How often does it tell them to drink?

There's a reason we get out cheered by visiting Red Sox and Yankees fans.
And Blue Jay’s fans. Often times at a game it seems like you’re there, trying to root and people wish you’d shut up. Or maybe 25,000 people just happened to walk in to hang out and a baseball game happened.
We need to clone Red about 50,000 times.

If you don't distract them every two minutes they might notice the rats chewing through their achilles tendon's

I think youre misplacing your apostrophe's.

Don't think so....
Achilles tendon’s is possessive in this case so it gets an apostrophe, unless I’m a complete failure at English which is possible.

The tendon isn't the thing doing the possessing.
No apostrophe.

We can't say much.
I have only been to Seattle for six games, and admittedly I have been to around 200 Premier league football matches where the hatred flows freely so I may have bigger expectations … but Seattle fans suck. I’d rather have rats biting my ankles if it meant that I could be passionate about the team I support along with like-minded people. When I was at Safeco I felt like a jerk just for standing up and clapping when Felix had two strikes.
Maybe Safeco’s atmosphere sucking is why we all enjoy this place so much?
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!
Personal M's record: 5-4.

It's part of it for me
I have a hard time having fun at Safeco unless I’m with a large group of friends, because the rest of the crowd is really a buzzkill.

From living in So. Cal..
And having been to probably ~40 Mariner’s/Angel’s games in my life, I can tell you Angel’s fans are only passionate about their team if they are doing well. Going to games even back IN 2002, there would be more (at least noisy) Mariner’s fans than Angel’s fans there. It wasn’t until 2003 after the World Series that they actually started to draw more fans (and of course when they signed Vlad/Guillen/Colon/Escobar before 2004 their popularity around here skyrocketed). I’ve never been to Safeco (Until the 22nd of Sep that is!) so I can’t really comment on Mariner’s fans in general, but I doubt Safeco is as bad as Angel Stadium used to be. Not to mention how un-witty their fans are, the worst I ever get from Angel’s fans in some dumb comment about how much it rains in Seattle, how we must love Starbucks (even though its on every other street corner in LA/OC, and how it must be a long drive to Seattle.
Man, Im really hoping Safeco isn’t all quiet and boring. I don’t expect Fenway or anything but I was actually looking forward to cheering for Seattle along with everyone else since that never happens here, but shoot, everyone makes it sound like how Angel Stadium used to be like.

Yeah, in April 2002 I went to an M's-Angels game at Edison/Angels Stadium
Sat in the RF bleachers, which were half full. The Mariners fans outnumbered the Angels fans, I kid you not.

At least we still are coming to the games...sucking or not
I too came from So. CA and then Northern CA and we don’t have the most enthusiastic fans here in Seattle (and it’s really annoying when Red Sox or Yankees games roll into town and Seattle-ites are rooting for the other team) but at least there ARE fans…
But we are commonly said we are the “nicest” fans…unlike the Red Sox fans etc which probably makes us seem even more nonchalant.
I prefer my SAFECO experiences over anything I got at the Angels or Athletics games. Probably now it would be better. I went to the new Giants stadium and that was nice.

IT WAS MORE LIKE EVERY 30 FUCKING SECONDS
I fell asleep on the train and then on the bus on the way back from Anaheim.

Baseball fans are stupid and need to be told what to do
And I think that explains a lot.

What stadium is Jeff talking about?
I think it is Anaheim. Where last night’s game was played.

Every Two Minutes
We have something to cheer about.
There is nothing in all of baseball more obnoxious than that damn train whistle.

This is the reason I hate it when we play the Angels.

That's called character
Your stadium could use some.

Marlins announcers disagree.
They were beyond enchanted with the train.

Jose Lopez is playing first base today.
Hahahahaha what?
Oh, and Beltre’s thumb surgery is next Thursday (will play the rest of the weekend and that’s it).
Per Larry Stone.

Oh for fucks sake.
…it also provides a chance to evaluate the notion of Lopez as a first-base option down the road — like maybe next year. Lopez will probably play first base frequently the rest of the way.

I'm pretty sure I have a first baseman that can outhit Jose Lopez behind my couch.

There's my answer. Ugh, punch in the gut.
I was just on the GT and rubbing my eyes in confusion.
