if you didn't see colors

wouldn’t you be unable to see?

by Matthew on May 1, 2008 4:56 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Not necessarily.

His cones could fail, leaving him unable to distinguish between different frequencies of light, but his rods – which detect only differences in amplitude – might still work fine.

He’d see only light & dark, aka black & white.

Therefore, he must be lying.

laughing at Beltre’s point.

They've been laughing at him all series

and he’s still the best player on the field..

At least we're kind of making Byrd work.

Sort of.

I don't get the jinxing thing.

Throughout my childhood, it was something you don’t say to the pitcher. I don’t give a shit if an announcer or a fan says it. And it’s not like there has ever, ever in history been a no-hitter when no one in the universe said anything while it was happening. And I’ve heard announcers “jinx” pitchers before, and they still go onto throw the no-hitter.

Sorry, I’m not trying to get overly logical about something that’s exactly the opposite, but I guess I think it’s fine for fans and announcers to talk about it. Just not within earshot of the pitcher.

by Teej on May 1, 2008 5:13 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

There's nothing to get

thats the whole thing about it… it makes no sense, but players and fans are superstitious as hell

by thenatural on May 1, 2008 5:14 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah, I hear you.

I just can’t stand when people get screamed at for mentioning it while watching on TV 2,000 miles away from where it’s happening.

by Teej on May 1, 2008 5:15 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Don't worry

I assume the Indians announcers will be more than happy to oblige

I Gotta Secret with Miguel Batista?

Sounds like stranger danger to me.

Have you done anything more substantial in your life?

if yes, then maybe… I would assume, however, that the answer is no

King Batista?

nevermind. double. no hitter broken up!

by AtomicGarden on May 1, 2008 5:04 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Even that double was boring

Some people cut themselves. I root for the Mariners.

Was that as good

As Niehaus made it sound?

I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.

Not sure

But it was a lot better than Sims called it.

by AtomicGarden on May 1, 2008 5:07 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

It was really good

Ichiro makes it look easy tho…

by thenatural on May 1, 2008 5:08 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

chances of us coming back from 0-1 deficit?

Holy shit....

Ichiro saves two runs in a single inning. And NICE tag by Clement as well

by OlSalty on May 1, 2008 5:11 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Love it

Mariners hit 10 base hits, score nothing.

Opponents hit 2 hits, score runs.

Very annoying the clutchness of everyone but us.

Clement, I was under the impression you weren’t opposed to taking pitches.
