I’ve been wanting this for about 3 years. Just pick a game, non NY or BoSox, obviously, and ban that fucking thing. Originally to get rid of Bavasi, but now to get rid of Chuck A. and that other guy. Lee?
it was also the birth of franktv which i also saw potential in despite its ad nasum commerical compaign. but alas it did not work. much like depotism in the west. actually what the fuck does depotism mean.? some thing with politics i assume zomg no politics amirite i guess. its ashame i would have liked to learn tonighty. but in the end it only means we;l with that rule. but thats the buety of wiki pedia you lurn as you surf unlike those dead fucking beats in hawaii.
Riggles had him in the post game interview, said he’s hurting. Guess all that playing time caught up to him. Shit shit shit shit. I’m now down to 2 players, and a bullpen that is surprisingly entertaining.
The White Sox on Saturday optioned third baseman Josh Fields to Class AAA Charlotte and traded minor league outfielder Paulo Orlando to the Kansas City Royals for veteran lefthander Horacio Ramirez.
Silva leads the AL in losses Batista is tied for second Washburn is fifth.
Conclusion:
Signing a bunch of mediocre and expensive FA starting pitchers that pitch to contact, and then putting a crappy defense behind them gets you fired as a general manager.
I didn't take it that way, which is why I responded with the sob thing.
Then remembered sarcasm doesn’t read well, hence the apology/explanation above. It’s just how I talk, my redneck roots showing. If I think people are being a prick I generally don’t respond at all.
MORE INNINGS PLEASE!!
RafaelCarmona22 - August 9, 2008
Batista in.
Awesome.
ThundaPC - August 9, 2008
Huh.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
More pitchers on Offense.
Christian - August 9, 2008
WLAD IN CENTER
Gomez - August 9, 2008
If only we had traded for Griffey
Christian - August 9, 2008
Then we have no Clement
Gomez - August 9, 2008
I want him to play CF as much as possible.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
So the M's win the [DEAD MEME] Sweepstakes?
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
Because if he's capable of playing CF it's a really huge deal.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
I remain unconvinced.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
So do I, but if he's done okay in Tacoma, it's worth a shot.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
You might also consider this team thinks Raul is a decent defender in LF.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
I'm not going to assume the team is stupid until they hire the new GM.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
JUST CAUSE WE PARANTEHESE IT DOESNT MAKE IT ANY MORE FUNNY AT ALL
Robert - August 9, 2008
Who said I was making it funny?
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
You asked for drunk Robert
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
That I did.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
I HAD THAT READY TO GO TOO
Robert - August 9, 2008
On the second beer, are we?
Take your beer off the caps lock key.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
4ish
Robert - August 9, 2008
This thread is useless without bad MSPaint drawings
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
give me time
im a doctor not a miracle worker
Robert - August 9, 2008
Don't post intentionally unfunny things?
Matthew - August 9, 2008
Ichiro in RF, not CF
Oh, and Beluga Tits gets to hit. Awesome.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
Now he can show suck on both sides of the game.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
Three game threads on a Saturday whee!
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
Felix pinch hit
please?
IceStormV1 - August 9, 2008
You know what's funny about Felix's grand slam?
It came on a first pitch predictable fastball.
Matthew - August 9, 2008
Felix walk-off
would bring LL down, too
wwbaker3 - August 9, 2008
Yes. Now go Rays!
Matthew - August 9, 2008
tits in
Rays will win
IceStormV1 - August 9, 2008
Please end this on a Tits walkoff
Graham MacAree - August 9, 2008
We lived without a DH for a while now
we can live without one for a little while longer
wwbaker3 - August 9, 2008
rec'd
Christian - August 9, 2008
yes
IceStormV1 - August 9, 2008
So I got slammed at work and missed the past few innings.
Can someone explain why we don’t have a real DH anymore? All the bench bats used?
Teej - August 9, 2008
Willie's leg exploded, everyone else used.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
Edgar retired a while ago bud.
Christian - August 9, 2008
I work long shifts.
Teej - August 9, 2008
Hahaha
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
Finally a DHless game!
JI - August 9, 2008
Vidro still here, in spirit.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
Eight run inning coming up?
I’d almost rather pitch Burke.
Two Rs and Two Ls - August 9, 2008
Pass, I want the Rays to win. Leave Tits in.
Matthew - August 9, 2008
It's the 12 run 12th inning brought to you by someone or rather
Gomez - August 9, 2008
Seriously.
Am I the only Mariners fan left? At least its not more of the “play to lose” for draft picks.
batura - August 9, 2008
I am a fan of the team getting better talent next season.
Matthew - August 9, 2008
Feels too much like the NBA mentality.
batura - August 9, 2008
What's a NBA?
Matthew - August 9, 2008
National Bar Association. Duh.
Gomez - August 9, 2008
I thinks its a bacholear degree
Robert - August 9, 2008
Matthew spends ridiculously large amounts of his life providing content for a Mariners blog
And yet you are the only Mariners fan left in the world?
Graham MacAree - August 9, 2008
And he means a ri-DICK-ously amount of time
Robert - August 9, 2008
Make sure to ban me when its time to go
Robert - August 9, 2008
Except in baseball the worst record actually gets you the first pick.
You can tank in the NBA, finish last, and you still are unlikely to get the No. 1 pick.
Teej - August 9, 2008
I am a fan of a Boston/New York free October.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
Seconded
I don’t think the M’s performance this series will decide that, though. This series more like choosing between two delicious flavors of ice cream.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
"is"
GOD
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
No guarantees with this team
1 does NOT equal the S-dudewwbaker3 - August 9, 2008
GOD.
Matthew - August 9, 2008
That would be so weak.
Omerta - August 9, 2008
I am a fan of seeing our pitchers hit at Safeco
Graham MacAree - August 9, 2008
I would love to see the M's win this game in a hilarious fashion.
In fact, the hilariouser the better.
Two Rs and Two Ls - August 9, 2008
I do want them to win
But Batista losing it is oddly funny.
krb - August 9, 2008
If the M's are going to be this bad, I'd like to see them be bad enough to get something out of it.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
I am a fan of things that are interesting
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
This is a good start.
Teej - August 9, 2008
I like walks.
It says to the opposing team, “fuck you. We don’t need no stinking positivity.
kevin_ess - August 9, 2008
It probably gets to a point
where winning or losing doesn’t matter, just watching the dramatic conclusion.
Hit4TheCycle - August 9, 2008
I call that point April.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
LOSE ALREADY YOU FUCKERS
OlSalty - August 9, 2008
So if Batista goes to bat, will LL survive him getting HBP or a HR?
Christian - August 9, 2008
LL server >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> USSM server
Gomez - August 9, 2008
We're gonna take down the entire Sports Blog fuckin' Nation.
Two Rs and Two Ls - August 9, 2008
Hey, Miguel. Adrian is still pissed off.
and remember … "Adrian Beltre is a nice guy, but when Adrian gets mad? Oooooh, you don’t want to be around."
msb - August 9, 2008
LOL@ GO RAYS GO CHANT
P Brady - August 9, 2008
Brett must be gettin' rowdy.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
Those are some fucking loud Rays fans
Gomez - August 9, 2008
Lots of Rays fan there last night too.
Matthew - August 9, 2008
Especially on a Mariners blog ;)
I know you’re referring to the audio.
batura - August 9, 2008
It's the second coming of ASUBoyd!
Graham MacAree - August 9, 2008
Not trying to be annoying.
I’m just not a fan of playing to lose, and that has become a common attitude lately.
batura - August 9, 2008
I am in favour of playing to entertain.
Graham MacAree - August 9, 2008
And some people believe that to be a better strategy in order to win in the coming years.
Those people are still Mariners fans.
Teej - August 9, 2008
One player won't change anything.
Hiring an intelligent GM that doesn’t piss money away on useless pieces is a much more productive way to build for the future.
batura - August 9, 2008
These things are not mutually exclusive.
Teej - August 9, 2008
(Not to mention that losing helped us get rid of a GM who pisses away money on useless pieces.)
Teej - August 9, 2008
You know what, I'd like to see a fan boycott!
I’ve been wanting this for about 3 years. Just pick a game, non NY or BoSox, obviously, and ban that fucking thing. Originally to get rid of Bavasi, but now to get rid of Chuck A. and that other guy. Lee?
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
We wanted RRS to win
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
Yeah, I relalized that -- that was a shame.
batura - August 9, 2008
Once we realized he couldn't get the win it just made sense to root for the Rays
in the grand scheme of things, there was more satisfaction to be gained from a loss than from a win.
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
My satisfaction came from Putz vs Pena.
batura - August 9, 2008
I don't only mean satisfaction today
A big part of it is longer-term.
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
My brain still can't comprehend the idea of watching Kaz and Shields pitch in the playoffs.
Teej - August 9, 2008
My brain can't comprehend the idea of not watching Jeter and Rivera in the playoffs
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
That's soul crushing.
kevin_ess - August 9, 2008
I was in middle school the last time that happened.
Teej - August 9, 2008
I was 10
JI - August 9, 2008
I was 2.
If you don’t count ‘94
Mariner John - August 10, 2008
Bullshit it's never happened
Ian? - August 9, 2008
You were 5
JI - August 9, 2008
I do not have any meaningful baseball memories of a time at which it happened
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
You make me feel so old.
I remember the 1991 World Series.
JI - August 9, 2008
Actually the Joe Carter memory just came back to me
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
About fucking time.
JI - August 9, 2008
The national athem of that game is my first baseball memory
Robert - August 10, 2008
The Pirates/Braves NLCSes ruled
Gomez - August 10, 2008
I sorta remember the 1990 World Series too.
JI - August 9, 2008
Holy christ, I remember the waving white hankies the Twins had.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
I remember betting my buddy on the playground that the A's would stomp the Reds.
Lost a couple lunches.
Omerta - August 10, 2008
It was pretty much Griffey and a bunch of opposing baseball teams for me.
I was more of an NBA fan.
Teej - August 9, 2008
I have mixed feelings.
I of course am totally excited about the Rays possibly going to the postseason, but I seriously dread listening to all the bullshit if they lose.
“Don’t have experience in the postseason” and other mindless quotes from the “analysts”.
batura - August 9, 2008
I, too, fear this.
Teej - August 9, 2008
Even that would be worth all the pandering to Yankees or Red Sox fans if they're denied a postseason
OlSalty - August 9, 2008
Certainly.
batura - August 9, 2008
Would be worth it
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
We all clearly hate the Mariners.
Can’t put anything past you.
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
Get a real job and haircut slacker
Robert - August 9, 2008
Wow,
“Go Rays Go!!”
wwbaker3 - August 9, 2008
at least it's not a clap-clap-clapclapclap
Two Rs and Two Ls - August 9, 2008
There must be some LL rep there.
Omerta - August 9, 2008
Whoa, the game is still going on?
Benne - August 9, 2008

P Brady - August 9, 2008
Just got home from work...
Was expecting to read a game recap and got this instead. Pleasant surprise, to say the least.
Benne - August 9, 2008
This game can't end this quickly
need DH
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
Strained right hamstring?
You whiny little bastard. Walk it off.
Graham MacAree - August 9, 2008
Dammit we need to tie this game

Way to go, Tits.
We knew you were capable of coughing this one up. JJ tried, but he still has vestigial talent.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
Damn it
I wanna see this game go on long enough to reach tits in the lineup
IceStormV1 - August 9, 2008

Hit4TheCycle - August 9, 2008
Did Blowers just yell "eat him up!"
kentroyals5 - August 9, 2008
Yeah.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
I enjoyed that.
kentroyals5 - August 9, 2008
Wonder who'll get called up to replace Willie?
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
Tuglett
Christian - August 9, 2008
Tuggles dammit Tuggles!
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
I can't call him that due to a huge fear of Snuggles.
Christian - August 9, 2008
The fabric softener bear?
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
hella creepy.
Christian - August 9, 2008
Yeah.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
Dry hump him, and your irrational fear is gone.
kevin_ess - August 9, 2008
I don't know why, but it doesn't bug me when you say these things.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
It's because you love me.
As well you should.
kevin_ess - August 9, 2008
So Blowers is actually getting better at his job.
Aaron Campeau - August 9, 2008
He gets excited over 3B plays.

He seems to be saying much more insightful things lately.

THANKS FOR WASTING MY TIME.
OlSalty - August 9, 2008
I don't think I've ever seen a guy go down on strikes and have to run it out
as much as LaHair has in his short MLB career.
Omerta - August 9, 2008
I t hink he's 1/3 with actually making it to first safely.
But if the catcher can’t stop it..you shouldn’t fucking swing
kentroyals5 - August 9, 2008
oh well

Well, that was a crappy ending.
If completely predictable once Batista came in.
Can’t wait to see him close tomorrow. Hope Dickey’s got a CG in him.

Was hoping to see him get some time in the NL.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
It's a strained hammy
He’ll be fine.
Gomez - August 10, 2008
eventually.
msb - August 10, 2008
Thanks.
Riggles had him in the post game interview, said he’s hurting. Guess all that playing time caught up to him. Shit shit shit shit. I’m now down to 2 players, and a bullpen that is surprisingly entertaining.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
Yeah.

The White Sox on Saturday optioned third baseman Josh Fields to Class AAA Charlotte and traded minor league outfielder Paulo Orlando to the Kansas City Royals for veteran lefthander Horacio Ramirez.
That Paulo Orlando, he’s no Rafael Soriano.
Gomez - August 10, 2008
I like that Batista lost and the Rays didn't
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
I know W-L is stupid, but
combined record for our 3-4-5 at the start of the season, collectively making 30 million: 13-36
GOD
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
Also:
Silva leads the AL in losses
Batista is tied for second
Washburn is fifth.
Conclusion:
Signing a bunch of mediocre and expensive FA starting pitchers that pitch to contact, and then putting a crappy defense behind them gets you fired as a general manager.
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
This is one of those times when I enjoy the loss statistic.
Teej - August 10, 2008
All on one team, wow.
The M’s are… are… I’m at a loss.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
Heh, fitting...
I just found out that I have an indirect connection directly to Batista (through one of my wife’s friends). Fitting that he got the loss…
Bwahahahahahaha. Terrible…
PositivePaul - August 9, 2008
Paul, please post more pics at MC - I need new wallpaper, my friend.
kevin_ess - August 9, 2008
Thanks for the reminder...
I posted the Hyphen wallpaper on Flickr, but I haven’t added it to the list at MC…
PositivePaul - August 9, 2008
nice shot, btw
do you have an address for said list at MC?
msb - August 10, 2008
Good question.
Does this link work for you?
If it doesn’t, then this link to my wallpapers on Flickr should…
PositivePaul - August 10, 2008
really?
I think you should volunteer to take the next book-jacket photo—maybe a tweed jacket, a pipe clenched in the teeth, some autumn leaves swirling past….
msb - August 9, 2008
A photo of Miguel in a walker...
...walking the world would probably work better.
PositivePaul - August 10, 2008
Hey, is there an ignore button around here I'm just not finding?
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
YOU WILL READ OUR ANNOYING COMMENTS AND YOU WILL LIKE IT
OlSalty - August 9, 2008
NOT YOU, YOU LOUD SOB!!
I was thinking of other people/person. Not to be named, and it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things anyway.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
And please don't be offended by my use of SOB.
I only speak like this to people I think can take it/respect/know and like. There’s probably other people in that list, but I’m struggling tonight.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
I WAS COMPLETELY NOT BEING SERIOUS
OlSalty - August 9, 2008
I didn't take it that way, which is why I responded with the sob thing.
Then remembered sarcasm doesn’t read well, hence the apology/explanation above. It’s just how I talk, my redneck roots showing. If I think people are being a prick I generally don’t respond at all.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
You obviously haven't seen all of our Nazi photoshops.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
Watch out, BrianL
I hear the Mexicans are next
Ian? - August 9, 2008
Faux has earned the right to use that joke.
You? Not so much.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
Oh shit did I just get served?
Ian? - August 10, 2008
Go back to where you came from racist
Robert - August 10, 2008
You are such a goddamn venereal disease
Ian? - August 10, 2008
This most likely will not end well for you.
BrianL - August 10, 2008
Butthol?
Robert - August 10, 2008
Needs more ignore button.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
It needed to be said
Ian? - August 10, 2008
I wouldn't take pot-shots at the regulars until you've established yourself here.
BrianL - August 10, 2008
He's a regular
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
A regular virgin amirite?
Robert - August 10, 2008
I called out your name in the streets of San Diego but you never answered
Ian? - August 10, 2008
We have many streets
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
I heard him.
He was near Aiberto’s, where much drunken yelling takes place.
Teej - August 10, 2008
And I'll go cower in a corner now.
BrianL - August 10, 2008
Wussy.
I like what you’re wearing!
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
What the hell is wrong with the posters these days
5 bucks says he tries to show up tomorrow
Robert - August 10, 2008
Robert doesn't even know how to cook tacos
what an idiot
Ian? - August 10, 2008
the greasse burns so hard
Robert - August 10, 2008
Five or six now? Seven?
Good on you.
kevin_ess - August 10, 2008
5 right now
1 left to go
Robert - August 10, 2008
Que?
Faux - August 10, 2008
Ha! Only a matter of time until the Nazi's show up!
I forget what the name of the rule is, but I had it pegged for the 8th inning. I wasn’t expecting extra innings.
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
No
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
I have one on my t-shirt that reads, "ignore myself." Is that what you're looking for?
kevin_ess - August 9, 2008
I wish
Ian? - August 9, 2008
Incredibly Batitsta got pulled from the rotation today and still managed to get the loss
Nick S - August 9, 2008
The Loss Vulture.
ThundaPC - August 9, 2008
holy crap.
how can anyone think that Vinnie is an improvement over Capuano?
msb - August 9, 2008
bigger mammaries? more junk in his trunk?
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
well
it should be a time-saver, now, what with turning off the tv as soon as the game ends, and having no reason to listen to the radio post-game shows
msb - August 10, 2008
Radio is sucking without Drayer.
And Huettler (sic) seems to be holding down the fort by himself suddenly. Yeesh.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
Hutyler
yep. looks like they are going to make do with him and Pitman.
msb - August 10, 2008
Hutyler. Thanks, doesn't look anything like it sounds, but then it sounds Dutch. Or something.
Can’t wait to hear the radio back on KIRO, I thought it was much better there.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
How is NY Vinnie still alive?
Omerta - August 9, 2008
One of the great mysteries of life.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
I have to wonder what the opposing team player thinks as Vinnie trundles towards him
msb - August 9, 2008
too many jokes.
Beer run!!
dpseadv - August 9, 2008
When did Carlos Silva become white?
eponymous_coward - August 9, 2008
Ha ha ha! This is exactly what I came up with while rooting for beer in the 'fridge!
And nothing else. My funny bone is broken, must be the math I’ve been reading.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
We were winning 5-0
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
Really?
JI - August 9, 2008
It's going to be hilarious when the media pins the entire loss on Beltre tomorrow.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
will they even notice, what with Wee Willie's injury?
msb - August 9, 2008
Let it go man.
JI - August 9, 2008
One of these days I'm going to go postal on the Times.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
I hope they give Carlos Silva a column like they did Todd Jones
I for one feel he has a lot of things to say
Jeff Sullivan - August 9, 2008
If that helps get him run out of town
I’ll personally conduct the interview.
BrianL - August 9, 2008
Will he have more or less hate for the fags?
JI - August 9, 2008
My Thoughts, by Carlos Silva
dear diary ….
msb - August 9, 2008
Well if he's going to stink up the joing he might as well be entertaining.
Omerta - August 9, 2008
*joint
Omerta - August 9, 2008
They're not going to pin it on Lopez?
Gomez - August 10, 2008
They should
Ian? - August 10, 2008
Hitting over .300 makes you immune from criticism.
(Unless you’re Ichiro.)
Teej - August 10, 2008
*immune to
Teej - August 10, 2008
Stupid
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
I have 20 minutes until my workweek is over. I'm just about out of grammar.
Teej - August 10, 2008
Use the Graham-er hammer in a emergancey
Robert - August 10, 2008
Too lazy to break the glass.
Teej - August 10, 2008
Whatever BJ
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
Way to pace yourself
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
Not even the Hall of Fame could make Ichiro immune from criticism.
BrianL - August 10, 2008
He should go back to Taiwan
Ian? - August 10, 2008
The just tallied up some of latest records on the post game.
So what’s the temperature of LL regulars on Ichiro’s Japanese records being included with his American numbers?
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
Nice to talk about, shouldn't be included, should matter re: HoF
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
They.
dpseadv - August 10, 2008
So...this gamethread was pretty freaking awesome again
I love LL.
OlSalty - August 9, 2008
I missed it.
A recap possibly?
Fin - August 9, 2008
Oh hey, Dbacks are still in first.
ThundaPC - August 9, 2008
I miss Kirk Rueter
Kirk Rueter was terrible
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
Strikeouts are selfish.
JI - August 10, 2008
but he had a 'wacky'nickname
msb - August 10, 2008
BUT HE WAS SERVICABLE IN WORLD SERIES BASEBALL 2K3!!1!
Omerta - August 10, 2008
This game took 266 minutes
Jeff Sullivan - August 10, 2008
They had all those left-over minutes from thursday
msb - August 10, 2008
Carlos Silva was tired of his teammates being selfish and hoarding their rollover minutes.
Teej - August 10, 2008
If this was a racoon it would be slow as fuck
Robert - August 10, 2008
damn.
I miss Doyle.
msb - August 10, 2008
By the way
Happy fourth felixathomeversay! (was actually last night)
Robert - August 10, 2008
So was I the only one who was rooting for the M's in the end besides batura?
And the only one who turned it off during the 6th?
Mariner John - August 10, 2008
I was rooting for the M's to win it, just under very specific circumstances.
Graham MacAree - August 10, 2008
I just felt I would be more satisfied after watching for 4.5 hours.
Not that I would really care otherwise after Jimenez blew RRS’s lead.
