I want CC to whomp on Myers like Myers whomps on Ms. Myers.

I once signed a petition to make that the Canadian national anthem.
I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.
So thanks
to whomever gave the tip about TBS’ Hot Corner. My probable upcoming unemployed status thanks you.
Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms.
I dunno', but I want him to hit Myers in the face.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I’d be more excited if they were playing Matt Stairs, but maybe he’ll DH in the world series.

Get him out of there, Sveum
Is this some bizarre plan to drive down his FA market value?
Might as well save him for game 5
He looked gassed on Sunday and much more so today.

Did that ad really just play?
I go to law school. Therefore, I have no life.
Thank you for the thought to whoever temporarily banned me
but it really wasn’t necessary- I got the paper done with 32 minutes to spare

no TV
I’m not sure how me, my parents, and some amount of alumni/whoever funds scholarships are collaboratively paying $40+ thousand a year for me to live in a building that isn’t cable-ready

This is awesome.
Lil’ Wayne is blogging for ESPN and is a Rays fan.
Example:
I close my eyes and I see the Tampa Bay Rays. I’m a big emotion guy. I’m a heart guy, and I think they all play that way. They have nothing to compare this to. Whether they make it to the World Series or not, we’re watching the first winning baseball team Tampa Bay has ever fielded. That right there is always amazing, no matter who the team is. I am actually trying to go down there to catch two games at the end of the week if I can. Maybe sing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” or throw out the first pitch. You never know. You know they need somebody to throw the first pitch. That would be my first major league game. My dream is still to catch one at Fenway, of course.
Lil' Wayne is all kinds of awesome
and the part about his fantasy football team is rather hilarious as well
*decent songs with awesome lyrics.
(I’m ignoring Lollipop and any other “made exclusively for radio” songs.)
His mixtapes are better than his albums, though.
Just find some of his free-styles..one of the best out there.
I fucking hate you Mariners
This mixtape will blow your mind.
Shouldn’t be hard to find on torrent somewhere. It was released for free.
Wow, I just saw the Orlando Cabrera highlights
What the hell?
Stupid one-two punch.
The road to hell is paved with Mariners.

Any portlanders here?
If so, have you been to Belmont Station?
If so, do they ship?
Dodgers!
I should’ve bought tickets. $140 for two tickets isn’t that bad :(
You know what? Fuck you Sports Gods, fuck you.
Ahahahaha!
One of the best Cubs team ever is getting completely dominated by the third worst playoff team in MLB history.
Awesome.
Except that the Dodgers are closer to being a 90 win team on a true talent level.

True. This series continues to drive the point that the postseason has very little meaning in determining who was the best team in any given year.
Still, the Cubs are getting destroyed by the team with the third worst record in playoff history.
If the Dodgers had this lineup the whole year they would not have such an paltry record
9=8
by JI on Oct 2, 2008 9:39 PM PDT up reply actions
Probably not.
And if Erik Bedard had pitched 200 innings, the Mariners wouldn’t of been as bad either.
All that matters is what thw team's talent record is in the here and now
I think the Dodgers are much better than the Brewers

I would argue that in the playoffs, pretty much anything that happened in the regular season doesn't matter.
Considering the sample size.
Yah, when the ball disappears into the darkness before it reaches it's highest point....yah..crushed.
I fucking hate you Mariners
I'm starting to think he was actually really, really tanking it in Boston.

I won't bother speculating on what's going on but for 2 or 3 months now he's been the best hitter on the planet

It hasn't been even particularly close, either.

Albert Pujols is arguably the most underappreciated player in baseball
by Jeff Sullivan on Oct 2, 2008 8:03 PM PDT up reply actions
Yeah, it's insane. And it's not like he plays in a small market for a bad team, either.
I’ve been thinking lately that Youkilis is ridiculously underrated as well.

What about that kid in the Balkans?
I fucking hate you Mariners
The Cubs are down 6-0 so it's probably constant booing
by Jeff Sullivan on Oct 2, 2008 8:00 PM PDT up reply actions
I was wondering the same..but my conclusion is 100 years of boos stick around and rattle through the stands.
I fucking hate you Mariners
I don't have a opinion either way
I just think that if the Dodgers make a deep playoff run, the job is hers to take
She's been towards the top of most people's lists for like five years now.
She’s visible and a known quantity.
J.K.L.
by Aaron Campeau on Oct 2, 2008 8:10 PM PDT up reply actions
She's at least worth a look, no?
She’s put in her time and might be deserving of a shot. People in baseball obviously know her better than we do so I don’t want to speculate as to her capabilities, but she interviewed for the Dodgers job and has been rising through the ranks — and several organizations — for years.
She's easily the most well know AGM (aside from DePo, who is sort of a different case) in baseball, and not just because of her gender.
She has a pretty good reputation. She’s not my first choice, but she’s certainly someone they should interview.

Somehow I don't think Lou is telling him he pitched a good game tonight.
And Cubs fans are giving him a standing ovation despite the fact that they are losing 6-0.
I laughed really hard when I saw this.
I’m tempted to put this on the cubbies forum but that would be trollism.
BOOYA! You got Slurved!
Because God is clearly willing to look out for Cubs fans' best interests
by Jeff Sullivan on Oct 2, 2008 8:56 PM PDT up reply actions
It never ceases to amuse me when I see Cub fans praying
It’s like, dude, it’s not gonna work.

I'm waiting for someone to mention KRods on their fantasy team.
And then laugh at them when they’re banned.

If this game were played 4 years ago
Edmonds would have 2 homers and a great catch to his credit

Former mariners on the dodgers...
Derek Lowe
Larry Bowa (coach)
Rick Honeycott(coach)
Only team in the playoff without a former M is the Angels.

Interesting that they're bringing up the 1995 series when the Mariners were down two games and came back
When they said before that that sort of situation had only happened once before, when the Yankees did it.
Bring back José Cruz Jr!
I......don't.........know.

In the Fark thread about these games, somebody brung up the point that the Cubs need to win the next two games.
Because it wouldn’t be right for them to lose this series in non heartbreaking fashion.
