League: Aw
Figgins: Think they got sausage? I'd really go for some sausage.
Moore: I saw some.
Figgins: Niiiice

Saunders: There's lemon curd.
Aardsma: I know!
Saunders: I can't believe there's lemon curd! It's like, yessss
Langerhans: Coffee. Now.
Kelley: On its way.
Langerhans: :grunt:
Kelley: No problem.
Me: HEYYYYYYYYY
Powell: So I couldn't sleep last night. Had the worst dream.
Wakamatsu: Yeah?
Powell: Yeah. I was just standing in this field, and it was bright, and completely empty. But I looked up, and then there were lions. Angry lions. Hungry lions. And they started chasing me! They chased me all the way to this river
Wakamatsu: haha
Tuiasosopo: A river!
Powell: I know, right? The water!
Wakamatsu: haha
Powell: So they chased me all the way to this river and I'm like 'okay what do I do,' and I couldn't do anything but jump in. And you know me and swimming.
Wakamatsu: Right?
Me: HEY
Me: SEATTLE MARINERS
Figgins: This is the best sausage.
Felix: :fist bump:
Powell: So I get caught up in the current and I'm floating down the river.
Powell: I'm floating down the river when I see a rock. And I'm thinking, maybe I can get a hold of that rock.
Powell: So I reach out and grab onto the rock. I pull myself out, when I realize it isn't a rock.
Wakamatsu: No.
Saunders: What was it?
Powell: It was a hippopotamus!
Wakamatsu:
Powell: And it was mad.
Wakamatsu: hahahahaha

I am so grateful for this site...
If I wasn’t laughing about this and the Morgan Meme, I would be crying. Thanks for keeping it light…ish.
Anaheim. Fuck 'em.
Funny stuff.
Right now I'm dreaming of Carl Crawford. Maybe next year...(or this year at the trade deadline)...
No better way to start the day
Than a giant Fuck You loss from the Seattle Mariners
I feel like this signifies a turning point in the Mariners' season.
I don;t think they can hurt me any more. Not this year.

Yeah I feel the same way.
I am begging to slip in a dangerous state of blissful numbness. I am just apathetic.

I would have liked to hear Dave do his famous grand slam call today.
Because even though it was Luke Scott and he in on the other team…it might be the only time I get to hear it this year. Thank Rizz for taking up valuable radio space on the Lopez Grand Slam.
Why do they have to score runs?
If they would just stick to the whole “no offense” thing, I could totally stop paying attention and be a happier man… This “scoring runs” deal they try every once in a while is damned inconvenient, as it makes me want to keep rooting for them. As a side note: PANCAKES! (Mariners collapse – Carb-induced blood-sugar crash?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o-u4IwXkbE&feature=fvsr

The worst day I've had as a Mariner fan.
I feel like William Tell, or Maid Marian on her tiptoed feet, pulling mussels from a shell.
You mean this year right?
Please tell me you mean this year,
by Mariner Melee on May 13, 2010 1:47 PM PDT up reply actions
Of course I meant this year. And of course I left it out by accident.
Although it’s been a crappy day all-around, that’s for sure.
No _player_ got injured...
…I wouldn’t be surprised if a few fans gouged out their eyes.
Is anyone actually emotionally invested in this team any more?
I quit over a week ago.
by EnglishMariner on May 13, 2010 2:17 PM PDT up reply actions
My emotional investment counselor told me to move my liquid emotional assets
to a safer low rate of return.

NOW my Daughter is watching the Cubs!!!!
Someone tell me this is all a bad dream . . .
I will wake up . . .
and we will be in contention . . .
for something other than the first draft pick.

Is that... is that a Mary Poppins reference?
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to achieve it through not dying.

I think the marshmellow pillow joke predates Mary Poppins.
Hard work never killed nobody, but I won't take my chances.
We get Dingers, they get Salami
As it turned out, I think the O’s were OK with getting the lunchmeat…
Yikes.
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to achieve it through not dying.

Did Langerhans ever get his coffee?
Rooting for lovable losers since 1984.
1 for 4 (2B) with 2SO.... Not *enough* coffee!
Saunders and Ichiro, however, got Espresso.
Sweeney's Dinger...
…was the most depressing part of the day for me. The way Wak is hanging on to under-producing players, I fully expect to see Sweeney back in 2011 as a reward for that solo shot! sigh
Pancakes are just waffles that didn't do anything with their lives

The dialogue is perfect, but I'm imagining that they're oblivious to some larger tragedy taking place.
I’m envisioning the players carrying on with this cheery, vacuous conversation oblivious to the hotel/restaurant structure burning down and collapsing around them.
Me, too.
But I was picturing it as they ended up not realizing that there was a game going on and Jeff was really trying to tell them that they needed to get to the field, but then realized it wouldn’t make much of a difference, so he just decided to yell “YOU SUCK” instead.
If Brad Pitt is playing Beane who do you want playing you?
JD: Eddie Guardado.

I interpretted it as the Mariners invading Jeff's breakfast and ignoring him while eating his food.

Food's on the table and Griffey isn't there. Something's amiss.
Maybe he’s napping?
