Alternate title: Proof That This Happened
This is the line out the door at like 1:05 in the afternoon. The event was scheduled to begin at 1:30.
Pretty much all of the empty seats you see here were filled by the time the talk started. The Marlins get smaller crowds.
The first person to say anything nasty gets banned.
From left: Tony Blengino, Tom McNamara, Pedro Grifol, and Carmen Fusco. Note that Grifol has but one water bottle in front of him despite talking the most, whereas Fusco is preparing to put out a wildfire.

He does look a bit like Harold Ramis...
BrianL - January 15, 2009
Where are all the chicks?
JI - January 15, 2009
One of them was taking the pictures
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
And take them she did
Robert - January 15, 2009
You make this sound dirty.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
There were like 5-10 females there.
But one was my mom, so that really doesn’t count.
mark sobba - January 15, 2009
Sitting in the front row laughing at the quiet end of the table.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
I thoroughly enjoyed a couple reactions they had to a few statments made by the farm director guy.
Especially Graham’s when it was mentioned that Clement is a great defensive catcher, can throw out runners, stop balls, etc.
kentroyals5 - January 15, 2009
Who are the three
In the picture that we’re not supposed to comment on?
TheTank123 - January 15, 2009
I think one of them is Gil Meche
kentroyals5 - January 15, 2009
I can safely say
that if Gil Meche were in that picture that we would definitely be able to comment on it without getting banned.
TheTank123 - January 15, 2009
Sexy people
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Where?
I don’t see any in that pic
mariners124m - January 15, 2009
JOKES JOKES
DON’T BAN ME
mariners124m - January 15, 2009
Too late
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Why is "You feel shame" crossed out?
Robert - January 15, 2009
It's not
that is the bottom of the america bank sign
Trenchtown - January 15, 2009
We already have one of these
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
I couldn't find it.
Plus I wanted the “you feel shame” line in there.
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Is the box located in Brooklyn?
Robert - January 15, 2009
Someone needs to watch Slapshot more often.
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Plus I get more satisfaction seeing Sid in the box
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Hmmm.
This says nothing about the SECOND (and so on) person…
…Robert – served up to you!
PositivePaul - January 15, 2009
Could be sexier
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Matthew and Graham are holding a brother back
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
You seem to be dressed pretty sharply
I’m guessing Mrs. Jeff was involved?
ningwers - January 15, 2009
WAS SHE EVER!
Robert - January 15, 2009
I need details!
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Good grief.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
Mrs.?
Ay yi yi
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Lady Jeff?
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Ms. Jeff would be the proper term
and dammit I can dress myself
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Commitaphobe
ningwers - January 15, 2009
hmmm
JI - January 15, 2009
This explains a lot
ningwers - January 15, 2009
I backed you up.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
You're on my good side!
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Took long enough
JI - January 15, 2009
I already was.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Women
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Am I right?
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Always
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Really?
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
Wait how did you convince Ms. Jeff to come with you?
“hey you want to goto Seattle to meet my cult?”
Scruffy Lefty - January 15, 2009
If I didn't have tact there would be no Ms. Jeff
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Gotcha
Just like if I didn’t have such good looks there wouldn’t be a Mrs. Scruffy (thats sounds weird)
Scruffy Lefty - January 15, 2009
She says he dressed himself just fine before she came around.
Surprising, I know.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
They should have brought along some sort of Speeza Jack in the box.
Robert - January 15, 2009
That sounds like a kick ass Halloween costume
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Does it dispense blind passes in the defensive zone after it's popped?
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Hell yeah
Plus it takes the blame for everything that goes wrong on Halloween
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Note the sweet suit in the bottom pic
Sportszilla - January 15, 2009
Like I told Two R's and Two L's, it astonishes me how many people showed up for this.
I was at the very first LL meetup in 2005 at Cheney. And I think their was 6 or 7 of us.
Goose - January 15, 2009
And I couldn't drink :(
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
By the way, what ever happened to Trent and Devin?
Goose - January 15, 2009
Devin went to school in Montana and I don't know what happened to Trent
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Trent goes by Treena now.
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Hey now...
…no he doesn’t!
Trent’s very much alive and well…
PositivePaul - January 15, 2009
I've said it before, but part of me always thinks of Jeff as the teetotaler.
“More coke, please.”
marc w - January 15, 2009
HAHAHAHA
Yeah!
The rainout!
PositivePaul - January 15, 2009
Sexy Sonuva bitch....
in the yellow.
The guy in front of me looks like he wants to put hi head in my lap.
PLU Tim - January 15, 2009
Jeebus, you're alive....
marc w - January 16, 2009
They really need to have those seats recline when you get up.
One hand to practically stand on their seat just to let people through.
Goose - January 15, 2009
had rather
Goose - January 15, 2009
I was looking at the pictures
and man is that a lot of white people.
Edgar for Pres - January 15, 2009
I'm not white
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
All the extra u's mean you're the whitest person here.
JI - January 15, 2009
Is pale a better description? Do you feel happy to be included now?
Edgar for Pres - January 15, 2009
Graham's never happy
ningwers - January 15, 2009
He's smiling in the picture
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
That's not a smile.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
He's smiling condescendingly in the picture
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
This is his every day face.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Maybe he's always condescendingly pleased
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
I just assumed he basically vacillates between rage and contempt
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Generally people don't report back on the rage
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
if you've done your rage properly they're in no shape to
pdb - January 15, 2009
I find you perfectly friendly.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Is that Red?
Kermit. - January 15, 2009
Indeed it is
Robert - January 15, 2009
YES!!!!!!
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
THERE IT IS
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Did you wait until he was away to post this?
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Most of my successes are accidental
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Ban him and his sock puppet so everyone can see it
Robert - January 15, 2009
Oh my.
Goose - January 15, 2009
This begs for a caption but I don't want to get banned.
You do it, Robert.
BrianL - January 15, 2009
I can think of few pictures in less need of a caption
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
I'm with you on this one.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
Caption:
“Where is Wig Wig?”
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
I rescind my earlier statement.
I forgot about Wig Wig.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
I tried for a re-take.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Finding out about Wig Wig was the best thing about that whole day.
Aaron Campeau - January 15, 2009
I wish my door locked
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
Party Rule #1 is to never be the first one asleep
ningwers - January 15, 2009
He wasn't.
But no one was going to mess with Ms Jeff.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
Well...
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Rawr
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
;)
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
I'll sell for 25 camels
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
Huh.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
I believe Ms Jeff hit him for this
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Price drop!
It used to be 30.
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Bad economy
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
Special extra sexy person price
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
I'm holding out for the buy 1 get 1 free sale
Matthew - January 15, 2009
I hate you both
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
That's where the free one comes in handy!
Matthew - January 15, 2009
Oh boy.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
HAHAHAHA
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Amended: hate you all.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 16, 2009
hahaha
JI - January 16, 2009
Party Rule #2 is I wish my door locked
Graham MacAree - January 15, 2009
You frighten me
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
His coat of arrogance comes off every now and than
Robert - January 15, 2009
Where is the one of Graham saying something really witty
Robert - January 15, 2009
In the C:\Unicorns folder
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Is that in the same directory as the nsfw ponies folder?
JI - January 15, 2009
That's on the desktop
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Diggin the beard Jeff
Scruffy Lefty - January 15, 2009
That's a beard?
Goose - January 15, 2009
Yours isn't a fair standard
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
What else would it be.
JI - January 15, 2009
A lifetime of work for Robert?
ningwers - January 15, 2009
If only you knew
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
This is Robert after a week of not shaving
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
I want the other photos from the nights
Robert - January 15, 2009
So you can piece together what happened?
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
I remember saying "knick nack paddy whack give a dog a bone" but have no idea what the context was.
Robert - January 15, 2009
I think it was out of the blue. Not totally sure.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
There was no context
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Apropos of nothing
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
This is one of my new favorite pictures
ningwers - January 15, 2009
It's better when Jeff is sitting on the chair.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
This picture makes me really happy!
Kirk - January 15, 2009
BAM!
PositivePaul - January 15, 2009
The sitename took on a different meaning w/r/t Robert's Mt Dew bottle.
Matthew - January 15, 2009
I heard something about a yoga parlor, I believe...
PositivePaul - January 15, 2009
Okay NOW I need details
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Robert wept.
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
Ziploc rope is unreliable
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Hey my 2009 one is starting to really show
Robert - January 15, 2009
You go boy
ningwers - January 15, 2009
Oh snap
JI - January 15, 2009
I see my parents in that crowd
Fett42 - January 15, 2009
Are you going bald or did you just cut your hair really short?
Corco - January 15, 2009
Buzzcuts are short
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
Oh my bad that question was actually addressed at Graham
Corco - January 15, 2009
what
Jeff Sullivan - January 15, 2009
I can see myself
Barely, some guy is standing up in front of me
mlbnotebook - January 15, 2009
Johnbai makes me look so tiny.
Aaron Campeau - January 15, 2009
Johnbai makes the space needle look tiny.
royalcurve - January 15, 2009
You?
Kirsten Schlewitz - January 15, 2009
hmmm.
apparently I was sitting when all around me were standing.
msb - January 15, 2009
where's the poncho I've heard tell about?
msb - January 15, 2009
Nice stuff.
Surprised this wasnt rec’d.
Looks like Jeff is giving out an autograph in the last picture. I have no idea how you can guys can be up there beside Mariner officials with a Pittsburgh Pirates-type crowd watching.
Slica - January 15, 2009
One thing is for certain...
Carmen Fusco’s bladder took as absolute beating during this event. I’m not sure that he’s recovered.
