Richie looks pretty much done.
You don't say
I could give you some evidence if you would like some convincing, sir.
Yes, this one-strikeout-and-two-hard-hit-balls-in-three-plate-appearances-game is surely his death knell
I was looking more at last season and this season
Too bad the FO won't
Kneel before the DICKTATER!

Kal-El, how my dictate?
this guy looks scarier!

Angel's vs M's 6-03-08 # (25)

EPICALLY SMALLER
That's one HUGE dick!

/Robert

I hate dicky jokes.

Unless it invovles Felix and is in my mouth

So does this performance buy Dickey another start or two?
Given the injuries and how shitty Tits looks right now, I'd say yes.
Fernando Tatis? Endy Chavez?

Have we time traveled to play the ‘01 Expos? Boy some of these GMs sure like to stockpile old familiar talent and squeeze every last bit of life out of them.

Uh, yea. That's what I've been saying for months.

Jose Vidro, here we come.

3 bases there on the Beltre glove-throw. Hello, ump?

Only if the glove makes contact with it, isn't it?
Oooh...Batman trailer
Dark Knight is gonna be 10 levels of awesome.
Hells yes

and they got rid of Katie Holmes

Replacement level actress.
Hopefully the joker doesn't suck...

I have faith in Christian Bale though.

Can't wait to see what he'll do next

Too Soon?

Christian Bale is still alive
He'll be in Terry Gilliam's awesome movie

well half of it.

Hard to go wrong with a Batman movie

However, there was that one with Arnold as Mr. Freeze where he kept shooting off corny one-liners…or were they being clever by mocking his past movie career?

The Nostalgia Critic agrees

link

I love the Nostalgia Critic.
There's a billboard up

about a mile from my work.

OMFG

Beltre fucking THREW HIS GLOVE at the ball!!!!!!!

Bwahaa Beltre threw his glove.
Okay, I'm back.

I told you all the umpire was biased. I also told you that the Mets lineup sucks and would score at most one run. I also told you that Marlon Anderson is worse at defense than Rual Ibanez. Did anyone listen? No.

Sometimes

we can get wrapped up too much in our own suck, unable to see others…suck.

Marlon Anderson is not worse at defense than Raul Ibanez
Raul Ibanez's star of suck just shines brighter because he plays more.

But Marlon Anderson is a starting corner outfielder enough for his defensive star of suck to shine brighter because he can’t hit, either.

None of the players in our lineup 4-9 can hit. Without Beltran, it’s 3-9. Castillo is questionable. Really, it’s Reyes and a team full of scrubs. This team would be under .500 in a full AA season. $140 fucking million dollars.

Trust me, Raul is worse.

We’ll take Wright from you, after all I see you failed to mention him as one of the good players.

He's not playing.
I figured you meant lineup as in normal starters, not today's specific lineup.
HAHAHA Beltre
I'm going to be so incredibly sad when you leave us, Beltre.
Beltre is fucking awesome
That's a 3 base error in little league.
I think it's worth 3 bases in the bigs as well.
So why didn't the guy get 3 bases?
Glove has to make contact with the ball
Glove didn't touch the ball.
And in the major leagues too.

Will someone tell me what happened with Beltran and Runge, and why Runge (whom I’m assuming is on the wrong) is to blame?

God, the Mets suck so much. Here is Robinson Cancel pinch-hitting. He doesn’t belong in AA, let alone the major leagues.

Fire Omar Minaya now.

Baltran was complaining about a called strike call, Runge got in his face about it

Chaos/hilarity ensues

Wait, RUNGE got in BELTRAN's face?
I think Beltran may have said a bad word to him
Got here too late for the other thread but why did Beltran get tossed?
I can think of a few reasons
Did Dickey throw him some chin music?
Real answer: Home plate umpire is a pussy

Our answer: KHARMIC REVENGE FOR INJURING OUR GOD!

One of these days major league baseball is going to bust our asses for these unauthorized gifs.
Jeff enabled me.
Someone needs to go back into the archives and recreate the VIDRO SCORES gif.
I like it this way

it’s low quality as an homage.

I thought it was good.
I forgot that we have a new one now
I've come so far.

I don't even know how you make something that bad
No video.
I just realized the was a mouse pointer in LawnDart

So I made LawnDart 2.0

sidebar that motheerfucka

Link me fag
WHOA THERE

SIDEBAR NOW!
On it
Everyone like this a lot better than they did this afternoon.
And done
This gif is like Barry Bonds 2004's bat combined with Ozzie Smith 1982's defense.
Don't make me post the worst .gif of all time
That player will win you so many games in baseball mogul.
I'd like to see them try
Game Day says "on field delay" for the argument.

Next time I get in an argument with the GF it will be an “in car delay” or “in house delay”

I love you Beltre
Holy shit who is this fat fuck at the plate?
His name is Robinson Cancel. Imagine Robinson Cano's bizarro NY twin, except fatter and worse.
I heart Dickey.
I can't get enough of this hot Dickey
That's what she said.
Talk about belaboring the point.
That's what she said.
That's what she said.
I had that ready to go to.
God dammit Kenji
So we're fielding a starting lineup that has Ballgame, Kenji, Sexson, and Dickey in the batting order

And we’re up 6-0.

Somebody explain this.

National League
I got nothing.
The Mets are fielding a lineup that has Castillo, Delgado, Nixon, Chavez, Tatis, Schneider and Perez in the batting order.
I'm telling you, it's Omar Minaya's veteran Expos buddies club.
I really think it's mostly Perez.

He’s turned back into the Pirates pumpkin he used to be.

New manager knows how to get veterans to play with more heart
Make that 9-0.
And just to recap

Felix still has more extra base hits than WFB.

AP article just popped up on RSS

saying that Felix is in a walking boot and is eyeing a quick return.

Boot is a precautionary measure, don't look into it.
Dickey weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
DICKEY!!!!

THE DICKTATER STRIKES AGAIN!!!

*Dicktator
No, DickTATER
No, DickTATOR.
That doesn't make sense
It's a potato

But instead of eyes it has dicks.

I makes sense in my head, maybe I’m defective

Wow that was so gritty.
The pitchers hit better than our batters

How sad.

These Mets announcers are a big sack of nag
Ron Darling should be genocided.
They are the best in the game.

But I would fucking shoot myself if I HAD to watch every inning of every Mets game. You can pretty much leave the room for two innings if the top of the lineup fails to get on.

Everybody thinks their announcers are the best in the game

they’re all wrong except San Diego.

San Diego's announers are awesome to the 10th degree.
Announcers, even.

I think my C key is sticking.

Gary Cohen is the best.

And anyone who says otherwise is a stupidhead.

Uhh...

Stupid, annoying jock voice. No thanks.

All Americans sound the same anyway
Wizzle wozzle
I just said that to piss you off by the way.

I want you to feel some of my pain. And don’t give me that “I’m a Mariners’ fan” bit. No one is expecting them to do anything now. People still expect the Mets to do well and the Mets will make disastrous moves in a vain effort to buy success.

And while the Mariners are poised for a change-in-direction in terms of operations management, that won’t happen with the Mets for a decade, at least.

After yesterday I won't be capable of being pissed off again for months

I am sorry that you are better than us

Dodgers
Vin Scully

I love listening to him ramble about tangentially related material for 3 hours.

Sure, if you take away everyone except Vasgersian
I'd kind of like to listen to the other team's announcers for once.

I suppose it’d get tiresome after awhile and I got nothing against Sims/Niehaus but it would be nice to listen to another perspective for a time.

Sims is awesome.
I rec instead of +1ing.
Let's just forfeit the DH
I think you have to be the home team to do that
but only if Raul Ibanez gets a unicorn to ride around on
WTF

Gameday skipped Dickey’s at bat.

I just noticed that

It says Kenji K, Willie walk and now Ichiro is up.

And now

it eat Ichiro’s AB and gives me Dickey’s in return.

looks like they fixed it
That's what? Four of our pitchers in the starting rotation with hits?
Mets announcers hate everything not-Mets
And everything Mets
East Coast City Team announcers hate

everything non East Coast City?

I don't see this at all.

Unlike other announcers, they don’t say “we” and call players by their first names and fail to show enthusiasm for other teams’ good plays. In fact, Keith Hernandez is always rooting for the other team.

"Who does this guy think he is?"

“I’m Keith Hernandez!”

Dickey for DH!
So I just realized we need a Jim Riggleman towel
Damn, we have to do it again don't we?
Fuck

give me a few hours.

ICHIRO WOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Holy blowout batman!
STILL EARLY!
What did you expect

You’re playing the METS!!!

They're playing the MARINERS!!!
Mets <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Mariners
Ichiro! Ichiro! Ichiro!
I can't wait until Omar Minaya gets fired.

Of course, I know Bill Bavasi or Wayne Krivsky is next in line.

I can't wait to talk to my Mets fan friend about this
Stop saying Aflac please
What did I just tell you
Time for some stabbies methinks
Bring Felix in to pinch hit!
This umpire likes to talk to the players.

What up with that?

He's the Butthol of umps and wants attention.
Needy little bastard.
This is fun.

Can we haz yesterday’s result plz?

Did that fat kid in the crowd have a flesh eating disease?
Yeah

He eats too much flesh, hence he’s fat.

Uhhhhh.

Slow torture. Fucking Gary Cohen and Keith Hernandez are talking about the Aflac duck and the distinction between a handkerchief and a kerchief.

One has hand in it
Yes.

Gary stressed than when taken off the hand and put on the head, it becomes a kerchief.

Can't put anything past Gary
RAUUUUUUUUUUUUL!
MARINERS ACQUIRE NELSON PAYANO
STATS

HERE

Hey look he's bad
Better than the last time we traded with Atlanta.
It's close
For who? What is this supposed to be, a trade?
Greg Norton
Ah, ok

Thanks

Surprise Dickey time!
You know what time it is!?

TIME FOR THE HIGH FIVE’N WHITE GUYS!

I miss Almost Live.
We all do, Omerta.

We all do.

This is just the game to cure last night.
YIPPEEEEEEEE!
Hahaha what Adrian
We're winning 9-0.

What?

So the Mets are really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really bad.

And I prefer Dan Wilson to Blowers even if he does have the least energetic voice ever.

Dan's growing on me
Fucking choir boy.
Hobby?
Only when I'm not fucking everything.
WOOOOOOOOOOO BELTRE LUCK!

Booooo Richie.

Bases-loaded for Sexson.

Quick, pinch-hit Felix.

Are we using up all of our baseball goodwill

in one game? Everything has gone right.

We need to burn it quickly to get back on track for Strassburg
I love that Beltre's twatted the ball twice for outs and gets a hit on a weak ground ball
Wow that old dude had the worst hat ever.
NOOOOO

I MISSED SCREENSHOTTING THE BIG GAY METS HAT

That thing was epic.
That's what I get for actually cooking something.
Huzzah for the big Dick!

He never pitches well when i watch.

WOOOO FUNK SAC FLY!
Heh

Another Richie Funk Sac-Fly.

Wow. Hit hard again
HOLY CRAP I'M UNBANNED FROM USSM
I imagine that's an accident
I do too
Post like it's 1699.
Corco Cage?
and the comments are gone

I assumed it was a function of me donating money

Haha suck it Omar.
Oh Richie you are the living end
We should make Adam Kennedy our firstbaseman.
44th first pitch of the inning?

What?

You're kidding, really?
Leave it to Betancourt
The ump kinda sounds like the Aflac duck.
Wow do they ever sound embarrassed about losing to us
I love the looks of disgust as they pan the crowd too

These last two games have been oh so sweet.

Except for that one thing
Well yeah but he'll be fine.
As they should be.

FIRE. OMAR. NOW.

Do you have a petition to sign like that Nats fan did?
Petitions are stupid.

I blog instead.

It doesn't work
Petitions or blogging?
Blogging

We are the opposite of the communist octopus

Care to elucidate?
I didn't think I had to
As opposed to having tentacles on everything, we have no hold on anything?

I have no faith in people to seek out and understand the superior argument. What do I care whether they sign a damn petition? I just want to share my thoughts with like-minded people.

I forgot what we're talking about

Petitions are stupid too.

They should be, right?
I was just making an observation
10-0? What?
I've been waiting all inning for the end of the inning

to see whether the Shea Stadium fans would erupt in a sarcastic cheer or an overwhelming boo.

God bless YouTube.

I’ve missed Almost Live so much.

STRASSSSSSSSBURRRGGG NOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo
There will be other games.
We will only be one game ahead of the Strasburg race after today

It’s not looking good.

STAB
STAB backwards is BATS
Which is nearly BAST

SBAT isn't a word
But SBAT backwards is TABS.
And now we're right back to cats
I didn't see the connection
Conclusion: Jeff likes cats
Q.E.D.
Proof fails
Obligatory

To the penalty box!
I imagine penalty boxing you for abusing the penalty box would go badly for me
Quite
Don't you have protection against this?
You'd think so
Vote JI/R for a safer tomorrow.

Robert couldn't even defend himself from soccer balls
This is controlled by buttons.
Don't trust the JI/R clown car

You are misrepresen.... bwhahahahahaha
The Defiant kicked ass.
I would torch a star destroyer.
I'm looking forward to your typos manifesting themselves as accidentally pressing the self-destruct button
I would be more owrried about accidentally torpedoing the sun.
Just don't load your armory with cobalt devices and you'll be fine.
Plus you need two hand prints and voice activation.
Like that'd stop you
This is why Wprf is first officer.
You'd lock yourself out from the main computer

(Yes, I just thought of that).

I only do that on purpose
That's why we have Data(Fairy) around to get you back in.
I wanna see the results.
I am going to strip you of your recs
You can never kill my spirit.
\kill_spirit [ji]

I can't believe you have made an Edmonds' concussion gif.
That .gif would be too long due to volume
It was on play against the White Sox in 2006.

I’m serious.

To the penalty box!
I love that picture on the left

And I love that I got rec’d for it.

Well this is getting out of hand
The next one's a double-minor!
Why me!?!

Why not Coach/Butthol?

This is more fun for me
Also I only recently discovered the awesomeness of the penalty box
I'm praying it becomes a dead meme
I don't kill memes
Maybe Gomez/Graham/Matthew/Devin will
p.s. how can I make it stop
Then they will visit the penalty box
I know better than to side against Jeff
Never betray my trust
I promise I will only betray your trust if it's for a sufficiently hilarious occasion
I fear for the fate of my next drunk email
Hey dude all I say...
Statute of limitations
I just re-read this

It could’ve been better.

I'm ass-kissing whoever is in charge.
You need an on screen graphic.
Psshhhh whatever penalty box is my crib now

It’s off the chain

(I know it’s coming)

Wr9iong
Damn
If the NHL has taught me anything penalties are a more effective deterrent when completely random
As I've explained before, I'm always expecting it
You really were an SS officer.
How would Coach/butthol not be fun?
STABBITY-STAB-STAB!!!
Funny Reyes decides to switch sides.
Nice play, Adrian.
Holy Shit

Vargas threw 45 pitches? Really?

PAN AWAY PAN AWAY FROM FATTY!
Oh, be nice.
Why did that man have his arm around a dewgong?
Try 'dugong'
Oops, one is a pokemon

thanks google

What the hell

Did I miss

Hell freezing over, the seas boiling, the headless horsemen.

You know, Armageddon.

Richie hit two grand slams and a two run double.
Him?
Not even close.

Although that tall bastard does have two RBI’s on two sac-fly’s.

I love Dickey again

More Dickey please

That was a ball.

Heh, Mets are getting hosed.

Every. fucking. day.
I'm okay with it
Still hasn't made up for Reilly
Works for me.
You're done Carlos.
Long live the Dicktator.
Dick! Dick! Dick!

Angel's vs M's 6-03-08 # (25)

I love it when the tam plays the "aw fuck it" lineup

and they win anyway.

How is this the aw fuck it lineup?
Have you not seen our players.
Also works for the other game I am watching.
Yeah, but by that logic, every one of our lineups is an 'aw fuck it' lineup.
We're stupid.
Argument OVER

well played

We should leave Dickey in to save the bullpen...

wait on, he is the bullpen…...he can be his own bullpen…...he can get the win and the hold…

So where the hell have you been all season, Kenji?
Swimming in his money bin.
Wasn't the consensus that he was merely mired

in a season long slump which he was capable of busting out of at any point?

Kenji seems to have found his stroke

Please be our full time DH until we find a better option next season.

Oh wait you’re here for another 3 years. Crap.

Just so everyone knows, Felix still has more XBH than Willie.
So does Robert.
Now that's damning.
So *that's* what it looks like to have a compotent left fielder.
I am unfamiliar with the com- prefix
Imagine if Raul was our DH, and Reed was our LF...

I know it’s hard…but you can do it!

whooosh.
IT COULD HAPPEN

maybe…possibly…aw fuck

That's what she said!
I am unfamiliar with it being added to 'potent', as well
I would sell my soul for a Dickey Home Run
REED!

ICHIRO FINALLY GETS SOME INNINGS OFF!

Wow whats got into the M's today?

I guess Perez was a great big ball of suck today.

HAVEN'T YOU BEEN LISTENING?

Damn you all.

My whole purpose here is to educate you that it is the Mets sucking, and not the Mariners ruling, that has brought about the events of the day. Why won’ t you listen? Has the whole world gone CRAZY?

/pulls piece out on the lane

We kinda know that the Mariners don't rule
It's like this.

2 out of 3 players on the Mets are Willie Bloomquist.

I knew you guys were struggling, but you have to be terrible to make the Mariners look

good for any stretch this season. I will wear a Mets hat to our next softball meet-up in honor of your suckage.

Thanks.

In the offseason I kept trying to compare the Mets’ 88-win season and likely failure to properly assess their talent with the Mariners’ 88-win season and likely failure to properly assess their talent. I wrote that acquiring Santana was not a mistake akin to acquiring Bedard, but it was still short-term thinking that would cost the Mets. Did anyone listen? They were like, “The Mariners? Don’t they play in Vancouver or something? Who the fuck cares?”

You have bad readers
Today would be a wonderful time for a smug "I told you so" post or something.
I've been making them all year long.
Make today's an extra special "I told you so"
As far as crazy goes you must have missed game thread part 4 yesterday
Ha.

I’m done after three game threads.

I wont be giving you a fiddle cat tonight

But you guys certainly deserve it. Have a good one.

What happened to your drug addiction?
thats what im going to right now
Oh ok nvm then

Hope everything turns out OK for you.

I guess Minaya could drag another former Expo out of exile to replace Perez.
His name is Tony Armas Jr.

And I would bet lots of money that the next pitcher called up will be he and not Carlos Muniz, the most deserving (but alas, under 30 and not an Expos veteran).

Dickey's getting a lot of groundouts today.

I approve.

HAHAHAHAHA FOUL BALL!
I guess now we find out if Dickey really does have that rubber arm.
Is that ice cream truck music coming from my tv or outside?
Oh Noes! Washburn!
Washburn warming up.;
If anyone can give up 10 runs, it's him
Reed would have had that
An average defender catches that...
And yet, Raul 'glove on a stick' Ibanez fails to make the play.
NO TATIS! NO TATIS! NO TATIS!
Oh Adrian I love that deke you do.
"RAUL CHARGING"

Only the thing Raul “charges” is stuff to his credit card.

He could be a-chargin' his laser.

SHOOP DA WHOOP!

SEVENTEEN TIMES SMALLER
i put width 300 in there i swear
Next time put it right
DAMMIT i put width 300
What was up with that face Kenji just made to Dickey?
WOOOOOOOOO DICKEY!
According to Color Guy, the fans are at Shea to observe the team
What!? Really!?
His name is Keith Hernandez.

Learn it. Know it.

He must be your Hendu.
Wash did increase what little trade value he has in his last start.
Wow, bases loaded and our only good hitter still left in the lineup is up!

...And, that was NOT a strike.

Great.

Runge is their Reilly?
The only umpire who is worse on the Mets is Angel Hernandez,

and he’s just generally horrible. Runge specifically hates the Mets. Ask any serious Mets fan which umpire hates the Mets, and he’ll tell you.

Angel Hernandez is awful.
It's like looking in an offense mirror.
AK's sister would have put a better swing on that
DICKEY COCK PUNCH!

STAB
M! L! B! DOT! T! V!
Aaron Harang:

(Off-screen) You can do it, Aaron. Just give it a shot.

(Aaron) Ok, here goes. Llllive.

(O-S) Go on.

(A) Llllive. And. on. demand.

(A) YAY!

(Victor Martinez) Hi! Dis is Victor Martinez (gay hand thing)

hay is is vitor artinez
Wow you guys have it down.

Keep watching.
Keep watching.
Keep watching.
KEEP WATCHING!

There's video in the fanshots.
When people ask me why I still watch the Mariners on MLB.tv I know exactly who to blame
Scott Shields?

John Maine?
Ken Griffey, Jr.?

If Griffey comes on my MLB.tv I will stop watching
Hay is is vitor artinez.
mine was in time with vitor
117 pitches? Pfft, he should of been able to throw 150+
Oh so close Loafie...so close.
Holy jesus that was hammered
seriously, the other week the M's were talking about having Felix got 120-130 pitches

so why wouldn’t they have a knuckleball pitcher with a 10 run lead go 130-140 pitches?

You don't understand, Felix is a WORKHORSE

Normal physical laws do not apply to him.

I got excited because I thought that was gone before it hooked. =(
So did Sims.
Hey y'all, my dad just texted me to tell me some kind of Mariner Miracle is happening.
We're using up all our runs for the rest of the week
Worth it.
You're parents text?
Your.
You're parent's text?
Belonging to you.
We just had a duel through texts over who has suffered the most this season.
Well... you frequent here...
Was it the acquisition of Nelson Payano?
And another one nearly got out.
More like homosexual sox

am I right?

Scott Schoeneweis seems good
Way to spell.

And don’t be fooled. Look at his splits.

Was sarcasm

I love that 5.96 tRA though

tRA?

You nerds, I can’t keep up. I just masted DIPS, and now “tra”?

Just kidding, I get it.

Don't worry it's some nonsense Graham made up

and refuses to show his sources.

What’s next? P.H.A.?

Another guy I thought was out of baseball

I guess we’ll see Andres Gallaraga pinch hit this next inning.

You lie.
He's pushing 50 and battling cancer.

Still, he could probably luck out and crush one.

Yea, 3 year, $10MM+ year contract.

My favorite part of this game is that even you guys recognize that Runge is an ass, even when the person getting fucked by him was Beltran, who was dead to you yesterday.

By the way, Jerry Manuel now has been ejected more times as manager than Willie Randolph in his entire time with the Mets. Not including earlier this year when the umpires overruled a Delgado home run, when Manuel, not Randolph was ejected.

Runge's an ass, but it was funny
I keep getting excited on these.

I have like baseball blueballs right now. D=

This creeps me out.
This is more frightening.
Oh dear.
Perhaps he is being crucified upside down?
it was creepier before when it was animated and i saved it wrong
Someone good at this type of thing

Give him red eyes, horns, and a pointed tail

I find this to be inexplicably hilarious.
Please don't do that.
It lurks in the corners
And Richie is still a terrible defender.
Marlon Anderson is good haha john u r gay now
Did Bavasi just get fired?
Old news is awesome!
Where have you been?
Our blogger just announced it like it was breaking news
Jesus you guys are late.
It's true.

Greg Vaughn just got released from the Tampa Bay Devil Rays too. Might want to pass that along.

When Bavasi got fired there were like 10,000 comments about it in 20 minutes

I guess we can’t expect everyone else to be so excited.

The Internet is a big place.

There are many sources of news and information.

By the way, I recommend everyone check out John Turturro’s mid-nineties infomercial for Lycos.

You might want to check to see if your blog is pregnant.
what is up with all the orange bars in the stands?
Holy Shit Bloomquist.
OH GRITMASTER
Wow, that was a nice catch
Ultimate Gritty
Great catch Boom-Boom!
Not white enough, didn't leave feet
So, that was pretty awesome.
And with that catch, Willie Fucking Ballgame becomes the starting CF.
Suddenly, that wasn't quite so awesome.
Just remember, you can't spell scrappy without crappy.
Dave Niehaus borrowed a hate from Sims.
A hate?
So that's where it went
Dammit JI.

You keep your diseases to yourself.

But I have love to give!
How is that transmitted anyways?
Through love.
You are so generous.
Use protection next time, dammit.
It's less special that way.
That's what she said?
A-Rod:

(swaying side to side)

M-L-B-dot-tee-vee

HEY!

WHY DOES HE ALWAYS SWAY

ALWAYS WITH THE SWAYING

Boy's got rhythm.
He likes junior high dances.

And that explains his preference for large, manly women.

Sex appeal.

So he believes.

HE DOES IT FOR JEET
also relevant to jeet.

See JI, this is how it happens.
Jeet?

no thx

Just the flow chart part.
We don't have five lovely ladies.
BECAUSE SWAY IS UNCLUTCH AND BEING UNCLUTCH IS WHAT CHOKEROD DOES!
[GayRod]
Shut up about the fans there will be no sign
We need to score 2 runs here then give up 13 in the bottom half
I would celebrate this
That would be awesome.
I root for it once we got to 7.
I will eat my computer.

No way that happens once if the bottom half is played a million times.

I don't think this is true
Theoretically.
And not just with an average lineup.

With this putrid lineup.

None of Cairo's hits leave the IF.
Whoa, I just check in and Dickey throws 7 scoreless?

Felix/Bedard/Morrow/Hyphen/Dickey for ‘09. Accept no substitutes.

What if Aumont becomes suddenly major league ready? Could I accept a substitute then?
Pedro Feliciano looks most Jersey
What the rusty fuck?
Is that Richie's first extra base hit since changing his stance?
Big day for Richie

wonder if Minaya will pick him up when we cut him loose

Why would we cut him

He’s coming around…

ug

h?

Actually I don’t know if there is a proper spelling for that word.

Trade for Delgado!
Richie XBH!
What the hell.

Does this postpone Sexson’s departure?

Stone says the M's are auditioning him for takers

If nobody bites, he gets cut before Monday.

If he shows up he gets paid.
I think the idea is to swallow his salary

And hope for some kind of prospect in return

Meaning, at a real job you'd just quit and sleep in.
YAY

Please take him Omar.

If we get a C level prospect for him I'm going to laugh hysterically.
Richie XBH!?

That’s gotta be embarassing for the Mets.

Welcome to the Mets, Richie.

You can wear whatever number you please.

Enjoy
Thanks.

I won’t.

DONT JUST LOOK AT IT, EAT IT.
Well will you look at that.
It's M's Miracle Week.
We will pay dearly for this.
Well, at least some things never change.
What the hell is going on here!?
Yes more about your dog
My dog is a sweetie

She runs into trees to try to knock fruit down to eat. Unfortunately she hasn’t learned that pine cones are inedible

That sounds like Animal Crossing
Which is an awesome game. Therefore, Graham's dog is awesome.
So Bloomquist in center, Reed in right?
Mariners Baseball: What the fuck!?
I wonder if we can trade WFB at the deadline
Well now that he's a legit CF....
This is more of a fluke than the Grand Slam.
That's more like it.
They have been talking about Angie the dog non-stop since the start of the inning
MARK LOWE!
Lowe has a professional stance
Come on Mark!
GIVE ME CLEMENT NOW
NO SERIOUSLY CLEMENT
Lowe in.

Inning over.

Holy cow that dude was old!
Yeah gotta at least swing the bat. Jeez Lowe.
Did Sims just call Tatis a war veteran?
Lowe's looking good
I feel some penalty box time is forthcoming
Ohh, and rec'd
Also, I fail at replying
Tatis... Schneider... kill me now.
Why am I still here?
We do awesome game threads
You have come to love Lookout Landing.
Not much action at the Mets site?
You are all correct.

I also would have accepted “masochist.”

I spiced things up with the Beltran gif.
For the influx of gifs

that is about to come.

NO TATIS! NO TATIS! NO TATIS!
That high school girl in the front row needs to re-think those ear rings.
Hgih school girl and think really don't belong in the same sentence
I think about high school girls
SUBTHREAD CLOSED
The thing about high school girls?

They all look like downs patients?
Sad but true.
Lopez caving under pressure of this close contest.
WHEEEE SHUTOUT!
Is an 11-run lead safe with Lowe?
Did that really just happen?
Biggest win since 2003
[deleted, dead meme]
WE DID IT LFOJL IS BACK
That wasn't meant to be lipstick I just had to make your face brighter to match the kid's neck
I 100% believe this
I swear I tried to change it back but I suck at photoshop
The picture was meant to flatter you
I was flattered but trigger-happy
The hell with it, you're back in the ROY running
Dammit...
This is a challenge
I'm going to have to brush up on my photoshop.
I've found the trick is to be very bad at it and get banned alot
The photoshop rookie spot is taken

use your words

You mean I have to resort to actual wit?

It’s going to be a long season.

Puns are okay
They don't have to be LFoJL bad, do they?
The correct term is "puntastic!"
And I thought I had the market cornered on that as well
You only have the market cornered on awful ones
There's such thing as non-awful puns?
Some of them can be Willie good
You remind me of a guy at my work. His name is Hugh.

That Hugh sure is a colorful guy

You just got Ichirolled
I'm Green with envy

oh wait that one sucks

You should proof-Reed your comments.
You guys should hit the Rhodes until you can come up with some decent puns
This subthread is making me physically ill.
Why? Are bad puns one of your pet Peavys?
Worse than Felix with a twisted Ankiel.
I saw him Saunders off the field

It was terrible

I don't even know what this is supposed to mean.
I think I shall attempt to corner the market on ass-kissing.
You are a shoo-in
*Shin soo choo-in
Every time you make one of these godawful puns God kicks a puppy.

You bastard.

I think this one was my best work
Woooo!

I bow before my wonderful overlords!

I can't wait for the home stretch
*cantu
I would respond but I am Laffeying uncontrollably
You should call Ford help
This is the worst one yet
It is Fahey bad.
(someone mention a birthday party)
My 21st birthday party a month ago was so awesome.
I hope somebody sent you Accardo
I hope it was nice and Glaussy.
I am Repkommending this comment.
Victorino is JI's!
He's out of our League
Yeah, it was really well Dunn.
It's like he was Bourn superior
I finally Winninghan one.
Now I'm going to Cancel your account
Are you serious?

Hey, stop giving him so much Grieve.
Yeah no need to get so Greinke about it.
Not my fault JI is a Giese idiot
It's a Hundleying experence.
1 free rec to the poster with the most hilarious Bocock pun.
One time I had to call for help after sitting Barajas on the office copier
Did you ever Hrbek from your boss on that one?
Quite the Contreras

He Pierzynski through the window and decided never to speak Thome again.

I hope he wouldn't want you to Dye.
Flagged for repeat
Yeah, that one's been done beForeman
Similtainous post.
All I have to say to you is:

Will Yount Maris me?

How Wood that work?
We could Goetz to California
Are you going to eLopez?
I could get a job as a Schumaker.
They don't make too much money, to be careful to prevent Concepcion.

I would say not funny ezxcept that I am laughing my ass off.
You'd have to have bats in the Pelfrey to run of and elope!
It took me a while to understandridge this one
All my friends drive a Loaiza
Youkilis lost me there
Dye
Well that was Biggio of you
You Jenksed him.
No need to get in such a Hough.
Aubrey Huff too easy?
Quit Blakeing the rules
Why Kent I?
Man, this whole subthread has me laughing so hard I fell over. I think my Niehaus given out.
Like anybody Carrolls
Stop being such an Asdrubal
You reap what you Sowers
You see that picketture of you with Broussard has gotten 7 recs

I sense a Mutisny

Do you want to Ventura a guess on when it will start?
This is the Wuertz comment of all time
I disagree, it Easley has to be something by Butthol or Coach
Aurilia?
FLAG
Damn
Aurilia? I’m sure somebody Cain do worse
Maybe one of the Utah Miners
If pretty sure they Cano.
Is it just me or is Angie Mentink a little Manush?
He's just feeling Tiffee
I sense a return to the penalty box in ten minutes Ozuna
I'd like to have his head on my Mantle.
You will make him Parrish.
When I get him in my Cla, I'll be quite Meredith.
Jeez, that's Ruthless.
Well good Eveland gentlemen

I’m Finnished for tonight

Yeah, I've hot the Wahle too.
Casilla
I just got this. I am slow.
Good God it's almost Bonine o'clock
Even though its still Earley, I'm running out of puns
You'll never be a Wynner with that attitude.
You need your rest. Don't want to be in a Fogg tomorrow!
Aww

You guys getting Tuckered out?

There's a town in Nevada with 10 cops and 20 prostitutes.

Which is a two to one Horacio. This means when you are finished with one, you can Weaver by the curb and still not get Loney. Of course, you may feel like a Putz afterwards so give her a Boone of a nice tip, don’t wear too much Colon and she won’t flip you the Byrd.

You're a Raben lunatic.
this subthreaad

has been my Maine source of entertainment for awhile

August and September will be magical.
You guys are terrible people
I hope we didn't make you Madritsch
You wouldn't like him when he's Avery.
That's why I picked up photoshop!
gifs have turned me into vintage Jason Giambi
You should make gifs with spelling errors
What do you think all the cursors are for?
5 bans do make a right!
Mariners are dominate.

I feel strange.

Not as strange as your grammar
Purpose is not always easily conveyed on the internets.
Welcome to Bizarro World.
Fiddle cat time?

Let me know when

YOU WIN

Mariners Win A SHUT OUT!

Never leave us.
Woooooooooooooooo go M's!
Congrats DICKEY!
Okay, was fun, see you guys tomorrow.
Please win this time
The good news is you're facing Beluga Tits tomorrow.
Well.. there's always...

BTW, Your team is hurting our business.

We busted out own slump.
Ryan Franklin is a bad pticher.
He's not a great pitcher, either.
Since you're all making puns

I just thought I should let you know that mlb.com made a Dickey pun, but they didn’t want to offend anyone while doing it: “Mariners Dic-tate easy win over Mets”

http://mlb.mlb.com/news/gameday_recap.jsp?ymd=20080624&content_id=2993862&vkey=recap&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb

You couldn’t even say Dicktate, mlb.com? Really?

I used the "dictate" pun at the beginning of the thread

I’m surprised nobody caught on…

GRITTY ENGLISHMAN AT SHEA INSPIRES M'S TO FAMOUS VICTORY.
STOP WINNING YOU COWARDS!!!
I know; isn't it Bazardo?
flag'd for 2x usage
Yeah, stop being such a Jeter.
When was it used before?
*in this thread
nvm

that was BRAZOBANNED

Wow, guess you'll have to eat some Crowe.
I'm glad Felix didn't break his Ankiel yesterday.
FLAGGED FLAGGED FLAGGED
That would have been a new Lowe.

I know we’re all Edgar for Strasburg, but there’s no need to try that hard. One player, Moyer less won’t make any difference.

Gooden God all these puns have thrown me for a Looper
This thread contains a massive col-Lidge-ion of terrible puns
That's what Cey said
Whoa, Backe up. Why would Cey say that?
lol Ugueth r gay now
Could this be any Moore bad?

I feel like I’m Saundering down an endless Halman and all it has are puns! Hopefully toMorrow we won’t Triufel so badly with all these Lowe blows.

Hulett the dogs out?!

Any more of these and I'm going to Qualls the police
We can't stop.

It’s like there’s something forcing us and we Hafner keep doing this.

I'd award this the Silva medal

but it’s terrible so instead it’s a Black mark on your record

Faggot I'm the Ortmeier of puns
I'm sure there are Manny more of these out there

so I can’t imagine you’d Riske the sanctity of this thread like that

Risk the sanctity of a thread?

Why, Iannetta!

I heard the police are driving new cars now

do you know if they are Suzukis or Fords?

If you do know, I hope you'd have the Kurt-esy to tell me
Doesn't work, are words
Flagged because I'm in a Huff that you didn't have a pun in the Prior comment
Oh, stop being such a Crabbe.
Only if you'll stop being such a Goyle

or else you might Malfoyle my plans!

Kosuke Dickey you big Dykstra.
Albus yo ass if you keep being a jerk on the internetz!
I'm sorry, that was Overbay the line.

To make it Upton you, why don’t I buy you a Piazza Pie?

Willits have extra cheese?
Ervin I knew that was a Radhamestake
It's the only comment in this subthread that is Lackeyng in creativity
My Napoligies
I accept. I wouldn't want you to get Escobarred from this site
That happened once on the old site

Aybarrowed Devin’s login

Did you have to Hunter around for that or did you find it right away?
That sucks

it must have been like someone kicking you in the Kotchman

Did you Juander what happened or just go fix it quickly?
Why are we repeating them?
Flagged because I'm in a Huff that you didn't have a pun in the Prior comment
So I didn't use a pun. It hapPence.
Stop being such an Infante about it or I'll crush you to within an Inge of your life
You don't Seay?

Bring it – I’ll spike you with my Clete clear across the Thames river.

When I'm done with you, you'll have to crawford help.
But really, I'm just kidding. Just Gibbons you a hard time.
I'm Howelling with laughter
Yes, this could brighten up even the most Grimsley day.

It’s a bright ray of Sonnanstine.

It's like looking directly at DeJesus
Alas, my kitchen Beckhams. I must take my leave
On an otherwise Cloudey day.
I will deftly Ward off your attacks

and then Marshall my troops to destroy you with 100lb halberds and no trucks

Hey, settle Downs.

He’s just trying to push your Boutons.

Maybin I don't like my buttons to be pressed
Dontrelle on me. It was all in good fun.
Some of these puns belong in the Dempster
I hate this comment. I wish we could Burnett
Don't think you can Riggleman off the Houk for that one.
Yeah, some of them aren't Werth a Darnell Coles it's hard to stay inSpiered.
It would be fun to drive around the new lunar Verlander
It's occurred to me that my navigation system isn't working

perhaps I need a new JI-roscope

What do we Javier?

A Vidalation?

Felix is our Maine attraction, the only Reyes of hope we have for this moribound franchise

He proved that he has the Wright stuff when he Beltraned that GS. The only way it could have Endyed better is if he had Wagnered his finger at Santana while rounding the bases. He even showed how Wise he is by not trying to pitch through his injury. Now if only they would Pelfrey his friend Wlad it would Cancel or Nixon most of the stupid the M’s have done. Now only if he would go to Church.

I’ve used so many of their players in this, I feel like I’ve Mets them all! Much too Easley.
