It’s a fantastic alt-rock album, better than Pablo Honey, yet accessible. OK Computer twisted it and took it in a new direction that made it even more awesome. One of the greatest albums of all time kind of awesome.

At least you were watching baseball and not stuck dealing with microfilm/microfiche/whatever the heck it’s called.
Kendall probably used his insider info from those years of catching Huston to figure out what pitch he was gonna throw… I mean, there had to be something fishy going on for Jason Kendall to hit a home run.
So who are the A's playing again?
oh and Roomy
sirbed - September 29, 2009
They're playing Pepper with Felix the Cat
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
I'd pay attention to that
sirbed - September 29, 2009
That's either a pointless bad idea
or a criminal animal abusey bad idea.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
how about criminally pointless?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
I'm on board with sirbed's point
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
it's always a good idea to be on board with what I say
or is it always a bad idea hmm I can’t remember
sirbed - September 29, 2009
What if I don't care if I piss you off?
What then?
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
then I cut you.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
With what?
Do i get a choice of what you cut me with?
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
hmm.
that does seem fair.
okay.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Don't cut me with Benzocaine
Anything else is fair game.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
you don't want a nice BM?
you sure?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
IF I knew what a BM was.....
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
It cuts like a knife
at least that’s what Bryan Adams told me
sirbed - September 29, 2009
someone needs to cut him.
if they haven’t already.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
He brought Robin Hood to life!
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
but everything he does
he does for you
sirbed - September 29, 2009
You & CityplANner jinxed each other
Are you happy now?
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
You're just mad you didn't come up with Summer of 69
Stop being a hater.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
true...
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
everything he did
he did it for you, LB.
Never forget that
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
(sniff sniff)
I’m sorry, Bryan. You hockey-lovin’, back-bacon-eatin’, took-wearin’ freak!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
what then indeed my friend
what then indeed
sirbed - September 29, 2009
42
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
hmm what is 28+14
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Or 2 * 21
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
or 2 + 2 = 5
I got myxamatosis
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
There there.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Very nice!
I love me some Radiohead.
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
yes!
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
I've tried to get into them a few times
but no success so far. Got any tips to what to try with them?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
OK Computer
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Yep or Pablo Honey
I don’t really know how to go backwards with their music but OK Computer brought along the rest of the world who didn’t already love them.
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
I started with The Bends.
It’s a fantastic alt-rock album, better than Pablo Honey, yet accessible. OK Computer twisted it and took it in a new direction that made it even more awesome. One of the greatest albums of all time kind of awesome.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
I cannot disagree
with anything positive about Radiohead. I love them.
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
I'll try OK Computer again
see if I dig it this time
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Depends.
They’re such a varied band that it totally depends where you’re coming from. What’s your favorite kind of music?
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
I like a bunch of Brit bands
from Genesis and the Police to Coldplay and Oasis
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Never could handle Oasis
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
I like the first two albums
but not much since
sirbed - September 29, 2009
With ya there
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Then, yeah, I'd recommend starting with their early stuff.
The Bends or OK Computer. Anything after that is going to be heavily laced with electronica and pretty inaccessible.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
thanks
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Here's a litmus test:
how many times have your ideas landed someone in prison and or jail?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Yes
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
less than 20 times
not bad when you think about it
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Roomy indeed.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Awesome escape from Cahill.
Again.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
And lunch
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
Everyone is just distracted by the tsunami advisory
Englishmajor - September 29, 2009
ya not a big concern where I am
sirbed - September 29, 2009
wha?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
this
earthquake in the pacific
It’s due in just over an hour..
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
oh.
sry guys.
If it makes you feel better, I live in Florida. And Florida sucks.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
the water will be
a little higher than normal
Though, any excuse for me to hang out on my roof and shout at passing cars, really
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
bring a lawn chair and a cooler!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
It's not much of a tsunami -- we're just supposed to stay off the beach
Which is fairly easy to do when it’s dark and about 50 degrees out.
Englishmajor - September 29, 2009
unless you want to shoot an Arab.
Perfect beach conditions for that.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Nothing major Stateside from the looks of it
But fingers crossed for American Samoa.
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
Between that and the terrible flooding in the Philippines, bad week in the Pacific
Englishmajor - September 29, 2009
Rain is not something that is a rare occurence in Seattle
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Or Mist actually
But, that’s quibbling.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Is it in the electric mist with confederate dead?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Nah
It’s just when the sky’s are gray.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
I'm all out of Wasabi Peas
booo.
What do I eat now?
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
white chocolate
sirbed - September 29, 2009
lettuce soup?
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
that was lunch
I do like lettuce, though
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
needs more Trav and Ry
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
oh baby
excuse me for a few minutes…
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Ok I am back
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
omg omg, that photo ....
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Yea, that's a keeper.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
i think it trumps that salty - cj one
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Only because they are hatless.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
and smiling at the camera
i’d like to be in between them
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
So hatless is at a premium?
JLaff - September 29, 2009
YES
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Hmm
you’re welcome
JLaff - September 29, 2009
EXACTLY
Its going to be a good night.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Um, hi.
I’ll be over here, I guess.
mikev - September 29, 2009
Ok
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
ouch.
mikev - September 29, 2009
I'll come take care of you later.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
whatever
mikev - September 29, 2009
zf will love that
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
ryan usually looks better with a hat, but he looks good in that one, and travis oh , words fail me
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
absolutely.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
more salty
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
sweet
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
OH.MY.GOD
my sandwich is ready
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
that is officially my favorite photo ever
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
haha, glad you like it.
My friend and I are in the original version, but I cropped us out so now we only see the good stuff.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
it's awesome!! do you have anymore?
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
that one's the best,
but there are a few more here. Be sure to scroll down in that thread — Kimberly posted some awesome photos in the comments.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
so how did you get to meet them?
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
they were signing autographs at Stoneridge Mall
last December, when the A’s had this Holiday Caravan thing. It was pretty awesome.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
oh man i missed it, they are pretty
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Needs more A's hitting
doctorK - September 29, 2009
First K!
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
I hope Ray picked Sabathia because he thinks the Yankee Effect...
…will come into play and not because he thinks Sabathia actually deserves it.
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
It's probably 'cause he has more WINZ
doctorK - September 29, 2009
Essentially it comes down to "Sabathia didn't actually suck after signing a big FA deal with the Yankees"
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
And I see that's not the case
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
Food
I will rejoin you guys after dinner.
Rated-R Superstar - September 29, 2009
Have fun with your macaroni and cheese.
And chocolate milk.

Cust run - walk, wild pitch, ground ball, base hit?
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
you called it!
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
after it happened!
I’m not saying I’m like Jesus – that is for others to say. If if they do, who am I to argue?
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
WOOOHOOOO THE A'S SCORED@$%@#$%!@~!!!!
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Patterson is 2 for 2 against Felix Hernandez
Nick - September 29, 2009
No way
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
Felix is not pitching as well as he normally does
There is no way a guy like him has a 1 to 1 strike to ball ratio.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
That 15-foot high pitch counted for 10 balls.
I think is how it works.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
lol
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
Hall FAIL
WTF is he throwing to third for?
doctorK - September 29, 2009
WTFN?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Why the Face?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
BTHOOM
sirbed - September 29, 2009
hey we scored
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
I'm gonna score a little later
sirbed - September 29, 2009
woohoo!
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Have you told her yet?
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
I'm telling my right hand as we speak
sirbed - September 29, 2009
It slapped you, didn't it?
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Whataya mean,
“Not tonight—I have carpal tunnel?!”
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
I'm going to cheat with my left hand
she never gives silly excuses
sirbed - September 29, 2009
With your ailing right hand forced to watch?
That’s just cruel, man.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
laughing maniacally the whole time,
staring right at his right hand.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
hey you're going to give me a complex!
sirbed - September 29, 2009
That is either the greatest mental image ever,
or the worst…no, actually, it’s pretty awesome either way.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Ambidexterous
I’m impressed.
doctorK - September 29, 2009
no electronics?
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
I like my loving to be a natural thing
sirbed - September 29, 2009
electronics are good
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
this is some steamy game thread-action!
Who knew this would happen once the gratuitous sweeney/buck pics came out?
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
cmon...really?
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
discussion of sex toys isn't steamy?
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
sex toys?
I thought we were talking about stereos
sirbed - September 29, 2009
I use my electronics all the time.
Like now, for instance.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
I was referring to you being surprised the thread was steamy.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Huge shock there.
mikev - September 29, 2009
not for men
Just for women
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
I don't know anyting about that
my ladies are all satisfied by me
sirbed - September 29, 2009
All ten fingers?
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
you need to find more adventurous ladies
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
hey I'm all the adventure any lady will ever need
sirbed - September 29, 2009
E. Patterson: you can't stop him, you can only slow him down.
JJ Martin - September 29, 2009
You can't stop him, but you probably won't need to
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
And then came Pennington
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
then Pennington takes over...
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
When does Polly come along?
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
woohoo
Go A’s
SwisherThresher - September 29, 2009
One pitch Pennington?
Aww
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
okay, like billy idol, i wanted more, more, more
ak_A - September 29, 2009
Where are these pics from the party we were promised?
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
srsly.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
how hard is it?
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
twss
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
Whoa...
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
This is good information to have!
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
I'm with ya
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
Something about a spotty internet connection and big picture files.
We’ll get ’em eventually, I think.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Nico's probably wearing a lampshade by now.
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
around his waist
ak_A - September 29, 2009
As long as he's not wearing any dead animals,
I think Chez Nico can be considered a success.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
I wonder if he has a leather jacket
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
WIth elbow patches?
Ewwww
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
yea
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
crap - gad
ak_A - September 29, 2009
Fail
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
FAIL
doctorK - September 29, 2009
Nice job, Staplehead
doctorK - September 29, 2009
dropped foul?
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
I blame Barton and Suzuki equally
No communication.
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
like Ma Bell?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
I thought that was Ill
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
do you think she killed Pa Bell?
I mean you never hear about him and has anyone seen him recently?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
I heard he got wiped out
with a wiffel bal bat
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
so his bell got rung then
sirbed - September 29, 2009
These are words that go together well?
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
your six degrees of Kevin Bacon
is Slick Rick, if you’re interested.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
The communication was definitely ill
Nick - September 29, 2009
What is so important about Milwaukee @ Colorado that I would want to have a live look in?
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Colorado being in a playoff race?
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
I'm an A's fan
If It wasn’t for the A’s playing, I could give 2 shits about MLB. Honestly.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
You watching MLB Network?
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
You have to have money for that
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
I guess what I'm trying to say is...
….is that when I’m irritated and don’t want to see the same thing over & over MLB Gameday shouldn’t do it. Basterds.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Ohhh, MLB Gameday
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
makes more sense than Cubs-Pirates
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
I cannot believe I watched five innings of that today
the more Ii think about it, the more I questiont he life choices that have brought me to where I am today
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
One of my professors
told a story about how she had to look up something on microfilm a couple years ago, and as she was scrolling through page after page, she thought, “I must have done something wrong, to be here doing this right now.”
At least you were watching baseball and not stuck dealing with microfilm/microfiche/whatever the heck it’s called.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
I'd like to invite her to come work at a sign shop in Florida.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
I'll pass along the offer,
but I think she has tenure now, so she might not be too excited about the whole sign shop idea.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
Really?
I thought everyone was excited about signs. They’re everywhere.
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
Breakin up the scenery...
alox - September 29, 2009
they don't like water though
sirbed - September 29, 2009
tell her position dictates perspective.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
simulacra and simulacrum!
wait, is that the right way round?
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
I dictate positions
sirbed - September 29, 2009
What about a job exchange??
Like a vocation vacation…some ppl just can’t stop working!!

Um, pizza and polar bears!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
um I'm voting for boobies
sirbed - September 29, 2009
Was Bill Hall not running hard, or is he just incredibly slow?
Nick - September 29, 2009
Dammit Jason Kendall
Hit4TheCycle - September 29, 2009
I found it hilarious
Was that the only HR Kendal hit all year?
javaball - September 29, 2009
Second
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
close enough, That's the old Kendall I knew, lol
javaball - September 29, 2009
His other home run was hit in Houston
Interestingly, those are the two places Kendall hit home runs when in Oakland…
Hit4TheCycle - September 29, 2009
really?
he only hit NL homers?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
He had one in Oakland against KC I remember
Then some home runs in NL Parks playing interleague.
Hit4TheCycle - September 29, 2009
Yup
That was in the end of May 2006. Street predicted after the game that Kendall’s HR would get the team going, and it sure did.
javaball - September 29, 2009
I think I was at that game.
The ball barely went over the wall, right down the LF? line… or something like that. It was shocking.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
Heh, I remember that.
Juuuuuuust poked over the LF wall. Crowd went nuts. So did the team.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
I think it cleared the wall by about two inches....
but this is all urban legend because if I recall correctly, the game where this legendary feat was supposed to have occurred wasn’t televised..
alox - September 29, 2009
That is pretty hard to believe, isn't it?
Nick - September 29, 2009
He might actually hit four or five homers in a full season at Coors Field
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
More evidence Coors Field seriously will skew your offense
KenDoll just bridged Huston Street for a game-tying 3-run bomb.
doctorK - September 29, 2009
ohtobehuston..
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
Oh, Huston. Really?
Kendall probably used his insider info from those years of catching Huston to figure out what pitch he was gonna throw… I mean, there had to be something fishy going on for Jason Kendall to hit a home run.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
Terrible call on the 2-2 pitch -- definitely a strike
Nick - September 29, 2009
At least Cahill is out of the inning
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
This ump seems to have
a phobia concerning ringing up a hitter on a called third strike. Unless your name is Jack Cust I fear.
alox - September 29, 2009
71 pitches from 4 innings
Looks like bullpen will be in for 6-7-8-9
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
But when he's averaging under 6 innings for the season
Is it that much of a surprise?
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
lol
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
OMG HE'S TOTALLY A #3 STARTER NEXT YEAR THOUGH!111O!!!
mikev - September 29, 2009
Instead of who?
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING? CAHILL NEEDS TO IMPROVE VS LHP!!!!678!!!
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
Doesn't look like Felix is getting the low strike calls either
At least the umps are consistent
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
Adam Lind with 3 HRs
That’s MLB Minimum Wage stuff
Hit4TheCycle - September 29, 2009
Adam Lind
He’s on my fantasy team and I’m in the championship game.

Take him out!

Ahem, I do

i was at dinner with friends
Deborah51 - September 29, 2009
Ok your excused then...LOL
wacchampions - September 29, 2009
Oh, boy, Paterson really has a comically weak arm, doesn't he?
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
The A's need two left-fielders when he's out there
E-Pat to catch the ball, and the other guy to throw it.
doctorK - September 29, 2009
I vote for Travis!
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
McGee or the band?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
the sexy outfielder
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
you like Travis Buck?
who knew?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
I'm ok with him out there at the moment, because it's a dead game and I need a laugh
but seriously? It’s not a sustainable situation, is it
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
Patterson's Arm
My imaginary friend has a stronger arm than he does.
Rated-R Superstar - September 29, 2009
That must be a pretty strong arm
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
wow it's already bottom of the 5th, i'm still recovering from that photo...
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Just take care of it.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Wow.
Don’t hold back
mikev - September 29, 2009
at least there's no PxP on AN
…..yet
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
I always hold back on here.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Good night y'all!
Amnesiac - September 29, 2009
night!
happy off-season!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
"happy off-season"?!
There is no such thing!
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
Later bud
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
Goodnight
Nick - September 29, 2009
FEAR THE ARM OF SWINKLES
doctorK - September 29, 2009
I thought it was Swingles?
But Swinkles is even funnier, somehow.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Swinkles makes me think of sprinkles.
Which makes me think of Sprinkles, Angela’s cat from “The Office.”
I’m not sure what conclusion to draw from this.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
Sprinkles makes me think of Annie Sprinkles
who was a porn star in the late 70’s and early eighties and was kinda big and sloppy. Very sexy.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
70's pr0n = hairy
doctorK - September 29, 2009
she was blonde and shaved.
pioneer.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Swooney getting all sorts of respect!~
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
Apparently,
there are no takers so far.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
If I put on my wig I could be the right girl for the job
sirbed - September 29, 2009
tell your fiancee you have a job in Florida!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
It's this girls dream come true
sirbed - September 29, 2009
that's a funny ad.
why don’t they hire a monkey?
Deborah51 - September 29, 2009
I'm not sure.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
It's amazing
You think Florida broads would be lining up around the corner to do that job.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
yup.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Fantastic catch by Raj
Wowsers!
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
rajai!!!!! i didn't think he had a chance on that one.
Deborah51 - September 29, 2009
Great catch by Rajai!
Mor ground ballz, plz
Nick - September 29, 2009
raj!
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
for sure, i thought was gonna drop
ak_A - September 29, 2009
Yeah
Right over the wall.
doctorK - September 29, 2009
crap
ak_A - September 29, 2009
zf, blevins is warming up
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
It's going to be a 3+ kind of night.
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
you go girl!
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
I'm off to listen to the soothing sounds of Korach
Hope we win!! Good night all.
ohtobe21likehuston - September 29, 2009
nighty night
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Have some sweet Kansas dreaming
sirbed - September 29, 2009

ak_A - September 29, 2009
night, o2b!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
omg blevins warming up
panties drop everywhere
mikev - September 29, 2009
youre assuming they were on to begin with
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
shrug.
mikev - September 29, 2009
Blevins should really put a belt on or something.
That’s embarrassing.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Okay, I have to brave the crickets and make one more trip to the laundry room.
If I’m not back in 10 minutes, send out a search party.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
crickets can sense fear.
Act boldly.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
I survived
but a cricket is now hiding somewhere in my kitchen. I do not look forward to the day when I discover it in a cupboard.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
get out the vaccuum cleaner, i have a bunch of spiders in mine
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
...with its vicious cricket teeth, ready to pounce and latch onto your neck!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Yes, that is EXACTLY what will happen.
You know, these crickets are serious business. They are Texas crickets and entirely too big and black and disgusting for their own good.
…there’s a restaurant in town called Crickets. I really don’t think I’ll be able to eat there again.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
again?!@
what the hell you doing eating in there to begin with?
Damn it, WS, do I hafta come to Texas and teach you everything?!
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
It was my second week here!
Before I had encountered the crickets. There was something crunchy in my burger, though…
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
Well, if we took out the crickets,
it wouldn’t be crunchy, now, would it?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
sht oh dear
ak_A - September 29, 2009
right after they talk to cahill, too.
did they tell him to groove one to griffey, i wonder?
Deborah51 - September 29, 2009
oh hell
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
carp
doctorK - September 29, 2009
Smoked
Flashfire - September 29, 2009
I guess Cahill didn't do what Young told him to do
Nick - September 29, 2009
Laced
Hit4TheCycle - September 29, 2009
Tomorrow
We’re going to win.
Rated-R Superstar - September 29, 2009
Well, THAT happened..
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
Well the A's officially lost
Thanks Cahill.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
So, I guess it's possible that Trevor Cahill had Ken Griffey Jr's last ever home run hit off him
bobnothing - September 29, 2009
Who's pitching tomorrow?
Nick - September 29, 2009
Ballgame.
mikev - September 29, 2009
And that woulda been the DP he needed
Nick - September 29, 2009
Yay kennedy.
and people want this guy resigned?
mikev - September 29, 2009
resigned? as in no longer working?
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
that's Chavez
sirbed - September 29, 2009
I stepped away for a minute -- E5?
Nick - September 29, 2009
no
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Unable to throw out Mike Carp at 1B on a slow ground ball
doctorK - September 29, 2009
This is a recording............
Cahill needs to improve vs LHB
Daniel777 - September 29, 2009
Um why isn't Blevins in this game yet?
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
They just want to give everybody time to prepare for his entrance.
mikev - September 29, 2009
why do the mariners own us?
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Retribution for that one year.
2005, was it?
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
2006
One of the reason’s the A’s made the playoffs that year.
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Yeah, so just leave him in there. Good job, Bobby.
mikev - September 29, 2009
Crosby's doing the managing now?
No wonder we’re losing.
whiteshoes40 - September 29, 2009
He's got Ed on the line.
He’ll be fine.
danmerqury - September 29, 2009
Kennedy's 2nd base arm showing up
bashbro89 - September 29, 2009
trevor's last pitch is coming about 5 batters too late
Deborah51 - September 29, 2009
Agreed.....
It always seems like it’s one batter toooooo late. That HR really hurt!
BERRYJO - September 29, 2009
he sure wasn't a mystery at all that inning
he got pounded from the first batter on
Deborah51 - September 29, 2009
Guess it's the diff between managing a team in the hunt and one that is not.
If we were in it…..I’m betting he’d have been on a super short leash!
BERRYJO - September 29, 2009
why do I still have pants on?
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
blevins isn't in yet
mikev - September 29, 2009
you do?
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
Pants are overrated
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Pants?
we don’t need no stinkin’ pants
sirbed - September 29, 2009
LA etiquette.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Los Angeles?
Etiquette?
Rated-R Superstar - September 29, 2009
good one RRS
sirbed - September 29, 2009
careful, son.
that’s your coast you’re talking about.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
California
It’s all about the Bay.
Rated-R Superstar - September 29, 2009
agrd.
to other Californians.
To the rest of the country, you’re lumped together with them all.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
Sadly he's right
pookeyguru - September 29, 2009
Because you're still in your urban demographics class?
Nick - September 29, 2009
winner
cityplANner - September 29, 2009
I may just have to masturbate instead of continuing to listen to this.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
you're thinking of me in the wig aren't you?
sirbed - September 29, 2009
lol
OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009
oh was I suppose to wait?
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
no, not at all.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
see what i mean, LB
mikev - September 29, 2009
but blevins is in and there were pictures of buck and sweeney posted
you mean you haven’t taken care of business yet?
mikev - September 29, 2009
not really my bag, baby.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
since when???
Its the ice man!!!!!
ZigFan31 - September 29, 2009
I love him.
but I’m not sexually attracted to him.
And Travis cut his hair. And I never liked Sweeney.
Leopold Bloom - September 29, 2009
[looks in box for book entitled, "Lanky Relievers and Rangy, Hott Outfielders Are My Bag, Baby -- by Leopold Bloom"]
Nick - September 29, 2009

OakA'sHoney - September 29, 2009

I was thinking it was Monday. Weird, since I did the same thing last week.
iglew - September 29, 2009
