Is it just me or did yesterday feel an awful lot like this?
Update: I hate us
It sounded nice in New York over the weekend when everyone was making comparisons between Brandon Morrow and Joba Chamberlain of the Yankees. But the Mariners have decided not to work Morrow into the starting rotation by letting him increase his innings as the season progresses.
...McLaren told reporters a short time ago, after Morrow had talked about how he won't be starting, that his outing last night played heavily into that call.
"We're still talking and stuff,'' he said. "I'm not saying we've backed off it. But there's a lot he has to do to get ready to start. We've by no means given up on this season at all. What he can do in that eighth inning like that is special. We just want to get him in that opportunity a lot more here coming up. A lot of times we just use him to get some work in. We'd like to utilize him when the game is on the line.''

It's simple.
1. They still have a shot at the division.
2. Morrow as a one-inning pitcher is better than Morrow as a two- or three-inning pitcher.
???
So, there you have it. At 15 games under .500 and 12 1/2 behind in the division, the M’s say they still have a shot. They feel it’s too early to work towards the future. I know what many of you think. I think their season is done. They disagree. At least, that’s what they’re saying in public. Hard to sell tickets when you’re waving a white flag on May 28.

Moving Morrow to the rotation is a public admission of calling the season quits. No way in hell are they going to do that when there’s still false hope and money to be made.

Family Guy sucks because the writers were never talented to begin with
Simpsons sucks because it’s been for a quadrillion years and every good writer has left (much like SNL). Unless House changes writing staff dramatically, it’ll be fine for another 3 seasons at least.
Besides, House being a formulaic drama means it can basically run forever. See: Law In Order.
My theory is that it was funny because the gags were new
Over the course of 4 years, they gradually ran out of all ideas and the glaring lack of any plot became dominant.
The fuck?
Family Guy has ALWAYS SUCKED.
House has been pretty awesome throughout most of its run.

he gets a pass because he's good
a newbie or a non superstar does this and he’s plunked next time. not saying either is right, but just saying.
I'm not so sure
A lot of guys do this, have done this and will do this. It’s an emotional reaction. I can see someone taking it personally with context, like if the guys have heat from previous actions, but not otherwise.
Well his average is too low for one.
500 homers isn’t what it used to be for two. He’s a terrible fielder for three. He doesn’t even have 2000 hits for four. And, finally, he’s never won an award.

Sadly.
Which means Edgar’s probably doomed.

Well Edgar did have a pretty high
AVG, hit a decent amount of homers, walked a lot, and had a lot of hits.
"I'm out there Jerry, and I'm llllllovin' every minute of it!"
he's a DH
which is enough for the writers to dismiss him
I'm still convinced that baseball renaming the DH award in his honor, basically showed
what they think of Edgar.

There was this kid in High School named Brandon Patrick, that me and my friends pretty much tormented
for a little over 3 years until he moved. My friend stumbled onto his myspace page the other day and he’s one of those furries. It made total sense.

So Furry fetish is the result of years of high school torment?
Huh.
In my day, the high school kids we picked on just grabbed a gun and shot up the school. Sad what today brings… =(

We were convinced for a while that he eventually was going to shoot us.
Turns out he was too much of a pansy.

Homoerotic furry comics were popular in certain groups within my high school field corps band.
It’s a fucked up fetish.
Holy crap

Your announcers
I’m a Red Sox fan watching this game on mlb.tv, and thus hearing your announcers because its a Seattle home game, and I must say you guys have the best local announcers of anybody. They’re articulate, personable, and knowledgeable about the game. They should seriously get rid of Joe Morgan and Miller and replace them with these guys.

Niehaus and Sims are great
Blowers is terrible.
But I wouldn’t call any of them “knowledgeable”
by JI on May 28, 2008 7:29 PM PDT up reply actions
Let Me Clarify
I didn’t mean knowledgeable about teams or players, which is a major strike against them, but rather I meant knowledgeable about how to play the game and the subtleties of baseball.
by Gnick on May 28, 2008 7:31 PM PDT up reply actions
Well considering that Mike Blowers is an ex player.....

The Samsungs have sync issues at high resolutions with the ATI card, BTW.
My company had to switch out to the NV cards after all sorts of driver problems, at the suggestion of Applecare. It was either that or get the Mac Displays.
New ATI card?
The 2600 or the x1900?

by Scruffy Lefty on May 28, 2008 7:56 PM PDT up reply actions
We had the 1900s
But I still see forum postings about the 2600s as well. When we got another set of Mac Pros this year, we got the NV8800s instead, no probs with Samsung or LG so far, the most common “problem” screens.
