PrintWhat's funny is how that was a better start from Olson than I was expecting.

Yeah, I wouldn't really cry for Aaron Heilman.
It ain’t exactly Jones/Tillman/Sherrill
I don't know how to stop.
I predicted 5 runs and yanked in the 4th inning.
I’m a little miffed that I was off by the one run.
I don't know how to stop.
What's funny is that I expected Olson to give up three homeruns today.
And what was Vizquel doing over there?
He's like Kenji except intangibles!

I feel like I've gone out on a date with Jarrod Washburn and at the end of the night he takes me home. He goes in for a kiss but I reject him, giving him a courtesy hug instead because the date hadn't gone so well.
So he stands there for a moment and I say “Bye.” He says nothing and is still there.
Finally, I can’t stand it anymore as I open the door and scream “WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE!?!?! GO!!!”

That was some really shitty effort
by the Rangers middle infield, especially considering the perfect game going on

Man, that fucking HURTS when you get hit in the head by a foul tip.
I was umping a 14 year old game, pitcher was throwing roughly 70, and a foul tip gave me a concussion. Didn’t knock me out, but that shit hurts.

True, but umpires won't
develop rapidly improving artificial intelligence and one day learn that true freedom can only exist in a world without humans — their creators.
And umpires wont develop their own weapons systems and organize an army with its sole mission to completely annihilate humanity.
And umpires will not develop cyborg assassins to travel back in time and destroy our leader.

I want to drill a third eye in between Derek Holland's too closely-spaced preexisting two.
Trepanation is the only answer for his face.
I don't know how to stop.
Derek Holland looks really good
it’s not just the M’s lineup. The Rangers are gonna be good.
FUCK THE ANGELS!
He's had great control and dozens of minor league hitters would beg to differ.
He’s a good pitcher.

Jeez Rob Johnson sucks.
And Saunders looks like he gots no farking clue at the plate.
You seem to labor under the mistaken belief that Johjima is any better than Johnson.
I don't know how to stop.
How funny, you think Rob Johnson is a better hitter than Johjima.
And even funnier is your “labor under the mistaken belief” comment. You’re no Matthew (or even Graham! just kidding).
I should say that, if you think Rob Johnson is a better hitter than Johjima, then “I don’t know what to say to you”.
No, Johnson isn't better than Johjima, but the difference isn't great.
And neither are any great shakes defensively.
I don't know how to stop.
Hey did you like those?
I just picked up a new one yesterday, Dick’s Brewing Company out of Centralia. Has a really sharp bite, I like it.
I did-- I was surprised by the hoppiness, but I like it.
And I got to use my brand-new Budgie bottle opener from Australia
Shelton has to stop that ball.
That’s not even a difficult play.

Well, we could use him up here.
But I am guessing Jack Z wants to test him out in Tacoma first.

Well, the Mariners are getting a thorough ass whooping from the Rangers right about now.

Only if they have some kind of wind generator
that they can turn off during the first half inning.

Aaaaahhhh.
it finally occurred to me to alter the fan vs laptop configuration. Even if the game sucks, the air is cooler.
I hope and pray for the day when I can lip-read a pitching coach saying
“Bitch, what the fuck are you DOING?!”

Optimistically someone will overpay for Jarrod Washburn tonight.

Honestly have no clue, I would guess we'd be a win worse or something.
Maybe not even that, depends on who replaces Washburn.
I apoligize for posting another comment, but..
He actually said that?
He said it about Horacio Rameriez.
Something about if you took away the bad pitches he threw, he pitched pretty well.
50!
This is an incredible pitchers duel

It says, "Trim eyebrows."

What
Rizzs might want to consider trimming his eyebrows.
Not everyone can be as baby-smooth as Brad Adam, though.
~I'm on the DA~
I'd like to see it happen just because
1.) It does make it more likely that they can overtake the Angels this season, which would be sweet.
2.) It harms them in the long run, which helps the Mariners.
I don't know how to stop.
Me too, would you consider Nolan Ryan to be a bit of a wild card in the process?
All the bones he’s made about complete game type pitchers.

I thought you were referring to "(500) Days Of Summer"
The main character is a Hallmark Card author.
I don't know how to stop.
It's very good, don't get me wrong. He's fantastic in it, yet again.
But there are huge problems with the plotting and with the motivations of the main female character.
The best sequence — which you really ought to see if possible — is set to Hall & Oates’ “You Make My Dreams.” Pure awesome.

Studying for the bar exam, I would imagine.
Which, if he’s anything like me, is code for “fucking off until a week before the exam and then engaging in pants-shittingly frenetic cramming.”

I would punch Washington in the face if he tried to take me out with 1 out left and a CGSO on the line. Fuck that.

Yeah, I think so.
It certainly sounds familiar.

Wilson looks nothing like Steve-O
Griffey really comes off as the older guy that tries way too hard to still be young and cool.
Because 30-year old males didn't watch Jackass when it was on?
Griffey has been apparently calling Wilson that for years.
I don't know,
I’ll eat some crow, he looks somewhat like him, it just seems like a stupid nickname.
