13-14
Funny thing about not having any offense. You never see games like this coming. Red Sox and Yankees fans...I'm pretty sure they go into every game expecting to win, even if they're tied or trailing in the later innings, because they know they're capable of putting a bunch of runs on the board at the drop of a hat. But we don't have that luxury, and so we live in constant fear that regardless of the situation, we may never score again. We've been conditioned to believe that this lineup is woefully inept, and so when they come up with a rally like this to storm out ahead, we're taken completely off guard. And in some respects I think that makes it more fun, more exhilarating. Having justifiably high expectations is cool and all, but the emotional gap between expecting to win and winning is smaller than the emotional gap between expecting to lose and winning, so there's something to be said for being in our position. When the team actually comes through, it feels pretty neat.
King Awesome through 27 games: .309/.409/.553, league-best 20 plays made OOZ, best discipline of his life. He's getting fewer pitches in the zone now than he ever has because pitchers are afraid of him, and pitchers are afraid of him because he's really flipping good. How someone answers the question "has Adrian Beltre been a bust in Seattle?" would be a good litmus test for whether or not the person is worth engaging in conversation. This guy is a hell of a player and absolutely deserving of his nickname. Never leave us, Adrian. We wouldn't be able to take it.
Biggest Contribution: Adrian Beltre, +33.0%
Biggest Suckfest: Kenji Johjima, -23.5%
Most Important AB: Beltre homer, +26.9%
Most Important Pitch: Dellucci single, -22.0%
Total Contribution by Pitcher(s): +20.2%
Total Contribution by Hitters: +27.0%
Total Contribution by Opposition: +2.8%
(What is this chart?)
This calls for a slightly different kind of Recap In Pictures.

Ha that's a good recap of the game.
I am going to have to start using these pics whenever similar situations arise in the future, so you may need to do a similar recap for an M’s loss in the near future.

I think you have to slash vertically not horizontally.
If you slash vertically on the vein, then you could possibly die. If you slash horizontally, you just look emo (definition of emo: stupid). I hope English Mariner (or Jeff) takes note of this.

by Jordan of Boise on Apr 29, 2008 11:21 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
No cause for concern here
Beltre will turn 31 in his first season after his current contract expires, which is exactly the sort of age that the current Front Office levitates towards. I think our prospects for watching King Awesome man the hot corner well into the future are rather promising. Unless Boston decides to take a stab at him. Then we’re buggered.
by Frosty Raptor on Apr 29, 2008 11:41 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Problem is, as Bavasi does
he’ll wait until Beltre’s value is at its peak and THEN extend him when with just an ounce of smarts and/or foresight he could have possibly got Beltre to extend for 3 to 4 years at his current salary.

But while USSM is more of a teacher/parent, LL is more like a big brother or a cool older friend. It’s too bad there are no pics of Dave Cameron floating around, you could make a sweet Dave/Jeff pic.

Good night all.

I spent half an hour on a Picture Story with a Faustian Theme
But then I realized that the story’s conclusion would get me banned, my village razed and my breakfast made out of my dog’s entrails.
So I’ve decided to restrain myself.

I thought maybe it had lost it’s charm.
But by god I think this thread has revived it. We needed this.

Any ladies interested in watching Iron Man on Friday? – 23 (San Diego)
Reply to: pers-662423982@craigslist.org
Date: 2008-04-30, 11:51AM PDT
Hello women,
So I was thinking most people usually read this because either they are bored or just trying to get a laugh. Well this Friday I will be going to watch Iron Man most likely in San Marcos with my friends and I was wondering if someone would like to join me. Here is the catch. The following are some questions that I would like to get answered. The one with the most correct answers gets that ticket. Hey it helps past the time by and also it allows YOU to get to know a little bit about me :) Figured it would be something a little different.
Question 1: What was Thomas Cat’s first name before it was changed to Tom (Tom from Tom and Jerry)
Question 2: What ethnic food is Pho?
Question 3: Who is Jay Buhner?
Question 4: What do you look like? (Free points here :D )
Question 5: What do you like to eat? (Also free points :D )
Thats it. Pretty easy I would think. Also if you are wondering about the picture, I just happen to be a big Seattle Mariners fan (you would understand if you were from Seattle). This just happens to be the best one of me.
