He looks exactly like every guy that's ever been so eager to help you out in the golf course pro shop.
I’ve only been in two, but hey. He looks like both those guys.
That is actually a good call
I’ve been in many. And he is that guy. Which means I can’t really hate him because that was my dream job for a long time in HS and college. Free golf and brainless work? Yes please.

Perhaps there will be a silly player in tonight's game after all

as long as he sits on the mound and tries to make sandcastles he can be as silly as he wants otherwise

Ackley already?
It will be interesting to see someone who has not played many games in CF to play CF.
Apparently if you pitch well you win games
Thank you Bill Kreuger.

apropos of nothing but since this an open game thread and there's no game yet
if you hate Facebook quizzes as much as I do, Greasemonkey has your solution. This is awesome.

I wonder why Johan is so sad...

Because he realizes that after him, there's no good pitchers.
And no bullpen.
I actually bought a Betancourt t-shirt.
I used to know a bitch named Alex White.
He signed with Cleveland one June night.
What in the Wide World of Sports is going on in here! Wheeeeeee first pitch
Yeeeeehaaaaaaa! A new 3 game streak for Ichiro
Don't the drafted guys wind up playing in Everett the rest of the summer?
This new FO gets me kind of excited to watch the minor leagues again.
Which is still BS, I think because then it becomes a GR 2B doesn't it?
That’s an out without the fan.
THIS IS WORSE THAN THE JEFFREY MAIER INCIDENT

Yep that was completely interference
He was way over the fence
Well, okay then.
Haha, suck failure Baltimore fans.
I didn't know they call him out.
Yes!!
I actually bought a Betancourt t-shirt.
Good call.
Endy makes that out if that asshole doesn’t lean out over the fence.
Bye, Jeffie!

Not really
I mean, Endy makes that catch ~90% of the time…if I’m the fan, I try to steal that one every time and hope the umpires don’t notice/are unwilling to overturn the call
I'd rather know a little about a lot than a lot about a little
Ackley would've caught it while punching that guy in the face.

I'd like to see Endy go deep here.
Just to see the fan reaction.
Has anything else been said about Yuni missing BP?
Bye, Jeffie!
Preserved In All His Greatness - R.I.P. The Reignman 1989 to 1997
I think maybe missing voluntary BP was the last straw.
crosses fingers
Bye, Jeffie!

Yuni's in the doghouse and he skipped out on voluntary batting practice?
You’ve sealed your own doom, fuckwad.
I seriously do not understand how anyone could be that clueless
Does Yuni think Cedeno is getting playing time for no reason?
by JLC on Jun 9, 2009 4:57 PM PDT up reply actions
Yuni doesn't show up for voluntary BP after being benched 3 days in a row?
Say hello to Ronny Cedeno, starting SS

The question is what isn't wrong with Mike Morse?
Bye, Jeffie!
Preserved In All His Greatness - R.I.P. The Reignman 1989 to 1997
Mike Morse might have a slightly better bat
but much, much worse defense.
I admit it's hard to conceive
But Mike Morse would be awful

Yuni has more talent, but I'm done with Yuni's...
Lack of patients
Bad attitude
Lazy defense
All around suckness
If Yuni needs more patients then he should look into some advertising for his practice.
Stay away from newspaper. They’re going down the shitter.

That Jake in the Box ad...
is it just me or are they saying “Hey if it is 3am and you are stoned we’ll help you out”. Or am I reading too much into it?
No, I think they are.
In other news, I just finished my 120. Ahhhhhh.
I'm saying this with my hands protecting my face, but...
what’s 120?
Bye, Jeffie!

I'll keep a lookout for it.
If you’re ever in Gresham, OR, go to McMenamin’s and try a Rubinator. Excellent stuff.

He wouldn't be able to get up that fast with his bum knees.
I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.
Don't usually see this
“A Jones continues to bat after dropped foul ball by catcher J Burke.”
I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.
Morrow still can't throw strikes?
Color me shocked.

That’s what I get for not paying attention. I assumed the 3 ball counts were Morrow in.

Do a power search for "bone her?" by user: qrsouther
by .Taylor on Jun 9, 2009 6:06 PM PDT up reply actions
Probably from the similar word "Boner"
Which probably comes from the double entendre of someone making a mistake (The “standard” definition of boner) and the face that a penis is sometimes hard like a bone.

I hate games like this, Rizzs feels the need to fill the silence
After a couple innings my head feels like my wisdom teeth are still growing in there.
At least he's not scouting out little girls like the Angel's announcer.
It's hard to convince people to let you eat them if you're an asshole. - Thingray
Ok that made me laugh and feel uncomfortable at the same time.
Rizzs just over describes everything. There’s probably a really smart way to say that, but that’s what he does. After a bit it’s hard to follow the game, it’s Charlie Browns teacher.
On the other hand
if the A’s pass the Ms, and they fall into fourth, there is less of a chance they decide to stand pat at the deadline….
Sp here we are in the verge of getting to .500 and jumping into the race
and what happens?
We’re getting shutout?
I can’t believe this team.
Do you really believe they're in the race?
With this offense?

I'd rather lose a game 3-2 than 11-7

But if we had good offense we could be winning games 7-3
Our pitching has been fine.
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo
3-2 means at least our pitching & defense did all right.
Albeit, it also means spending the next days full of regret, imagining how we could have won the game.

I’d like to see a “How cool is our farm system” chart; one that a sharp spike after obtaining Ackley.
