5/18: Open Game Thread
San Diego Padres @ Seattle Mariners
No, Felix. Not this time. You have to earn your sunshine and lollipops.
Shawn Estes makes me think of Russ Ortiz. Russ Ortiz makes me think of Chris Brock. Chris Brock makes me think of Mark Gardner. Mark Gardner makes me think of William Van Landingham. William Van Landingham makes me think of Kirk Rueter. Kirk Rueter makes me think of ears.

Huge game for the Flyers
in a half hour or so. We get Timmonen back and if we can win Coburn will be back for Game 6.

It's part blood clot and part Philly curse.
When I heard he was out I couldn’t believe it. Who misses most of the ECF because of something that happened 2 games ago and he didn’t even miss a game in the semis…

Sean Estes makes me think of visiting Hawaii in 1995
I bought a video game magazine to read on the flight back to Seattle, and in that issue they (for some reason) had an interview with Estes. I remember being upset that this player who was clearly a star had been drafted by the Mariners but was now a Giant.
I wasn’t very bright when I was twelve.
