SBN is shitting on me again :(
My computer must be on PCP if one game thread shits on your computer.
I guess so

I’ve timed out about 20 times

It was all power rangers and Coach
The Power Rangers were awesome
The stupidest decision I ever made

was 3 years ago selling all my Power Rangers stuff. That was like 7 years of birthday and christmas presents out the window

I regret it hugely

I still have the original Megazord packed away downstairs somewhere
good on you
As someone who was well into high school by the time the Power Rangers got big...

...I look down on you like the annoying kid brother you thankfully aren’t.

I was like 4 when the Power Rangers came out
I think I was 12 or somethin
Wait...when DID they first come out?

I may have actually only been in middle school. But I was wise beyond my years, motherfucker.

I honestly have no idea

I was making my age up

I disagree
even though it was Japanese bullshit

it was still awesome

You have strange taste
We post too much?
On second thought maybe we do.
But then again, it was mostly Coach's fault.
Maybe we do post too much.
I don't know...
Well....
Yeah.
I see Jeff's point.
and it is one to consider
In my defense it was partially Coach's fault though
(Because of all the stop posting pictures)
(Oh and the Power Rangers sub-thread)
(But that wasn't Coach related)
Do we post entirely too much Power Rangers?
Is that possible?
How did I not know this was on DVD?

OMG HOW MUCH

$Texas

(I have it for free on my computer...Dino and Thunder series)
A bit old to be in high school?

Maybe. But check out how awesome this zord is.

Too...many...Red Rangers

i think i read that the red ranger does gay porn now.
According to his wikipedia picture

he is middle aged and fat

he looks like

John Belushi

Look at the picture JI posted of him then try to pretend you're surprised by that.
There really has a disturbingly high prevelance of Power Rangers sub-threads

over the last month

And it all started with Jeff's Pink Ranger fantasy.
Amy Jo Johnson

so hot

Hell yes.
I concur
She was great in Felicity

i mean…uh….shit

Show tanked when she left
Like you would know. You always abandon us.
I've been out of town and moving out of my apartment for the better part of the last month

I’m so fucking tired… but I’m still going to the meetup. How’s that for dedication?

I'm not going.
That's not going to play well with the voters
Let Ralph debate! Let Ralph debate!
Post too much do we?
Sure you don't want to post a third thought there?
Crap, you're already up to fourth by the time I posted.
Post count nazi!
Why, Mr. Sullivan?

Can you not tell we love our team

We've got nothing better to do Jeff.
NOT FIRST.
I've never done something like that before, just figured I should get that childish shit out of my system now.
Burke is much less awesome this season
Still better than Waste of Space.
Might it be for Clementian reasons?
Yessir

I wish I had 130 bucks to spend on a piece of wood

Must be all the Stop Posting gifs
this might have been already stated at some point

but i got a good laugh when i just saw the article title…

Tigers send LHP Willis to Class A

YEah

The Edinson Volquez plan. And Doc Halladay like somboedy said

Mentioned before...still funny...
Not quite as humiliating as it looks initially, though Willis is indeed made of fail.

The Tigers’ main training facilities are located at their single A installation, which is why he was sent there – so the coaching staff could give him a real lookover.

At least that’s the nominal story.

More reasons to hate Wilkerson
MLB.TV....

KEEP WATCHING OR ELSE

HAY WOW THE NATIONALS ARE BETTER THAN THE MARINERS OFFENSIVELY

Three home runs in the inning. Almost back-to-back-to-back (fuck you Aaron Boone). When the Nats are better with the bats than you, kill self.

This is with Zimmerman on the DL
And Johnson.
and Vidro

;

I still can't believe you (we) took that load off of our hands.

This is the pain I had to deal with when one of my two favorite teams hornswaggled the other in a trade.

I hate you Wilkerson.
hahaha
Brad Wilkerson runs funny.
HAHAHA Fuck you Wilk
Haha, fuck you Wilk.
goddammit
King Awesome is unclutch because he can't make impossible plays.
terrible contract because of that play
David Bell makes that play
So does Edgar Martinez.
So does Player A.
Russ Davis makes that play
Let's not go overboard here.
I remember when I used to heckle him

I was like 10 at the time and I actually got him to look at me with disgust once.

Willie makes that play
Mike Blowers makes that play.
Justin Leone doesn't touch the ball on that play
Matt Kata makes that play
Banned
Still a sensitive subject?
I think it's an overused meme
Still good
Is he still with the Zitos?
my bad...

I just think he’s awesome.

It's hard to play third adequately when you're trapped under Jeff's car
I wonder what Guillen i thinking about now

...I can be with these looser Royals and be rich
...or I can be with the Looser Mariners, be poor, but be happy.

Also I dropped more F-Bombs than Mac did.

But which team is the loosest?
UW women's softball team?
only time will tell
We better tighten our team up!
You better Buckle up and get after it LFJL
BRING BACK BUCKY JACBOSEN
Git er done
Oh god... I do not want to hear that.
Only he can now light the fire in the recesses of Ichiro's soul
I've missed this Geoff Baker so much.

He wrote this concerning some moron in his game thread.

Hey everyone, treekiller in the comments thread is having a Richie Sexson Appreciation Night at his place this weekend. No alcohol, please. Nor Canadian flags. For reservations, just log on to www.wetakelifetooseriously.com.
Not a real website

Disappointing.

So our R/G is finally under 4
We're the 65 Dodgers without pitching or defense.
so we're the 62 Mets?
It'd probably go up if we went to the NL :-/
True, most pitchers do hit better than Jose Vidro
He may not be shoeless, but he is ironically batless
We still suck.
That brings me back
At least this game has been mercifully swift
ahahaha goodness

Just give up, Adrian. Effort clearly isn’t working.

A hit, Beltre.

That’s all I ask.

IMPOSSIBLY LATE
High standards I see
Very few things in life piss me off as much a our starting pitcher having a quality start and still losing.
Silva doesn't deserve wins
My prediction of

6 < x

runs looks real good right now.

(Did I do it right)?

He caught the ball?
on the ground too
What the hell Morrow

More Ks

Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation, Rotation.
Hey PITCHf/x, work
Ryan ludwick is better than Manny Ramirez.
I 100% believe this
You should.
I can't believe it's gone from being 100% sarcastic to being somewhat true.
I like Morrow
I like him better in Tacoma.

But nooooooooo, I have to be a Mariner fan. I’ll say it again: Seattle, go fuck yourself for proclaiming Alaska as your turf and suckering me in with 2001.

What's the over/under on us losing?
I hope Dustin's arm falls off
What the fuck is Gibbons doing

did McGowan do something wrong?

dude

lame

I like this better than Vitor artinez
what is he saying?

M! L! B! DOT! TV!

needs more bold
It looks like he's lipping "biotches"
I think just a shot of his grin would be better than a gif
Funnier in context.
I'm going to have nightmares now.

Thanks a lot

holy fuck that smokehouse baconbuurger looks disgusting
It's disgustingly delicious

Hold the tomatoes

The Cardinals' season is over.
Did Pujols just die?

?

Welcome to Griffey's world Pujols
I don't know what happened or how serious it is.

I tried to find out, but 30 second of Thom Brenneman is too much for anyone to take.

checking in on VIva...

He went down holding his calf

Hey!

Maybe we just found a team willing to take Sexson!

Chris Duncan, Joe Mather

and any other warm body would dictate otherwise.

At least it's unrelated to the Sword of Damaclese residing in his arm
I feel sick.
hay is is vitor artinez

I feel a bit less sick.

How could anyone like a team with Ryan Franklin and Joel Piniero on it.
You're a Mariners fan. You tell me.
So question for smarter people than me

How is LD% determined, or more specifically, what is the criteria for a batted ball being a line drive?

Subjective observation
I was afraid of that.

So how far off are we from having HitF/X?

Not
Really?

Well I’m excited, then. I can’t wait to see what can be done with it.

What exactly does it do?
PITCHf/x for hitters
Like how hard they hit the ball on average, that sort of thing?
Velocity, trajectory.

Cool stuff that, if I’m reading things right, well better help quantify and differentiate things like LD% and FB%.

And defense
How so?
Better idea of ball velocity = better idea of fieldable balls
Fucking awesome.
For the record when I say this I don't mean to imply that it's like a week away from happening
I certainly don't expect it that soon.

Sometime within the next few seasons would be nice.

another broken pr...

ah fuck it I’m so scared right now

120 pitches....

Holy Crap.

Stupid Stat Question Alert

Should McGowan survive the ninth does he get a win and a save?

To get a save you must not be the winning pitcher
well that makes sense.

wow. that really was a dumb question. back to my regularly scheduled beer and Crown

There are no stupid questions.

Only stupid people who ask them.

Let's play a game

Make a fist and hold it in front of your nose. OK. Now I’m going to pull on your wrist really hard and the object is for you to not let me pull the fist….. wait… I’ve got to go find my buddy, I forgot how to play this game.

Saves are only for RP
Explain Washburn and Batista
They appeared in relief in the games they got saves?
HOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNK
FUCK YOU YOU MUTTONCHOP DOUCHE
You're just jealous Lopez can't grow the chops
fuck today

what a bunch of horseshit

Have a smile

D'aaaaawwwww....
Was Macgowan good, or do we just suck?

Or both?

Well McGowan is good so I'm guessing both
Anyone else suprised that

they let him throw 125 pitches?

Why, throwing to the M's may as well be throwing to little league

You really think he using full effort after he realized how we suck?

PLayers don't think about it like we do

they think any team can beat you at any time. Trust me he was trying to beat us.

Best Chops in the game

and…he’s good.

what the hell, the game is over already?
2 hour game woo

WE DID IT!!!

Later blokes

I’m gonna find something better to do. Like maybe shower and brush my teeth.

zomg not a chatroom!
Fuck you Kreuger
I wonder if they will be watching "Strange Brew" in the clubhouse tonight

Being they’re in Canada

God dammit.

No more posting at Baker’s blog. Too many fucking idiots.

Prefer not to have so much competition?

I kid because I love.

Gah needs more reply.
I wonder now what the fastest MLB game ever was
51 minutes (9 innings)

New York Giants v. Philadelphia Phillies, September 28, 1919

I'm late but

Back on September 28, 1919 the New York Giants took on the Philadelphia Phillies in Philadelphia, defeating them 6 – 1 quite quickly.

While the score is not that amazing, the time it took to play the full nine innings was, a mere 51 minutes, the fastest, or shortest baseball game in the history of Major League Baseball.

The fastest doubleheader was played on September 26, 1926 between the New York Yankees and the St. Louis Browns, lasting only 2 hours and 7 minutes.

thanks guys you are awesome can't get anything past you guys.
No problem, but you really should have looked it up yourself :D
dang. quick on the Google fu
my google fu is no were close to you guys
It was really hard to type "fastest mlb game".
so googling that also led me to find that the shortest

Major League career belongs to Larry Yount who got called up to play for the Astros in 1971 and got injured in warmups and never played in the game.

oh my god nicole zaloumis

could you please never leave fsn.

I wholeheartedly concur with this statement
I know I'm in the minority on this, but I'm not seein' it.
She looks like a man.

A man with a giant rack.

Picture anyone?
Most recent I could find

From the PI I like the look. Kinda like that chick on Law & Order SVU. Oh and that Lisa Gangel is pretty hot too.

de-linky


(Totally looks like a man in drag!)

I'm in the meh crowd too

but that the worst picture I have ever seen.

Dunno what you're talking about, it's not a bad picture.

She always looks like that.

It makes he look heavyer than she is.
Paper bag it
that must just be a bad picture
Here is a less bad picture.

holy chirst that is huge

feel free to delete it

That's not what she...

Nah…too easy.

It's a lot harded to see the scanlines when you shirk it down to 320

case in point
Camera needs to be lower.
You are a dog.
We were all thinking it.
I vaule the female demographic.
Thanks.

Because I wasn’t thinking it. Hence, “all” is not correct usage.

Liar.
To be fair, we don't know the definition of "vaule".
Similar to value

but value is trademarked.

Yeah like two feet.
Was this woman around today?

Damn FSN bar.
It was like that the whole inning
Her face could be horrific

just saying.

Yes, I kind of prefer the mystery
I thought you meant the blue haired girl.
I was about to post an anime pic.

I quickly thought better of it.

Rec'd for exercising sound judgement.
Phantom rec?
I feel cheated.
I show a rec.
Flagged!

Kidding.

I'm not afraid.

I’m sure I’ve been flagged before.

flag'd for thinking about it
Awww...

Why must you make me cry?

...que?
blue-haired girl
Oh right, that's what this subthread was about.
Ok that was a real mind fuck until I realized it ws a pic.
Didn't you post the pic?
Are you referring to the pic you posted?
I wonder if they pay her to stand there
Fuck

I can’t figure out how to link posts from other Game threads. Its strange to see Cards fans talk positively about Pineiro.

Right click on the part of the comment that says the date, copy link location, ect.
What the fuck?

I posted a picture of him getting beaned here and we all enjoyed it. Those people are stupid.

Oh, I see we got Brad Wilkerson'd.
wilkersOWNED

think it’ll catch on?
