My guess:
He’s only playing well because he’s trying to match Brenden Morrow’s performance

Also, you guys should start the "Hire Paul DePodesta" campaign.

They should hire their own bloggers, that's a decent staff right there.

Royals vs Marlins
This game is more exciting then whatever the M’s have in store
Royals rock
Mariners suck

In all seriousness
The amount of excitement provided by a Rays game blows our Ms games out of the water. There’s no contest.

I'm going to explain this
It’s like Stairway to Heaven.
I an vacuum Stairway is a great great song, but the overhype, overexposure, and the title “The Greatest Song Ever!” have turned it into a cliche.

It's been off the air for 10 years
It’s not relevant enough to make for a good meme anymore.
MST3K is the only real exception to that rule, it’s relevance will never die.

Not that the last two seasons were bad per say
But the show BIG! and less clever. It’s kinda sad that most people got to know it through it’s weakest episodes.

Never going back to Baker’s blog comment section again. It has become the PI Sports forum.

My final mistake was posting Beltre's LD% and BABIP
to show that he’s been damn unlucky so far this season.
And the casual fans descended upon me like locusts…

I am going to petition to make an LL entrance exam
it will consist of two questions:
(1) What is your opinion of Adrian Beltre as a Mariner?
(2) What is your objective as an LL commenter?
I will receive each person’s answers to those questions and give the user a thumbs up or thumbs down.
It’ll never be implemented but it’s a nice fantasy.

I like this idea.
1) Adrian Beltre is an underrated ballplayer who puts up fantastic numbers despite the fact he plays in a ballpark that is death to right-handed batters.
2) To seek the Holy Grail.

2. To become closer to God (asterisk)
