un during boring
err *In
Still not making sense.
Raben was in this thread first
I'm already sick of htis meme.
This, dammit.
LFoJL: Meme killer
I'm trying to kill them all at once
PERFECT Timing
Raben has back spasms, does not have lupus, has sarcoidosis, is late, that's bad.
colon sucks

i dont know why you guys are at all surprised

Mariners suck more.

Thats why we’re surprised

YAY
I would have gotten it up sooner but I needed to open up my photobucket page.
BrianL: Scaring off posters with his intimidating jpgs
It's for the best.
i agree

[on purpose]

[ ]

[Well played]

[* *]

[Dead meme]
It wasn't dead

Until we [COATHANGER]ed it… then it was dead

-[COATHANGER]=abortion

-[COATHANGER]ed=abortioned

-The proper word is aborted

How would I make this meme grammatically correct?
[COATHANGERED]
Ahhhh, my bad

Another mistake like that would be proof that I should have been [COATHANGERED]

[That's like 3 memes in that post]
[We're going to Memeami]
[Rabner is there!]
[I think you mean Thompson]
[Classic meme brought from dead]
[Party in the city where the heat is on all night on the beach till the break of dawn]
Thing I though I would see today

Did not include a Will Smith rap album reference… bravo

[Get that out of here]
I hate that meme

I just wanted to bring attention to how unfunny it is

We're not surprised.

We’re bored.

Did you hear that we are the Seattle Mariners?
We aren't surprised Colon sucks

We are surprised we were able to take advantage of his suckiness

i refuse to capitalize now that ive been asked

no punctuation either. well, maybe that period.

but seriously though, the angels let him go for a reason.

Protest like this isn't going to get you far.

Shape up with the shift.

If you need help, might I suggest this:

I don't think the solution is to capitalize every word
Solution To What?
The final solution?
Fuck that shit

We request that in the future you utilize a width tag in order to make this picture smaller.
What is a "good" width?
200
Up to 300

depends on height

Smaller?

I had a copy of this.

That is awesome
smaller, ect..

my resize shut off

I like the ahead of it's time FUBU-esque dig to their company name.
Your name is capitalized, sucker.
What about commas?
i guess they count too

but as far as im concerned, in a game thread, its the equivalent of a chatroom/instant message, so i dont bother.

banning me would be pointless but fun, i guess….i mostly lurk anyways

This is in no ways a chatroom or IM window.

Treating it like such will get you kicked out.

Last warning.

I don't really get it

Why bother with punctuation and all that shit? I mean, why? We’re chatting. This is, in no way, any different than a chatroom, except we’re not all 13 and/or pedophiles.

Not bothering with punctuation is a very 13-year old thing to do.
butthol counts in this case
Because although we are just BS'ing with each other while watching a game

We hold ourselves to a higher intellectual standard than “omg ms are bad lol”.

Even the (mostly) illiterate can capitalize

...and add punctuation. Your obsession with dead memes (and live ones) is far more indicative of the intellectual aura around a site.

Either way, I’m done…I was just curious.

How can an illiterate person know how to capitalize when they do not know how to read or write?
Any different from.

Not than.

So very wrong.
Yeah that's pretty much totally incorrect
Did Raben make this thread?
Slowly starting to look like a platoon Dave?
Raben builds giant space station and conquers Small Magellanic Cloud.

continuity

Sexson now gets a contract extension.
8-0

This is not productive.

Smoke and mirrors.

Smoke and mirrors.

Watch more Super Troopers
Obviously, telling Bill Bavasi to fuck himself is the best way to start a comeback.
But we've been doing that for years
We don't play

Its only limited to players.

Who is this and where is Sexson?

Cause if all Sexson had to do to hit was move his foot…I am going to kill some personnel

This team's probably just really excited that they've got a great relief pitcher coming
Hey, the Giants are up 8-0 as well. We ARE the same team.

We’re playing teh Red Sox, and they’re playin – oh, never mind.

I love that even when we are smashing the Sox in Fenway on Felix Day

we still make up stuff to amuse us

Any reports on how close Raben is to the majors?

Put him in now, fuck it.

MLB.tv kicked my ass tonight
OT: What does everyone thinkg of Ryan Royster

?

OT????

That’s not allowed here.

Our bullpen is really good
Any idea why MLB.tv was sucking tonight?

Or did you guys not have that problem?

What is the problem?

Mine is running fine right now. Took 5 minutes to load, though.

I could get it to load for about an hour

And all the mlb sites (Mariners, MLB.com, etc) were being really really slow

Ditto.
It was totally fucked.
No problem here.

And I just can’t get enough of that headset hilarity.

Since when has Richie Sexson had 3 singles in a game?
So yea,

We’ll have to put up with “Now the Mariners look like a playoff team” for a while before Batista craps the bed tomorrow.

nice play beltre.

I would’ve laughed my ass off if it stayed fair.

[a little more shift-key]
that Sox lineup is not as scary without Manny and Big Papi

Is ThIs WhAt YoU aRe LoOkInG fOr?
Holy crap!

Its a Mr. Saturn!

Holy crap!

Someone who’s played that game!

¥Σς
Lopez > Pedroia
Manny>>>>>Ibanez.

):<

No shit.
Pujols>>>>>>>Cairo
Babe Rith>>>>>>>>>>WFB
Babe Ruth>>>>>>Babe Rith
Babe Ruth >>>>>>>>>>>> Babe Rith
You sir, are late.
Player A>>>>>>>Coach Owens
Let's not go overboard here.
Shock and awe.

I like to take it to the next level with my audience.

Raben>>>>>>>>>>>>Babe Rith
oh christ i need this

Yes.

Lopez would be 5x the player if he played half his games at Fenway.

Go Lakers
Screw Kobe.
i am indifferent toward their opponents.
Agreed

Boston needs zero more championships

Well they only have two in the last 20 years or so.

That’s not many.

Did they take away the Pats tainted wins already?

Or do you not consider Them to be a Boston team, as Foxburo ain’t exactly in Boston. Or maybe your old school and don’t recognize the Unified Football trophy. Screw you AFC.

Two for the Red Sox, three for the Patriots.

Five since 2001 , and they’re threatening to get another in the NBA. That’s a healthy number.

Championship wins gained by cheating don't count.
Regardless I'm sick of seeing Boston fans being happy.
The Giants took care of some of that.

Thank you, Eli Manning.

Eli Manning is one of my favorite douchebags.
Just bring up spying everytime you meet one and no matter what they respond with

just say their wins no longer count.

The Revolution have lost in the MLS Cup for three years running

which makes me happy.

When I was little we went to a Rev game at the old Foxburo

That was one miserable experience.

Yeah that stadium looks like shit

I recommend visiting Toronto for an MLS game

I'm conflicted.

I don’t want the Celtics as a franchise to win a title. However, I do want Ray Allen to get one.

I also hate the Lakers.

One of these arenas needs to be 9/11'd during a game
I don't like that.

Shameful.

Oklahoma City?
Not much to crash a plane into there.
I was referring to Timothy McVeigh.
Needs to take place in a Utah Mine?
I don't see what the Sonics have to do with any of this.
Let's keep it to Seattle sports teams

Too soon?

WAY TOO SOON

MY FRIEND DIED FROM THE MOVEMENT OF SPORTS TEAMS

caps lock is cruise control for awesome
My friend moved the sports team

That killed your friend

SCREW YOU GUYS ONE OF HIS FRIENDS DIED IN (?!!
Yeah, I hate those (?!!

Bastard punctuation!

Everything is different in this post-(?!! world
I don't like that
regulars are allowed to break rules

it kicks butt

SHIFT
you in what army
THE CAPS ARMY
Are not

Okay. Annoying now. Let's ease up for a bit.
How is grammar nazism annoying?

A few more steps and we can make all the people who don’t capitalize wear patches of the shift key on their arms.

Nazis were more original
I think you would call this orthography nazism.
Stop killing my meme.
Tread softly, for you tread on my memes.
They killed my Raben meme before I got to enjoy it
Hopefully no Epic Meltdown Tonight

Super M’s.

We're saving that for tomorrow.
Is it really a meltdown if Tits buries us early?
Buried in a meltdown of tits

I wish I didn’t know what you were talking about so I could enjoy the visual

Melting tits is an enjoyable visual?
Well not when you put it that way

I was envisioning more a “cascade of tits”

Tap the Rockies

Maybe the Cascades too.

Did Dave Sims just say "Huge bulge at 8-0"?
Damn straight.
Indulge the Buldge

They Say.

Didn't Bip Roberts have a 12 minute AB one time?
This game is what happens when you get your hits at the right time

11 hits, 2 BB, 8 runs.

People at work are starting to think I'm retarded I think

I am giggling every 3 or 4 seconds reading this thread.. not complainin.

I think you need to laugh on the inside I think
i hope i never get banned from LL

i will not be able to watch baseball normally again.

You could move and get a new IP address
Post from the library
nah, i like to be legit

im moving next month anyway

Capitalize I
If Sexson gets back on track after this...

I don’t know

Only one of the hits was really hit well
So it is possible for the road team to win at Fenway?

Hmmmm.

This is cathartic.
Hyphen Sighting!
Bedard is pitching Sunday?

Sweet!

This Is Reverse Mojo

Since the Celtics beat the Lakers yesterday.

Raul vs. sidearming lefty.

This will end well.

Correct!

He walked! Now he’s just clogging the base paths!

Bad luck again.
Bad luck more like unclutch
FUCK YOU LUCK!

BELTRE DESERVES THAT HIT DAMNIT!

There are your caps
I needed to raise the Caps% of this thread, because everyone else was failing at it.
Only if luck be a lady tonight
I saw him hit a HR

...then he had an emergency appendectomy the next day.

Why won't Vidro's hamstrings blow up?
None of the right players ever get hurt
Vidro chews hot dog flavored gum
Sprayed with Pam
Excuse me, sirs, but the Mariners are occupying the wrong part of the scoreboard

The zero should be in front of them and the crooked number should belong to the other team.

Anyone know who that random dude is doing commentary with Niehaus on the radio?

Dan Wilson.
Duly noted
No way

That’s awesome. I am an unabashed Dan Wilson fan

Dan Wilson is the reason why Rhodes threw the wrong pitches
Be that as it may

When I first got into baseball, I was a catcher. So it was natural. It’s stuff like that which can’t be explained. It’s like wondering why I like the Mariners.

When I first got into baseball

My favorite players were Brian L Hunter, Bobby Ayala and Bill Swift

See, there is no explaining that

And I stick by Dan Wilson

No.

I refuse to believe this. Not with Edgar and Griffey on the team.

I was attracted to the suck

This also explains why I am attracted to the Mariners

Tino Martinez and Erik Hanson

People I like named Erik need to stop getting injured

My first baseball team was the Padres.

Bip Roberts boyeeeeee!

When I first started watching baseball in the 80's we had A's games simulcast

I was an uncanny Bob Welch fan.

I used to live next door to him.

True story.

No joke -

He and his wife are super nice.

Who is this RRS fellow?
HOO-RAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYSSSSSSSSSS
You and your subliminal messages!
Dan Wilson on playing in Boston

“It’s almost as fun shagging here as it is hitting here.”

I see.

This is Sexson first 3 hit game of the year
Hyphen doesn't suck.

Yay!

Nice swing Moss.
BRAN-DON MOSS
Hey is it me

is does Sexson play incredibly well when he sport a cold sore?

So that's the key to his hitting!

Herpes outbreaks!

that'll do it

A WIN!

We keep beating the Red Sox

Awesomeness

No arguments here!
MARINERS WIN THE WORLD SERIES!

WORLD CHAMPIONS!

Thank you!

Yeah, thanks.

Where’s the skeet skeet pic?

I think that was banned
oh, he asked for the skeet.
Hey we anti-lost
War the dance party
Hay, we can beat the Red Sox.
Oh, the game is over?

What kind of bizarro world do we live in?

I believe this one hundred percent
as they do the hand slaps they are just saying "Fuck You" "Fuck You" "Fuck You"
fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, fuck you

you’re cool, fuck you, fuck you

Vidro

Hot dog, hot dog, hot dog, cheese in a can, twinkies, hot dog, hot dog

Yay for beating the sux!

You ought to start doing it with one fiddle cat for each win
Our current record is 22 Fiddle Cats to 39 Strasburg Christmases
That's bad.
That's good
Not it's not.
Closer to SAS=Good.

Although without a FO change he’ll simply give us the supersick bullpen of Fields-Morrow-Strasburg-Putz.

MsMsMsMsMsMsMsMsMsMs

From DRaysBay to Lookout Landing

We send our thanks. Awesome showing, Mariners!

DAMMIT RICHIE!

You’re too tall. We can’t see Nicole Z’s rack.

Can we get a screenshot of her?

I have never seen this woman.

Damn MLB.tv!

a glorious rack
Mmmmmm glorious rack

Fiddler Cat invasion

Nice!

phredmojo!

Okay, I don't get this

So Shannon’s ‘guest’ on her radio postgame interview was Raul, and according to Rizzs, all ‘guests’ on the KOMO Mariners postgame receive a free gift card to Cutter’s Bayhouse.

What good does a gift card to a restaurant do for a player who makes no less than a few hundred thousand dollars a year and, in many cases, several million per? I mean… do they even think about this shit?

Meanwhile, back to basking in a rare Mariners victory.

Advertising for the restaurant
Cutters sucks

but you get to watch cocaine deals go down at the park next door.

Raben almost went deep, again.
Those watching Raben:

Is the swing as long as advertised?

He looks like Jeremy Reed on steroids.
So, loopy swing?
He has Reed's exact stance and swing.

Except he is huge and can pound the ball.

So, yes.

Interesting

That sounds like potential.

If Reed was once a top prospect, Raben could be even better with his offensive potential.
The good news about him

Nothing looks unfixable

Yes its long

He gets under the ball alot.

So.. why is Balentien still up?

Also, apparently another little perk to this comments automatically marked new phenomenon is that threads I haven’t read are marked as read as well. Awesome.

Also, was today Good Felix, Average Felix or Bad and Lucky Felix?
Wasn't awesome Felix,

but he did induce more ground balls today. I’d go with pretty good Felix.

I'm cool with this Felix
I also should point out he was getting squeezed a little.

At least one of those walks should have been a strikeout.

Dammit this is one long commercial break.

Where is my Rays feed?

Oh great work, MLB.TV.

Bring me back in after two outs are recorded.

Nice

MLB.com

King Felix reigns in Boston
Felix Hernandez extended his Fenway Park scoreless streak to 15 innings.



Needs more beer.
Needs more Adam West.
Needs more Chacarron.
Space Ghost!

I miss that show

RAAAAAAAYYYYYSSSSSSSS!
Rays take advantage.

Mission Accomplished.

So apparently the winning formula is

Upper management explosion +
Field Manager Explosion +
Boston + = Win

Dammit I ment to type Errors
meant*

fuck i give up

I just realized our last three wins were shutouts.
And Felix started two of them
Tampa Bay attacks weak point for massive damage.
Critical hit! It's super effective!
House Season Finale Part 2 on USA

With no OTH to watch I can embrace the awesomeness of House

Oh and FWIW

13>Cameron>Cuddy

But yes to all

I call bullshit.
Haha I see why you think that way.

But wrong.

So even though I have very little background.

Wow. Fantastic episode.

It almost got a little dusty here at the end

You're still wrong.
You guys have to stop this winning stuff...

or GS52 will not equal the M’s win total in saves!!!

God damn am I seeing this right?

8 – 0 Mariners? WTF? They won a game, against the hated red sox?

Uhh, this was new
