[Guest Kid Carsey]

Gmta, now if you'll excuse me I have a thread to delete.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Hopefully we can get this one in before Joe Torre's brother dies.

Did I type that or just think that?

[Guest OlerudOwned]

According to that lineup, we better tell the lefties to pull and the righties to go the other way.

I don't know why you're so attracted to this foolish position. He could just have easily been clueless. "Mike and Chris, I tell you and you can put it in the bank, because I am a decisive, forthright, highly cerebral leader, winner , and deciderer, even if I do say so myself, that this shall be done. To so say, and then to do otherwise, would suggest that I don;t have a fucking clue to my name, so rather than explain that I'm still thinking about it to you, I shall declare: the die has been cast, and let those you dare mock me for indecisive shillyshallying do so if I should go back on this, my sacred word. So let it be written, so let it be done! Selah!"

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

And the nuttiness is underway.

[nymr83]

yeah he straight up lied to them this afternoon.

hahaha Chavez guns down Damon trying to stretch it into 2. fuck you!

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Endy the Great.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Settle down, Ollie.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Not pretty but I'll take it.

[Batty31]

Perez gets out of a jam...time to exhale.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Good 1, Evil 0

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Speaking of good over evil, Asshead Clemens gave up a no doubt about it home run to the first baseman of the Fort Myers Miracles.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Doing some cleaning while watching the game, and I just dragged up my completely authentic* Mo Vaughn jersey. Amazin' what you can get for twenty bucks on clearance.

Perez leads off the home 3rd with a bloop hit. Funny swing, serious results.

*- Aside from the fact that mine is shirt-sized, not tarp-sized.

[Batty31]

So were you making use of the Vaughn jersey while cleaning? It would make a good dust rag.

[nymr83]

fuckin matsui

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Ah crap.

Much like the New Zealanders, we've got the All Blacks.

Dave's ugly shoes have ups.

[nymr83]

CHAVEZ, KABOOM.

[seawolf17]

ENDY!

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Time to kneel before the shrine of Endy.


Wow, great defense by Pettitte.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Go-Go, it's a one-run game and A-Rod's on deck. Go for that shit.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wow. Fanning the Rod on three straight.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Reyes not going to get many acting gigs.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I still think that's a legitimate play... assuming that the ball is actually dropped, rather than caught, transferred, cocked, put down, and picked up again.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I wouldn't mind seeing more fearsomeness out of Bel Train. Or Delgado. Or the whole middle of the order.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Matsui=funny.

[seawolf17]

I would have liked an extra run there.
