Mariners forgot to take their sexual enhancers and have substandard wood.

Not a good sign when you tune in and Dave & Rick are reading Kauffman Field highlights from the media guide.
Jarrod Washburn ought to be tossing a lot of people underneath the bus today.

Seriously though, after sucking so much last year, he's pitching fantastically and he's going to take a loss today that was beyond his control.
I suppose it’s karmic revenge in a way, but still it’s got to rankle.

There's a "Mariners/invasion from sea" joke in here for the historically-minded wag who's clever enough.

Inults about the M's should hurt more from you, but they don't.

I think it's clear at this point which team his heart really lies with.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
I do find it amusing that Eyebrows comments far more here than at Halos Heaven, though.
I suppose the caliber of the conversation has something to do with that.

sb, it's time to give up your love of Loafie
That son of a bitch isn’t worth your affection.
Ever since his "bone her?" remark I've been disgusted with him

Wait, you do realize that Fogel = LFOJL, right?
Or is there some further in-joke/recent development that I have (characteristically) missed out on?
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
You're mistaken
LFOJL was butthol

I'm pretty sure this is just typical LL misinformation
Like the time the rumor got passed around that Jeff Sullivan was really Christina Kahrl’s post-op sex-change name.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Because she went from female to male back again to female.
Dammit, I need to get my scurrilous rumors right.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Except that one is true.

CONFIRMED!

Might as well come out and admit it now: I used to post under the name ASUBoyd

Who was the guy whose avatar was a photo of himself in a douchey brown & yellow cap?
I always confuse ASUBoyd with that guy. They were equally irritating.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Bingo.
I love the fact that you, the Angels fan, know this.
Never leave, never change, Eyebrows. You’re a highly valued member here.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Eyebrows is a hero
we established this a while ago
Also, I was responsible for that whole "Burn The Tree" schtick.
My finest moment.

OTF:
Any ideas for a beer (not an IPA) to try tonight when I get back from my exam?
Has to be available at QFC.
On topics: stupid Lopey
I need to burn through the awful beer in my fridge so I can justify a BevMo run.
Next time I have a barbecue, I need to remind people to not bring Bud Light and Amstel Light. The Amstel I can tolerate, the Bud will be thrown at cars.
My favorite is throwing a little pan on the back of the BBQ with some Bud or whatever in it.
Simmer some polish sausages in there while everything else is going on, covers all the people that show up late.
I made beer cheese soup
with some decent ale.
It was one of the most awful things I’ve ever cooked.
Paris Hilton, Burberry plaid, reality TV, mullets, Zima, Dubya, and the Sonics being sold to Oklahoma City. - Yahoo Answer results for "7 Signs of the Apocalypse"
I have two cases of Coors and Miller in my house and I have no idea what to do with it
my roommates don’t/can’t drink and I’m sure as fuck not drinking that stuff
Use the Bud Light to teach immigrants how to speak English
so that they can engage in hilarious hijinks in attempting to pick up women.
/Cut to Cambodian man saying “Bood light”
It will probably taste like rainwater.
I’ve tasted Bud Light once, it was disgusting.
You can’t buy Amstel Light here in Holland, kind of weird since it’s a Dutch beer.
Yeah I wanted to be frustrated in a different manner.

Cruz's Gameday photo suggests that he descended from the heavens to strike out Mariners.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
On the plus side, Gutz had a terrific at bat:
Took called strike one, laid off a ball, called strike two, ball two, fouled off two pitches in the strike zone, then lined out. He didn’t swing at one ball.
Gutierrez has been one of the bright spots this year
if people valued defense correctly, he’s a borderline All-Star
I was thinking Ichiro might not be the automatic Mariners All-Star this year.
Just for a couple days, now I have my doubts.
For a guy who hasn't hit for shit over the last few games, his at-bats have been marvelous.
Which is more than enough to get him off the hook relative to the rest of these assholes.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Yay lets hit everyone

I hate to take for Jeff but I guess he's busy at work
Long story short he got a attachement to John Olerud while listening to the M’s on Armed Forces Radio while serving in the national guard

I chose to root for Seattle because I lived in Washington DC, didn't have a local team at the time, and thought it would be cute to root for "the other Washington"
There have been stupider criteria upon which to make such decisions, I’m sure, but not many.
Then when the Nats started exchanging players with the M’s I really got heavily back into following them once again.

Why do the Mariners suck so fucking bad in May every year

Never seen that play successful before this year.
Now we’ve seen it twice.

We're going to get shutout and swept by the Kansas City Royals
right after we got swept by the Texas Rangers.
Fuck All.
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
YEEEEEHAAAAAAAA
Dave “Ringing single by Mike Sweeney!” I love that guy
Because he only hit well when it didn't matter for the Royals while he was there.

Does that mean we get ARod back?

Confused ?????

I hate you Mariners. You hurt my feelings
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
So I totally thought Ichiro was going to get a hit there.

A blog-thingy about the Mariners and stuff.
Not clutch unless it's for Japan.
I fucking hate you Mariners
I need a new team..I don't like this one.
I fucking hate you Mariners
So after last season the mariners had a team meeting and decided that
the only way they could hurt us more would be to start the season well and get our hopes up, then crash and burn
Mariners!
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!

It's all HowChuck's fault becuase they decided not to spend the money on Abreu.
so sayeth the caller.
Abreu would have been perfect for this team
34 hits, 29 of which have been singles, and zero home runs.
But then again he does draw a few walks.
And he had so much interest in coming here.
Oh, wait.

OOh, even better.
The guy who thinks Wakamatsu missed an opportunity today with Beltre struggling— on the bench was a man who starred at third base for the Kansas City Royals … why not put Mike Sweeney at third and give Beltre a break??
