5/14: Open Game Thread
Seattle @ Texas
Hi kids!
Welcome to the Uncle Bobo show!
Are you ready to sing?
Come on, let's go!
Billy and his family went on a holiday
They went down to Florida to laugh and dance and play
Bill went in for a swim, he didn't see the harm
But when he came back out again, he was short an arm
'Cause Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Passing the time by ending children's lives
Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp
Billy and his father went out to play some catch
But Billy missed the pass because his arm was unattached
The ball flew past his shoulder and it rolled into the swamp
When he went wading after it his leg became a stump
'Cause Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Passing the time by ending children's lives
Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp
Billy and his father joined a three-legged race
They were tearing up the field, no one could keep the pace
But Billy tripped and did a flip and landed in the muck
He was running out of limbs and also out of luck
'Cause Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Passing the time by ending children's lives
Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp
Billy was all dirty, he really had to wash
But he couldn't use a towel 'cause his limbs had been gnawed off
He went into the water to get all clean and bright
But when his bath was finished he was only half his height
'Cause Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Passing the time by ending children's lives
Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp
Billy's father rolled his wheelchair up upon a hill
He wanted to put Bill where he would not get killed
But he left him on a slope, and into the swamp he rolled
They dragged out his head but there was nothing left below
'Cause Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Rippy the Gator went chomp, chomp, chomp
Passing the time by ending children's lives
Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp
Passing the time by ending children's lives
Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp

okay, here's the thing
if you’re going to post this, and I have no beef with that, can you at least put a title on it so it’s collapsable? Stuff like this showing up would get me fired post-haste.

Agreed...I'm at school and that's not a good thing to have show up in the Library.

it’s just something I’ve noticed more than once (from various people) so I figured it was worth mentioning.

I used to care that I was missing day games by being at work.

I'm the kind of fan the M's covet
because I’ll still pay to go to games, like I’m doing Saturday night, but at this point I don’t feel the need to watch 9 innings of Mariner baseball every day all season long.
And it says something that I’d rather be working than watching the game. I’m not entirely sure what it says, but there we are.

Well, that changes everything then!
I’ll be quitting my job in the next 20 minutes and staking all of my future happiness on Silva and the M’s. What could possibly go wrong?

I'm a contractor
so I can walk out the door in about 5 min if I need to. And judging by Silva’s potential, I NEED TO.

My generation sucks
I grew up with Atari 2600, so all I’m good at is running around mazes eating dots and jumping over swamps with pixilated alligator heads in ‘em. Oh, and destroying asteroids.

Has there ever been a greater game than Pitfall?
The answer to that question is yes. Several. But it’s still a good memory.

It was pretty much the only game I ever obsessed over.

Happy Carlos D-wait.
BTW, Squinty was on KJR this morning. Said they had to keep Cairo around because they have so many slow baserunners.
I guess Squinty and the front office haven’t quite done the slow baserunners=bad defense that can’t get to balls correlation yet.

Are Silva and Padilla the greasiest pitchers in the MLB?
CJ Wilson is pretty greasy too, but not on the same scale as those two.
