatest defensive third baseman of all time (seriously?)
I forgive JJ, but seriously, fuck Sexson. My God, lets just fucking swing at shit so far away it needs to be returned by Fedex.
Good night, cruel world.

So what happened to our 1-2 punch?
Not that they didn't do their job, but aren't we supposed to win these games?
Wilder. - April 1, 2008
They both did their jobs just fine
the problem is that there is no 1-9 punch
tootthekazoo - April 1, 2008
They have to be able to score runs first...
Bedard and Felix only gave up 2 runs, COMBINED.
ThundaPC - April 1, 2008
Severe lack of run support.
From what I can tell. It's not like Felix and Bedard pitched badly, 1 ER between the two of them.
TheOptimist - April 1, 2008
Felix was
quite fortunate with some damn good defense on his part to save his bacon.... but yeah, the offense and JJ blew this game
MfaninAlaska - April 1, 2008

I hate the little AIM pop up that tells me we lost. Can I make it only tell me when we win?

We needs to blow up the whole team and start over.

I'm pretty sure a toilet brush

Or do I remain steadfast with JJ and wear him anyway? And will anyone notice or care in Philadelphia?
dkulich - April 1, 2008
I wouldn't give up on JJ
unless this becomes a habit.
TheOptimist - April 1, 2008
I think in Philly
you'll have a lot of people mis-pronouncing the name on the jersey, and directing it at you. So no, nobody will care

Yes, CJ Wilson is quite good
but as evidenced tonight 2007 performance was no guarantee of anything. >:(

But then coming to realize he is Player A.

PShwa - April 1, 2008
Not really
I was hoping he'd sit on 3-2, fouling strikes and waiting for ball four.
Gomez - April 1, 2008
I just wanted to not be scared anymore
JJ blowing a save is a scary feeling
I was more mad at Sexson than anyone else.
That pitch was nowhere NEAR a strike. Seriously, Richie. SERIOUSLY.
PShwa - April 1, 2008
Why McLaren, WHY?
McLaren, put in freakin' Mike Morse! We don't want our backup catcher to pinch hit in the bottom of the 9th when we are down... Where are you coming up with this logic?
Alaska - April 1, 2008
Uh well if you take Burke out I'd love to see who you'd have catch the 10th
Jeff Sullivan - April 1, 2008
Bloomquist? Although, we shouldn't create emergancies.
Wilder. - April 1, 2008

Awesome use of your bench Mac
Pinch running Jimmerson for Burke and Bloomquist are fine, but why the hell leave Willie in left when you can put the better defender in Jimmerson in left, and have that spot be up in the next inning where you can pinch hit Morse against the lefty closer?
Dumb
nadzor - April 1, 2008
I AGREE! Morse would have been clutch...
Alaska - April 1, 2008
That should read pinch running Jimmerson for Johjima, and Bloomquist for Ibanez. But I am tired a dumb.

F) Errors are not necessarily indicative of defensive ability
G) Felix's win-loss record has nothing to do with his abilities
