Glad to see our broadcasters openly peeping.
That could've been hilarious
Hay, Angels win another game via Walk-Off.

That must suck for Angels fans.

wtf that was creepy

looking into that hotel room like that

Rally Secret!!!

Don’t Tell

Heh, when I first read that I thought it said "Ryan Seacrest"

...
...
...not a Freudian slip!

Yay, more Miguel Batista
For years the plight of the Red Sox is widely known

Whereas the Mariners plight is just something everyone can occasionally laugh at.

Fuck you Pedroia

Your not Pete Rose

His not Pete Rose?
I see what you did their
please tell me "their"

was on purpose

I would have traded the ball for a game used doo-rag.
I read that was poo-rag.
as

Damn you JI.

That would sell on e-bay.
Like Manny's friend's grill
I read douche-bag.

Stupid mind always adding letters to increase peversity.

Vidro wasn’t even trying to run hard. Pisses me off.

That was Vidro's top speed.
So what was Manny offering to give Brett? Nothing?
it's a tempting offer.
Sounds like just a ball
tough call
You can have homerun ball #499... or the contents of this box
Does said ball come with a free frogart?
Yes, but the toppings come with an additional charge
That's bad!
apparently just another ball

Pretty shitty offer IMO

Is the ball signed?
no word, but even if

I’d still call that a bad offer.

My demands would start at doo-rag

and escalate to meeting him

Even if it's signed, that's still pretty shitty...
They'll just give him an unused baseball in the box.

“Thanks, Manny!”

I've got a game-used Adam Jones Batting Helmet...
Well this game is over
Isn't it nice that we can presume that from the beginning?

I pity other baseball fans.

Don't all games end eventually?
Mercifully, yes
Morrowtime bitches.
time to walk the world
I reserving judgement.
Catch this HR ball Brett
"The incredible Manny Ortiz."
I have an odd confidence in Morrow here
This post pisses me off, becaue it won't unflag as a new post
I have about three of those kind of posts in this thread right now
That Putz train commercial need to die a slow, painful death.
I have an odd confidence in Morrow here
What's that all about
I'm telling you

Hive mind…

I guess

That was a strange coincidence

"as dangerous a homo sapien", Dave?
No way would I try to use that word

on live radio.

Yep, they showed him catching it in that clip.
first pitch offspeed

Morrow > Felix.

Yay, bendy thing.
98 mph ftw
pardon me

99mph ftw

fuck you red sox fans

fuck you mariners fans, start cheering louder

CHARGE THE EFFING MOUND.
GAS HIM MORROW
FUCK EVERY BOSTON FAN THAT IS AT THE GAME TONIGHT
hahahaha

All I can here in the audience is “LETS GO MARI-SOX”

That team would be much improved over our current mess
Remember Strasburg!
WE approaching 30%.
WOW

Go Brandon

Morrow is so awesome

I am loving this

K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOO

FUCK YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS

KARMA BITCH

THAT’S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU STIFF BRETT

Sooo....

Morrow not bad, eh?

Make him a starter!!! ARGHHH
99 MPH

DAMN!

Sit down son
God damn...atta kid
Ready for the letdown everyone?
Never completely >:(
been ready for 25 years
ATTENTION ATTENTION

LETDOWN POSTPONED UNTIL 9TH INNING

PLEASE NOTE, LETDOWN POSTPONED.

But I had the bathtub and toaster ready and everything
Pills and booze FTW
Just soak for a while, it will feel nice.
Admiral Wrists is getting impatient
Masturbate first to relieve the tension.
I'm going to let this one stop here.
Maybe waldo rojas can hook you up with some of his donkey porn.
No, really.

We’re done.

auto erotic asphyxiation FTW

Okay yeah this has to end.
setup for a letdown

ps nice bendy on that first pitch

Another first pitch split.
I want to use the smoke tonight
haha I'm glad I'm not the only one listening to radio
allows me to view porn

whilst enjoying the game

I thank you for not sharing any of it with us as you said that
can't link to donkey porn at work

damn firewall

I think these posts are what Jeff is shooting for.
Heh. You said shooting.
ahahahahahahaha sitdownyoulittlelonghairedgirlybitch
99 heat, 86 breaker....

Wow, he’s getting a second pitch

False hope false hope false hope false hope

We need a .gif that expresses false hope

SIT THE FUCK DOWN
SWING AND A MISS!
those mariners fans look reluctant to even clap
HOLY SHIT FASTBALL
Sit down old men

Let him pitch the 9th too

WHAT IS THIS.
Holy fuck Morrow?!
remember when Putz was like this?
Morrow for closer!
Screw that

Morrow for starter.

DOWN BITCH

DEMOTE BATISTA AND PUT MORROW IN THE ROTATION NOW PLZ

Replace "Batista" with "Washburn"
Replace steaming pile of dung with more different steaming pile of dung?
Washburn is finished

Batista still has something left in his tank

Won't throw 99 in the rotation
With that breaking stuff and location he won't need to
He will need to go more than 3 IP

Which he hasn’t done since he was at Cal

And even then...

It’s not like he was a starter there the whole time, too…

YEE HAW

WE HAVE A NEW BRANDON MORROW ON OUR HANDS GENTLEMEN

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I think Morrow got JJ's fastball
WHERE THE FUCK WAS THAT PITCH
apparently if you throw it in the same place twice

the 2nd one’s a strike

This is like the Brandon Morrow who struck out the side on like 10 pitches a few weeks ago

stay with us, please

HOLY FUCK A STRIKE ON THE CORNER

THE RIGHT CORNER TOO

Trade Putz Now
Screw now...yesterday
god no

Morrow will never leave the bullpen if they do that.

Like he's ever leaving the pen regardless if what they do.
HELLS YES SON
well, that was pretty awesome overall
Morrow rules!
That looked pretty bad off the bat.
WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Now the loss will hurt even more!

Bosox just got Morrowned
That outing by Morrow made this game worth it for me.

Dirty

ahahaha suck it nancy
Yikes, lucky that pitch wasn't over the wall.
RED SOX GAMES IN SAFECO ARE SO AWESOME
Its true..everyone hates the Red Sox but the atmosphere when they come is well worth dealing with the idiots
New Fucking Plan

Just keep my fail message in the cue ready to go and then I won’t have to use it. It’s just like my superstition about keeping my glove on in the dugout until I’m on deck

queue
Queue.
Que?
Mariners lead in tonight's game of Calvinball, 54 to Q
Q?

What's wrong with you people
Que?
Is this a blog or a star trek convention

Nerds….

NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERDS!!!!

Only a nerd would know who that was.
WRONG

I was force fed Star Trek as a child.

Stardate go fuck yourselves

That's my favorite Stardate of the year
I could of gone ultra nerd and went like this: Q?

Try again, warning kinda big

AUTORESIZE!
so... why not just shrink it down?

width=”300”

That would require effort.

ATTACK OF THE COMPLETELY UNRELATED JPEGS
Actually it's very related
I still can't believe Ogre joined the Tri-Delts.

traitor.

His weak mind was easily swayed by their big words and shiney objects
Yeah it was too late for me.
I was a bit late (trying to resize)

but how is it unrelated?

Q?

Did you know my name starts with a Q?

Woop woop!

I could of gone with this, but it hurts too much.

I had a coworker make this same mistake in an email to me today
Cui Gives a Shit
Fail
oops pressed post too soon

That was big.

Just like that pic.

SMALLER!

not that big

and baseball relevant

jokes
You have to make your jokes extra good

on sexonsux and butthol night

What?

I heard my name.

sexsonsux sux butthol
LOOK AT ME
I'll never be able to look at Skeletor the same way again

I don't like that I'm coming off as attention-craving tonight.

I honestly don’t mean to. I just didn’t understand how my name was mentioned.

I just really liked Jordan's picture
Too late for my Gonzales joke?

God has called him ohm.

You're a day late.
I know

I’m slow.

Refer to last night's game thread.
We could have used that in the game thread the other night..had a great run of comments
I can't believed nobody mentioned ohm.

I’m disappointed in us all.

It was pretty damn fantastic though.
Historic one

Anyone save it?

Yeah, he got lit up for the last time-

... oh wait, we’re done.

Should we all pitch in and get his family some gift cards?

If they are hungry…Quizno’s…Mmm mmm mmm. Toasty.

Now see, that's just gonna spark ill will
It'll die down....just a flash in the pan
Matthew needs to zap this thread.
This subthread will soon be a lightning rod of controversy
He should strike it down quick.
I smell burning flesh...I think someone got hit by lightning
Subtle.
It was going in that direction..I didn't want it to turn into Griffey's career.

Then it gets sad

So I'm not paying attention to the game.

Has the letdown happened yet?

Nope, give it time
Putz warming up

So we may be almost there

Stay tuned

A letdown is always mere seconds away

Putz warming up

Is it bad if my reaction is :( ?

Mine was too. I was like uhhhh leave Morrow in.
I said "uh oh" to a friend on AIM.

I gotta keep the GTE here I think.

things like this are why you're coming across as attention-seeking.
uh oh is GTE?
It is when referring to seeing JJ in the pen.
Dammit.

I’m sorry. I was just contributing to the subthread, that’s all.

King Not as Awesome

as he was 3 weeks ago

For once I want the Mariners to win

This post is haunting me!

Harvester of MORROW!!!

[/Metallica]

Joh looked bad on that pitch, hope Morrow stays in.
I'd like to stuff the singing aflac duck into a woodchipper.
That'd be a waste.

Go with the oven :)

boring
But delicious
Is eating an intelligent animal

worse than plain ol’ murder?

It's certainly more degrading
You are starting to win me over.
Well, shit.

At least Mac is using his stopper in the right situation.

PS: Fuck the Red Sox.
Has JJ gained weight?
He's gained suck

and he’s hurt

Niehaus says JJ is getting over the flu

Maybe that’s why he’s looked so bad lately.

go home red sox

clap clap
clap clap clap

We couldn't have let Morrow stay in?

We are fucked if it goes to extras.

Have Washburn throw.
I have a jpeg just for that situation.
Washburn in. Bullpen mismanaged.
I agree

Arent they trying to stretch out Morrow anyway?

I should say

it could be worse, he could hpld JJ out for the save

Arthur Rhodes available!
Way to kill the buzz.
He's my vote for new closer once JJ is traded.
You figure JJ for Worst Player in Baseball straight up, or will they include Clement?

This is Bavasi, after all.

They have Francisco Cordero already.
This team has problem's if we have to pitch around Varitek
Timlin

Chances of winning rising

I haven't seen him this year

but last year he was competant.

Way to go, Wlad. :(
Sucks

But that he even had a shot at that play is impressive.

Jesus Putz

You can’t pitch there with a 94. If you still had the 99 then OK

Niehaus says no info on Dice-K until after the game

He believes this is an ominous sign.

Scary throw o.O

JJ still not himself

holy shit

that could’ve been bad

good job Kenji
Looking better, JJ

I can buy the flu alibi.

Dude I wanna see

I walk off homer for goodness sakes

No! You must stay strong

For Strasburg

Walkoff homers are too stressful according to certain Angel fans

We don’t want that!

I heard walkoff hits suck when your team makes them
If we win..it'll be on an infield hit...a sacrifice...then a groundout moves him to third.

Then with an 0-2 count there is a wild pitch and we score.

Here we go!!! HERE WE GO!
this is getting creepy
I'd rather see a walk-off squeeze.
Wait

You mean baseball games have a bottom of a ninth inning if they involve the Mariners? Isn’t that against the rules?

OMG OMG HOMETEAM TIE GAME BOTTOM NINE

WIN POSSIBLE

WIN? THAT'S UNPOSSIBLE!
You're way too optimistic
I SAID POSSIBLE
False hope is false
I swear, if they win...

LL will be THE place to be.

Why is ballot stuffing for the All Star Game a good thing?
pads the number

about how many fans actually care about baseball.

IE: 10

Good point on USSM

Why didn’t they leave in Morrow to work up his arm strength like they said they were gonna

because they're idiots
I don't know why we even ask anymore
'Cuz they said they were just "thinkin' about" doing that
I beat them to it.
If anyone is going to go yard here, it'll be Wlad
If by yard you mean single, then yes
Who else could go yard with Wlad batting?
Oh God why is Cairo still in the game?
fuck fuck fuck
Did that help the WE, or hurt it?
my guess would be hurt
confirmed

but Cairo sucks so…

Willie Ballgame is gonna win this game somehow.
Wooo productive outs.
Somehow I don't disagree with bunting Cairo
Reed to PH

Strange, Mac actually uses a PH.

And uses him wrong. Betancourt > Reed.
Sort Of

Betancourt swings at too many bad pitches. Reed has better strike zone discipline

Looks like Yuni was pissed
Betancourt looks

pissed lol

real team player
Reed walkoff home run would be awesome.
Please deliver Reed
So, yeah, that's about the only good time to bunt in this situation.

Now remember how to hit, Reed!

Pretend you are in California Reed!
A hit here would be a win-win-win situation.
I would love you forever if you won this for us Reed
IBB
of course
Some managers wouldn't do it.

Pittsburgh’s manager IBBed a guy with 1 out and Pujols in the hole in the bottom of the ninth in a tie game.

Extra innings here we come.
Here comes the wild pitch

Wait for it…..

GET PISSED ABOUT THIS LOPEZ

PRETEND YOU GIVE A SHIT.

Long flyout at the wall.
Produce Ichiro
COME ON LOPEY!

This is the first time I’ve cared about a game in weeks.

i really wanna gif
take care of that in the bathroom man
BRB HAVE TO TINKLE
You can't hide from Jesus, Matthew
bunt for a hit you fat fuck
pussy hit for the win

would be great

How about, hit it to Manny and he Raul's it.
even better
Strikeout Lopey!

Are you all forgetting what’s at stake here? This win is meaningless! There’s so much to be gained by losing.

Oh fucking A damnit I can't not watch this.
My god those two kids look like douchebags
Turbo ondeck eating ondeck circle
tastes like legos
Wild pitch time!!!
LOAFIE!!!!!!

WHAT IS THIS WIN?

No, Lopez

A sac fly will NOT do here!

MARINERS WIN PENNANT
ICHIROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

er Lopez

YOU GET THE POINT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

LOAFIE LOAFIE LOAFIE!
LOOAAAAFFFIIIEEEEE!!!!!!!
YEAH YEAH YEAH
FUCK YOU RED SOX
JOSE LOPEZ IS STIL FUCKING AWESOME!
LOAFIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOPEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yaaay

yaaaaay!

FUCKK EYAHAHEKJHASDJKHK SJH SKLJH SDKLJ!!!!!
WHOOOOOOPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Hey Everybody

M’s Win M’s Win

Rally Goat is late :(

^^ that is awesome
WHERE THE FUCK IS OUR FIDDLE CAT?!
Why am I not surprised Timlin takes the loss?

Man, we kill him!

Oh God it's finally over...

glad it came at th expense of the Bo-Sox.

THE MARINERS ARE GOING TO PLAY FOR THE AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

MY OH MY IT JUST CONTINUES

IT WILL BE SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE

I have this on my IPOD

LOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!
OMG WOW YOU WON

Mariners Win!

YES YES AND YES
I TOLD U EPIX
Zephrane Cochrane for the win!
Absolutely amazing

Im impressed

You had an entire battery of 'em ready. Awesome.
I had that post ready since the fourth
So you had that ready to go?
Yes

Thats why I was pissed when the failiners gave up 3.

These gifs work really well over the victory music in Safeco :)
I approve of all these gifs
Hahaha that last one is so fucked up

I love it

SYLAR YOU'RE UP.

HIT US WITH THE FIDDLE CAT.

FOR EASY REFERENCE!

We have shamed Strasburg

And continued the FO’s stay of execution. This is not good.

We're still in sole possession of last place

Wins like these make losing more tolerable

But it's for the greater good

this way teams still believe the Mariners are actually still a baseball team, thereby putting
in a better effort than normally they would for a team that is such a road-kill.

Thereby ensuring… Strasburg.

"We play....uh..uhhhhhh....."
this is Vitor artinez
"30,000 begin to celebrate"

More like 3,000 begin to celebrate and 27,000 start in with obnoxious Patriots chants

EIGH-TEEN AND ONE!!

mmmmmmm......Fletchers.........
More people needed to mob Edgar.
They do, not on gif.
Edgar had a mob

but it needed to be a bigger mob.

The population of the Greater Seattle area would have been appropriate in that case
Damn

The only thing I see in that picture is how much of a cancer ARod is. He totally hates his teammates and isn’t celebrating with them.

He was the on deck hitter.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WE WIN LOAFIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA CUE UP SYLAR

(But Strasburg)

LATE
Yeah I fell asleep

but woke up in time for the end and then had to come here

M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P

M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P M-V-P

The HMS Toaster will have to stay up in dry dock tonight
Cylons have a British Ship?
Admiral Wrists ain't no frakkin skinjob
victory thread up

here

here

here

LOPEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

Felix with the Jersey Pull on Loafie in the post-win fray

Pissed that nobody tried to help him win last night

Woo!

What man is he fucking?
Erik Bedard

He’ll be on the DL again because of it =(

You've got some reading to do, my boy

Please read Sections 2 and 3 of the 2008 Chapter in your LL History Book

Worst game threads ever.
The common theme seems to be my absence
I tried.
Try harder
You are more to blame than I am.
Our surronding cast was suboptimal
I choose to use this excuse.

Not team could win with butthol making every fifth comment.

But he got some dessert!
We could trade Liebkartoffel, BrainL+ for Grant from McCovey Chronicles

No team could lose with two Ace bloggers.

The Giants deserve Grant
He's just going to walk once his contract is up.
BrianL has already been DFAed

his value is at an all-time low

We still have 10 days to trade him.
I was told I was pulled off waivers and placed back on the active roster!
I think it would have been better if we were allowed to be more mean
I'm not sure if the real problem is that we're not allowed to be mean as much as we suck at it
You're good at being mean to yourself
Yeah, but that's not nearly as entertaining
H.M.S Toaster is one of my favorite things to come off this site
I still have the original text message saved in my phone
I don't understand this reference. >:(
It was the result of some text messages between Jeff and I

following a Sens playoff loss and worked its way into that night’s game thread.

God, I need a new fucking phone...

It’s such a pain to delete large numbers of individual messages, so I end up having to delete them all.

It's called lock, stupid
...

Son of a bitch!

Now to insult yourself

it’s why we love you.
