Some LL'er should make a "really good" rally fries sign
and on the back put something on the back of the sign saying that rally fries are the worst thing ever. Then when you win, flip it over and justice will be ours.
I think we need to discuss better ways of dealing with troll-ish posters
It seems often we are getting sucked into yelling matches with trolls which sucks away some of the fun these threads can have. It would be better if we had a plan which allowed us to encourage them to change their trolling ways but did not feed the trolls with attention that makes them continue their actions.
There's nothing you can really do short of banning to discourage a troll from posting.
I truly wanted to help Jamkel at first, but I’ve got no sympathy for these people any longer. It’s been a while since we’ve had a true troll, so this was actually somewhat entertaining for me.
Yes, I've certainly reached that point of frustration
And if this game wasn’t a complete blowout in our favor, I’d definitely be quicker to agree. I certainly won’t be feeding the trolls as much next time around.
I’ve had it happen to me several times before and refreshing has worked for me. It must just what you said before about the speed of the thread tonight.
This whole scoring thing is becoming passé
Torrid - May 21, 2010
REGRESSION TO THE MEAN MAKES MY DICK HARD
craig3410 - May 21, 2010
I WANT MORE RUNS!
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Okay, so seattlebruin was right.
The last game thread was excellent.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
And that man was so mean too!
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
Let's make this one better!
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Do good game threads come from scoring runs or do scoring runs come from good game threads?
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
I'd go with the former.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I win!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Zen meditation doesn't seem very Christian.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
He's going New Age.
svart aske - May 21, 2010
Punching Reporters does!
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
Where are my chi crystals!!!!!
blueside714 - May 21, 2010
Mike Sweeney stole them.
Also not very Christian, I should add.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Hahaha we've scored 13 fucking runs
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
If only we could have spread them over 5 of our one run losses instead.
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
By the fourth inning!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
And it didn't take a week!
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
We've only had 4 innings? Holy crap.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
We've got 5 more innings of this, goddamn
Alto - May 21, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK MIKE SWEENEY HIT ANOTHER ONE? I MISSED IT
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
MIKE SWEENEY IS LEADING OUR TEAM IN HOME RUNS
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
This is a bit like 'own goals' being Man United's second highest scorer this season.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I hope they don't regress all the way in one game...
let’s spread the love out to four or five :-)
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
Don't worry it doesn't work that way
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
I don't care. I want runs. As many runs as possible.
I wan’t the umps to end the game early to prevent the San Diego from committing seppuku.
stredarts - May 21, 2010
The worst part of blowouts is the not scoring or the not getting hits after scoring all our runs early.
JLC - May 21, 2010

Whoopsadoodle.
Thanks :)
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
No problem!
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
That caption got me pretty good. Nice one.
melenious - May 21, 2010
Ichiro's had an at-bat in four straight innings.
Cablinasian - May 21, 2010
Padding his stats
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
*Sarcasm : )
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
He's so selfish...
;-)
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
What was that game show where they made contestants stick their head to a bat and then spin around?
That’s what it looks like what Mike Sweeney is getting ready to do.
Janic - May 21, 2010
Yeah, Adrian Gonzalez is pretty good.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Don't throw him strikes
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
Adrian "I can go Oppo" Gonzalez
Jesus, dude just keeps pushing it
scottykimberly - May 21, 2010
Why do I have a smile on my face during a game?
Feels awkward.
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
So Lee chose a good day to be human.
svart aske - May 21, 2010
No kidding
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Oh my god this game is awesome
Scrupio - May 21, 2010
I'm so cheesed right now.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010

Cliff Lee
“SEND ME ANOTHER ONE”
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
He makes me so smiley.
melenious - May 21, 2010
There was a gift for you in the OT
by the way
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
BAHAHAHA. That's awesome!
melenious - May 21, 2010
You're not at the game?
I think that’s why he is pitching sub standard for him. He doesn’t feel your good vibes in person.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
So true.
I know, I’m a bit disappointed in myself but I gotta be up before 6 tomorrow. Yes, yes Cliff would be worth it, I’m a terrible human being.
melenious - May 21, 2010
One more for Kermit!
CapSea - May 21, 2010
Brad Penny has more homers than Griffey.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Carlos Gomez has 3 more homers than Griffey.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Griffey and I have the same number of home runs this season.
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
This game is single handedly reducing the value of a win.
Dammit.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
Reducing the value of runs
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Wins is wins.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Even worse!
CapSea - May 21, 2010
See you don't need defense when you can mash
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
Sweeney should play shortstop.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
I can't believe its only the 5th.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
We scored 136 runs coming into tonight.
And 13 through 4 tonight. In 4 innings we had nearly 10% of our runs for the season coming in. I’m still trying to figure out how to think about this.
SethGrandpa - May 21, 2010
Okay, I clearly just can't watch the Mariners this season.
I go out to get Subway; come back and they have 13 runs.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Sweeney hit two home runs today!
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
What did you get?
It better have had bacon on it, because there’s no other way that sandwich will be satisfying.
Drew_D - May 21, 2010
No bacon, but it did have pepperoni.
Subway’s bacon is always sortof limp and sad.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Their pepperoni is solid
kkobers - May 21, 2010
Liquid pepperoni is disgusting.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
I have to stop for a while
This is a prety nice way to start my hiatus.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
MC Hammer is coming to Seattle. (radio ad)
hahahahaha. That’s awesome. I almost want to go just to see if he still wears the poofy pants.
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
He doesn't :(
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
EQC I believe.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
You sure it's not Snoqualmie?
WE COME AGAIN
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
The asian prince guy came to Emerald Queen Casino.
w00tah - May 21, 2010
Even with the mustache I have a hard time beliving this is a man.
Willie Mays Haze - May 21, 2010
He's like an asian unicorn.
w00tah - May 21, 2010
I demand an explanation.
melenious - May 21, 2010
Unicorn = Mystical Creature
w00tah - May 21, 2010
He has a slight resemblance to Adrian Gonzalez.
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
Let's Go Figlet Let's Go.
Oink Oink.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
It worked!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Figlet is the best nickname
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
We have him for 4 years and I love the nickname so I'm trying really hard to get it to catch on.
I’ll stop overdoing it soon.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
He starts hitting and the havoc on the basepaths I'll have opportunities to carry the flag for you
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
I don't want to post the Figlet picture too much either
but I am tempted to do it a lot.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
Oink!
The Awesomest - May 21, 2010
Jose Lopez is the only Mariners without a hit.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Well this is surprising.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Way to understand how plural nouns work, jackass
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
When I threaten to stab you this time, you have actual reason for concern.
There’s a knife right over there.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
I live on the other side of the country
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
That's a knife.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Yeah Figgers!
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
So why's this guy still pitching?
The Awesomest - May 21, 2010
Mop-up.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
Why waste all your pitchers in a game you're probably not going to win.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
Their starter left like two innings ago
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
May as well not use up the rest of the bullpen when you don't have to.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
David Eckstein throws like a girl!
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
13 hits is a season best.
This offense is terrible. Just terrible.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
Wooti!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Funk Walk!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
We've had innings of 7 and 5 runs.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
SHHHHHH Don't jinx us. We may not have innings like this again for another month.
Jamkel - May 21, 2010
Rally!
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Oh my god!
They are actually afraid of our DH!
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
feels weird.
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Maybe some day he will draw an intentional walk!
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
The Car Fax Car Fox?
Diediediediediediedie
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Get this: Sweendog actually has a .268 average
He’s almost looking like a ….gasp…real DH!
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Look at his OPS
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Hat trick right now. here it comes
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Can I get a bomb job x3?
Tyler is a G - May 21, 2010
Wow, this guy throws fat pitches too.
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
No.
Stop cell phone waving.
Jesus Jones - May 21, 2010
A called strike on Sweeney??
What the hell is going on today!!!!!!
Mariners121212 - May 21, 2010
Okay now I'm just confused.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
Robert - May 21, 2010
MIKE FUCKING SWEENEY
6RBI
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Figlet!
This is for you, CapSea
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Spring Training!
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
The Sweendog Six!
Alto - May 21, 2010
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
BrianL - May 21, 2010
MVP!
melenious - May 21, 2010
GOD. NO.
melenious - May 21, 2010
YES!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Sweeners scores the Figlet!
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
SWEENDOG!
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Mike's postgame interview is going to be unbearable.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
UNBEARABLY ADORABLE
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Spoilers: its all because of Griffey
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
"I was powered by Griffey"
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Maybe we should just grind Griffey into a fine powder, suspend it in saline, and inject it right into every player's bloodstream.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Would that violate the drug policy?
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
It's all about the love for Griffey.
He came out last night and showed us how to win a tight game. I wanted to open up the floodgates for him.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
.
msb - May 21, 2010
I love emo Sweeney
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Jeez, it is still just the 5th?
msb - May 21, 2010
Sweeney is outscoring the Padres by himself.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
Some hitters have nice looking swings
Sweeney looks like he’s just swinging as hard as possible trying to kill the ball.
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
He seriously looks like a damn 12 year old when he swings
JLC - May 21, 2010
I always thought Branyan looked like that
And then he killed his own back
kkobers - May 21, 2010
Come on Loafie!
Everybody is doing it.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
Zombies possess superhuman strength, right?
JLC - May 21, 2010
Awesome Laofie!
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
LOAFIE YOU SUCK!
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
At least he didn't GIDP
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Ha! The Rangers only scored two runs today. Pathetic.
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
Gameday got my hopes up.
It said in play runs, on a fastball up. I want the hat trick Mike!
Mariners121212 - May 21, 2010
Plenty of time yet
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
true maybe he can tie cameron's record
Mariners121212 - May 21, 2010
Speaking of records
We are so topping that Texas 30-3 Baltimore game tonight.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Please capitalise. Thanks!
melenious - May 21, 2010
Very true.
I’m thinking 46. Sound good to you guys?
Mariners121212 - May 21, 2010
Finally someone doesn't take everything all person.
Kudos
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
personal
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
So Sweeney has nearly bested Griffey's production for the year in one game.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Loafie is just saving his dingers for close games.
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
Milton!
<3
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Milton's having a decent night too
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Yup!
3 singles is nothing to sneeze at, especially with this offense.
Willie Mays Haze - May 21, 2010
MB!
melenious - May 21, 2010
What's this? This feeling? Is it...joy! Oh god, it's joy! It burns!
JAH - May 21, 2010
Wakamatsu should walk over to the Padres dugout and apologize.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
"I'm sorry... I swear, I had no idea we could score this many runs!"
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
I love interleague play.
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
Wait until we play the Cardinals :(
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Paper tigers them.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Better yet, who we get to face in interleague play this go-round.
We get the Padres 6 times, Cubs 3 times, Reds 3 times, the Brewers 3 times, and the Cardinals 3 times. That’s going to be nice.
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
Texas gets the Astros 6 times!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Sweeney 6 RBI's today; That's just one shy of Griffey all year ;-)
It is also just about 1/3 of all the RBI’s the Sweeney/Griffey DH tandem has produced all season.
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
Holy shit we're only in the fifth.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Seriously
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Lopez has not gotten a hit.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
Correct.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
How the fuck are we still scoring runs?
The blowout is already over with
JLC - May 21, 2010
Hvordan mærkeligt .... Jeg ser på baseball game, og jeg er glad. Er der noget galt?
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Yeah, pretty much.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Ooops. That wasn't supposed to be in THIS box.
But yea. The sentiment’s there ;)
[Har du taler dansk?]
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Danish?
Robert - May 21, 2010
Yup. Wrong box. My bad.
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Hey good news Matthew I finally figured out what Danish looks like.
Robert - May 21, 2010
Cream cheese, little bits of apple in there what's so hard about it
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
This is crazy.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Why is Mike Carp pitching for the Padres?
Janic - May 21, 2010
How about another bomBARDment?
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
They're just showing off now.
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
Normally I would say put that kid in the lineup.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Maybe we should put that little kid in.....
Why not
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
That kid is frightening.
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
He sees dead people.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
We have now tied the Twins for lead in runs scored today.
stredarts - May 21, 2010
Well that kid has a future as an axe murderer
JLC - May 21, 2010
That kid had cold, unfeeling eyes and terrified me.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I suddenly realized that he would make an incredible rally .gif
JLC - May 21, 2010
Anyone else think its time for Wak to put in Langerhans or Saunders for MB to save his knees?
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
God yes.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Lefty strike?
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
Catcher comedy!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
What's funny is that under normal circumstances the baseball team that is winning by 11 will go to its reserves.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
I bet Bradley is pulled for Saunders before long.
Maybe even Langerhans for Ichiro.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
If Saunders goes in for Bradley, who would be backup catcher?
CapSea - May 21, 2010
Unless I'm mistaken, Ichiro, Lopez, and Figgins have all played every inning of the year so far.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
One of those things is not like the other.
I don’t think we have anyone on the bench that could sub adequately for any of the infielders.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
I want to see Ichiro play shortstop.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Yes, make that happen.
Someone tell Matthew to get on it.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS HOW THE FUCK DID WE SCORE 14 RUNS?
Benne - May 21, 2010
15
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Two words
MIKE SWEENEY!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
15 RUNS!
stredarts - May 21, 2010
*15
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
answer: Griffey
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Yup. Just ask Sweendog.
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
SINCE WHEN DID 2010 SWEENEY AND 2002 SWEENEY SWICH PLACES?
AND WHY COULDN’T THEY HAVE DONE THIS EARLIER?
Benne - May 21, 2010
Apparently every game should be live blogged
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
Oh!!
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Take notes, Wak.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
HAHAHAHAHA FUCK YOU HAIRSTON
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Oh, that's hilarious.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
This game is now complete.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Whoa Jerry Hairston is flipping out
JLC - May 21, 2010
GO HAIRSTON GO
Alto - May 21, 2010
OH SHIT THE PADRES ARE GONNA BE FIRED UP NOW
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Hariston should mellow out and be like Milton Bradley.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
THIS GAME HAS EVERYTHING
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
Hairston needs a chill pill.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
Why?
Then he wouldn’t have had that gem.
CapSea - May 21, 2010
It was pretty entertaining.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
I loved it.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
I tried to get my wife to drive up to tonight's game
She said no. Damn it
kkobers - May 21, 2010
I've got a wild hunch he isn't going to be watching the rest of the game real closely Rick Rizzs
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
Really??? When you are down by 11??? Really?
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
The man has a point, and it's probably better to get tossed from a decided game than one that is still close
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Also, there's another stupid Hairston just waiting to take his place.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Both good points
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
This game rocks.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Hairston realizes that this game is going to go on forever so he just wants to get back into the clubhouse a little earlier.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Veteran presence right there
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
Meanwhile the A's lit up Zito
Interleage!
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
15 runs on 15 hits!
blueside714 - May 21, 2010
Cliff Lee
71% strikes tonight.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
CRIFFF REEEEEEEEEE
melenious - May 21, 2010
I think I have a Cliffy
Seeing him smile in the dugout gives me a happy in the pants.
Sutiyo - May 21, 2010
Guy is garbage...
haha
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
I'll challenge the person who said that to a fist fight
Oh wait…
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
hahahahahahaha
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Tony Gwynn Jr. is wearing his father's pants.
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
I think we're cooling off a little.
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
I don't know, Ichiro is due for a double.
stredarts - May 21, 2010
Griffey should pinch hit for Sweeney before Sweeney's back locks up.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
After weeks of wishing the Mariners would cut Sweeney, this is weird to read.
But I couldn’t agree more.
schismatix - May 21, 2010
Put Griffey in center field!
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
I want to see Griffey at Shortstop......
I have no reason
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Can't be much worse than Tui...
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Actually it could...
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
I would hope it would be
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Just to clarify
I wasn’t being serious here.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
So how would you define the ratio of what caused tonight?
Was it more our bats actually awakening and taking advantage or LeBlanc and Ramos monumentally imploding?
blueside714 - May 21, 2010
5 Rabbits : 3 Lincoln Logs, roughly.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Good Process, Good Outcome.
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
Regression on both sides.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
Have you seen the bright blue stars in the morning sky?
Was it more of a greenish red hue or a black and gold one?
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
I hope for the former, but my head's telling me the latter.
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
We always dominate inter-league play?
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
The motivation of playing against our hated interleague rivals
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Baseball!
Things happen
Gihyou - May 21, 2010
I haven't watched or listened to the Mariners since the middle of the eighth yesterday.
Robert - May 21, 2010
Me neither
Gihyou - May 21, 2010
I just turned it on at the start of this inning!
Robert - May 21, 2010
And now we suck
104!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
I did not, because I'm irrationally terrified I will ruin it
Gihyou - May 21, 2010
GOD. I WILL NEVER GET TIRED OF CLIFF COMING OUT OF THE DUGOUT WITH A QUICKNESS.
NEVER. EVER. EVER.
melenious - May 21, 2010
SPELL CRIFF CORRECTLY
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
SPELL CORRECTRY CORRECTRY
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
SPERR CORRECTRY
JBell523 - May 21, 2010
THANKS, JBERR523
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I love hustlers... especially when they are damn fine players.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
This games picked up some speed.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
HE WORKS FAST.
melenious - May 21, 2010
Cliff Lee started pitching more like Cliff Lee
And the M’s started hitting more like the M’s
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
More like the Yankees
bluemax - May 21, 2010
Shhhhhhhhh
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Oh shit it happens to Bard too!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
*Bald
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
So I was away from the game when the M's losing 2-0.
I come back expecting that they’d lost or were about to lose. And then I see the 15-4 score and Sweeney’s night so far. What
Coach Owens - May 21, 2010
Hey, Coach is here!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
And Cliff Lee's loaded the bases
COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Shit happens.
JLProck - May 21, 2010
I work as an assistant to a Coach Owens.
I don’t think that guy would be here, though.
Jesus Jones - May 21, 2010
Shit happens
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Rally time!
ThundaPC - May 21, 2010
Why is Bradley still in this game?
If he hurts his knees playing in a blowout I’m going to be displeased.
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
He hurts his knees arguing with umpires.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Based on a sample size of one game I'm convinced Adrian Gonzalez is a terrible fit for this ballpark.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Yeah, he should have had at least two home runs instead of doubles.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
He has more hits tonight than our 1B had all last week
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
Adrian Gonzalez can kind of hit a baseball
I think we should just walk him.
hawkfanadam - May 21, 2010
Well at least Wak can't bring Sean White in
JLC - May 21, 2010
This would be an appropriate time to use him!
BrianL - May 21, 2010
I don't know, Sean White is pretty bad.
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
So I picked a great game to miss the first half of. SHIT.
So when did our offense turn into the Yankees?
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Since Sweeney turned into Babe Ruth.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Babe Ruth would get his arse handed to him by this Padres team.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
He can pitch as well?!
So old dogs CAN learn new tricks!
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
I'm not comfortable with this ten run lead.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Yeah I don't think I've ever felt like this with the M's up by 9...
bomdal - May 21, 2010
You don't remember that Cleveland game in 2001 then.
stredarts - May 21, 2010
We don't speak of that.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
DON'T TALK ABOUT IT
kennerdoloman - May 21, 2010
NO-HITTER?!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Only a jinx if Sims says it.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
No. No I don't
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
I meant I don't think I've ever felt how I feel right now with this type of lead.
You just stirred up some bad memories though…
bomdal - May 21, 2010
Fuck Jolbert Cabrera
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
FUCK THE INDIANS
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
OK, let's take Cliff Lee out now
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Thank god that bounced over the fence
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Pull Lee already, what the fuck
Alto - May 21, 2010
Cliff Lee just gave up 6 runs in 7 innings and we're winning.
wut
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Good thing Cliff had one of his "bad" outings tonight then.
Ender15 - May 21, 2010
Gooooooood
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Hairston's ejection is rallying the Padres.
You can thank Griffey for that one too.
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
Um, I just got home and checked in on the game.
What the HECK is going on!! Sweeney has 4 hits and 6 RBIs!?
Cliff Lee is bad and we are still crushing them?
ARock - May 21, 2010
Sweeney is channeling 1995 Griffey
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
1995 Griffey wasn't that great
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Welcome to Bizarroland

Robert - May 21, 2010
Gobble a meat dagger.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
It would be funny!
Robert - May 21, 2010
It's going to happen
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Of course it is
and I will feel nothing.
krb - May 21, 2010
Ugh.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Such as insane comeback could only happen to the best Mariners team ever.
ARock - May 21, 2010
Best team ever*
Robert - May 21, 2010
Fuck Jolbert Cabrera
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
Fuck Arthur Rhodes
Robert - May 21, 2010
Fuck John Halama.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Ever notice that "Fuck Halama" sounds like "Fuck a llama"?
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
Fuuuuuuuuuuck
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
OMG! GET SOME OUTS!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
No chatspeak please.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Late
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Not liking this.
Why can’t we just have a blowout.
Ender15 - May 21, 2010
Because Mariners
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
So we could lose this game.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Sorry about chat speak
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Nice to see Colome still sucks.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
We've given up 4 runs in the few minutes since I started watching.
I should probably turn it off.
ARock - May 21, 2010
JESUS CHRIST JESUS SUCKS!! DFA HIS ASS ALREADY!!!
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Jesus does not Save
Colome, exactly what we expected
ambrosia2112 - May 21, 2010
HE WAS OUT
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Hey there's a crowd at Safeco today.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Friday giveaway night
Robert - May 21, 2010
Beach towel night!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
My favorite is when they attach the words Little League to the game and they automagically sell 30k plus everytime
Robert - May 21, 2010
Kids are dumb.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Parents are dumber
Robert - May 21, 2010
But magic!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
And they attach that word pretty much every sunday
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
Mariners fans are so fucking stupid.
Robert - May 21, 2010
And they've grown very quiet.
msb - May 21, 2010
I wonder if they wrote losmariners.com on the backstop to rub it into Felix on how stupid he is.
Robert - May 21, 2010
And yet you would still suck his dick
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
I would take it up the ass with a t-rex tipped redwood if that was what he asked of me.
Robert - May 21, 2010
OUT!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Okay score more runs guys.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
That's the spirit!
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Let's make it an even 20
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Hey look everybody, we're still leading!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Damn you Mariners. We're ahead by 7 runs and I'm getting really nervous now.
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
Before the inning we were ahead by 11 runs :(
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
We have fifteen runs and we're giving away rally fries.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
They should be just 'fries' at this point
There’s no rally consideration present any longer.
Gihyou - May 21, 2010
It's almost like they're just giving away fries to whomever begs the most
JLC - May 21, 2010
Some LL'er should make a "really good" rally fries sign
and on the back put something on the back of the sign saying that rally fries are the worst thing ever. Then when you win, flip it over and justice will be ours.
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
It should just be a huge middle finger.
Then you take the fries, slam them on the ground, stomping them repeatedly while laughing manically the whole time.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
I like this idea.
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
I'd probably stuff handfuls of them in my mouth and then flip the sign around so it says "HEY LOOK BLOWERS SEEFOOD"
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Bahahahaha
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
I HOPE YOU CHOKE
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
GOD I FUCKING HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE RALLY FUCK FRIES!!!
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
I hate the fact that we only see Rally Fries signs anymore.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
They made her hold the rally fries for another minute while they waved at the camera
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
You don't need rally fries you dickass
Alto - May 21, 2010
Cliff Lee picked one helluva night to suck.
Cliff even your intuition is top notch!
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Rally Fries with a 7 run lead.
WOW
Heydude - May 21, 2010
MIKE!!!
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Gutz strikes out. Proof rally fries are pointless.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Did Guti just take three sliders down the middle?
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Last one was way outside
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Oh was it?
My bad, gameday was messing with me
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
He was distracted by the mass distribution of rally fries in the stands.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
The third strike was way outside.
schismatix - May 21, 2010
C'mon Loafie
Don’t be the only guy not to get a hit.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Sweeney: hack hack hack hack hack
Consider it regression.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
The magic has ended.
Mighty Sweeney has struck out.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
I blame the rally fries
Crystal for DH - May 21, 2010
Every negative action that happents to the Mariners can be blamed on either the rally fries or Rob Johnson.
This is fact.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
But every positive action is because of Griffey.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
That is a fact
If you think it’s opinion, Sweeney will challenge you to a fist fight
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Well his ass is large enough to have it's own gravitational pull.
I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean but it felt appropriate to say here.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
.
msb - May 21, 2010
There is no joy in Seattle, for mighty Sweeney has struck out.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Attention Potatoes, says Jeff
I like it.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Me too, that should be the new name.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
It's hard to score runs when you're not on base.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
Man.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Wow, hell of a catch by Denorfia.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
Yes.
Jesus Jones - May 21, 2010
Awwwwwwwwwwwww, fuck off Denorfia
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Damn
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
Uh Denorfia what the fuck man
Alto - May 21, 2010
Aww Loafie :(
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Lame.
Ender15 - May 21, 2010
No way
C-Nage - May 21, 2010
Hahahahaha
JLC - May 21, 2010
Shit! That was a good catch. Hairston wouldn't've caught it.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Poor Lopez :(
The Awesomest - May 21, 2010
Jeez Denorfia, it's not you guys are gonna win. Such a buzzkill.
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
That looked like he couldn't have hit it harder
Bring the weights back please
Crystal for DH - May 21, 2010
If he had hit it harder, nothing much would've changed.
The angle of the ball off the bat would influence whether it makes it over the wall.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
The equipment is irrelevant when it never gets used.
I can see Lopez and Griffey grinding out early morning workouts. Really, I can.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
WE COME AGAIN
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
Loafie pulling the ball hard isn't a bad thing.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
WE COME AGAIN
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
And to think I was happy I have MLB.TV and can't watch that commercial
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Don't worry, it will be brought up every single time it's televised until 3 months after it's dead meme'd.
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
We come again.
We won again.
Jesus Jones - May 21, 2010
Don't count your chickens before they hatch
Robert - May 21, 2010
2001. Never forget
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
That was a bad bad game.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Definitely one of the least enjoyable M's games I've ever watched
bomdal - May 21, 2010
Jolbert Cabrera!
I Lick Squirrels - May 21, 2010
Just completing the lyric from the Snoqualmie song.
I’m just as terrified as you are.
Jesus Jones - May 21, 2010
Offense!
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
So big
But so appropriate
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
I'm not sure I want to know why he's wearing a blue bull's head instead of a cup
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Paul Bunyan!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Has to be a Paul Bunyan reference.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Yes
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Large but somehow fittingly so.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Sorry on the size.
I put 300 width instead of height.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
I think that somehow, LL will make it through your horrible accidental transgression
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
I dunno...
;-)
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
I regret posting this.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
This whole subthread is going to set a flagging record.
Brian Floyd - May 21, 2010
I've done worse on my own.
Robert - May 21, 2010
Jeff's distracted by his liveblog
Boy is he going to love the mod dashboard.
Brian Floyd - May 21, 2010
*Face Palm*
Doh!
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Ah crap I forgot to flag anything
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
It's not too late!
Brian Floyd - May 21, 2010
Oh I'm flagging, believe you me mister
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
You shouldn't. The gif was a bit large but still awesome. The nonsense above isn't your doing.
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
Apparently on my way home from work I crossed over into the mirror universe.
There is no other explanation for the M’s leading 15-8 after two Sweeney homeruns and Cliff Lee allowing 8 runs in 6.1 innings.
Vatinius - May 21, 2010
Technically Jesus gave up the last two.
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Dam you Jesus
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
I want him to become a closer someday.
Vatinius - May 21, 2010
Jesus Saves!
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
We still have an inning and a half to go?
Sheesh.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
Fuck off, Colome.
kennerdoloman - May 21, 2010
FUCK DAVID ECKSTEIN
Punkhazard - May 21, 2010
Disturbing
JLC - May 21, 2010
I'll pass
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Oh joy. A Gon.
Ender15 - May 21, 2010
Gonzalez is up? Uh oh.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
So Colome really doesn't have any fucking idea where he's throwing his pitches, does he?
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Wow, Colome sucks chode.
kennerdoloman - May 21, 2010
Stop fucking shit up, fuckheads
JLC - May 21, 2010
Blarghle, don't use League here.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
YES, PUT LEAGUE IN
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
So this is the guy we can't afford to loose through the waiver wire?
Huh.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Oh good, Brandon League is up.
Jackle Mackle - May 21, 2010
Highlight of his career.
Brian Floyd - May 21, 2010
Rob Johnson lets that one go all the way to the backstop.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Well that was OK.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Phew.
kennerdoloman - May 21, 2010
Thank you Jesus.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
I see what you did there
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
It's funny that the Padres would have to score 8 runs with 1.1 innings left and I'm still nervous
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
SEE WAK, THIS IS A SITUATION WHERE IT WOULD BE GOOD TO PUT WHITE IN
NOT TO USE ONE OF YOUR BEST RELIEVERS IN A LOW LEVERAGE SITUATION!!
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
I'm just glad his favorite toy was taken away.
I can start to like him again maybe, particularly if Sweeney continues to decide it’s 2002 again.
hiskeyd - May 21, 2010
Wait, his favorite toy?
Explain please.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
I think he means Sean White.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
Oh that's right, I totally forgot he was sent down to Tacoma.
Whoopsadoodle
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
'Wak's favourite toy' refers to his seeming infatuation with Sean White
When Sean White got sent down, that toy was taken away.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
The vibrator
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
So is Jesus Colome not bad?
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
He is certainly not good.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
He seems pretty bad.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
No
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
Depends what you mean by bad
Actually no it does not. He’s bad
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
Well, Boardgame's average has certainly been helped by this game...
Rachmaninoff - May 21, 2010
Today would have been a good day to get Saunders some ABs.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Even if you want to keep Bradley in to help him readjust to regular playing time
you could give Ichiro a few innings off since he hasn’t had any all season.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Everytime you guys start acting up when the mods are away I get one step closer to being Modded.
Robert - May 21, 2010
I would be okay with that.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
Is this suppose to encourage or discourage shenanigans?
Torrid - May 21, 2010
I would be an incredibly responsible mod who only randomly banned 3 particular posters.
Robert - May 21, 2010
So yeah, Josh Bard is pretty good
Punkhazard - May 21, 2010
Josh Bard is all kinds of awesome today.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
Not the greatest defense in the world
But he’s not Rob Johnson, so that’s definitely something
JLC - May 21, 2010
It's certainly saying that's a Major League Baseball player.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Rob Johnson made me lower my standards.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
Yesterday too!
Boz86 - May 21, 2010
Josh Bard is fantastic.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Josh Bard has sturdy underpinnings.
msb - May 21, 2010
I like your way of saying it best!
Torrid - May 21, 2010
His undercarriage is good?
msb has a crush?
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
He's solidly built, and the high socks rather give him Thome Legs.
msb - May 21, 2010
It's all that time he spent at Tacoma with Alonzo.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Remember the Josh Wilsonamo.
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
Josh Bard has won me over.
He can stay.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Three quick outs please.
I’m falling asleep.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Your wish is their command.
msb - May 21, 2010
Why use League?
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Wee, Saunders!
Brian Floyd - May 21, 2010
Why are we using Brandon League?
BrianL - May 21, 2010
He is the only one who can be trusted with a 7 run lead
wetzelcoal - May 21, 2010
Is there a reason why Aardsma isn't being used?
Are they trying to keep League warm? Aardsma still reeling from the last loss? When was the last time he pitched?
ambrosia2112 - May 21, 2010
Wednesday.
msb - May 21, 2010
They have a lead and I imagine they'd like to keep it.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Because tomorrow is Ian Snell.
And we’ll see relievers galore.
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Snell...
Yeah, I forgot about that?
ambrosia2112 - May 21, 2010
I don't know, did you?
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Maybe? It's dark here. That was supposed to be a statement.
Not a question.
ambrosia2112 - May 21, 2010

E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Somebody post it please!
Slow Country - May 21, 2010
No postgame interview on mlb.tv. Aw well.
E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
Interviewing Milton right now.
seattle_since_81 - May 21, 2010
Almost over.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
One more out, let's finish this game before the game thread explodes.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
Too late.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Wow, so this gamethread got fucked fast.
Too bad. It was going so well.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Weeeeeeee.
Ender15 - May 21, 2010

wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Party? Fun? Mariners? Over?
I love Niehaus
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Good work Hawaiian!
ignacio - May 21, 2010
There we go! Good game! Been fun watching, everyone! (for the most part anyway)
Winning streak!
Allen Wu - May 21, 2010
I wish the Rangers would lose though
Griffin Cooper - May 21, 2010
Look what Junior started, Brad?
Really?
Torrid - May 21, 2010
Alonzo Powell!
I’m gonna pretend this is all thanks to him.
ignacio - May 21, 2010

wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
VICTORY!

E-Lizz - May 21, 2010
MILTON INTERVIEW!
BrianL - May 21, 2010
THUMBS UP!
BrianL - May 21, 2010
C'mon flash that beautiful smile
Alto - May 21, 2010
And a thumbs up!
msb - May 21, 2010
2 wins in a row!
svart aske - May 21, 2010
That's what the kids call a "winning streak."
Jesus Jones - May 21, 2010
End this with a smile Milton!
Big Jared - May 21, 2010
He does not disappoint!
Torrid - May 21, 2010
Milton's so cool!
ignacio - May 21, 2010
Milton Bradley's Ipod Playlist is to blame, I love it.
Heydude - May 21, 2010
I love Milton
bomdal - May 21, 2010
Don't feed the trolls, people.
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Beat me to it.
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
If you don't feed the trolls, the mods will have an easier job
Maybe that will be enough incentive to stop egging them on.
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
A fine mess you've gotten us into!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Shouldn't a done that, he's just a boy!
abender20 - May 21, 2010
Sweeney: I performed well because of Griffey.
Milton: I performed well because of my iPod playlist.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Guns N' Roses!
Alto - May 21, 2010
Breaking news from Brad Adam
Milton listens to Guns & Roses.
Maury Povich - May 21, 2010
I think we need to discuss better ways of dealing with troll-ish posters
It seems often we are getting sucked into yelling matches with trolls which sucks away some of the fun these threads can have. It would be better if we had a plan which allowed us to encourage them to change their trolling ways but did not feed the trolls with attention that makes them continue their actions.
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
Flag them.
Brian Floyd - May 21, 2010
Flag and don't respond.
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
There's nothing you can really do short of banning to discourage a troll from posting.
I truly wanted to help Jamkel at first, but I’ve got no sympathy for these people any longer. It’s been a while since we’ve had a true troll, so this was actually somewhat entertaining for me.
JLC - May 21, 2010
If you stop talking to them it helps at least
Instead of causing a 1000 comment clusterfuck. I just think there is easier ways. I don’t mind but it just seems boring.
If you guys enjoy fighting with trolls then I guess its ok if you keep doing what you are doing but it would frustrate me.
Edgar for Pres - May 21, 2010
Yes, I've certainly reached that point of frustration
And if this game wasn’t a complete blowout in our favor, I’d definitely be quicker to agree. I certainly won’t be feeding the trolls as much next time around.
JLC - May 21, 2010
I think that next time we won't be up by ten runs and we will have better things to talk about
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
I think the game being decided early (now that Sean White isn't on the team anyway) was definitely a factor.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
First time I've ever really gotten into it.
Definitely the last. Try everything at least once I guess, but it’s not nearly as much fun as when somebody is standing right there. Back to flags.
Kermit. - May 21, 2010
There isn't really any effective way to deal with trolls unless there is a mod right on the spot.
(I speak from experience, albeit not here)
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
I think we need to make Robert a mod so we have a mod on hand all the time!
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Yes there is.
GIVE ME GUNS
Robert - May 21, 2010
I love Milton.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Well, the trolls won't be around tomorrow, so I'm going to leave now before they ruin the positive mood from tonight's game.
JLC - May 21, 2010
I'm a bad fan and drunk, but I'm 5-0
wooooo.
John Morgan - May 21, 2010
SEA!
Robert - May 21, 2010
HAWKS!
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
ME!
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
BANE!
John Morgan - May 21, 2010
On a scale from 10 to 11 how magnificent is Hasselbeck going to be next year?
Robert - May 21, 2010
10.2
Hasselbeck, the later years.
John Morgan - May 21, 2010
yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Robert - May 21, 2010
No..I'm 4-1
fucking Aardsma.
John Morgan - May 21, 2010
Which game was that?
BrianL - May 21, 2010
White Sox
I told my wife about fly ball and its correlation with HRs, she walked in the kitchen, and he promptly allowed HR, walk, flyball game losing HR.
John Morgan - May 21, 2010
That one was swell!
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Since I'm still a bit of a noob at LL, and this game thread is sortof a disaster anyway
Is there any way to keep the site from jumping to the bottom when someone makes a new comment?
Will unchecking “auto-refresh” do it?
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Shouldn't be doing that - you should just be able to "z" through the comments at leisure
Is it auto-marking new comments as read?
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Not that I know of sadly.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Happens to me sometimes, but not usually
Don’t know a solution, sadly.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
Ah, well. It's not usually a problem unless the thread moves as fast as this one did.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Does refreshing the page help at all?
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
It doesn't seem to, no.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Are you using Chrome?
stredarts - May 21, 2010
Firefox.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
Yeah I use Firefox and it does the same thing.
Haven’t found a solution though
bomdal - May 21, 2010
Well, poop.
I’ve had it happen to me several times before and refreshing has worked for me. It must just what you said before about the speed of the thread tonight.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
This is the most bizarre bLLog war yet.
Robert - May 21, 2010
We're blog warring again?
royalcurve - May 21, 2010
I'm as surprised as you are.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Maybe I should have looked at this thread before asking
royalcurve - May 21, 2010
It's been a clusterfuck
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
I just did a skimming, and it appears you are right.
I’m not sure if I’m glad I missed it or not.
royalcurve - May 21, 2010
It was pretty entertaining, actually.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Read the first part, that was much better.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I was here for most of the first GT.
I just missed the second.
royalcurve - May 21, 2010
Part 1 was wonderful
seattlebruin - May 21, 2010
Ah yes, that most ancient of rivalries between the Seattle Mariners and the Indianapolis Colts. Was only a matter time 'til trouble abrewed
OlSalty - May 21, 2010
I apologize.
Had I known my size mistake was going to cause such and problem I would have triple checked the image tag.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
No one is blamign you.
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
I know.
I feel bad though.
Mariner Melee - May 21, 2010
Who needs Griffey?
Even Sweeney says that we won because of Milton’s iPod.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Yesssssss, they're finally turning on him!
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I think Griffey likely retires after this year.
What are your guys’s thoughts on him?
TheAngelsColts - May 21, 2010
He should have retired after last year.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
He's old, fat, and bad.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
Fuck him for forcing a trade to the Reds.
BrianL - May 21, 2010
The sooner he fucks off the better
He had his storybook ending last season but selfishly came back to stink up the place.
Eyeball Kid - May 21, 2010
I wish he was on the Colts
Gihyou - May 21, 2010
He's more athletic than Peyton Manning!
Jeff Nye - May 21, 2010
He's getting too big to play QB, though
Profiles as more of a tight end these days
Gihyou - May 21, 2010
More of a flabby end, I'd say.
wyte_lightning - May 21, 2010
Thing is, I bet Manning could turn Griffey into a 800 yard, 5 TD receiver.
Jamkel - May 21, 2010
Play nice you guys
Everything got out of hand and just about everyone is to blame. I am disappointed in you.
:(
