TrIpLe CrApPiNeSs

You have to accept the bad with the good, the dark with the light.

June 14
Mets 0, Athletics 5
Braves 7, Rangers 2
Pirates 0, Yankees 9


Plus it's cold and rainy. I have a chest cold. Edgy lost a long essay. Joe Christopher still hasn't arrived

Things are pretty crappy. Find some dour pictures. Misery loves company.







I hope this is cathartic.

OE: And I spelled "Triple" wrong!

[Guest cooby]

It's still sunny and hot here and I have to clean.
I have a headache.
I am supposed to be in a parade Saturday

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

They're having a parade in anticipation of cooby's birthday?

[Guest cooby]

Yeah, how about it? I drew the line at wearing the ermine cape though

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Well, it's WAY too hot for ermine. But you will have on a diamond tiara, right?

[Guest cooby]

Oh, yeah...

[MFS62]

Cooby, happy pre-birthday.

WP- is this a new category? I thought the old Triple Happiness was Mets and Red Sox win and Yankees lose.
Since when did the Braves creep into the picture?
Not that it doesn't make sense, but I'm curious if this is an official change.

[Willets Point]

Triple Happiness is a Mets win paired with losses by the Yankees and the Braves.
Triple Crappiness is the exact opposite.
The Red Sox don't enter it.

[Guest Edgy DC]

It's always been Mets win, Braves lose, Yankees lose.

Triple hap can be expanded to quadruple and quntruple by losses by other Met division rivals or wins by other Yankee division rivals, but those have always been the three points in the crown.

[MFS62]

Ah!
So last year during the AL Pennant Chase, when I saw that Boston was being included, it must have been one of those "expansion" times.

Got it.
Its much more fun to root for a Braves loss than a Red Sox win anyhow.

Thanks,

[Guest SI Metman]

So how often has Triple Crappiness occured in the last decade? Probably too often.

[MFS62]

Hey. I'm Larry Bearnarth.
I pitched against him in College.

Pictures of anguish people!

It'll make you feel better!

[metirish]

These guys were pissed when they heard the scores..

(edit)
D'oh!
Had to take those out because they linked to a naughty site and for some reason didn't work. . . didn't want anyone to accidentally go there. . .

but it was a great picture, damnit!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Scarlet may want to resize or realign her images.

Boy those three red X's look sad.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Scarlet isn't sure how to do that. If an admin wishes to do it for Scarlet, that's cool with her.

[Willets Point]

Scarlett's talking like Squid!

[seawolf17]

You know, that Squid is always taking credit for talking like Rickey. Rickey don't get no credit for inventing Rickeyspeak. Rickey knows triple crappiness when Rickey sees it, and Rickey knows Rickeyspeak when Rickey rickeys Rickey Rickey.

[Willets Point]

Mets 1, Mariners 4
Cubs 1, Yankees 8
Braves 6, Reds 1

[Guest Edgy DC]

@$#&#!!

^@$$*$#!!! #$^$%&*@@%&$%!!!!!

[Willets Point]

Thank the Reds for keeping this from being a Triply Crappy Father's Day, but it's still a double flusher and don't feel so good.

Message to the Mets, only YOU can stop this crappiness!!!!

[Willets Point]

On Sunday, the Braves completed their sweep of the Orioles, while the Mets were unable to complete a sweep of the Yankees, which means just one thing:


TRIPLE CRAPPINESS

Nats 3, Mets 2
MFYs 12, Orioles 3
Braves 5, Cubs 1

[Guest Giant Squidlike Creature]

Reclaimed from General Archives. Sadly we may see use for this again this season.

[Willets Point]

I hate to mention it, but this has been a bowel-clenching, Triply Crappy weekend:




I hate baseball.

[Willets Point]

Hate to bust this out so soon, but the Mets lost, the Yanks won, and the Braves won one game of a doubleheader. So that means one thing,

TRIPLE CRAPPINESS!!!



Get it? Craps? Snake eyes!

Oh hell... I'm going to bed.

[Valadius]

Actually, it's more like double and a half crappiness...
