We Still Love You J.J.

by Trent on Jul 25, 2007 9:07 PM PDT in Seattle Mariners News, Regular

Even the best closers of all-time have had a miserable day at the office. Just don't make a habit of it.

Oh, and it's high time someone passes a letter to Guillen informing him that Mike Scioscia's BFF is Raul Ibanez and let nature take it's course. Yes, he had a lucky day at the plate, but his inability to cover ground in LF cost the M's an early run and potentially/probably ruined the J.J. streak.

And yes, I know that's far fetched, but Raul's an easy target.

I feel like I'm in Baseball Hell

Everyone else's closer gets to blow games that lead to a potential win or loss at the worst.

Us. We get to have a blown save en route to our six straight loss.

Man, if I wasn't such a nice guy I would be going around smashing things.

Raul is an easy target

since he can't run fast enough to get away

Now all the people who say we need bullpen help

will point to the last two games.

ADRIAN BELTRE HURTS THIS TEAM WITH HIS OUTLANDISH CONTRACT WHEN COMPARED WITH SEXSON'S REASONABLE ONE.

Richie and Ibanez have been performing! Worst possible outcome to this week

I fucking hate you Mariners

I totally get it!

Turn back the clock night is coming up and they want to have everyone remember what it was like back then...just a piss poor team that found ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

I fucking hate you Mariners

I refuse to believe that happened.

I didn't watch the game, ergo it didn't happen.

JJ is still perfect in my eyes.

These pretzels....are making me thirsty!

It was so ridiculously sudden

One man on, and it was one pitch that just hung over the heart of the plate. BAM. We could not believe it and I don't think JJ could either.

by Gomez on Jul 25, 2007 11:12 PM PDT up reply actions

It's weird,

I actually thought he was going to blow it. I thought he'd give up a dink ground ball that found a hole, and that would be the blown save, and we'd all be pissed. Then he K'd Laird and I was like, ok nevermind we got this.

Then, Fuck.

CALL UP ADAM JONES. NOW

It's Sims fault.

Jinxed us AGAIN with his little "JJ is quickly on his way to the franchise saves record.

Let's go back to the sinking ship

without Scrappy. I can't remember when we changed to the Space Needle, but I feel like it was on Friday or Saturday. Then we changed it, but not to the sinking ship by itself.

Or, you know, to help the team, they could actually call up Adam Jones.

Nahh, we'll just shave our pubes for the next game for good luck

CALL UP ADAM JONES. NOW
