Because we want to discuss the game right now not getting Brignac.
You got slurved!
The M's are why the suicide rates are so high in the PNW and Japan.
We're going to win a world series before then
So I don’t care if it is the end of the world, I’ll be able to die happy anyway

But then it's like,
now what? Where do I go from here?
I would spend the entire offseason bragging about how I was still a huge fan even when they sucked
Then I would hope for a repeat
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
All the sudden
knowing stories about 2008 would be cool.
I'm fine with the Mayan prophecy so long as we win the WS before then

I know.
I can’t bear another loss. This team seems so ready to compete and just…. doesn’t.
Wake up dude, it's still yesterday
The game hasn’t even started yet
I'm gonna go ahead and turn the radio off now
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
And then a hit by pitch haha what the fuck has happened to this team
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
We need the pitcher to chrage to plate it's the onyl time they're ever gonna cross it this game.

No kidding, he should have punched the batter in the back of the neck

I would have brained him with his bat to start things off.
That would have the added benefit of removing Rob Johnson from the game of baseball forever.
I don't know how to stop.

Rob Johnson
stopping hits from happening. I’m not surprised.
by SeattExPat on Jul 25, 2009 2:58 PM PDT up reply actions 2 recs
Just what Rizzs and Niehaus said, they said he calmed the batter down
Walked him up the line to first or something, I tuned out when they said the bullpens turned around
Thank goodness.
For a second there, I thought our team was alive.
What just happened?
I’m out of market. All gameday says is “on field delay.”
DAMMIT ROB JOHNSON YOU STOPPED OUR ONLY SPARK!

WHERE HAVE YOU GONE RICHIE SEXSON
A LONELY NATION TURNS ITS EYES TO YOU.
WOO-WOO-WOO.
I don't know how to stop.
Nothing happened.
The bullpens showed up to make an appearance and everybody decided that their spots on the bench were covered with urine or something.
That’s it.

Whats the little white thing that flies past the mound?
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
I thought of that, but that wouldn't really make sense would it?
My Mariners blog - SodoMojo Twitter Feed, Fuck the fucking Angels!
Yeah,
going into a fight you want the mouthpiece in.
Football players take their helmets off?
I’m assuming catchers wear a mouthpiece, spitting it out before a fight would be kind of dumb. Unless he was trying to yell or something. It might not be a mouthpiece. Never noticed the white flying object until you mentioned it.
Yeah!
Through that helmet you lanky fuck!
There is a point in sports fighting where it ceases to be about the game and become assault two.
SEXSON HAD NO REASON TO GO OUT THERE, THE PITCH WASN'T NEAR HIM.
OH GOD, GAMEDAY EVIDENCE!

At the Kingdome a million years ago, in the 2nd game of a post-strike doubleheader,
I witnessed Rod Carew charge the mound from 1st base, resulting in a massive bench-clearing brawl. It was awesome.
by lemonverbena on Jul 25, 2009 3:07 PM PDT up reply actions
This seems like a much better way to go.
If the pitcher isn’t facing you, they’ll be much slower to react.

Speaking of which
You know who Toronto’s starting pitchers will be when they come to Safeco next week? Romero, Rzpczynsk, and Halladay.

This is the type of game where, if it was a 'soccer' game, would spark a riot.

Our ability to make non descript medicore pitchers look like Walter Johnson is almost surreal.

We're being shutout by Clevelands version of Hyphen
And no, I did not look up any stats first. GTE of apathy
Rob Johnson should clearly be batting before Michael Saunders

Oops that was probably rhetorical. My apologies Brett

At least I understand why Fox has the exclusive broadcast: they're showing an actual MLB baseball game
Jimmy Rollins with a grand slam, Victorino with a solo shot on the next pitch
this is so sad im not capitalizing or using correct punctuation
You got slurved!

Hahaha Simms says the bullpen reached the infield dirt, and the ump raised his hands and waived them back.
And away they went, awesome. Would have liked to see that
Garret Olson = lockdown pitcher

A fan in Philly was shining a laser pointer into the Cardinals' batters eyes
They’ve stopped the game for a witch hunt in the first-base stands
They've got idiots to spare in Philadelphia

Someone in SeaTac has been shining lasers into the eyes of pilots so this isn't really a Philadelphia issue

Idiocy knows no geographical boundaries, I agree
But Philly certainly leads on a per-capita basis
by lemonverbena on Jul 25, 2009 3:53 PM PDT up reply actions
Jason Schmidt and another pitcher got in trouble a few years back for shining one at the fans ...
who didn’t have a fast ball coming at them
Didn't the NFL have a lot of problems with that when those tiny keychain sized pointers were available?
I don’t think they make them anymore, I’m not sure
c'mon
By my shrewd math calculations, the Mariners have now been outscored 19-0 over the last 15 innings, at home, by a last-place team (whoops, check that, the Indians’ recent success against Seattle has vaulted them past Kansas City for the dubious distinction of being the AL’s worst club). It isn’t quite like losing 11 in a row or 15 of 17 or anything, but man, when this franchise crashes and burns, it leaves nothing identifiable behind.

Oh wait, no one is listening on the radio and no tv
The manager was tossed with the pitcher
Slipped through the cracks with the charge of the Spartans from the outfield I guess
They usually announce those details
That was really funny, I think he likes those helmets
Not like he really loves them, they’re just weird and it gives him something to laugh about. I’m projecting

At least it makes Jack’s job much easier. I feel like the next two months are going to seem empty, though.

Hey, we still get to watch Felix, we get to watch Saunders and we might get to watch a shiny new SS.
And we aren’t going to be Godawful like last year, so there’s that.

Why the fuck is he arguing? Who gives a flying fuck

Fan interference, I think Cleveland was arguing about whether or not the runner passed 2nd base
Since he did it allowed him to score. Something like that anyway

So let me get this straight,
we are going to lose 10-1 and Saunders got his first ML home run robbed?
If gameday is to believe, we will lose 10-2
