Fuck Willie playing Cf

If this is anybody but Steve Allen, you're stealing my bit.

Can I get a ruling on this?

I think this is a misuse of surprised face.

by Matthew on Jul 25, 2008 3:28 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Isn't that a bit excessive?

Unless it was mainly hidden for being large

I think it's proper use.

Thank you.

I don't get why that was bad?

I mean it was supposed to be a sarcastic surprise face since Willie is starting at center. I realize I must’ve misread JI’s comment.

JI/Robert '08!

My impression.

“Willie starting in CF?” with surprised face jpg = proper use.

JI’s comment reads to me as just general anger that Willie’s starting in CF. Sarcastic surprise there almost seems like it’s related to JI’s anger and not to Willie starting in CF. It’s ambiguous use at best in my opinion.

by Matthew on Jul 25, 2008 3:48 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I thought I saw "Willie starting in CF?" at first

But after review, I figured out I was wrong.

Another point in favor of instant replay.

I can't believe we can't find a replacement level 1B for peanuts.

Holy mother of god

That lineup….

by OlSalty on Jul 25, 2008 3:34 PM PDT   0 recs

If you think this lineup is bad

I recommend never looking at our lineup ever.

by Jeff on Jul 25, 2008 3:35 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

At least Vidro isn't 4th!

It’s sad that that’s an option

Is it too much to ask

To not play Cairo/Willie/Kenji/Vidro all at once? I’d rather we didn’t play them at all but obviously that’s not going to happen.

There are better alternatives to all of them on the team now, I don’t understand the logic behind this at all (if you can call it that).

by OlSalty on Jul 25, 2008 3:50 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I hate these bullshit platoons

we’re better off seeing of Reed/Clement can handle LHP, especially easier LHPs like Parrish.

If this is anybody but Steve Allen, you're stealing my bit.

by JI on Jul 25, 2008 3:51 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Clement's hurt though

so that one is at least defensible.

by Matthew on Jul 25, 2008 3:57 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Still, even before he was hurt

by JI on Jul 25, 2008 4:00 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

That's why it annoys me as much as it does.

If Reed is useful, it’s a big fucking deal going in to next year. If he’s not, the sooner you know the better.

FanShots are underrated.

So tonight is Brad Penny bobble head night

I wonder if its worth the drive…

I also wonder

if the bobble head comes with a torn shoulder.

the picture of it on MLB.com isn't too bad

doesn’t look as fat as Penny though.

Did he ever get a mini statue of himself?

Is this joke still ok?

I would dream of upsetting someone who doesn’t get this. Do more than six people get this?

Yuni's getting a bobblehead in August.

That’s why we can’t trade him.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

There are so many better options on this team than starting Batista

If the concern with RRS is that he’ll make the bullpen work because he’s still being stretched out, how does starting Batista help? He’s just going to leave after the 3rd.

1. What form? From last year?

2. Be consistent?
3. If it was three I’d guess a hydra had attacked the stadium but I’m clueless now

Wait, John Parrish.... THAT John Parrish?!?!

Forget looking at the lineup, I just puked in my mouth looking at the starters.

Batista, Cairo and Vidro starting

It’s gonna be like watching a train wreak in slow motion
