My parents kept the unhealthiest food in the world around.
My idea of rebellion was to get interested in hippie food and never eat anything with artificial colors/flavors. I might have to make an exception for Otter Pops, though, I had forgotten how much I love them.
I took the red eye back from Seattle last night, and I’ve spent all day working and packing. This Guinness is pretty much the only thing all day that hasn’t sucked on some level.
A hallmate and I were finished a few days early and were kicking around the dorm until everyone else finished. One night some people across the hall were studying and repeatedly kept barking at us for making too much noise in our lounge around 8-9pm. So we started lobbing peanuts at them across the atrium. They responded by closing the shutters to their lounge. My hallmate ended the fight by filling up a giant water balloon and shotputting it into the shutters whereupon it shattered and soaked them all and their notes.
They have a 7 in the 7th contest where the winner of a drawing gets some big prize if the Mariners score 7 runs in the 7th inning. In other words, they win a house or something after hell freezes over.
but I think you have to be able to make that play as a major league first baseman. blah blah blah I know Richie’s not a major league first baseman but you know what I mean.
It isn’t that good. It’s actually one of the cheapest quality fast foods there is. The Harold and Kumar movie was sure a brilliant marketing gimmicks wasn’t it?
if they keep losing, they will make roster moves which will benefit the team in the long run. If they win, it instills false hope and makes them keep playing crappy veterans.
Norm was fired because of too many OJ jokes. The exec didn’t understand the dry humor and was annoyed that the studio audience didn’t guffaw at everyone of his jokes—whoosh.
It’s funny because Norm was the most popular guy ever to do that segment since the originals.
the one time I did enjoy the beer garden was for a company function…the DRays shut out the M’s 1-0…Jamie Moyer pitched a complete game, but we were all so loaded that when we asked if we could go out to smoke and come back in the usher was like “the game’s over….” We looked out and sure enough there was no one on the field.
So I've always been a fan of the blue Otter Pops.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
Yeah I think those are mine too.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I used to squeeze multiple varieties into one big otter pop
I sucked it long, and sucked it hard
marinator - June 2, 2008
Was it good or gross?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
cream filled actually
JI - June 2, 2008
I'm talking about the actual otter pop collision.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
me too
JI - June 2, 2008
Of course it was good
Like when you put together multiple varieties of squishy at your local 7-11 into one 64 ounce cup
marinator - June 2, 2008
Or snowcone at a minor league baseball game.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I always liked the red ones
But blue is my second favorite
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
What will it take for MLB to ban those brittle bats?
Quite frankly a bat flying into the stands and spilling my beer would be enough for me.
marinator - June 2, 2008
The key is to figure out why they are used so widely
and why the alternatives aren’t used as much.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
EVIL JOHJIMA
PhilKenSebben - June 2, 2008
We need an ally
Now would be the perfect time to secretly turn Gomez against Jeff.
JI - June 2, 2008
Washburn needs to freshen up his excuses
I hope he blames Erik Aybar for looking too much like a 13 year old girl.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Discuss
Robert - June 2, 2008
I had a green one once, i liked it.
PhilKenSebben - June 2, 2008
Second from left.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Where's grape!?!
Omerta - June 2, 2008
I once OD'ed on otter pops
Robert - June 2, 2008
Great
My folks had an innate disdain for food coloring, however.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
My parents kept the unhealthiest food in the world around.
My idea of rebellion was to get interested in hippie food and never eat anything with artificial colors/flavors. I might have to make an exception for Otter Pops, though, I had forgotten how much I love them.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
No me likey
JI - June 2, 2008
Have you tried the pink?
Robert - June 2, 2008
I dislike the stupid plastic.
JI - June 2, 2008
I would always cut the corner of my mouth on the plastic
Robert - June 2, 2008
I was look really gay trying to open them up with scissors.
JI - June 2, 2008
I felt the same way when I'd have to cut open ketchup packets and stuff with scissors.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I was able to look like a bad ass by spitting the tops into a makeshift otterpop spittoon
Robert - June 2, 2008
That's what he...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
DON'T DO IT
JI - June 2, 2008
Don't worry.
I made sure the point was across, without me getting hit hard for it.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I used to let them melt and drink the syrup
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Fatty.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
(no brb dessert jokes please.)
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Your sig is too still big
and dola posts aren’t looked kindly upon unless they’re really worth it. This, for example, is not such a case.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Still 4 lines long like the pther one.
JI - June 2, 2008
Your sig can get annoying when I ctrl-F through the thread in order to count my recs
Robert - June 2, 2008
Mine?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Which one?
I am currently sig-less.
JI - June 2, 2008
Your election sig
Robert - June 2, 2008
I turned it off after an hour.
JI - June 2, 2008
It's awesome being able to just check the rec leaderboard.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Where do I stand
I need validation damnit
Robert - June 2, 2008
You were fourth until I went through and deleted all your recs for campaigning against us.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I still see a drunk thread
That means my cache of recs still survive
Robert - June 2, 2008
You actually believed me?
98% of the things I say are an outright falsehood.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Vote Jeff/Matthew!
JI - June 2, 2008
It's for a good cause at least.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
You sound a lot like [zomg no politics]
JI - June 2, 2008
We offered you to be the new jeff
Robert - June 2, 2008
the pay sucks.
I don’t want that job.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
You get paid so much now...
JI - June 2, 2008
I get to write less.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Cutting and pasting the entire content of rotoworld must be taxing.
JI - June 2, 2008
oh snap
Robert - June 2, 2008
this dig went over my head.
Our flow has been interrupted. Bad clubhouse chemistry. Damn you Nick!!
Matthew - June 2, 2008
So much accomplished with such little effort
ningwers - June 2, 2008
That's how I role.
JI - June 2, 2008
...
Never change, JI
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Is his name actually Nick?
I thought there was some sort of outing that that wasn’t his real name and Jeff had just supposed it was or something.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Who are we talking about?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Nickaloadon
Robert - June 2, 2008
Nickelodeon
holy jesus
Robert - June 2, 2008
Oddly enough
That didn’t help at all
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Jeff gets all the girls
Robert - June 2, 2008
Change you have no choice but to accept :)
ningwers - June 2, 2008
thank god you showed up
we need another good poster in here.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
All of the good posters just like to make an entrance
Robert - June 2, 2008
I entered with an entire monolouge.
JI - June 2, 2008
I want to entire in fashion similar to this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCJeR0UebR8&feature=related
Robert - June 2, 2008
i want one of these made for me:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrejJHPnVfk
JI - June 2, 2008
I want doves to be released into the air when I make my entrance.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
gay
JI - June 2, 2008
yeah see, we're way off now.
Fucking clubhouse cancer.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I put up numbers.
I’m the Jack Cust of commenting.
JI - June 2, 2008
There's nothing gay about a John Woo entrance
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Rec'd
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I wouldn't get your hopes up
I took the red eye back from Seattle last night, and I’ve spent all day working and packing. This Guinness is pretty much the only thing all day that hasn’t sucked on some level.
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Needs more Graham
BrettJMiller - June 2, 2008
He's the Condy Rice of that ticket.
JI - June 2, 2008
Don't make me own you
Graham MacAree - June 2, 2008
She's powerful.
JI - June 2, 2008
If you are trying to hurt me, well--- you are succeeding.
JI - June 2, 2008
So Washburn sucks balls?
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Is that a new one?
I like it.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
This needs to be a reality at the next LL night.
JI - June 2, 2008
Oh noes.
It’s Mama Bear.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
the fuck?
JI - June 2, 2008
I'm starting to think a manatee writes for Coach.
JI - June 2, 2008
Swims across the pool to the colored balls?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Can we start a book of "Coachisms" and one of "Buttholisms"
Fin - June 2, 2008
It's Family Guy dude...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
It's South Park.
JI - June 2, 2008
It's South Park talking about Family Guy.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
SUBTHREAD CLOSED.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
It's South Park talking about Family Guy while making Simpsons references.
JI - June 2, 2008
It is?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
SUBTHREAD CLOSED
JI - June 2, 2008
Jeff is Papa, Matthew is Mama.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
If you have to explain, you probably shouldn't say it
Omerta - June 2, 2008
I was actually glad he explained it.
Less for me to wonder about.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Why?
marinator - June 2, 2008
See the thread after
Jeff and Matthew went to their “Pitch F/X conference”.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
You should punt.
JI - June 2, 2008
I punt!
I’m the first string punter and kicker on my freshman team. Proud?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Don't make me use the Coach Owens speacial on someone other than Coach.
JI - June 2, 2008
Okay sorry.
Got excited.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Matthew stricks you as a bitch?
Robert - June 2, 2008
What's this a goldilocks reference?
Stumped me again Coach
marinator - June 2, 2008
I am genuinely confused
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
I think what everyone is trying to say
MFAN - June 2, 2008
I was wondering when someone would pull this out.
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
I'm so non-conformist that I'm going to non-conform from all of you
I don’t mind this comment. It’s a half-decent attempt Coach.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Yeah I didn't get it, but when he explained it I was there for support.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Everybody who responeded after me just got goth owned.
JI - June 2, 2008
I appreciate your knowledge of my references
and have shown my appreciation by commending your comment. Well done sir!
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I didn't get cable until I went to college
you have no idea how hard me and my friends overdosed on SP.
JI - June 2, 2008
I go have about 5 shows that I cycle through having on continuously in the background
Futurama, House, SP, MST3K and a rotation of lesser shows like Sports Night or Coupling.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
We seem to have a similar playlist.
JI - June 2, 2008
I go through
Mariners, Family Guy, Futurama when on, 48 hours murder mysteries, and Breaking Bad when it’s in season.
I watch quite little TV for a 14 year old, so I’m told.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
To be clear you can't flag for being dumb/being coach, right?
BrettJMiller - June 2, 2008
Depends on the level of stupidity.
JI - June 2, 2008
I think that'd be unfair.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
of course you can
mark it as inappropriate and then just say stupid or something in the message field.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Rec'd
Gomez - June 2, 2008
So awesome
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
In Baseball Mogul 2008...
If you put Jarrod Washburn on the trading block, you don’t get any offers. Nada. He’s immovable. Same thing with Miguel Batista.
The binary gods foresaw this.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
Richie...opposite field hit?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Goddammit I hate when the thread is close mid-thought
I was going to say that Japanese space-age robot anime is gay, and that the yellow ranger is a chick, not a dude.
JI - June 2, 2008
I admit it was closed a touch early
but just a touch.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
sometimes the honesty is too much.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
And I have to close the thread and hide
Gomez - June 2, 2008
like JI I appreciate your knowledge of my references and have shown it thusly.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Til we both break down and cry
(would work better with LFoJL)
JI - June 2, 2008
Thanks
I will not, however, hold you, JI or anyone in my arms.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
I thought you'd have replies for me.
And yes I agree now, but 1999 me was impressed. Bear in mind I was 5.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Well that's depressing.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Most Japanese meccha anime does suck.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Some fan in the stands is dressed in Johjima's jersey, the full gear and even Johjima's red glove
I bet Washburn already hates his pitch calling.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
Seriously put on NBC for the Stanley Cup Finals
Right now. This is a fantastic game.
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
that's what i am watching
Tony S - June 2, 2008
Turn to Lifetime right now a some bitch is having a mental breakdown and crying into her pillow
marinator - June 2, 2008
Or Hallmark.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Lifetime is great while high/drunk
the shit is really fuckin funny
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
So many choices
who knew that the Mariners sucking would open up a whole other world of viewing possibilities…
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Soooo close
Detroit soooooo close.
The only red jersey team I like in the sports world. Fuck Pittsburgh, they can have the Cup when they give us our Rings back.
Slica - June 2, 2008
I hate Pitt /Flyers fan
but I’ll be honest: I wanted OT.
Now the Wings need to finish it
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Is this the last game of the series?
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Game 5 with the Wings up 3-1.
So hopefully yes.
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
3-1 Red Wings
Obviously, first to win 4.
Slica - June 2, 2008
That thing is seriously up for "best cap of the year"?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Al Diablo con Los Guapos is on..the...spanish channel.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
The Devil with the Handsome men?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Oh I don't speak German.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Washburn is this season's Ho
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
He needs to get pimpslapped by KA
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Was too easy.
I’ve learned to let those go by, thanks to JI and kentroyals.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
If I had the KA Funk Blast pic it would be better
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Yeah okay I'll give you that.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Hey... wait a minute... my sig...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008

dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
EARLY!
LATE?
JI - June 2, 2008
Ah this wont end well.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Removing the pedophile.
At last.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
What was the extent of Reed's error?
Matthew - June 2, 2008
bobble, 1 base
I was making a Raul gif at the time, so I dunno exactly.
JI - June 2, 2008
He overthrew second on Kotchman's first base hit.
Could easily have been called a 2B.
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
Bobbled while trying to field a basehit.
Allowed the hitter to take second.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Kids and their immaturity. When will they ever learn?
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
Yeah, not a big error
Just a bobble.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
Keep him in!
I like to watch him get shelled.
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
Hey look they are starting to repeat House season 4 from the beginning
I have my remote at the ready
marinator - June 2, 2008
Now is your chance to raise your House%
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Woody Paige wants to trade Matt Holliday for Cliff Lee and change
Maybe we can convince Colorado to take Jarrod Washburn. His suck pitch is immune to the effects of Coors Field.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
Just get him off the team
I don’t care if we trade him for a fringe prospect and eat all his salary, just get him the fuck out
marinator - June 2, 2008
If i had the opportunity to trade him for a tuna sandwich
i would do it in a heartbeat.
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
Tuna is too good for that kid diddler
Egg salad
marinator - June 2, 2008
i was trying to think of a cheap sandwich
is tuna cheaper than bologna?
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
No
marinator - June 2, 2008
How about just a peanut butter sandwhich.
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
fine
i will settle with a mayo sandwich.
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
Yeah, I was just reading that too.
I love FJM.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
Just a bit outside.
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
Please don't walk one in bud.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
This isn't embarassing enough
GS please
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Nice pitch.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
God he even looks like a pedophile.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Like Silva doesn't?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Silva looks like a serial rapist.
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
Captain Crunch maybe
Or Twinkie-O’s
marinator - June 2, 2008
needs one more comma
JI - June 2, 2008
or the removal of a pronoun.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
That would also work.
JI - June 2, 2008
I've been corrected by JI.
I will have to commit ritualistic seppuku now.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
When did seppuku go in and Jihad go out?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Seppuku and jihad could not be more different.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
I meant as memes
I didn’t mean they were comparable.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Brian is embarassed. He wished to off himself, not engage in holy war.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
Again...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I correct you all the time:
JI - June 2, 2008
Is this because I abandoned your campaign for Jeff?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
No
but notice I use my own shift key. It’s like the Who no longer playing John Entwistle songs on tour.
JI - June 2, 2008
We would all die
Robert - June 2, 2008
What the fuck why are my comments moving around???
Robert - June 2, 2008
Are they gypsies?
Did you hire gypsies, Robert?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Are they nomads??
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I approve of this analogy.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Ironically, I am one of the better qualified peole here to be an editor.
JI - June 2, 2008
I think my editing is alright
My substance is questionable to you guys, though.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Hahaha I like this
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
We would all die
Robert - June 2, 2008
Probably from laughter
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I've never seen laughter burst into flames
Robert - June 2, 2008
Wait yes I have
Robert - June 2, 2008
Ehhhh don't do that...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
My brother died when his laughter turned to fire!
JI - June 2, 2008
It's Oklahoma City
so it’s fair game for Seattlites at least for the next couple of years
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Yeah, I guess your reasoning is there
I still think it’s pretty harsh.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Think of the laughter of the children in the daycare
Robert - June 2, 2008
I did.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
needs more jading from life experience
Omerta - June 2, 2008
That was one of the more creative ways to celebrate Hitler's birthday.
JI - June 2, 2008
One of my HS classmates was a hot chick from OKC
She was rather nonplussed in recounting a story of an aunt who got blown up in that bombing. It’s like she didn’t care. It was almost funny.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
Well played
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
I bet I'd do better if I gave a shit.
JI - June 2, 2008
Was anyone else hoping he would dive and miss?
JI - June 2, 2008
I was.
I was also surprised then he caught it.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
*when
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
It was too easy.
JI - June 2, 2008
So Torii Hunter went 0-3 with 2 Ks against Washburn.
Someone’s committing seppuku later
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Ball hit to left field, immediately Dave says "Might be trouble."
BrianL - June 2, 2008
ONE OF US.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I really want to Photoshop a "Gabba Gabba Hey!" sign into Sims' hand.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
into?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
In place of a microphone.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
Wow, I wanted Raul to miss that
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Losing to the Angels is unacceptable.
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
Even in the hunt for Strasburg?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Nothing's unacceptable when it comes to SAS.
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Child molestation?
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
Maybe we would have to forfeit the rest of our games then.
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
whoa. who is that?
ack - June 2, 2008
This has been a surprisingly quick game.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Washburn started.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I think you misspelled mercifully
ningwers - June 2, 2008
indeed
Omerta - June 2, 2008
This goalie interference shit is bullshit
2 in OT so far??? Fuck you refs
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
the fix is in
Tony S - June 2, 2008
what channel?
Robert - June 2, 2008
NBC
So probably 4
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Or 3 for me.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
106, 6-1, 86-3, or 6
JI - June 2, 2008
Weird. In Philly its 6i.-j
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Its invisible on dish network
Robert - June 2, 2008
Actually they just pre-empted it for a special on cancer.
Robert - June 2, 2008
Isn't Coach big into the Wings?
Shouldn’t he be on the edge of his seat now?
JI - June 2, 2008
I swear. I am the only non-hockey person here. It's bothersome.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I'm not big into it either
but the game does have it’s appeal.
JI - June 2, 2008
I'll say that the story that would later become miracle is impressive
I just am not that into it, and I don’t really know the teams.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
*Joins you in non-hockeydom*
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
Thanks bud.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
There really aren't
that many. But its skewed because our leader is and because my Hockey % is like a lot
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Yeah...kinda makes you wonder
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
My HS classmates were all into the Wings
That was obnoxious as, at the time, they were hockey’s version of the Yankees.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
My history teacher is way into the Wings, Tiggers, and Lions
But in all fairness she’s from Michigan.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
this is an example of a pointless comment.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
the typo saved it
JI - June 2, 2008
It was no typo.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
makes it even funnier
JI - June 2, 2008
I know.
I was dressing to impress you.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
It was a spacestation!
joof - June 2, 2008
Tiggers *are* wonderful things, after all
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
They're overrated
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Like supersoakers.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
yes
JI - June 2, 2008
that was an example of a good non-sequitir comment
JI - June 2, 2008
Thanks JI.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
This isn't VEB
we don’t have to rub each other’s balls after every good comment.
JI - June 2, 2008
Yeah okay you ended that one pretty well.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
But it feels soooooooooooooooooooo good
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Yeah, water fights in general never live up to their expectations
Except when water balloons are involved, but that has the added bonus of the hilarious impact
ningwers - June 2, 2008
true
JI - June 2, 2008
The big thing was
is that I could piss harder than a Supersoaker would shoot. It was a misleading ad.
JI - June 2, 2008
I always liked water fights
But supersoakers would get broken and like be hard to refill and shit.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I would just start using my melee attack after a while
Robert - June 2, 2008
What'd that involve?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Supersoaker to the back of their skull
Robert - June 2, 2008
I attached a bayonet and gutted some sumbitches
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
And a Spencer 7 shot.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
one of my favorite freshman moments.
A hallmate and I were finished a few days early and were kicking around the dorm until everyone else finished. One night some people across the hall were studying and repeatedly kept barking at us for making too much noise in our lounge around 8-9pm. So we started lobbing peanuts at them across the atrium. They responded by closing the shutters to their lounge. My hallmate ended the fight by filling up a giant water balloon and shotputting it into the shutters whereupon it shattered and soaked them all and their notes.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
So it's okay for you to muse about school and happenings
But I get facepalm?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
This was on topic.
JI - June 2, 2008
And funny
ningwers - June 2, 2008
and therefore interesting
JI - June 2, 2008
Exactly
ningwers - June 2, 2008
indeed
Robert - June 2, 2008
agreed
JI - June 2, 2008
Fo shizzle
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Okay.
I stand corrected.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Mine have been too...
i.e. the punting thing…
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Eh
No one cares about your
fantasyHS football teamdbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
I hated high school sports
Robert - June 2, 2008
Loved them, but dwelling on them is stupid
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
I'm in 8th grade...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Replace HS with MS
Point remains the same
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Fact
Most of the Tahoma box scores reported in the PI from 2003-2004 were made up by a teacher.
Robert - June 2, 2008
I used to have that job.
JI - June 2, 2008
So did I
We need a Robert/JI venn diagram
Robert - June 2, 2008
I got to be bench coach
Which meant I was official scorer, which meant I dealt with the media, which meant people would beg me for hits.
JI - June 2, 2008
That must have been interesting
Johnson 3-t6 with a Htr and w2 RBOs
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
They stopped paying the students to cover it
and instead used a lazy ass substitute teacher.
Robert - June 2, 2008
There's a difference.
I wasn’t referring to football or an actual punt. We were all discussing actual applications of water balloons v. Supersoakers.
JI - June 2, 2008
Ah yes you're right.
I still saw the word and got excited. I apologize.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I like that you capitalized Supersoakers
ningwers - June 2, 2008
College is more interesting that HS. always
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
And quit yer bitchin
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
That was bold.
JI - June 2, 2008
My friend pissed out a 2nd floor window
and into the corner room below us. They were not amused.
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
That escalated rather quickly
Robert - June 2, 2008
Our study cubbies has dead things that smelled like they were dead.
JI - June 2, 2008
I always fucking hated everything about Winnie the Pooh except for Eeyore.
JI - June 2, 2008
While Eeyore is heavily underrated
ningwers - June 2, 2008
exactly
JI - June 2, 2008
I've been compared to eeyore
Robert - June 2, 2008
So's my dad.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
tigger stole my bicycle
Robert - June 2, 2008
That was pointless.
JI - June 2, 2008
Your college major was equally pointless
Robert - June 2, 2008
That's Racist
I think
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
My history teacher had her bike stolen once
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Was that a jab at me
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
JI - June 2, 2008
It was hard going to school with a bunch of Red Wing and Av fans in high school
That probably had something to do with me falling for the Sens
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Fuck off Hunter.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Oh fuck you Torii Hunter
Gomez - June 2, 2008
FUCK YOU TORII
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Torii Hunter
Grrr….
ThundaPC - June 2, 2008
wow what a snag by hunter
Omerta - June 2, 2008
fuck you Hunter
MFAN - June 2, 2008
First Jim Edmonds reference since 2004!
JI - June 2, 2008
JI - June 2, 2008
Sooooo this game looks like it's been a gigantic waste of time
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Should we start a ticker on how many runs Torii's snatched from us?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
sure. It's holding at 2.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Isn't it more like 4?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
no
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I said runs, not occasions.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
ugh
Matthew - June 2, 2008
3?
JI - June 2, 2008
goddamn you Hunter.
most other hitters I wouldn’t give a shit, but Reed needs those to stay in the lineup.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
bad day for everyone except Cairo
JI - June 2, 2008
I would give a shit if he did that to KA or Wlad.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Don't worry...
Squinty didn’t see a thing.
Someone just told him it was a double, he nodded in approval, and began squinting at home plate again.
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
Oh wells.
Time to watch Vince McMahon make some undeserving 12 year old kid with a ‘you can’t see me shirt’ on a millionaire.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
That was close.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
DAMN
That looked like it had chalk.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
so close it was fair?
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Yeah, that looked fair..
krb - June 2, 2008
On the replay that looked like it was easily fair.
Happybelly - June 2, 2008
that looked fair
MFAN - June 2, 2008
The Umpire strikes back
...that looked fair.
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
Inning over
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
7 pitches, 7 swings, 7 balls put into foul territory
is that some sort of jackpot?
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Why would you ever throw Kenji a strike?
ack - June 2, 2008
We won the daily scratch-and-suck
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Kenji lobbying for an expansion of fair territory.
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
On the radio
They have a 7 in the 7th contest where the winner of a drawing gets some big prize if the Mariners score 7 runs in the 7th inning. In other words, they win a house or something after hell freezes over.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
Wow
is there a reason FSN doesn’t have a camera that looks down the lines from home plate like every other baseball broadcast ever?
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
Yeah, rally fries shots.
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
FSN Midwest used a rad dead-CF angle for it's pitch shots.
They’re all different.
JI - June 2, 2008
Is the game over yet.
JI - June 2, 2008
yes
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
I thought so.
JI - June 2, 2008
That was a strike.
Not that it matters
Happybelly - June 2, 2008
I agree on both counts.
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
Yuni you are really terrible
marinator - June 2, 2008
I have radio
Should Richie have had that throw?
Gomez - June 2, 2008
He could have
but it was Yuni’s fault.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Would've been a tough play
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
probably
but it was a bad throw. A replacement level defender would have made the pick.
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
if a replacement level defender makes the pick
then it’s on Richie.
And I agree, any 1B with talent makes that pick. It was on line enough.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
No
It was all Yuni
marinator - June 2, 2008
No.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Yes
Matthew - June 2, 2008
One of these things is not like the other
Gomez - June 2, 2008
It's tough,
but I think you have to be able to make that play as a major league first baseman. blah blah blah I know Richie’s not a major league first baseman but you know what I mean.
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
I don't think he was serious.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I very much am.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
He probably was serious
and we were probably wrong because Sexson is pretty terrible too
marinator - June 2, 2008
He was serious
If the throw’s in reach and you’re a 1B, you have to be able to pick it if it’s off the mark.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
Fuck off Yuni.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Cha Seung Baek lasted 4.1 innings tonight - consolation?
Tony S - June 2, 2008
Nope.
ningwers - June 2, 2008
So is Yuni good for ANYTHING on this team?
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
He's pretty funny.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
JI - June 2, 2008
Just what I was gonna mention.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Jose's gaze is dipping dangerously low there on Yuni's backside.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Needs dotted lines photoshopped in.
JI - June 2, 2008
I have a lame attempt
but flickr is crapping out on me. right now. Stay tuned though.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
ok, I totally blanked on captions so please suggest better ones
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Can't blame him
Yuni’s got some serious junk in the trunk these days.
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Vidro's veteran guidance is paying off.
Fin - June 2, 2008
More like Rich White's influence.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
But only when he pulls his socks up.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Now I understand the relationship a bit better
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
Chasing people down on the off chance we win on a walk off hit
ningwers - June 2, 2008
He comes in handy like ~3 times a year but it's totally worth the contract and the sucktitude
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Cairo would've had that.
ThundaPC - June 2, 2008
Who?
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
good job Yuni
you clearly needed to rush that throw.
yuni fucking sucks
MFAN - June 2, 2008
I noticed he's gotten really lazy with his defense
Clearly the standard for defense isn’t very high since they keep playing Ibanez out in LF day in and day out.
Fin - June 2, 2008
I would be in favor of Yuni for 2B if get rid of Lopez.
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
Where's LFOJL?
Defend your honor!
Fin - June 2, 2008
Jose did it for him
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Yeah...
Jose just made me look foolish.
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
Don't worry, it was already foolish before he hit that
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
naw
I was never suggesting we get rid of Lopez. I was saying if a hole ever opedn up at 2B, put Yuni there.
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
It will never happen. You don't just give away All-Star second basemen
seattlebruin - June 3, 2008
That makes no sense
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
an injured mike morse at SS would suffice
Tony S - June 2, 2008
Let's not go overboard here.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
That does seem to fit tonight's theme
So I’ll give him points for consistency
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Mac says
J-Lo is the MVP so far. Suck on that.
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
Our MVP
just homered
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
DAMN STRAIGHT
seattlebruin - June 3, 2008
Over the years I have found that the games are less interesting when we suck.
JI - June 2, 2008
And the gamethreads usually more fun.
But we’ve struggled lately
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
I've found that food is much better when it tastes good
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I have found that christmas usually falls in the 25th.
JI - June 2, 2008
Where in the 25th?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
5 am to 5 pm
JI - June 2, 2008
In the butthol
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
That makes baby jesus cry
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Why do I have to be mentioned even when I stay away from the conversation at hand?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
because you make comments like this
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Please Matthew?
Can I maybe get a little respect? Just a tad?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Respect is granted until it's lost and from there it needs to be earned back.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Gotta earn it Coach Jr.
JI - June 2, 2008
We can call him Co-Jo
Robert - June 2, 2008
You can't ask for respect.
Seriously man don’t beg and shit
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Because your name is butthol
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Because your username is butthol
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Because you really are the new coach
Robert - June 2, 2008
Or E. All of the above
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I hated multiple choice tests like this
Robert - June 2, 2008
(Psst... The answer's E)
ningwers - June 2, 2008
But its also A, B,C,D
And scantron machines cant handle more than one answer
Robert - June 2, 2008
Fucking waste of my time.
JI - June 2, 2008
Also how do you know that that wasn't a simple typo, JI-style?
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
I think, even under pressure, I could spell butthole.
JI - June 2, 2008
I have faith you can spell most words; you seem smart.
But typos are typos. Siht happens
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Dude, your name is butthol
it is the worst screen name of all time
JI - June 2, 2008
Nuh uh :(
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
uh huh
JI - June 2, 2008
Point ---> JI
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Okay, you're in a close second to dograpingmcbabyeater
ningwers - June 2, 2008
That would be a great name
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
I secretly think dbroncos31 is the worst screen name ever
SHHHH do not tell him
marinator - June 2, 2008
The Broncos suck and there is no #31 on the team.
Oops
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Exception
http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SEA/SEA200508090.shtml
Robert - June 2, 2008
granted
JI - June 2, 2008
LOAFIE STRIKES
Gomez - June 2, 2008
LOAFIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Funk blast?
JI - June 2, 2008
Damn lag
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Lopez!?
ThundaPC - June 2, 2008
Woo! Atta boy Loafie!
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
Woooo Loafie!
Pointless, but woo.
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
What the...
Lopez HOMER!
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
LOPEZ!!
MFAN - June 2, 2008
LOPEZ!
I LESS THEN 3 LOPEZ!
joof - June 2, 2008
hey, 3 more of those...
and we totally win!!!!!!!11
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
Thats good
Robert - June 2, 2008
We're still boned.
JI - June 2, 2008
That's bad
Robert - June 2, 2008
Coach is going to take us out for frogurt after the game.
JI - June 2, 2008
That's just strange
Robert - June 2, 2008
We get our choice of topping.
JI - June 2, 2008
Can mine not have arsenic in it?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Arsenic isn't bloody enough for Coach
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Can mine not be sitting in the business end of a RPG launcher?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
RPG's are for lazy people
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
That would be a very lazy way to kill somebody
Robert - June 2, 2008
I assume that's how the coup begins
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I just realized
“coach” not “Coach Owens”
...
JI - June 2, 2008
OT: where do people download pitchfx data for analysis?
FrayLo - June 2, 2008
direct from mlb's xml
example inning
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I couldn't find a link on the MLB site
maybe i’m just blind.
(we’re gonna win an indoor soccer game one day)
FrayLo - June 2, 2008
it's not a published link AFAIK
Matthew - June 2, 2008
that's probably why i couldn't find it
FrayLo - June 2, 2008
I just use the trojan that I installed on Matthew's computer
Robert - June 2, 2008
Jose Arredondo!
Just call up the entire Salt Lake roster, why don’t you.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
How has Vidro not pulled a hamstring yet?
JI - June 2, 2008
There are no hot dogs there
Gomez - June 2, 2008
This guy looks very similar to Santana
marinator - June 2, 2008
I tihnk he just wants to see Turbo dance.
JI - June 2, 2008
Has there been a Dave Sims Philly comment yet?
cause we are due for one if there hasn’t
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
Yes.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
damn, i must have been watching the hockey game
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
Something about JJ getting booed yesterday reminding him of his hometown of Philly.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
3rd OT with the fate of the free world hanging in the balance
Go Penguins
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
This game is nuts.
R.J. Anderson - June 2, 2008
Isn't it tommorow where you are?
JI - June 2, 2008
Yes, by thirty minutes.
R.J. Anderson - June 2, 2008
How's the future?
JI - June 2, 2008
The jetpacks are kinda cool.
R.J. Anderson - June 2, 2008
Oh...
I was hoping for rocket pants
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Fuck.
This is not invitation to discuss the rockets in your collective pants.
ningwers - June 2, 2008
My rocket is ni----
JI - June 2, 2008
Less bleak then I was expecting.
JI - June 2, 2008
how much longer until the ice turns into a slurpee?
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
They could be powered by human suffering
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Others or your own?
JI - June 2, 2008
Talk about the Sens and see if you go faster
Robert - June 2, 2008
I am indifferent to the Sen
JI - June 2, 2008
I'm sure there's a broad market of suffering you could...
God damn you, Robert
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I want to make a movie about humans being used as batteries
Robert - June 2, 2008
Sims:
“They’ve cut the deficit in half”
4-1 = 3
3/2 = ...2
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
Oh good, more fractured math
Gomez - June 2, 2008
integer division?
Matthew - June 2, 2008
So we've been screwed out of half a run
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
YEAH!!!!
I want my half a run!
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
actually
my point was that Sims is dumb. But I guess that’s old news.
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
this game really needs a K-rod blown save
MFAN - June 2, 2008
But....Strasburg
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
shut up
i will never root for the angels.
mr.smartypants - June 2, 2008
There's the spirit!
Seriously though Strasburg
marinator - June 2, 2008
Come, smartypants!
Join the Dark Side!
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
Do you think Cavs fans felt the same way about the Bulls during the '02-'03 season?
No. Sacrifices have to be made. We have to embrace failure. It’s always darkest before dawn, etc.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
Just think of all the great tank jobs of all time
of course, to tank, you actually have to TRY to suck and… well…. yeah.
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
Blown save and vultured win
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Did someone say my name?
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
needs an elf hat
JI - June 2, 2008
Elf jokes arent very funny when your the buthol of them
Robert - June 2, 2008
I see what you did there
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Joe Saunders better regress hard.
JI - June 2, 2008
Pitchers show grit by tearing their rotator cuffs and elbow ligaments.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Dammit wrong reply.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Sean Green's 30th ap in 58 games
Niehaus says he has a rubber arm. Methinks he’s in constant pain and he just never says anything because he wants to keep his job.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
JI - June 2, 2008
His improved velocity says otherwise.
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
*this outing
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
Didn't they say the same thing about Ryan Franklin?
I don’t like where this is going…
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
Green is the shit
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
This game needs more Yzerman and Shanahan
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Sims just suggested we could score 3 runs.
JI - June 2, 2008
Well, Beltre might homer, or a few ground balls might find holes or...
Wait, in one inning?
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
well, we could.
I mean, there’s no rules against it or anything. It’s just never going happen.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Yeah, I was thinking about this.
JI - June 2, 2008
I like how Matthew phrased that.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Raul - KA - Reed.
Huh. There’s a little glimmer of hope.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
A glimmer of false hope
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
None of those will lay off of the slider.
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
Is today the day Francisco Rodriguez's arm finally explodes?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
it could fall off and he would get us out left handed.
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
oh please oh please oh please
JI - June 2, 2008
That would be horrible for my fanta...
...err, who would entertain such schadenfreude?
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
If you can't laugh at someone else's misfortune
then there’s something seriously wrong with you.
JI - June 2, 2008
Hey the guy that said the Angels always score 4 runs was right
Apologies to you good sir
marinator - June 2, 2008
Yeah, but I also thought Wash would hold us to 3 in 6.
So I get points off.
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
Nothing but sliders...
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
Makes me hunger for White Castle
Yet I’ve never been :(
marinator - June 2, 2008
You aren't missing much
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
What about the flavor crystals that explode in your mouth?
I’ve been mislead!
marinator - June 2, 2008
You have.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Poprocks?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I have been in Ohio
It isn’t that good. It’s actually one of the cheapest quality fast foods there is. The Harold and Kumar movie was sure a brilliant marketing gimmicks wasn’t it?
Fin - June 2, 2008
Watch him hit a homer and be labeled a selfish prick.
JI - June 2, 2008
Not quite
Susheel Ramasahayam - June 2, 2008
What a team player
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Red Wing's D>>>Penguins D>>>>>>>>>>>>>(x googleplex)M's D
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
buthols A sqaud team's D >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. M's D
JI - June 2, 2008
Fuck yeah!
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I always thought that googleplex was a queer number
Robert - June 2, 2008
10^100,000th?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
And the foregone conclusion has come forth, and gone
Gomez - June 2, 2008
Hey look we lost.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Strasburg
Happybelly - June 2, 2008
Ballgame
Fin - June 2, 2008
I miss him too.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
We wo...
aw :(
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
we blow >:(
JI - June 2, 2008
>:o
Robert - June 2, 2008
go get them tomorrow M's
mariners11 - June 2, 2008
No...
Strasburg!
Fin - June 2, 2008
i'm too much of a die hard
To want the M’s to lose
mariners11 - June 2, 2008
Just think of it this way
if they keep losing, they will make roster moves which will benefit the team in the long run. If they win, it instills false hope and makes them keep playing crappy veterans.
Fin - June 2, 2008
not if Bavasi is in charge of the roster moves
mariners11 - June 2, 2008
THe only reason to look forward to baseball best record
:)
Edgar for Mayor - June 2, 2008
Do we have to?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Oh, they can
It doesn’t mean they’ll win or anything, but they’re more than welcome to get out there and play.
Gomez - June 2, 2008
If we win coach will take us out to Eatza Pizza.
JI - June 2, 2008
shot cheesebread
Robert - June 2, 2008
Which coach are talking about again?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
coach not Coach
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
The one that wants to harm us or the one that wants to feel good
Robert - June 2, 2008
The one that wants to harm us to feel good
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Aye.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
So which one is that again?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
All of them.
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
For the record
this motivation failed to work.
JI - June 2, 2008
We're wary of coaches in all forms now
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
IT NOT FAIR THE GIANTS ARE SCORING RUNS AND WE ARENT
JI - June 2, 2008
Let's lose the next 2
I want to see carnage damn it
marinator - June 2, 2008
Ready to go
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Well played.
TheOptimist - June 2, 2008
You are prepared
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Quick where's the doom screenshots??
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Strasburg +1!!!!
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Yiff!
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
I don't understand the meaning of furries
I don’t get it.
Is it some sort of perversion?
marinator - June 2, 2008
something like that
BrianL really hates them too.
Fin - June 2, 2008
STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Not sexual perversion I don't think.
JI - June 2, 2008
In most cases, it is.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Not according to their maniefesto.
JI - June 2, 2008
And according to the M's the Mojo is Risin'
People lie. They lie right to your face
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
It said it was a family event.
JI - June 2, 2008
Jesus Fucking Christ they have a manifesto?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Not offically, I don't think so.
JI - June 2, 2008
Ever read NAMBLA's?
I rest my fucking case.
Yiff in hell, furries…
The Typical Idiot Fan - June 3, 2008
O Rlly?
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
good heavens
JI - June 2, 2008
AAAAAAARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
BrianL - June 2, 2008
You broke Brian!
HAHAHAHA
ningwers - June 2, 2008
STABBY STABBY STABBY RAPEY RAPEY RAPEY DIE DIE DIE!
BrianL - June 2, 2008
rapey?
yes yes yes
He’s gone mad!
JI - June 2, 2008
Uhh hey my cousin died in a stabby rapey die accident so can you not say that
Thanks
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
What about a stabby surprise sex die accident?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
The best part is that's probably two guys.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
gay
JI - June 2, 2008
Almost certainly
ningwers - June 2, 2008
If you view the whole video
you can clearly see that one of the foxes (no puns plz) has knockers.
JI - June 2, 2008
So two women?
Fin - June 2, 2008
probably not
JI - June 2, 2008
Mariners do not approve,
Jeff re-elected
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
yeah, but not this one.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Hmm...
I’m surprised that the raccoon is the pitcher. I would’ve though the cougar would be in charge…
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I like the two slow dancing in the back.
JI - June 2, 2008
It's a fetish
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Well... actually it often is a fetish
many people just like anthropomorphic animals
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I wish there was anthropomorphic animals in real life
Would make things much more interesting. I hope that didn’t sound too Coach-y?
Fin - June 2, 2008
no, that would be cool.
though they’d probably be really dumb.
though so are humans. and animals are generally cuter…
Matthew - June 2, 2008
That's a dangerous path you're treading on...
ningwers - June 2, 2008
You wanna see the picturer of the naked half-cat half-girl?
JI - June 2, 2008
See... when I said "dangerous path"
you apparently heard “pictures of naked half-cat women” I can see where the confusion came in.
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I'm just trying to get us to the end result in the quickest amount of time.
JI - June 2, 2008
I appreciate the Max Power way of life as much as the next guy
but I’d like to hold out hope that I can go to bed tonight without seeing sexified animal women
ningwers - June 2, 2008
It's an affront to God.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
What about furry filkers?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
No commercials in OT was a fantastic idea
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Bill Kreuger Nugget of Wisdom:
“If you’re scoring runs Jarrod Washburn is your guy.”
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Again, 07 Ho.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
As long as you score 9 of them he's solid as a rock
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
I honestly thought that was a dig on him.. like, he's your Golden Thong.
and then realized he meant ‘If you’re shelling the other team, he has a chance’
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
Are you serious?
Good call I guess but fuuuuuck a double-minor this game’s over
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
Pittsburgh wins the pennant!
JI - June 2, 2008
I hate Pittsburgh
so much. >:(>:(>:(>:(>:(>:(>:(>:(.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
hahahaha
suck it
JI - June 2, 2008
DIAF.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
Cunts
That was a great game by Fleury
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
HOLY SHIT THE AIDS EPSIODE IS ON
I THOUGHT IT WAS BANNED
JI - June 2, 2008
Which show?
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
SP
JI - June 2, 2008
The Jared episode?
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
yesindeedydo
JI - June 2, 2008
Great episode.
Too bad I’m 3 hours ahead and missed it
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
there's always the internet
JI - June 2, 2008
Yep.
But guys I g2g to bed bbl
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
NOT A CHAT ROOM!
Fin - June 2, 2008
LOL
asl?
dbroncos31 - June 2, 2008
I learned the hard way...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I love that episode. Anyone have a pic of him beating a dead horse?
Fin - June 2, 2008
Woah nice!
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
pittsburg wins
good stuff the OT
Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
Anyone get a pic of Mac crying?
Fin - June 2, 2008
Was Mac crying during postgame again?
Good lord. Someone fire him, please. This team is going to cause irreversible damage to his psyche.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
seriously, how many tears can one man have?
MFAN - June 2, 2008
Ask him:
JI - June 2, 2008
He always looks like that.
ThundaPC - June 2, 2008
I thought there was no crying in baseball
Tom Hanks would disapprove of Mac and his girlish emotions
marinator - June 2, 2008
(not a rickroll)
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv8LbgJV5L8
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Why the fuck would you post this?
Sunshine and lollipops is reserved for Felix only.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
It's something to look forward to isn't it?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Don't do it again.
That is a holy song.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Let's call it a precursor.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
punt
JI - June 2, 2008
Lets call it never do it again.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Well, yeah, of course.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
or high speed chase music
JI - June 2, 2008
zomg no politcs
Robert - June 2, 2008
What, he got fired just now?
Sweet.
lyleleander - June 2, 2008
What's that now?
ningwers - June 2, 2008
What?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Where did you hear that?
and by “he” do you mean Mac?
marinator - June 2, 2008
No, I think he's just crying because they lost again.
Fin - June 2, 2008
First time I've noticed Nicole Z.
Wow.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Serial?
Fin - June 2, 2008
I don't watch postgame normally.
But today I’m too lazy to reach the remote.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Me too
It makes you wonder why Angie Mentink still has her job. Wait, no it doesn’t, she’s a veteran.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
He's totally serial
ningwers - June 2, 2008
mmm...cereal...
Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
super serial.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
"noticed"?
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I'm still wow.
Yikes. Even with a thick sweater there’s not much to the imagination there.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Huh. Bucky Jacobsen was in the crowd today. Per Baker.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Awesome.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Is he interested in playing 1B/DH?
Right field perhaps?
BrianL - June 2, 2008
LF upgrade!
JI - June 2, 2008
Git er dun
Yeeeehaw
Show of hands how many of you were fans?
I was
marinator - June 2, 2008
*shows hand*
Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
I'm suprised Baker knows who he is
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
I wonder how much he made of those Banner Bank ads...
JI - June 2, 2008
Does he know how selfish he was?
He caused a huge chain reaction of sucky moves pretty much.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Did he take up 1 seat or 2?
Gomez - June 2, 2008
*shows hand*
Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
Reply-to.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
sorry i missed the click i guess
Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
Sokay bud.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
Well, night guys
Hope to see you tomorrow. Let’s get a win one of these days.
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
bedtime already?
JI - June 2, 2008
Yeah...
qrsouther - June 2, 2008
I bet if we kept replying you'd stay up another hour
marinator - June 2, 2008
We don't need a repeat of the PR disaster thread
ningwers - June 2, 2008
No, like my internet's off at 10.
qrsouther - June 3, 2008
Well that's a shame
Jeff Sullivan - June 3, 2008
Yeah man seriously :(
It puts me off LL for like the 12 remaining minutes of a game thread, when I really really wanna be there.
qrsouther - June 3, 2008
Rough.
I used to watch Letterman before I went to bed.
JI - June 2, 2008
I prefer Jay Leno.
Fin - June 2, 2008
I've never found Leno to be funny.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Really?
I’ve felt the same way about Letterman. Never found his top 10 lists humorous.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Leno isn't bad
he he’s not even close to being in the same league as Conan or Letterman.
JI - June 2, 2008
What do you think of Jimmy Fallon taking Conan's place?
I am wondering how often he will crack up on the show.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Twice as often as his audience?
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Well played.
JI - June 2, 2008
ZING
Fin - June 2, 2008
I hate Jimmy Fallon.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
I dunno.
SNL and a talk show are two entirely different things. I didn’t mind has cracking up that much.
JI - June 2, 2008
I eargerly await the inevitable Conan/Stewart/Leno smackdown of 2012
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
He'll bomb
He won’t last the season, he’s that bad. Not quite Carson Daly bad, but he’s close.
marinator - June 2, 2008
I've heard Conan was pretty terrible in the beginning too.
JI - June 2, 2008
Conan lacked live audience experience
He was a writer for SNL and the Simpsons. It took him a while.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
I know.
I’m just saying, many people didn’t think that show would survive Andy Ritcher’s departure.
JI - June 2, 2008
I miss Richter.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I don't really remember him
it’s been too long.
JI - June 2, 2008
He was great
He’s actually the reason I despise the B-52s
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I remember him being hilarious
but it’s been… 10 years? I can’t remember the why.
JI - June 2, 2008
he was the perfect foil with Conan.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I stopped watching Conan after he left.
Not really because he left but just coincidentally.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Yea I heard he was going to be canned, but fortunately they were patient with him.
Fallon may have potential.
Fin - June 2, 2008
what has fallon done to prove he has potential?
besides that movie with queen latifah.
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
The movie with Drew Barrymore
Even though that wasn’t a comedy and he was a Red Sox fan.
Fin - June 2, 2008
The fact that he played a Red Sox fan immediately makes him suck that much more
marinator - June 2, 2008
ya a romantic comedy that wasn't even funny
or that romantic
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
To be fair
The movie was filmed before there was a RSN.
Fin - June 2, 2008
That movie has the worst ending of any movie ever made.
JI - June 2, 2008
The Revenge of the Sith and angsty Vader beg to differ
ningwers - June 2, 2008
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
MFAN - June 2, 2008
It's like Mr Lucas lured my childhood into his van and had his way with it
ningwers - June 2, 2008
this is why I cleverly avoid watching anything he's done recently
There are only three Star Wars or Indiana Jones movies.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I thought the new Indian Jones was a good movie.
...but I haven’t seen the other 3, so mabye if you aer a fan it’d piss you off.
JI - June 2, 2008
Meh
Too cheesy
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I expected cheesy.
It’a an action movie, by definition it’s going to be cheesy.
JI - June 2, 2008
Watch Raiders of the Lost Ark
then we can finish this discussion
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Raiders was pretty cheesy at parts, to be honest
That didn’t make it less awesome, but it was cheesy.
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
how have you not seen the original three
but have seen the fourth?
That’s like skipping Major League and watching Major League 3: Back to the minors.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Matthew
We’re old
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I have a birthday approaching
I hate those things.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I don't think the third one was that bad
Definately a cheesy straight to video movie, but still worth a watch if its on TBS at 2 in the morning.
Fin - June 2, 2008
When I go to the movies with peole I don't really care what we see
because if it’s bad I can mock it, and if it’s good well…
I have a lot of LFoJL in me.
JI - June 2, 2008
too... easy...
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Everyone loves a good gay joke.
JI - June 2, 2008
I mostly cannot watch movies with other people
because I don’t like to talk during them for the most part. There are exceptions though.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I get pissed when people want me to explain the plot.
If you can’t fill in the blanks you deserve to be left clueless.
I only like to talk during bad movies.
JI - June 2, 2008
bad movies or movies I've seen before
that’s it as far as talking.
I did really enjoy talking through the cinematic Les Miserables.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Kind of like during a bad game usually leads to a good game thread?
Fin - June 2, 2008
Yup.
JI - June 2, 2008
What's Indian Jones?
I saw Indiana Jones, it was cheesy I agree.
Fin - June 2, 2008
shit
JI - June 2, 2008
You lucky lucky bastard
ningwers - June 2, 2008
I'm very obstinate when it comes to these matters
People tried to get me to go to the new Star Wars and recently IJ4. I told them to piss off.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
I got dragged to all three SW movie and I hated all of them
I fell asleep at the first two, but I saw #3 in the afternoon and somehow manged to stay awake.
JI - June 2, 2008
It's too bad Brett's not here to defend it
ningwers - June 2, 2008
People I know keep saying this.
“I got dragged to…”
JUST SAY NO PEOPLE.
Do not support these movies or the people that go watch them.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
When I pick my battles
Star Wars is not something I’m going to fight for one way or the other.
Plus, many movies I get dragged to end up turning out ok.
JI - June 2, 2008
The new Star Wars sucked
But the new Indy wasn’t bad.
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
wrong wrong wrong
so terribly wrong
Little Big League may have had the best ending to any movie ever.
JI - June 2, 2008
I would disagree
I think the Natural did.
Fin - June 2, 2008
On Deadly Ground
Steven Segal’s environmental speech.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
I don't think anything can beat Johnson coming in from the bullpen and Griffey robbing a homer.
JI - June 2, 2008
It was the hollywood equivalent of 1995
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Yup.
The M’s even blew it and had to play a tiebreaker. Fuck Dave Magadan,
JI - June 2, 2008
That movie started RSN
DIE NOLLAF DIE NOLLAF DIE NOLLAF
marinator - June 2, 2008
LFOJL is that you?
Omerta - June 2, 2008
the only way fallon has a chance
is if tina fey writes the show for him
seahawksrule - June 2, 2008
He was alright
Jimmy Fallon’s sense of humor just plain sucks though, there’s no way he’ll be good.
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
I don't know
If he can channel the off-beat absurdity of early Letterman and Conan (on good nights) Late Night shows, maybe it’ll turn out alright.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
You know who deserves a shot more than him?
Norm McDonald.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Fuck yeah
Norm MacDonald is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen.
JI - June 2, 2008
and he just seems made for a talk show.
He was at his peak on Weekend update and at his worst trying to headline a scripted comedy.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Yeah
Every time I’ve seen him operate without a script he’s been quite entertaining. But he’s never going to get a show at NBC so…
JI - June 2, 2008
NM leaving SNL was the beginning of the end.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
*getting fired
JI - June 2, 2008
I'm just not sure he's likable enough to do a celebrity talkshow.
JI - June 2, 2008
He isn't
Too dry
marinator - June 2, 2008
I never heard the story behind this.
Do tell.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Basically, one of the NBC executives decided he "wasn't funny"
And demanded he be removed from the Weekend Update sketch. Which pissed Norm off, so he left the show.
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
lame. I was hoping it was more of an Olbermann - ESPN meltdown.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Nope, NBC suit was friends with OJ
Norm was fired because of too many OJ jokes. The exec didn’t understand the dry humor and was annoyed that the studio audience didn’t guffaw at everyone of his jokes—whoosh.
It’s funny because Norm was the most popular guy ever to do that segment since the originals.
JI - June 2, 2008
Well, that's closer.
Still not as good though.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Oh yeah that's right, it was because of the OJ jokes
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
I thought it was because of the OJ jokes
Which pissed of Lorne Michaels, who fired him.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
I wholeheartedly agree with this statement
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Unfortunately
Not enough people get Norm McDonald’s humor.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
He was quite popular on Weekend Update.
JI - June 2, 2008
What's he doing these days?
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Loads of blow
marinator - June 2, 2008
Although these days it's probably off of much more reasonably priced hookers
ningwers - June 2, 2008
Mostly radio and stand-up, I think
OlSalty - June 2, 2008
Conan ftw
Letterman/Leno have been made of cheese for years.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
Like the Moon?
Let’s discuss.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Its science.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
I still like Letterman.
JI - June 2, 2008
You don't believe in science?
Omerta - June 2, 2008
I belive in Letterman.
JI - June 2, 2008
I don't
We didn’t evolve. We were placed here by dinosaurs, who developed FTL drives and journeyed to Alpha Centauri.
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
I'd watch that movie
ningwers - June 2, 2008
But rocks.
Aaron Campeau - June 2, 2008
Long live the Cult of Craig Ferguson
Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008
Too English
marinator - June 2, 2008

Frosty Raptor - June 2, 2008

JI - June 2, 2008
I don't have time for shift when my heritage is being mis-represented.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
This has been the first episode of GTE in weeks.
JI - June 2, 2008
That's the mildest GTE in the history of GTE.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Still counts.
JI - June 2, 2008
Game thread discontempt
Robert - June 2, 2008
He needs to get up early
The early butthol catches the probe

You know what this whole furries meme has reminded me of
Island of misfit mascots
Fin - June 2, 2008
FAIL.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
FAIL.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
Oh dear.
BrianL - June 2, 2008
Yeah, that happen because I clicked "Post" but
it went to “posting” for a long time so I clicked “Preview” and then “Post” and I guess it posted it twice.
Coach Owens - June 2, 2008
This is my new favorite comment.
JI - June 2, 2008
I had that one ready to go
Graham MacAree - June 2, 2008
I had that ready to go to.
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2008

Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
Well that's too bad, because it's glorious.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
The meme?
Fin - June 2, 2008

Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
That sucks
It shows on mine.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Well this pic isn't so good, but it should get the point across.
Fin - June 2, 2008

Eyebrows - June 2, 2008

Fin - June 2, 2008

Fireball309 - June 2, 2008

Omerta - June 2, 2008

I thought Coach was just being Coach.
Fin - June 2, 2008

ningwers - June 2, 2008
Seriously?
Fin - June 2, 2008

Fireball309 - June 2, 2008

Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
I'm having a hard time replying properly tonight

Omerta - June 2, 2008
The Beer garden in SafeCo has been renamed the Bullpen Market?
Lame.
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Maybe they'll serve otterpops now
Omerta - June 2, 2008
is it supposed to be
“family friendly” now
Fireball309 - June 2, 2008
they're calling it "one of the hottest single scenes in Seattle"
I… just…
Matthew - June 2, 2008
Honestly I'm not a huge fan of it no matter what they call it
I go to the game to watch the game, pisses me off when my friends want to go out there, especially if we have quality seats.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
That's why you buy bleacher seats for that.
Fin - June 2, 2008
Well these days I wouldn't waste my money
the one time I did enjoy the beer garden was for a company function…the DRays shut out the M’s 1-0…Jamie Moyer pitched a complete game, but we were all so loaded that when we asked if we could go out to smoke and come back in the usher was like “the game’s over….” We looked out and sure enough there was no one on the field.
Omerta - June 2, 2008
