Things that broke my patience

Markakis shitting all over that 1st pitch from Hyphen
Daniel Cabrera = 0 walks
Vidro waving at a cankles-high strike three
Richie popping up the 1st, and last pitch he saw in the 9th

I think the generous

strike zone had all the hitters out of sorts.

This team needs a RF that can hit something fierce….. Raul got on and my first thought was … pinch run Willie…... Crap!

They had another Willie on the bench

Proving more that Cairo is a useless asset.

I hear they have a mashing RF in Tacoma

Sadly, a) he has a bad bruise in his leg that still needs to heal up and b) the team isn’t too gung ho to call him up anyway.

by Gomez on Apr 23, 2008 10:12 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Almost every late inning I yelled at Willie "HEY CABRERA SUCKS AT THE STRIKE ZONE TAKE SOME PITCHES!"

The first inning I yelled that to him, he popped out on the first pitch in his next AB.

What the fuck is wrong with this stupid fucking retard fuck team.

It must be like when I play MVP '05

and I want take pitches so badly, I know I need to take pitches, but I can’t help myself and I swing as soon as the ball leaves the pitchers hand and play to god it’s a fastball I can pull. However, I have the game set on easy, and every single pitch is a cockball down the middle, so maybe that’s not the best apology.

So....

How many more days til Felix day?

Yikes

It must have been REALLY bad

It was...it's only a few people..but it jumps out of hand quickly.

I think we need a LL Utah Mining outing to thin out the heard.

I fucking hate you Mariners

Did you hear about the heard*?

This site is slowly diminishing my ability to spell.

I fucking hate you Mariners

Ah I read the thread

Yeah, that was too far. Do we really need direct anal rape references and antisemitism in a game thread? I would say not. If nothing else, it’s trying too hard and playing to shock value, which is silly.

And WTF was with the Ronald McDonald thing? Good lord.

And WTF was with the Ronald McDonald thing?

I had trouble sleeping last night.

LL Newbs ruining it for the veterans

I can start to see where McLaren has a point

So we've been through Warz!?

I’m Lieutenant Kentroyals5

I received purple hearts for the injuries I received upon hearing of the Vidro and Horam trades.

I fucking hate you Mariners

It reminds me of the JJ rally cap commercial

where he advises you to use the rally cap wisely and not to go to it too early. Moderation is the key with JPEGs and GTE. Don’t strain to exercise either.

Me too dude!

I was starting to go mad as the pregame show came on!

Was it down last night too?

I was busy playing Sims and missed the game thread. I didn’t notice it was down until this morning when it took an hour to load the front page, then took a shit when I tried tp read the comments.

I like midgets more than I should.

That is a very perturbed Giant Silva in the postgame interview

Reporter: On a scale of 1 to 10, where would you rate your discomfort level right now.
Silva: I DON’T KNOW.

Fuck the server...fuck management..fuck vidro with a hot dog.

GTE is on an infinite loop since there was no GT. FUCK INFINITE LOOPS!!!

I fucking hate you Mariners

I'm really pissed that Beltre got so unlucky

He absolutely dumped a seventy ton shit on that Sherrill pitch and I was convinced it was at least a double off the bat. Fuck that game. Good thing I didn’t watch most of it.

Also, I’m sure glad we didn’t sign Reed Johnson. Aren’t you, Bavasi? Know what? Fuck you, Bill, I’m voting for you again in the Worse GM poll.

by JLC on Apr 23, 2008 10:20 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Reed Johnson: .339/.415/.393/.808

Willie Bloomquist, Mike Morse, and Brad Wilkerson: suck

by JLC on Apr 23, 2008 10:27 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

And Wlad is like a hemophilica

so he doesn’t work either…lets steel Reed Johnson…And every retarded Mariner fan will think Reed Johnson is Jeremy Reed.

I fucking hate you Mariners

Beltre did make an awesome play in the top of the 9th

Its too bad his efforts go wasted by an M’s loss.

by Fin on Apr 23, 2008 11:18 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Is anyone else impressed with Morrow?

His change and slider seemed eons improved, and he finally dropped that horrible split. If he keeps this up, hitters won’t be able to sit on his fastball like they did last year.

by redwolf75 on Apr 23, 2008 11:18 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yes

Morrow looked good. Plus he was touching 97-98 on the Safeco gun too, which has to be a good sign.

by seattlebruin on Apr 23, 2008 11:22 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I was impressed with him too

The possibility that he could become a good major league starter is much better now. We’ll see if the M’s will ever give him the chance to develop into one though…

by Kevman22 on Apr 23, 2008 11:31 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yes, it was times like yesterday

when all of a sudden I didn’t feel horrible about how good Tim Lincecum is

by seattlebruin on Apr 24, 2008 8:40 AM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Back to minor league stuff.

Where did the designations “A”, “AA” and “AAA” originate? Why aren’t they called something else? Was the “A” originally for amateur or something?

I like midgets more than I should.
