Open Thread: Game 155 - A's at Angels (cont.)

It doesn't take a f***ing molecular biologist to know you don't throw an 0-2 fastball down the middle but...10-9 Angels after 7 bizarre innings.

It's more comfortable here

Less advertisements and new hope

rally thread. let's go A's!!!

I finally made it.

Well Well Well

College football sucks.

Hey easy there young man...
Today was brutal
Yes today was not good for me either...Being a Fresno State Grad...but wow Cal...not sure what to say!!
My alma mater is currently winning...not sure about the other.

Fresno State gave Cincinnati all they could handle.

We didn’t just lose to Oregon, we were totally destroyed, demolished and crushed. Still, Oregon is a pretty good team; however, I thought it’d be a relatively close game.

Mississippi, Penn State and Miami were other top teams to lose. We were not alone today. This is just one loss. We have to win next week’s game, though, or else we can’t win the Pac-10.

hello

Hey, you.

how are u?

I’m disappointed, frustrated and angry at Cal.

How are you?

I’m good. How is school?

It’s going well, I suppose.

How about you?

Good. just graduated

Congratulations!

thanks

and yes in september. I went to job corps

You're too late.

OAH is dressed now.

We were wondering where you were.

I was, uh, taking care of business.

we could taught you how to shave if you had asked

Hey, I know how to shave. I have a pretty nifty electric shaver.

So either taking a dump or masturbating, in youngin speak
I hope he doesn't lose his hearing
Or go blind.

Or grow hairy palms.

i thought it was eyesight
I can still see.

I call bullshit.

I thought you start like, going bald
I think this is where I run and hide in the corner....
Is this the 5 run inning game thread? becasue that's where I wanted to go.
your in the right spot..

but it is 10 to get in

6 run....i'm predicting a 15-11 final.
here we go.... leadoff double by Penn
OAH! Quick! Undress! Save this game!
ok ok hold on...
down to your skivvies
is it working yet?
I'm not sure. Are you still wearing anything?
nothing, well one thing
Well, take it off! We need to score here!
ok, but then i need to go when this half of the inning is over
hurry and take it off before the next pitch
Are you listening to the Divinyls?
It's working for me!!!
Why did Geren pull Zigler last inning?
maybe to turn matthews around? does he switch hit?
I got an idea

Marco! Scut….oh wait, nevermind

get him over to 3rd

Penington does it himself…. now drive him home AK

Bringing in some Hawaii love!

Let’s go A’s!

optimistprimo
Yo! Sunburned in Waikiki but here now !
We are honored you checked in from paradise
tying run on 3rd. good job, cliff.
GO AHEAD run at the plate
GO AHEAD run on 1st
GO REALLY FAR AHEAD run on the bench.
DO NOT PASS GO run left on base.
raj raj raj - hit
Not even close with the pitches
that pitch was JUST a little outside
I want bomb shelter.
lets go to hitting Raj
Hit Rajai Hit
send Kennedy 3-2. throw down Penn scores
nice gap in LC for rajai
gap - wasted
crap --- feeble
His hustle to the dugout was pretty lively though
swung a little late there, buddy
rajai is channeling cust this game
Rajai has been K'ing a lot lately

He has struck out eight times in his last five games.

Davis has struck out 11 times in his last 10 games.

mighty Rajai has struck out.
Against LH starters, Raj should lead off and Barton should hit 2nd
against right handers Raj should lead off
AK has been good enough against RH for AK-Raj to make sense

but he’s not good against LH. Barton’s always been fine against LHs.

c'mon ryan, i'm getting cold...

May I assist you?

well i have to get dressed, so come on sweeney and SCORE

Damn, he couldn’t find a hole.

Really? Cause to me it feels like it's getting warm in here.
Come on Sweeney

Gotta tie this at least

Interesting

Way to check a swing :)

Whatever works.....
the check of the year
Whatever works, I guess.

“You will find luck when you go home,” reads my fortune cookie.

I’m already home.

that was ball 4... ok... here comes another pitch
shit.. then he lets the one on the corner go....
Nice heckler in the crowd
at this point i'd take a sac fly even
HIT HIT HIT
ok evidently a stripped down oah is not bringing any luck, time to get dressed again
Get dressed again!

Put on articles of clothing one at a time. When we need luck.

1st and 3rd, no outs

and two fails

Swinky FAIL

Swing the damn bat

gotta swing the bat

do NOT let this guy off the hook

I'm ready for the fall down at first play
Swing!-ey! Gadzooks.
gosh. raj and sweeney fail

what’s going on here these days

Suzuki ties it up..

atta baby…

ssssssuuuuuuccccccccckkkkk it!!!!
YES!

We are all knotted up at 10.

Yeah

Hawaiian power!!

TIE. GAME. HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Man-Crush does it again!!
hawt, love those man crushes
THAT'S what I'm talkin about
85 RBI's from Zook

Impressive

Love you Kurt!

Awesome. What a strange game.

oh baby!!!!!!!!!!!!
YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES
nice
Whatever you're wearing, don't put anything on or take anything off!
So, no pants on then?
i put on some sexy perfume, is that okay?
Yee-haa!

Much love, Jack.

yyyyyeaaaaaaahhhh baby!
I dont believe what I just saw!!
FLIP IT AND REVERSE IT!
YAAAAAAAHHH!

Shoulda sent Zook!

I was hoping they would

If you have a 40% chance, go for it. I’d like to see a replay to gauge whether there was the window of opportunity. Of course, Barton has been sizzling so…Go Dale!

oh YEAH!!!!

pile on guys

damn, i really want these other 2 runs!
hearing some Carlos Santana in my head...

I’m winnin’. I’m winnin’.

I love it when the camera zooms to an unoccupied part of the outfield....
Suck it, Bootcheck!

I mean, Jepsen.

Come on guys

I wanna bring a broom to the game tomorrow!

In Oakland, with the torn up field, that probabaly gets to the wall
If only the Rams stayed in Anaheim!
WHAT. Another run! Keep 'em coming!
So who's pitching the 8th for us?
How quickly can you get ready?
Staplehead hitting .276 with an .822 OPS
Come on Barton
yes...insurance run!
Yes!!

Keep ’em coming!

The craziest game

of the year! :)

what the hell is Cust not running for
Governor?
hee hee

you and I are soulmates.

Time for that HR Ellie
YOU CALLED IT!!!
there's our 6 runs this inning!!!!!
I'm soooooo happy

and I ♥ ELLIS

Wouldn't it be great if Wash was able to rally Texas to sweep the Angels?
YES YES a thousand times YES
I so glad I have the MLB Gameday on my iPhone.

Now I can listen to that series.

i am so late, but i can't leave
You have a good excuse.
So long as you're there by the end of the show

you can just say it was great, and you were standing at the back.

Standard practice

It actually still works if you arrive

about five minutes after it’s over. Been there, done that.

"yeah, I was just at the bar. good soloing, there"
"Yea, you really rocked out."
This game is

hurry before I change my mmmmmmiiiiiiinnnnnd
HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAH
Ellis laces a 3 RUN BOMB 15 -10 A's
Just tuned in to AN to observe the joy joy joy

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

OH YES OH YES OH YES
UNICORN delivers a fairy-tale type homer!
LOL This is incredible
WHAT.
Hahaha, didn't see this before posting the same below
no, seriously, I love this.
i knew ellis would get a home run tonight after that lousy call earlier
The A's don't want you to leave!

They heard that you were leaving after this half-inning.

Redemption.... did you notice if he looked at Gibson as he rounded 2nd?

HELL NO…. He was too jacked up on the HR

That's my Dakota Boy!

On his rainbow unicorn, bringing love to all the world!

hee. what a pretty picture.
MLB Gamecast now projects A's with a 98% chance of winning

I’ll wait for that final out first.

Hey FF, I was absent earlier

what was it when they were up, 9-2?

Probably about 98% the other way
I'm eyeballing the Fangraphs game graph.

It looks around there.

Please post it when the game's over
Traffic should be geting heavy around the stadium now....
Who'd a thunk

A’s scored more than Cal today

Don't remind me... ugh
they are playing so loose right now... it is incredible
i love how when there's an HR hit in to the opposing bullpen

no one moves. it could be coming right at their head and i bet no one would move

now can buck play pretty please?
no.
maybe if we score 5 more

so keep your clothes off, OAH

did all the runs score this inning with 2 outs?
...Yes.

I’m scared. Hold me. Who are these people?

opposite field hitting and everything

this is clearly an alien team

This is the team we've all been waiting for!

are they overachieving??

we'll see if they can repeat it next season.

If they do, then no.

If we get team play next season like the second half this year....I'll be happy.

Happier if we go to post season – but the great minds here say 2011

i don't know

statistics probably say yes, but who knows.

Must be today's theme

Texas scored 11 eleven! runs today with TWO out!!

EIGHTEEN hits. EIGHTEEN. I don't believe it.

And EPat walks?! That is even stranger.

EPat has walked twice tonight.
All I have to say is.

“Suck it Angles” Your run is over next year.

Pretty quiet in Halo Land now!!
Apart from the boos
You guys have no idea how satisfying this is to beat these

motherforkers.

My slegnA friend called (He is in Tulsa for a month) when they were up 9-2 and gloated.

Guess who is getting a call when the game ends. I don’t care what time is there or who in his family I piss off.

that will be sweet
LMAO
ok, i really should go, sweet dreams everyone and go A's!
Have fun, kiddo.
bye. be good.
or be really bad.
I hope she remembered to get dressed before she left.
you have to be bad to be good
you gotta be cruel to be kind
You gotta be clothed to get naked.
And now Breslow is in line for the win

Further showing what a joke the win stat can be.

Hey, he did his job!

He got in the game. After that, it’s all up to….

Now the NFL is giving W-L records to QBs. Even MORE Absurd!

Brett Farve unretired to try for the Cy Young this year.
I'm so glad this team can't hit

Else a blow out game like this where our ’replacement level" starter + Co. allowed 10 runs might have gotten interesting.

Oh— wait a minute………………………..

But seriously-- Has Barton turned a corner??

It really appears so— maybe Chris Carter put the fear of god in him

Im not a believer till he does it in April.
I am in align with this idea

has crossed my thinking noggin’

So far he's been great in September, not so much the rest of the time
Well, it's good we remind them what exactly heartbreaking disapointment feels like before the post season.
A's 15-

scored more than seven ranked college football teams today. hahahahhahhahahaha

Paterno would die to have our offense
Hell Yeah!!!

Ellis goes 0-4 and then!!!!

Sweet!!!

Suzuki/Cust/Barton

10-for-14, 6 runs, 10 RBI, 3 doubles, 2 homers, 1 strikeout.

That looks like one of Carter's game lines.
can i get some props for calling a 6 run inning?
ABSOLUTELY!!!
woohoo! we're gonna win.
Don't jinx it!
i take it back for now
PROPS

and… props!!!

Barton now hitting .281 with an .830 OPS
I could certainly get used to that.
Good job Breslow

walking the first guy

Weak link of the good guys that can be counted on in pen.

In his defense that was a long top of the 8th...
What are those heckler kids yelling?
"Oh the Freshmen down at Yale get no tail...."
"We want a pitcher,

not a belly itcher" ? (I heard someone yell that before)

So many fans must have left by now

I wish their moms would do the same.

I can't understand - but their parents should reign them in

seriously

GIDP NOW
coming up
triple play?
hunter runs too well
he could fall down

it’s that kinda game

i liked that outcome
Please throw some farking strikes
too much time sitting on the bench

some pitchers really lose it

I must remind you all that I hate

Chone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

a crowded position

damnit

this game could go 4.5 hours

they think they're the Red sox-Yankees.
For Christ Sakes Breslow

how the hell do you have a 3.44 ERA?

If this is any indication, it will not be that way much longer

Because he's been good a lot more than he's been bad?
I'm not sold on him

His command is pretty “come and go” both in and out of the strike zone. He’s not bad, but to me he’s “second tier.”

I seem to recall him giving up GW bombs

several times this season.

Very mediocre and second tier like Nico says.

message from Breslow

get off my nuts.

gray area coming up
just setting up for the TRIPLE PLAY
Here's where I think you go to Bailey

Heart of the order, runners on. The save is now. Gray can pitch the 9th if Bailey shuts the Angels down in the with 0-1 runs in the 8th.

nice nico

excellent strategy.

i like that thinking
Breslow suddenly becoming CC Sabathia works pretty well too.
so you want to start calling your saver , the semi - saver?
super-saver

any situation, put the fire out.

They used to call them “firemen” out of the bullpen.

firemen because you burn them up off the game roster?

what is to say you don’t get in a worse jam in the 9th?

crimony, i though this was the 9th.
Yes

I love strickouts

Okay one down baby

now GIDP

I second this motion

any votes??

Hey, you're the one calling things tonight.
My God

He got an out

Now a DP (somehow please)

Sitdown Halo Hunter
doesn't sound like this one is over

I’ve just been “passively listening” since i had to finish a work document — and I finished it! (yay!)

my god

What is with this team! This is so god damned exciting and so hard to not get over-hyped about next season.

I agree....

When they play like they are in the hunt – when they are so out of the hunt I feel like they have some heart. I’m not sure I could have said that at some other points in the season. It gives me hope for next year even though we might not have all the pieces in the house to go post-season. But like I posted in a thread recently – I believe in the magic and intangibles!!

Yeah - Baby!!
Is it just me or does it like like

Vlad could literally fall apart at any moment?

He does look weird
he's been so good for so long

but clearly his skills are in a precipitous decline

Seems like a perfect A's target for 2010

“Hey, he used to be really awesome!”

nah, he needs another year or two of mediocrity

then we’ll have him right where we want him

Nice pitchin' by Breslow!

Thank goodness Vlad isn’t quite himself anymore.

wow guerrero would have been all over that in '06
That was so Sweeney of Vlad.....
I hope they get closer

That way the Angels can get another taste of the best reliever in baseball. Bailey that is.

If that had gone out....

…I would have so blamed you!

The only way we could stick it to the Angels more is if we manufactured a crappy save for Bailey.

One of those tying-run-on-deck type deals.

I wish the A's would do that bullshit

Even though it burns the closer unnecessarily, there is something to be said for treating your closer right, which means giving him every opportunity to get saves. That is his livelihood and his pay day. The Angels pull that shit with Fuentes all the time, why he is leading the league….lame

Torri Hunter is playing hurt

He grimaced a bunch of times last night and did not look good there.

Keep playing him Scioscia. He needs to be out there every inning of every game.

saw that too!

He must really be feeling it.

I would not be opposed to Hunter crashing into the wall at full speed trying to rob a home run

Nothing serious just miss the rest of the season and feel fine and healthy when there are no games to play.

Slegna suck even in Hawaii!
warning track power
In a word: Gak.
So, have I missed anything?
Nah
Hey -- you coming to Chez Nico II on Tuesday night?

Dead seagull on the grill from the Coastal Cleanup?

Not flying back until Tuesday Late night :(

I will miss you guys and puccinni!

Not really. Just some

GYMNASTICS.

Nope, just one run scores, then another

then the other team copies, and scores a few.

HOOOOOOOOO HUmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

No problem

(heart finally starts beating again)

c'mon, with a five run lead???

it’s in the bag!!!

Not as if the A’s are trailing 9-2 or someting

sweeeeeet. only one more inning!
IIRC O'Sullivan is the guy who no-hit the River Cats this year

He must pay.

you know, I'm not normally one to sraw attention such things,

but the one who played the emotive one had the cutest pear-shaped butt I’ve even seen.

the borg queen you mean?
I assumed he meant Deanna Troi.

They certainly costumed her to show it off.

yeah, her.

what was it about that costume?

The ass that was inside it.
Do you remember the scene where

she and Dr Crusher were stretching together while discussing something or other? I think that was the one where Dr Crusher was having a fling with the Trill ambassador.

not by name,

but I’m sure I was fond of it.

Wrong diplomat, wrong fling.

I was close. It was the one where Troi was having the fling with the half-Betazoid guy who was negotiating some treaty.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that the scene can be found on YouTube.

nono, she was equally hot.

but the empath.

yeah troi
People complained during the first season of TNG, so they put her in a regular uniform most of the time thereafter.

Such a shame.

they did?

why?

for some reason i remember her in the faded purple outfit most of the time
Maybe it wasn't always a regular uniform, but they did move away from the sexier stuff.
i suppose

i remember a flowy teal dress she wore far less than i would have liked

The lavender body stocking

was definitely the one.

I actually wasn’t a huge Troi fan, but that was a hell of a costume.

Wikipedia is contradicting me.

They say it was after six years, and it was done to make the character stronger. But maybe we’re both right and there was a change after the first season and again after the sixth.

What does Memory Alpha say?
this is engraved in a dilithium crystal somewhere
It doesn't really say much about it.
gotta bust out the DVDs after this and check now
Was it Kirstie Alley?
no she was saavik on the original movies
Did you take a nap?

You seem much more awake now!!

I slept all day...

I took a nap from the beginning of this game.

So, to longly answer your question, yes.

Didn't he have a hit in the '70's with "Alone Again (Naturally)"?
Did the Angel feed just show a fan turning his back on the game?
yep
That is brilliant. They are practically in the playoffs

and he’s throwing a hissy fit? Stupid fan!

maybe a foul ball will find its way over
Is it close to full moon?!

Crazy fun game

Hey people!

Sorry I’m late to the party. I was watching Iowa’s glorious victory over Penn State. What a crazy game I seem to have missed.

Iowa was down 10-0!

But not for long!
Enjoy it while you can

Michigan is going to be tough and the Badgers at home is always hard.

Iowa has a tough road schedule for sure with Ohio State and Michigan State still.

They do have a tough schedule, but Michigan state sucks,

watched them play my badgers today, Iowa is the better team, even with the preseason hype for sparty.

well, if the ND game is any indication,

MSU sucks.

I agree. They never should have been hyped up before the year.

Wisconsin, Penn State, Iowa, and Ohio State are the only really good teams IMO.

Indeed - one of the craziest
good for you. i had a bad afternoon watching one football game
Great win for the Hogs

I mean, Hawks. Very impressive to stuff Penn State at home.

The first quarter was ugly.

But they gutted it out. The defense really turned it on after that. When we returned a blocked punt for a TD, it was all Iowa after that.

Sweet.

Saw the blocked punt

I switched over to the game briefly when it is 9-2 slegnA.

My friends sent me on a beer run

just before that play. Got my car one block down the street before I heard it on the radio. I had to call them and scream for a minute. Awesome.

Top of the order up!!

OK, let’s score some runs now!!

wild swing there rajai
I hope

I can see this score 2moro @the coliseum.

If the D scores

Not sure Jamarcus can deliver that many points throwing the ball.

Yes

He needs to work on that “throwing the ball” thing

Why is it that every hit I ever watch sweeney get looks like luck

He seems to hit the ball so weirdly, soft liners that look like he gets jammed, opposite field grounders through the hole. Doubles down the line.

I mean ill take it, but Im concerned.

He had a vicious swing on his last HR

he said, “I wonder why I’m not doing that all the time?”

He also seems to get a lot of hits in spots that are not so important...and when it counts he seems to take a lot of very close pitches for strike 3
he'll learn on that front
How many two HR games does Cust have this year??

he needs another!

yup
Our spectacular catcher:

3-4, 3 R, 4 RBI, 1 BB. Wheee.

just once, I want the cop to take out his night stick

and beat the fuck out of the Supercuts guy.

OK - let's close it out now 1-2-3
yup, and go for the sweep tomorrow.

if we can win with eveland pitching, we can win with e-gon pitching.

let's not press our luck

I’ll take 2 of 3 any day.

me too, but why not root for the sweep?
I love it

but e-gon, that’s hoping for a lot..

i would not be a true A's fan if i was willing to settle for a loss
I'm not saying we lose

but it is e-gon. I’ll say this: if we can beat the Angles back to back with Eveland and E-gon pitching, then this team has really turned the corner. Go A’s!

I'm rooting for the sweep......
but we are rooting for a collapse

and trying to give Texas a shot

don't jinx it

i’m going tomorrow. i wanna see a sweep

Shut it down, Bailey!
get kendromeda out!
LET'S DO IT OAKLAND!

Complete my perfect night.

Sports-wise, anyway.

I would love to be the team that deals them their 4 game losing streak
icing on the cake
Let's Go Oakland

Make the pain of the Cal loss sting less.

Seriously.

WTF was that crap

I'm not here to talk about the past!
It seemed to me that the Minnesota game kind of exposed Cal as one-dimensional.
No really, I didn't even get to watch it.

Typical Cal bullshit I guess. All the expectation in the world and then a 7-3 season.

someone called it an upset

that was no upset, that was a beat down.

YES!
One down - two to gooooooo
For the record,

SlegnA has

Oops.

One more against Oakland, 4 against TEX, then 3 at Oakland.

Bailey: 1.90 ERA. [swoon]
Um, ok.

Let’s throw some strikes?

DPDPDPDP
oh god casilla is up
that's who we want in.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Let’s do this bailey NOW!!!

Well he is good with schoolchildren apparently..
they put people in prison for that, I thought.
come on andrew, five run lead.

go with #1

Every time I see "defensive indifference" on gameday,

I’m reminded of “Jason Kendall scores on defensive indifference.” Tee hee.

Sulk-off.

So awesome.

Best.Walk-off.Ever
i love watching that replay
best time to be listening to the radio

It was very memorable

which game are you talking about?
Kendall scored the winning run when KRod didn't catch the throw back from the catcher.

It was amazing.

i like it when physioc says on the slegnA telecast

“the A’s find another way to win”

THAT was another one.....loved to see KRod implode
K-Fraud missed the return throw from the catcher because he tried to do this lame glove flip.

Ball rolled behind him, and Jason Kendall dashed home from third.

yeah, that's an awesome game. hilarious
Hahaha.

I’ll never forget that one.

Or the Pennington Baltimore Chop-off.

muahahahahahahahaha

i love it!!

...and it couldn't have happned to a nicer opponent!
Do they hate us as much as we hate them?
Halos Heaven sure thinks so.
i hope they remember this win

next season and say “we had our chance to stick it to them then”

Wow, Patterson is so fucking shaky in the field.
but he's smooth at the plate
Victory!

Celebrate Good Times, Come On!

Great minds think alike --
Great Great WIN!!!!!
Ho Hum.....Just another game in the books....
Get oudda here!!!

;-)

just another Oakland victory!
WOO HOO!

A’s Victory! Hawkeyes Victory! BEST. SPORTS. NIGHT. EVAR.

we win!!!

awesome comeback, guys

GAME OVER
STOP BEING SO NEGATIVE!!!!!!111
victory for oakland!

sweep tomorrow!

A'S WIN, BITCHES!!!

Feels like a clinched or something o_O
VICTORY, ASSHATS

Athletics beat the Angels 15-10

Multiple HRs!!
LS HR the DAGGER strike!!

Yes! I did do that!

oh wait… no, that wasn’t me.

hurray for our side!

It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound, everbody look what's goin' down

The slegnA season, that is.

How do you like that shit Sciosca?
Almost as good...

as the Minnesota win?? Better…F**K the slegnA!!

A's now 75-80 on the season

With 7 games to go…

wasn't last year 74 wins??

hate to look, just wanna know.

I believe we have matched last year's win total
6-1

the rest of the way is the goal. Keep it going A’s!!!!

Can we catch the Mariners?
tie them at 82-80

best we could do vs Seattle.

you mean the two last place teams...

would be tied with winning records??

That is crazy.

My standards have been so low for the past couple seasons that 75-80 looks really awesome. It’s a little sad. But let’s aim higher! Winning record, maybe?!

Ok, be honest

how many of you turned the channel when we were down 9-2?

I tuned in after that
Almost....I checked to see what else was coming on....
i stayed cuz AN was so much fun
i changed

but I had it on DVR, thank gawd! had to rewind to see wtf happened. lol

at least you didn't miss it

it’s even sweeter coming against the Angels

Not me....I learned my lesson earlier in the season when we had that one great comeback win

I promised I would not do that again!!!

We haven't lost a series since getting swept in Seattle at the end of August.

Fantastic.

Of which I had the luck to see the first game

At least I had the luck to be at the 2000 hit Ichiro game where the A’s won. Made up for that. (Although I’ll admit, the seats I was at Safeco were much nicer.)

Houston takes a-29-28 lead over Texas Tech with :49 left
The Astros are playing the Rangers this late in the season???
Too bad we cant go over to halos heaven and gloat....

but then those douchebags would be here all the time!

I can glurk.....
does that involve spitting?
no just gloating and lurking....
Hahaha.

I’m using that word from now on.

feel free!!;-)
gloating, lurking, smirking
where do they hide their game threads over there?
Weird

It was there earlier

they archive them right away.

Found it.

even better!!
actually - not sure I would waste my time.
Warning: Reading Halos Heaven will cause your IQ to momentarily drop at least 30%
I was just there man it was a BLAST.
spill
"ugly-ass ballgame" and such profanities.
a sampling

Team performance aside
vlad looks like garbage.
does scioscia have the balls to move him?
is tori playing hurt?
does scioscia have the balls to move him or pine him?

that’s what bothers me … until the rangers are 1 behind

WELL - maybe I'll go take a little peek.....
There's a couple of hat-tippers there, but most of them are just being sore butts.
Im sure they're crying about...

how they could lose to such a sucky team….TWICE!!….and the umps were out to get them etc…etc…etc…

Did the A's change hitting coach mid-season?

How come they started hitting well?

this win was sweet for so many reasons

but especially after getting jobbed by the umps earlier in the game

You sigline reminds me so much of those double-stuff oreo commercials.
I don't think I've seen those

what’s in them?
