bring back plunking rules
make is a mans game again.
and stop chasing batters when they get upset
Just let them say their peace unless it’s over the line.
Every sport is getting way to touchy with these things
Anyways, Jeff.
The only reason I was happy the Rays lost was because Jackson shut us out when we faced him. Otherwise, I cheer for the Rays.

the Ms are just paying homage to the New York baseball Knickerbockers. the inventors of the modern rules of baseball.
thats nice of them.

Or maybe the next two series.

Might as well take the rest of the season off.
And hey, since they’re just gonna keep trading their prospects away for eternal mediocrity, just stop cheering for the M’s altogether. You’re lucky you’re a fan of the best team in baseball.
Cheeseburgers are delicious.
Yeah but they have to give those runs back with interest, right?
You can’t score more than one per inning. Right?

Such hope back then.
When I went to bed on Opening Day I was in a phenomenal mood

Then we lost on the first Felix day of the year.
And that mood disappeared, right?
Cheeseburgers are delicious.
Nick Johnson's current OBP: .409
Even though he’s only batting .216 right now. He’s just that unlucky on balls in play right now.
Don’t trade for him though…a hustler like Jim Bowden would end up with the M’s entire farm given that he’s negotiating with Bavasi.

Richie got one high near his head and he went ballistic
rushed the mound, threw his helmet at gabbard, and pounced on him. Then the benches cleared and Felix got into the middle of it and went nuts too
We beaned two guys, then someone threw a high fastball at Richie
Then Richie charged the mound, threw his helmet at the pithcer and a very emotional clusterfuck ensued.
Good times.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:37 PM PDT up reply actions
That was enough to flip back and watch the replay
Throwing his helmet was just like when Sweeney charged Jeff Weaver.
Also, Manny once charged the mound once on a Roger Clemens pitch up and nowhere close to him too.
That was entertaining
But Sexson is definitely at fault here
Felix
He’s used up…..........Next Pitch Should Be In Laird’s Ocipital LOBE!
Injury Report: Gerald Laird
Reason: Death
Length:Season
Suck It! If you don't know what IT is, then I can't help you.
Sexson is fricking crazy, that wasn't THAT close
Not enough to warrant attack
OMG they are making out

Charge the mound Cairo, make yourself useful.
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
In other words...
It wasn’t close to Richie’s head at all, he was just looking for the closest excuse to start a brawl and “ignite some fire”... or some lame baseball cliche’.

Props to Richie
most of the time, the charger ends up looking like a fool. Richie landed some serious hurt on Gabbard.
A 6'8" guy pussing out and throwing his helmet is tough?
Wow…you must be a basketball fan.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:43 PM PDT up reply actions
Throwing his helmet was.
He could have at least punched the guy or done something less girly. He’s the biggest guy on the team! Give me a break.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:45 PM PDT up reply actions
throwing your helmet is not pussing out
it’s smart fighting. He had a potential weapon, he used it, and then bowled into the guy.
No, it's not.
If you use that logic he’s dumb for throwing the bat. A helmet is not an effective weapon, it’s light plastic. He should have tackled the guy or punched him or something. As it stands he bounced his helmet off of him then kind of ran into him. Not very impressive.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:49 PM PDT up reply actions
yes, he clearly should have attacked with the bat.
Look, you’re wrong here.
No I'm not, I'm pointing out a flaw in your logic
your’e saying it’s smart to use a weapon in a fist fight. I’m saying by your logic he should have used the bat.
If you’re starting a fistfight, you use fists, not helmets or whatever. To me, watching this a few times on the DVR, it looked like he was pissed and then ran out and kind of didn’t know what to do so he threw his helmet instead of actually fighting.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:51 PM PDT up reply actions
Using bat=attempted murder.
Throwing helmet=he shields his face and is mostly defenseless.
by Aaron Campeau on May 8, 2008 8:53 PM PDT up reply actions
Throwing his helmet is bush league
you don’t throw shit at people in a fist fight, you just don’t. I don’t know if you’ve ever actually been in a fight, but it’s just not done unless you’re a hobo flicking a cigarette at someone, or a punk in a bar throwing glasses and shit. I’m a bouncer, I see and get in a lot of fights, if you throw something at someone in a fight you’re going to get a ton of people on you fucking you up because it’s just not done.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:55 PM PDT up reply actions
And I'm sure if he didn't throw his helmet
the rest of the Rangers would have let him and Kason just talk it out.
Christ.
Look, I'm just saying I think it's a weak ass move
It looked stupid, it was pointless and I don’t like it. Whatever justifications we’re using it’s a matter of opinion, and you’re not just automatically right because your opinion differs from mine and i’m not right because mine differs from yours.
I don’t recall a lot of mound charging prescient, I’m just saying I thought it was weak. I don’t see why you have to be an ass about it.
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 9:00 PM PDT up reply actions
Because pissed off guys charging the mound are thinking rationally
Yes, he should have been aware of this. Uh huh.
That's not my logic because I'm not fucking retarded.
You use whatever you can in a fight, but a bat is not one of them because you’ll land your ass in jail. How many baseball brawls do you see where they actually land a punch?
Nolan FUCKING Ryan!
That’s how it’s done!
by Smegmalicious on May 8, 2008 8:56 PM PDT up reply actions
I bet if Robin Ventura had somehow distracted Nolan Ryan he would have been more succesful in that fight...
But how would be have CAUSED such a distraction?

Seriously though Richie is 6'9 or something ridiculous
If he wants to put the hurt on someone he will
Yeah Sexson is a real badass...
What’s he hitting? 200? 210? Fucking pussy

Richie wins so much from that scenario.
He gets a short vacation, fans like him way more. Money isn’t an issue.

For The Mariners marketing towards family fun
The crowd seemed to love that quite a bit.
Sexton is a

I reckon...
planned move. Sexon looking to ignite something in the team. Good for him!
Either that or he just went bat-sh*t after sucking for so long, and getting booed by home fans.
You could be a part-time model...but you'd probably still have to keep your normal job
Brawl made today's game worth watching.
Thanks Richie!
kind of pathetic and stupid in retrospect, imo
But at the time it was def cool
I completely missed the fight.

Yeah, leaving Felix in is insane.
He’s had shitty control, what if lets a pitch get away and nails another batter? You have another brawl.
Not to mention the obvious part about there being no reason for him to pitch anymore tonight.
I have a feeling if I posted the first pick I found
I would be permanently banned

I respect what Felix is trying to do here...
...he feels the need to go out there and give at least one more inning to help the pen out. I admire his sense of responsibility, but somebody should pat him on the back, thank him for his consideration, and send him to the showers.
FELIX IS PUMPED
I don’t know if he thinks we’re going to score runs or if he just likes striking people out.
Felix still pumped up
me thinks he no likes the rangers

Hey, can somebody tell me what Milton Bradley's involvement with the fight was?
Why was he mixing it up with Gerald Laird? Did he forget for a moment which team he’s on?
Laird was being a fucking retard
and Bradley wasn’t going to stand for it.
trying to defuse it
alternatively, Milton Bradley is batshit insane.
pick your answer.
He was trying to
re-tear his ACL so he could be paid and wouldn’t have to be more embarrassed by playing on the Rangers.
Cheeseburgers are delicious.
2 girs. 1 cup.
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
So I was at the game in 2005 where we finally beat Pedro
Sexson through the ball bucket onto the field after being ejected in the 1st after a K that game.
We beat Pedro with an infield of Willie Bloomquist, Jose Lopez, Mike Morse, and Dave Hansen.
I was photoshopping during the beginning of this game.

but it might have just been letting off some frustration.

"When you throw at someones head you start messing with his career"
