I think it was when they were in Baltimore a year ago, so she said she would know when he gets back. I guess nothing happened, since she is in college in SoCal. Also apparently the ball players, including “family-friendly” Ibanez, spread rumors that she had sex with some of the ball players. She said it was not true, and they were a-holes. I don’t know what to take from it, I prefer not to make judgement.
His batting average isn’t good, and he hasn’t had 100 RBIs since the steroid year in LA. He’s a one-year wonder and is probably the worst contract in the AL.
And “greatest pinch hitters of all time” is such a ridiculous debate. Mark Sweeney would have his name thrown in there and we won’t remember who he is in 5 years.
Frequently = less than 50% of the time but still a good amount
That’s beside the point though. I don’t care who the greatest PHs of all time are, I’m just saying that guys who can’t really play defense and aren’t good enough hitters to be starting DHs frequently find themselves PHing in the NL
For some reason there’s a part of my brain that retains useless knowledge of childhood television shows. Most detailed scientific knowledge from high school? Not a chance. Gargamel’s cat? Azrael, bitches.
Plate Umpire Kerwin Danley was knocked out cold by a 96mph fastball by Brad Penny and passed the glove of Russell Martin, hit Danley in the neck under his face mask. They just took him out in an ambulance on the field. I’ve never seen that happen before.
It's also partly why I shortened the name to "ningwers"
back when I got my college e-mail address. I didn’t want to have to explain to anyone that I didn’t receive their e-mail because they couldn’t bother to spell my name correctly.
I don't even know why they bother interviewing Squinty
When it’s not the offseason. Like, he’s just gonna tell you everything you know, cept for the occasional “Richie’s gonna round the bases 40 times” and stuff.
Woodland Critter Christmas Cripple Fight Passion of the Jew Chinpokomon All About Mormons ...and I might throw in Fatbutt and Pancake-head simply because Cartman giving ben affleck a handjob makes me laugh, and the ending with Mitch Connors is pretty epic
Although the season 11 and 12 have been pretty weak, the Imaginationland trilogy was pretty awesome
He was an insurance salesman, and his chain of insurance places is still going today. But these guys have been doing commercials for him since forever.
Felix will be the Cy Young winner this year. If he has mastered that changeup as well as he has shown so far there is no contest, he could be the best pitcher in baseball with such command of that pitch. Lefties do not stand a chance against him with that and he already owns righties, so it is completely unfair to any hitter to face him.
Of course, Bedard may end up in the top 10 as well, tonight gave me some serious hope. This season isn’t over yet, as crappy as our offense is.
The BBWAA only understands W-L and ERA, and you have to have both… no matter how lights out Felix is (and he definitely is), he’s a victim of shitty offense
man Bedard is dealing
not Striking as many people out as he should but looking at that GB/FB out ratio is making me smile.
schwagnah - April 26, 2008
well considering 3 of those FB outs were infield flies...
schwagnah - April 26, 2008
Don't kid yourself A's
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
So who do we want to see pitching the 7th?
I say Hyphen.
Who do we think Squinty will go get? I say Green.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Wait, is he warming up Hyphen?
Gomez - April 26, 2008
I say Bedard
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Yeah, if only
He looks like he’s fine. But I have no problem with taking it easy this time.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Why hyphen? The lineup they're running is basically all RHBs, right?
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
I have yet to catch a shot of the bullpen
You have a point.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Bedard has given up 9 hits in 17 innings
Albert 3 HR and a ridiculous BABIP. But whatever.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
*albeit
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
We should sign this Albert guy
ningwers - April 26, 2008
He sounds pretty good
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
To be fair we have pretty low standards at this point
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Low standards are the most difficult standards to disappoint
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Not too difficult for this team >:(
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Too bad, Cards already have him
Gomez - April 26, 2008
He's like a big strong Edgar Martinez with gold glove defense
I think you’d like him.
JI - April 26, 2008
Is he happy there?
Is there anything we can give him that they can’t?
ningwers - April 26, 2008
love
JI - April 26, 2008
Malaise and coffee
Gomez - April 26, 2008

Speaking of which I have to go pick up Mariokart in an hour
Hell yes!
ningwers - April 26, 2008
NICE.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I need this game to end soon.
God, it’s good to have JJ back :)
ningwers - April 26, 2008
It's wierd to actually
want to see Morrow come out of the bullpen next inning.
Oh, and fuck that guy from THT. Hip labrum tear my ass.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Woo
Bedard throws six scoreless. Now it’s Ayala time. Aww…yeah.
Defenestrator - April 26, 2008
Let's go Beltre
chinn - April 26, 2008
That's gonna be a Duece.
Well said Sims.
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
Well stroked, Sims.
chinn - April 26, 2008
CHA CHING
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Beltre!
Happybelly - April 26, 2008
A DEUCE!!!!!!
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I love Sims.
Double is not the first thing I think of when I hear the word “deuce.”
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Beltre dropped a deuce on that pitch
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Exactly.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Beltre!
More runs please?
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
That pitch was anything but divine
Nick S - April 26, 2008
wooooo Beltre.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NO VIDRO AT 5 WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Nice play ball girl
Bavasi, sign her!
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
That ballgirl's fired
Gomez - April 26, 2008
If by fired you mean...
Invited over here, then yes. She’s fired.
dkulich - April 26, 2008

Fett42 - April 26, 2008

Thats not a good mental image.

Yes, actual banana
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
Ironic.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
man, that ball girl was cute
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
Not so much
I knew a girl from my old work who used to be ball girl for the M’s. Apparently Yuni had asked her out.
Fin - April 26, 2008
How could she say no?
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Given he can't speak English
probably the language barrier.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
aren't ballplayers not supposed to do that?
or is that basketball players and dance teams?
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
Haha. How'd she respond?
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
I am not sure, she told me to keep it a secret
I think it was when they were in Baltimore a year ago, so she said she would know when he gets back. I guess nothing happened, since she is in college in SoCal. Also apparently the ball players, including “family-friendly” Ibanez, spread rumors that she had sex with some of the ball players. She said it was not true, and they were a-holes. I don’t know what to take from it, I prefer not to make judgement.
Fin - April 26, 2008

qrsouther - April 26, 2008

Yea, Norton can stick around.
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
Norton!!
Happybelly - April 26, 2008
yes
JI - April 26, 2008
Greg Norton 4 DH
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Yes!
chinn - April 26, 2008
GREG NORTON FOR DH
Gomez - April 26, 2008
NORTO?!!
schwagnah - April 26, 2008
Sims did a Jackie Gleason
chinn - April 26, 2008
Norton for DH!
Goose - April 26, 2008
two hits out of the DH slot
MfaninAlaska - April 26, 2008
NORTON >>> VIDRO
Fin - April 26, 2008
if by norton, you mean a corpse...
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
I meant Norton is better than Vidro
Fin - April 26, 2008
I know, I meant a corpse
at this point, would be better than vidro.
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
I see
You are right, I guess I would be better than Vidro, Professional Hitterâ„¢ :D
Fin - April 26, 2008
NORTON!!!!!!!!!!
thenatural - April 26, 2008
cut vidro
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
I'd say Norton for President,
but I’m not sure what his healthcare plan looks like,
dkulich - April 26, 2008
this norton guy is good
schwagnah - April 26, 2008
I would like to see more of this Norton fellow
Nick S - April 26, 2008
Norton for RF
Clement for DH.
MfaninAlaska - April 26, 2008
No complaints here.
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008
I like this idea
Gomez - April 26, 2008
LA Drops a 10 in the first inning
Talk about offensive explosion.
Fin - April 26, 2008
5 duces?
JI - April 26, 2008

schwagnah - April 26, 2008
Taking a page from High Desert, I see
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Matt Kemp
5 rbis
JI - April 26, 2008
No lead is safe in the Cal League
In the NL West, however….
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Andruw Jones sucks.
JI - April 26, 2008
Fraksauce
I started Hunter Pence over Kemp on my fantasy lineup. Torre and his spastic lineups! shakes fist towards LA
Defenestrator - April 26, 2008
Kemp is on my fantasy :D
But I think one of the rules here is no one cares about anyone else’s fantasy team.
Fin - April 26, 2008
No, it's fun to hear of people's griefs because we can all relate.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
whew Dodgers not Angels

wtf???????????????? just happened?
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
I was wondering the same thing
pretty cool though
thenatural - April 26, 2008
You created some sort of game thread vortex
I am absolutely amazed.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
I hope I don't accidentally hjit back on my browser
this thread will take hours to re-load.
JI - April 26, 2008
What.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
what in the smurf?
JI - April 26, 2008
Wow, what the smurf happened here
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Uh I had a lot of ">>>"
ending with Vidro. Things went horribly wrong.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
I fount the rest of it:
JI - April 26, 2008
Oh god what is going on
Nick S - April 26, 2008
you just killed us all
chinn - April 26, 2008
Somone found a way to break the margins.... but not break the margins.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
I am recommending this although I am not sure why
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Yea,
So basically when you use the “greater than” symbol it creates the quote box. :)
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Let's try this
Cool.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Someone has to fix this.

Suddenly you understand why I do reverse smileys
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Ahhhhhh...
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I will never doubt you again.
JI - April 26, 2008
Yeah, I learned that one the hard way
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Why do we need box shortcuts
when we have idiotproofed picture associated auto format buttons?
JI - April 26, 2008
Watch this

Gomez - April 26, 2008
Awesome!
ningwers - April 26, 2008
I was going to put even more ">>>"s in.
Glad I didn’t, otherwise I probably would’ve inadvertently broken the gamethread.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
And the space-time continuum
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Nice swing you fuck
andrewgolfsalot - April 26, 2008

TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Only if he can DH for Reed.

Fett42 - April 26, 2008
The mythical 5 run HR??
It exists?!
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
There were 2 people on first.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
No, just one Vidro

Erik Bedard's curveball should fight crime
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008

Bedard probably told McLaren that he's feeling no discomfort.

Holy monkeyballs. Hope Clement got at least a few of them.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
he has 1 hit
a double… been walked twice
and Phat Andy is still pitching.
MfaninAlaska - April 26, 2008
Left out there to die
Like the M’s, the Rainiers burned a lot of their pen yesterday.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
its now a 10-10 tie
not a half inning has gone by without a run scoring.
former Rainier Emiliano Fruto is pitching for Fresno.

Sure you didn't mean 'outs'?
Gomez - April 26, 2008
So how about this Bedard kid eh?
Goose - April 26, 2008
Not bad for returning from the DL.
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
You're even talking Canadian now
Bedard has an effect on all of us.

How aboot we sign him to a long term contract?

ningwers - April 26, 2008
Guess we won't need it
no idea what I’m going to do with all this leftover undead rage potion.
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Can you save it?
Washburn’s pitching in 2-3 days.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Sorry, Washburn doesn't qualify for undead status
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Damn, with the fastball in the 80's I figured he was there
Okay then.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Ibanez?
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
It's a long season
There’s plenty of time for Arthur to feed
ningwers - April 26, 2008
How did Rhodes walk Markakis on 3 pitches?
chinn - April 26, 2008
Even Rhodes looks like he knows he should not be in.

We really do need to update this bad boy
ningwers - April 26, 2008

With the M’s sitting at 3 runs and 8 hits.
Where have I seen that before?

Well, that makes one of us.

MfaninAlaska - April 26, 2008
93 MPH!?!?!

Nice pitch. :)
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Hit the Rhode jack,
Don’t ya come back no more…
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Too bad Jack was already on 1st... :(
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Why would you hit him, he struck the guy out... >_>
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Braden is a dashing young man
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008

chinn - April 26, 2008

MfaninAlaska - April 26, 2008
Woot.
Still waiting for that Yuni-bomb :(
Fin - April 26, 2008
Yeah if he's not gonna hit for power...
He should lose the weight and be defense Yuni again.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
Yuni says safe!
Goose - April 26, 2008
Bedard: 96 pitches
So much for the pitch count.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
They counted his pitches.
:-/
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Nice Hustle YUNI
thenatural - April 26, 2008
A's have 5 hits and 12 walks in 16 innings this series
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
The product of Billy Beane's masterplan.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Man Yuni has gay music
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Not that there's anything wrong with that
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
With the music there sure is
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Fair enough
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I think MLB.com did a thing about the different batter music.
like a few weeks ago.
Fin - April 26, 2008
Yeah...
Yuni’s was chosen because it said “Cuba” a lot. Good enough reason for me.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
Here is the article
Enjoy http://seattle.mariners.mlb.com/news/article_entertainment.jsp?ymd=20080411&content_id=2515594&vkey=entertainment&fext=.jsp
Fin - April 26, 2008
You know what other song says Cuba a lot?
“Cuba” by the Gibson Brothers. And it’s far cooler.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Haha.
They use the player’s name when they comment except for Johjima. Maybe they should just be straight forward and say “translator’s comment.”
Also, I hate the reasoning behind Raul’s and Yuni’s songs.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
I think it's pretty common for fans to be irritated as to how little thought players put into their walkup songs
I think any good fan has lost a lot of sleep thinking about what would be their walkup song.
Amon Amarth – The Beheading of a King would be my walkup – but I would make sure to keep Felix in the clubhouse when they played it.
Jordan of Boise - April 26, 2008
Mine: Blue Scholars - North By Northwest
Nick S - April 26, 2008
I prefer when the players make the selections.
But for Raul’s and Yuni’s, they didn’t make the selection. The stupid people in the booth did.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Also, my song would be the guitar solo at the beginning of
“Good Enough” – Honor By August
Or maybe “The Kids Aren’t Alright” – The Offspring
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
It's Raining Men!?!
ningwers - April 26, 2008
This is awesome.
JI - April 26, 2008
What's Yuni's music?
joof - April 26, 2008
I don't know his walk-up music
but when he singles they play “Whine Up” and when he gets extra-base hits they play “I Like The Way You Move”.
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Walk up music: "Represent" by Orishas
I actually like it
Nick S - April 26, 2008
How did he miss the base?
If he even did.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
He missed it due to the ball sailing away from him.
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
It didn't look like that he did, but I guess he did.
Fin - April 26, 2008
That 95 mph throw by ellis drew him off
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Should we be worried about Ichiro doing that shit.
He seems to be doing it a ton this year.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
He's fine
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
fuck you bobby crosby
thenatural - April 26, 2008
I hate those new Edge Shave Cream commercials.

ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Blowers tap dancing aroudn saying "Yuni blows at stealing bases"

There goes a 3-0 count to Lopez
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I am actually excited to see Morrow

Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Me too.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Me too...
if it’s 2 years from now and he’s starting

Nice.
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Okay, okay
This works
Gomez - April 26, 2008
That font is very veteran
not very gritty though.
Fin - April 26, 2008
Should change the text color
vkut79 - April 26, 2008
pretty good
probably be better if the font matched up a little better
thenatural - April 26, 2008
You only get so many fonts in MSpaint
JI - April 26, 2008
What about photoshop?
thenatural - April 26, 2008
way beyond my level
JI - April 26, 2008

Well then disregard my comments… I Love it

That was a queer series of events
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Not that there's anything wrong with that
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Uhm, a nice jump on it?
He moved about 5 steps to his left
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Even when Raul makes a decent play...
he looks bad doing it.

1-1, 2B, 3 BB
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
He's clogging the basepaths.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
Dump Vidro, call up Clement
vkut79 - April 26, 2008
Vidros clogging the toilet.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
This does not surprise me.
JI - April 26, 2008
They're scared to death to pitch to him, aren't they?
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Please stop using that camera angle.
My God.
Happybelly - April 26, 2008
That was a queer camera angle.
They’re not seriously letting that little shit actually do this are they?
JI - April 26, 2008
Eww Morrow
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
There goes the shutout.
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Mike Sweeney is very good at hitting.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
But not very good at being healthy.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
Or being appreciated
As attested by Progressive Boink
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Ouch.
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008

Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Whatever, Putz is one out away
vkut79 - April 26, 2008
Hooray for defined closer roles!!!
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Bloody hell
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Morrow allowed 3 HR in 63 innings last year
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
That looked like the Morrow version of the fabled Suck Pitch
Nick S - April 26, 2008
Yeah that was a pretty awful pitch
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Active RBI leaders
i.e. we are good sluggers that played with good teammates
Gomez - April 26, 2008
No Bonds on that list?
JI - April 26, 2008
I said good teammates
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Kent?
and
active?
JI - April 26, 2008
Bonds isn't active
MfaninAlaska - April 26, 2008
he says he is
JI - April 26, 2008
Damage = Minimal.
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
I loved that Frank Thomas was an awesome defensive 3B in the Ken Griffey JR. game.
JI - April 26, 2008

True of False
Brandon Morrow should be moved into the rotation somehow this year
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
*or
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Ours?
False.
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Moved to minor leagues for the remainder of the year or however much time he needs
then join rotation
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Morrow for the hold!
Corco - April 26, 2008
This is the 2nd time they've shown us a graphic with some statistical leaders on it...
and both times Sims commented on how good a group of hitters they are. Thank you mister most obvious factoid ever.
dkulich - April 26, 2008

“easy gas”

Well done
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Lopez!
Happybelly - April 26, 2008
No, Mark Kiger is still not building to the future
Nick S - April 26, 2008
Mark Kiger's season line as of this morning: 205/354/295
So shut up about his 9 game hitting streak, FSN.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
That's a pretty sweet lookin' OBP.
:P
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
that line really blows
chinn - April 26, 2008
And that's in AA
Gomez - April 26, 2008
What the fuck does Jeff Clement need to do to be called up
Could his bat be any more ready?
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
He needs to work on his defense, duh
Nick S - April 26, 2008
They don't want to disrupt the chemistry...
that Vidro brings to the lineup.
Jeff you know all about chemistry, help explain.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
You need to balance the light and heavy elements
removing Vidro swings the balance too far to the left.
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Yeah, definitely would mess up the periodic table of the Mariners
dkulich - April 26, 2008
Nice work baldy
chinn - April 26, 2008
Walking Beltre for Norton?
Huh?
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
Is anyone else surprised Beltre isn't swinging at those?
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Not low enough
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Yuni stole the intentional walk sign.
dkulich - April 26, 2008
Man Beltre is awesome
just around a .900 OPS right now.
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
You can just freeze that in place.
I’ll be happy.
JI - April 26, 2008
Yeah but he's very overrated.
His batting average isn’t good, and he hasn’t had 100 RBIs since the steroid year in LA. He’s a one-year wonder and is probably the worst contract in the AL.
dbroncos31 - April 26, 2008
Don't forget that he created the original zippocat and takes BP with live puppies
Jordan of Boise - April 26, 2008
Am I the only one
Who rather likes Greg Norton? He seems like a good guy. And that counts to me.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I think he's winning over a lot of fans tonight
ningwers - April 26, 2008
So did that.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
And how!
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Where the fuck does Joe's Tracer get it's data from?
chinn - April 26, 2008
I think the location is fine and they just have a fucked up idea of what the strike zone looks like
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Maybe they use the Japanese strike zone
Their’s allegedly is narrower.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
no wonder Ichiro and Joh
drew so many more walks…
JI - April 26, 2008

Damn, there goes Putz's save opp.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
He on your fantasy team?
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Actually, no.
I do not draft closers in the first 5 rounds.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
In that case revel in the blowout
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Well not exactly a blowout, but you know what I mean
ningwers - April 26, 2008
I am reveling now that we scored those extra two runs.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Nice hit
but Clement just got another 2 months in Tacoma
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
No save for Putz.
My fantasy team is mildly disappointed.
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Give Vidro the sausage carts outside Safeco as a severance payoff
Gomez - April 26, 2008
I just hope Norton continues to be awesome
so we can flip him for an uberprospect to a national league team at the deadline
Corco - April 26, 2008
He wouldn't go to the National League being a DH.
Also, it’s Vidro who needs to be traded or released at the deadline. Norton is the best move Bavasi made this offseason.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Pinch Hitter
Corco - April 26, 2008
Pinch hitters in the NL usually become a defensive replacement with the double switch.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
That's just not true
It FREQUENTLY happens, but not USUALLY
Also, explain Dave Hansen/Lenny Harris/much of Greg Norton’s career thus far/etc
Corco - April 26, 2008
Who and who?
Also,
Frequently = Usually
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Two of the greatest pinch hitters of all time
Usually = more than 50% of the time
Corco - April 26, 2008
So what is frequently eqaul???
And “greatest pinch hitters of all time” is such a ridiculous debate. Mark Sweeney would have his name thrown in there and we won’t remember who he is in 5 years.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
does*
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Fuck spelling.
M’s win.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Frequently = less than 50% of the time but still a good amount
That’s beside the point though. I don’t care who the greatest PHs of all time are, I’m just saying that guys who can’t really play defense and aren’t good enough hitters to be starting DHs frequently find themselves PHing in the NL
Corco - April 26, 2008
Remind me to never buy a Corco dictionary.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Bloomquist up, inning over

I'm just pleasenly surprised that noone said

The resemblence is totally off.
Not impressed.

For some reason I thought I remember them using smurferrific in the show

I haven't seen that show

It's been +/- 15 years for me
For some reason there’s a part of my brain that retains useless knowledge of childhood television shows. Most detailed scientific knowledge from high school? Not a chance. Gargamel’s cat? Azrael, bitches.

On second thought, can Norton play a serviceable RF?

OT: Watching the Dodgers -Rocks game,
Plate Umpire Kerwin Danley was knocked out cold by a 96mph fastball by Brad Penny and passed the glove of Russell Martin, hit Danley in the neck under his face mask. They just took him out in an ambulance on the field. I’ve never seen that happen before.
Glad to see the Mariners doing better!

Ummm.... somehow I mixed up Brain Barton with Dallas Braden.
WTF?

Alright Willie
You actually produced something other than an out. Nicely done.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Broomstick doing his best Willits impersonation
chinn - April 26, 2008
Impressive AB
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
BROOMSTICK WALK!
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Braden needs the fluffer
chinn - April 26, 2008
Honeymoon?
Sims scares me.
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
I hope Greg Norton knows
he’s not playing again for three weeks.
Jeff Nusser - April 26, 2008
Norton wouldn't have started until June under Hargrove.
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
I dunno
I’m surprised we saw him tonight. If Turbo stays shitty, we could see more of him.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
*if*?
JI - April 26, 2008
Heh, hypothetical 'if'
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Let Putz go out
Felix will never allow the bullpen in in his starts again anyway.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I think they just photoshopped in some hair for the second picture
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Wow he just looked like an ass
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
He smokes with Harden.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
He looks like the kind of guy that hangs out in his driveway drinking Coors Light and learing at underaged girls
ningwers - April 26, 2008
(queue smurfette)
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Dear god, no
ningwers - April 26, 2008
JI - April 26, 2008
I wasn't actually asking for it.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
It sure looks like she's asking for it
i kid i kid no ban plz
Nick S - April 26, 2008
She needs a good smurfing.
........
Goose - April 26, 2008
I think we've hit a new smurf-related low
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Is smurffette underage?
JI - April 26, 2008
Good question.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Is it any less wrong either way?
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Yeah actually.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
No, that'd be Sassette
ningwers - April 26, 2008
I wonder what other SBN blog game threads are like
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
They are about 8 posts long with an updated score.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
And no smurfette
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I apologize for ever bringing up the smurfs.
JI - April 26, 2008
That was you?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
(shakes head)
yeah
JI - April 26, 2008
On the bright side
I think the community learned a lesson from this
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Swearing is better than the alternative...
?
JI - April 26, 2008
Living legend
You’re like John Wilkes Booth, or something.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
(I brought up Smurfette too.)
JI - April 26, 2008
I thought that's what we've been talking about.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
"Wow, Braden's pitching pretty bad"
“Yeah, he sucks.”
“Fuck this game.”
...
Gomez - April 26, 2008
"Seattle gets an unusual amount of rain"
haha
haha
yeah
JI - April 26, 2008
It's a good thing Coach isn't here tonight
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
And tonight is different from any other night because...?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
hahaha
JI - April 26, 2008
You'd know
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Damn you
ningwers - April 26, 2008
I know one guy that's not going to be invited to my birthday party
ningwers - April 26, 2008
I know one guy that is
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
HAHAHAHAHA
ningwers - April 26, 2008
My favorite part? The link:
http://msnbcmedia4.msn.com/j/msnbc/Components/Photos/051107/051107_chris_hanson_vsml_9a.vsmall.jpg
MSNBC misspelled his name.
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
That one hits close to home
ningwers - April 26, 2008
That's why I just call you "Nick"
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
It's also partly why I shortened the name to "ningwers"
back when I got my college e-mail address. I didn’t want to have to explain to anyone that I didn’t receive their e-mail because they couldn’t bother to spell my name correctly.
ningwers - April 26, 2008
He looks like
he’s been practicing that look for a long time. Many hours in front of the mirror.
Jeff Nusser - April 26, 2008
Putz still in,
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Pointless game over?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
ah ah aaaaaaaaah ah ah aah
THUNDER
Nick S - April 26, 2008
"They're in need of a W!"
As compared to those teams who are in need of a loss.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
The Angels qualify for the latter.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
San Francisco Giants
dbroncos31 - April 26, 2008
This reminds me of a certain basketball game last January
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
JJ giveth hope that he might take it away
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Why not let the ball bounce off your glove and see if you can catch the guy running to first off guard for the quick DP?
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Infield fly
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Only with runners on 1st and 2nd.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Speaking of which...
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Are you sure?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Do you ever see the umpire signal for an infield-fly rule with just a runner on 1st?
Nope.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
I never watch umpires
When there’s something as exciting as an infield pop up at hand.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Because JJ is pitching and we win either way
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Not with the way he is pitching.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
seriously???
thenatural - April 26, 2008
I am tonight.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Getting more serious.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Fuck me
chinn - April 26, 2008
JJ giveth hope THAT HE MIGHT TAKE IT AWAY
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I wonder if he learned this from Frankie...
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Let them hit it they cannot touch you
dbroncos31 - April 26, 2008
Putz not locating the fastball well
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Strikes please.
Goose - April 26, 2008
Time to pitch better dude
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
stop sucking
chinn - April 26, 2008
I do not like this
Kaorikaze - April 26, 2008
3-1 count....
um….
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
THAT. HE. MIGHT. TAKE. IT. AWAY.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
WAKE THE SMURF UP CLOSER
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Well, this is concerning
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
WTF JJ?
Happybelly - April 26, 2008
Mommy, I don't want to see JJ today.
Goose - April 26, 2008
err classic JJ
Goose - April 26, 2008
should've just left morrow in
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
Good time for a first-ever LL post
Looks like we won’t need it tonight, but I thought I’d take a crack at it:
fmh2 - April 26, 2008
Better font
chinn - April 26, 2008
Too much flourescent teal.
JI - April 26, 2008
Better
fmh2 - April 26, 2008
I like his face on the towel
thenatural - April 26, 2008
I think ThundaPC's avatar would be a better fit.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
no more white flag though
maybe if we put a squinty-face next to his name
JI - April 26, 2008
Get it together, man
krb - April 26, 2008
Ok it's a pressure situation now stop dicking around please
Nick S - April 26, 2008
I don't like this
I don’t like this at all
Defenestrator - April 26, 2008

TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Oh shit there's a gmae going on.
JI - April 26, 2008

Nick S - April 26, 2008
I blame Mclaren, I fucking hate him
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
It's a JJ mind trick
He just wants the save, that’s all. He’s the Bear Grylls of closers. He’ll figure a way out.
Defenestrator - April 26, 2008
THROW STRIKES YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!

Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Babies acceptable

I'd like everyone to see my previous comment.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
AHHHHh waaaay way to scary
Nick S - April 26, 2008
About fucking time.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Fucking JJ
trying to give me a heart attack
LantermanC - April 26, 2008
I thought JJ sex talk was off limits
thenatural - April 26, 2008
I think that only applied to gang shower rape.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
We have the weirdest rules here
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Uhhh
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
HOLY SMURF!
M’s win!
TheOptimist - April 26, 2008
Dave Sims is very funny
dbroncos31 - April 26, 2008
J.J. Grylls
Expert survivalist
Defenestrator - April 26, 2008
and thus begins today's edition of the Man vs Wild / Survivorman debate
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Bear Putz
You can’t compare the two man, it’s like staged apples and wilderness oranges.
Defenestrator - April 26, 2008
It's Mario Kart time!
I’m out
ningwers - April 26, 2008
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it's over
JJ shoulda come out somewhere during the last seven cockpunches
Jordan of Boise - April 26, 2008
Ooooo
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I liked the way Sims called the end of that
Game over resume normal breathing!
mariners124m - April 26, 2008
Norton is a TRUE veteran
Corco - April 26, 2008
So that was most uncomfortable
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
More or less so than Smurfette?
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
We really need to stop with that.
I’m looking at you, JI.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Whatever dude.
JI - April 26, 2008
Lesson one
Don’t take me seriously.
I love you.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I don't know about JI, but I sure as hell wouldn't
like to have a butthole love me.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Drop the e
And then we have some respect.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
We also don't need to promote jew-killing... *cough*
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Even when you yourself are Jewish?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Still inappropiate.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Got it.
End of subthread.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Don't care
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
I'm Jewish and disapprove
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
So do I.
Passover was terrible for me though.
End of subthread, again.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
See, this is the internet, where you are a completely
anonymous entity. You can’t be excused for those types of “jokes”—who says you’re telling the truth?
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
I thought you were a Mandalorian
Jordan of Boise - April 26, 2008
No one understands
So I say Jewish to cover myself
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Huh?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Jordan and I understand
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Good.
I have low capacity.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I'm
half black, a quarter Jewish, 3/5ths Italian, 1/4 British, and 1/16 Sweed, and a woman, so I can say anything I want.
JI - April 26, 2008
So you're about 166% of a person
You can make fun of fat people too!
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Like everyone here
Doesn’t already? I’m thinking of a particular.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
You don't have to be fat to make fun of fat people.
JI - April 26, 2008
More
I could look away from Smurfette
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
I couldn't.
JI - April 26, 2008
Smurfette wasn't quite the part of my childhood
That Drew Barrymore was.
...
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
From ET I imagine
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
THANK YOU Norton.
Oh, and JJ’s slider sucks bulbous, sweaty, hairy, donkey balls.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Putz Woooohmygodneverdothatagain!
Goose - April 26, 2008
BEDARD MOUTH THING
Someone explain it to me here so I don’t have to go start a thread on it.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
He had some kind of mysterious mouthguard.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Seriously
Or was that just giving me an answer?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Yes.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
...?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Correct.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
You're too clever.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
But seriously this is why we won
It was hanging next to me the whole time and I forgot about it till that moment
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
The hat
Not that other stuff
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Thanks for the clarification >.>
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
What?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
The question mark implies that nobody knows why we won
Nick S - April 26, 2008
Lucky hat
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Ah
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Fett for biggest contribution
Gomez - April 26, 2008
I don't even know why they bother interviewing Squinty
When it’s not the offseason. Like, he’s just gonna tell you everything you know, cept for the occasional “Richie’s gonna round the bases 40 times” and stuff.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
TOMORROW IS FELIX DAY
Today here on the East Coast
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Where are you?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
New York
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, Manhattan?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Not the city... upstate
But my home is Sammamish, WA
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Oh got it.
Good to know.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
I do enjoy the city when school's off though
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
My sister lived there for a year and a half or so
I couldn’t handle visits for more than 4 days at a time.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
THE EAST COAST HAS FELIX DAY BIAS

Says "butthol"
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
It was meant to incite
“Yeah, those smurfers get it first.”
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
Oh snap.
Kreuger just dissed the East Coast.
ThundaPC - April 26, 2008
ITS ON
JI - April 26, 2008
God damn I'm tired of saving the rec center
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
Is this some feature I am unaware of?
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
No, joke about teen drama plots
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
I haven't seen that South Park in forever
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
In My top five episodes
JI - April 26, 2008
My #1
Scott Tennorman Must Die
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
This is true.
redwolf75 - April 26, 2008
Beat me to it
Chili ConCarnival.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
wrong
1. Death Camp of Tolerance
2. the entire second half of season 6
3. Woodland Critter Christmas
4. F’d in the A
5. Kenny Dies
JI - April 26, 2008
The Woodland Critter Christmas episode is my litmus test for whether a girl is dateable
Jeff Sullivan - April 26, 2008
That's a good place to start.
...along with the Big Lebowski.
JI - April 26, 2008
Fuck. Yes.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
Towlie is my favorite episode ever
I don’t even smoke weed anymore and it’s still hilarious to me.
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
A Million Little Fibers?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
No no, the original Towlie episode
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
What happened in that one?

thenatural - April 26, 2008
oops forgot to link it
here
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Dude, if you haven't seen it....
I don’t want to ruin it for you, watch it online. The episode name is “Towelie” #73. It’s awesome.
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Alright
Thanks for the title.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
My first memory of SP
“OH MY GOD IT’S COMING STRAIGHT FOR US”
JI - April 26, 2008
That is my first and last memory of South Park.
I watched the first 3 episodes and it got old.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
Thats a bummer
Its only gotten stale for me over the past season and a half, although I think they still occasionally put together some good stuff.
thenatural - April 26, 2008
ok
Woodland Critter Christmas
Cripple Fight
Passion of the Jew
Chinpokomon
All About Mormons
...and I might throw in Fatbutt and Pancake-head simply because Cartman giving ben affleck a handjob makes me laugh, and the ending with Mitch Connors is pretty epic
Although the season 11 and 12 have been pretty weak, the Imaginationland trilogy was pretty awesome
thenatural - April 26, 2008
The Imaginationland trilogy
That was good stuff. Especially episodes 2 and 3.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
And the last line
In All About Mormons is the best ever. That kid saying it to Stan.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
haha yeah and then Cartman
damn, that kid’s cool…
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Oh, my...
Cartman is a genius.
Wilder. - April 26, 2008
dude, how do you get so many good SP pics
is that the TV card too?
the ones that I find on image search never work
thenatural - April 26, 2008
internets
JI - April 26, 2008
damn I always put them up, but after 20 people say "fail"
I refresh and see that the picture just says “visit soutpark.com” or something
thenatural - April 26, 2008
allaboutsp.com
or southparkzone.com
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
they have episodes there, not pictures
thenatural - April 26, 2008
No pictures?
My bad.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
they have some pictures
JI - April 26, 2008
The new SP site is awesome.
JI - April 26, 2008
oh yeah, i know
i love the uncensored episodes
thenatural - April 26, 2008
Hey, it puts food on our families.
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
These Vern Fonk commercials
...
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
We don't disrespect the Fonk here
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Who is he anyway?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
The actual Vern Fonk is dead
He was an insurance salesman, and his chain of insurance places is still going today. But these guys have been doing commercials for him since forever.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
Oh, peculiar.
So it’s like a “the king is dead, long live the king” thing?
qrsouther - April 26, 2008
They were doing them even well before he died
I’m still not exactly sure what the premise is for these guys doing these commercials for Vern Fonk in the first place.
Also, needless to say, the Vern Fonk guy in the commercials isn’t him.
Gomez - April 26, 2008
It's an insurance company that makes awesome commercials
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Though the nature of wins, ERA, and sample size are all against this being relevant
It’s nice to say our Top 3 are 7-0 with a 2.19 ERA combined.
Fett42 - April 26, 2008
I'm really starting to believe
Felix will be the Cy Young winner this year. If he has mastered that changeup as well as he has shown so far there is no contest, he could be the best pitcher in baseball with such command of that pitch. Lefties do not stand a chance against him with that and he already owns righties, so it is completely unfair to any hitter to face him.
Of course, Bedard may end up in the top 10 as well, tonight gave me some serious hope. This season isn’t over yet, as crappy as our offense is.
OlSalty - April 26, 2008
Not if his record is 7-0
The BBWAA only understands W-L and ERA, and you have to have both… no matter how lights out Felix is (and he definitely is), he’s a victim of shitty offense
