Two outs, SO WHAT?
Just like in 2001.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
But we actually had the sign in 2001
I remember some folks would hang it over the edge of the left field bleachers every time we get 2 outs starting around July if not earlier.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Yup 1995 was the "Refuse to Lose" year.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Yes
Because we sucked, as was usual, until August 1995 when all of a sudden we became awesome.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Of course
Don’t you remember game 5 at the Dome? The day the Mariners earned Seattle’s love in many ways, so awesome.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
What, I can't call the Kingdome
The Dome?
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
You are just yanking my chain aren't you?
Either that or you’re like 11.

He's actually ten.
But very advanced for his age.

Just ignore Matthew.
He’s something of the resident prankster around here, but he means well.

Nothing beats the time I convinced everyone that the Rays were going to be good in 2008.
You fuckers all bought it.
I won money because of this prediction.
I donated part of it to the LL fund, but I think Jeff may have used it to buy a jersey.
There was a one game playoff! Griffy saved saved the season!
I’ll send you the press clippings. It was terribly exciting
It was against the Yankees
So I would have thought you’d remember it, oh well.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Be gentle with Robert.
He’s a little simple and he gets angry when you imply he’s stupid.

I only followed them from 96 to 04 than I became a Sawk fan.
I only watch the Mariners cause I’m living in Seattle.
Oh, shit. Really?
How could I have made such a foolish error!

That was classic.
I never really liked the old tagline.

I disagree.
Today always felt like we were winning.
We are like black people and white people
by Jeff Sullivan on Jul 12, 2009 3:35 PM PDT up reply actions
I disagree...
The way in which we are winning is by using impressive intangibles that have been impressively used as weapons at the most opportune times.
Does your dad know that Rob Johnson sucks
If not, inform him

Oh, I have.
I’ve learned all sorts of things from lurking here this season, and that’s certainly one of them. Unfortunately, he just likes to think up dumb names. His previous try this afternoon was “Metro Magic!” for Franklin.
Can we just refer to him as RMFJ?
I never really liked the old tagline.

Come to get us a 3-1 series win!

"A rub out slider"?
I thought it was illegal to put foreign substances on the baseball for pitching purposes.

I’m just going to keep making the same joke until it gets not funny. Then I will continue until it gets funny again.

I wonder why. It's almost like he's starting to mix in an other pitch, a slower pitch...
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!

Do they make you want to rub one out?
Perhaps that is what Krueger was getting at.

"Called strike three!"
No, Rick. That’s a swing.

That was a sick strikeout pitch
LOVE IT!

This upsets me to no end
Why can’t they just lose?

HEY! BROADCAST TEAM!
THERE’S A FREAKING GAME GOING ON
They were chatting about ERA before that
so it’s better this way.

Okay seriously
WTF is our guy doing on the right?
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Freaky
So THAT’s why we sent him down :-).

Dang Texas carries a lot of pitchers
13 by my count on their 25-man roster.

I hope we don't
That would require Aardsma blowing this save

ARRGHHHHHHHHH, It's Aardsma time!
Let’s rock!

But they couldn't stop Jack or the fans from clapping
And they couldn’t prevent Jack from being scrappy
I've been waiting. I like Scrappy Jack.
Unfortunately it doesn’t have any penis jokes
Maybe there's some room to work in the whole Isle of Man line
With our new 3B and rampant diabetes in the pitching staff
Ok, now for Aardsma heart attack time

with the weird tooth rope thing. Right before the first pitch to Murphy.

I think this strike zone is an inverted W
either that or a strange paralellogram that doesn’t include the inside corner to righties
WIN WIN WIN WIN WIN
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL WAY TO END THE FIRST HALF

And off to the plane!
so does Wak get on the plane first and put on the earphones really quickly, or delay until the last so that he can avoid sitting near Jr?

That's because the Angels won 3/3 and we won 3/4

Man it's fun to watch Gutierrez play in person
It’s also fun to shout “Nippert” many, many times.
