And deservedly so.


But you know what? YEAR 2005
Suck on that Red Sox fans. We got you by one year you jerks
 
Y'know, I look at tonight's game and I wonder what it will take for Mota to be DFA'd. I've led a campaign for his dismissal the minute he joined the Mets; the guy is Armando Benitez lite. All the fixing talk is crap, it's simple with him: he falls in love with his change and when he does throw the fastball he has the aim of a blind porn star. I am tired of that fugazi, #1 Slapfighting champion blowing leads for Glavine (I count 3 of 4 so far this year). I can't blame Heilman being sabotaged by LoDuca crappy throw, Reyes/Castillo not stopping the ball in the 8th, and a 20 ft. swinging bunt that for the grace of rigged groundskeeping stayed fair. But Mota? Tell me there wasn't a man who didn't believe he'd lose the game and I'll show you an idiot. It's starting to be frickin' WIC in here and I can't take that crap.

The Phillies? Seriously? Jesus. Mota for Kyle Farnsworth + Yanks pay 1/2 Farnsworth's salary.
 
Saito = BAAALLLLINN! Was hoping he'd strike out the side, but we'll take a pop up to the catcher and 2 K's (Russ still gets 3 putouts!). Guy is bar none one of the top 3 or so closers in the bigs right now.

Fuck Gagne!

Weaver is ass and the Angels are some fukkin mashers. They just keep coming..

PS: Vlad should be right in that MVP race with A-Rod and Maggs IMO...

The second base umpire should not be allowed to leave Safeco Field alive. Matthews was dead meat, there's no way you could fuck that call up, yet he did.

What about the play at 3rd earlier? Roofles...

On the other hand, Ichiro struck out on that "check swing" before his game-tying double :p

After the Willie Bloomquist call, I never want to hear a Mariners fan complain about a steal call at 2nd base this season ever again.

You're right. But, I used to umpire high school ball, and I'm just stumped at how he missed that call.

Would you like some cheese with that whine? I hear they go great together.

Related: Jeff at Lookout Landing can bitch about the fine folks of Orange County and claim they don't deserve any kind of sports success but at the end of the day this is just a smoke screen fans of losers throw up because they'd rather not face the truth. It really doesn't surprise me that he's a Canadian hockey team fan, since they're probably the greatest purveyors of the callow "bu-bu-bu-but it's not fair they have a good team!!!" mentality.
 
Have to give the Yankees credit, from Aug. 10 until now they have played some of the best teams in the AL and have went 10-8. So even if they drop two to the Sox, they have went .500 over this difficult stretch.

To be fair the crew at LL including Jeff and myself, think that pretty much all Mariner fans are among the worst in sports

I'm 100% OK with self-loathing. Externalizing that shit, not so much.

cant wait to see what kennedy can do.

mariners :lol
 
Ian Kennedy's up for Moose starting this Saturday?

OMEGATON.

Who'd have ever thought that in 2007, going to war for a playoff spot and in a pennant race, the Yankees would be fielding rookies!

Chamberlain, Hughes, Kennedy, Ramirez, Duncan...all rooks, and all fighting with everything they have to push things forward. This truly is YANKIDS FUTURE time. I fully support it, too.

I hope Ian Kennedy is everything he is hyped to be. I hope Hughes keeps working out his rookie kinks and reaches the potential he has shown just about every time he's picked up a ball this year. I hope Chamberlain keeps dominating and I hope Ramirez keeps showing he's no fluke. I hope Duncan keeps smashing hits in the clutch. For the other youngsters - Wang, Cano, Cabrera, and even Betemit, I hope they keep doing well. The vets - Jeter, A-Rod, Posada, Giambi, Damon, Clemens, Pettitte, Rivera and the others - they will do well to educate everyone.

Trial by fire; gotta love baseball!

Weird, Maybe someone in the rotation won't be back next year or someone on the D.L is done permanently (Kuo/Schmidt)?
Click to expand...
I think Kuo is done.

Edit: Good God Penny is sucking.

Edit: Russel Martin with a 2 run jack!

Edit: Good God Penny sucks big balls.
 
Not looking good for Penny today, Guess I can put away my broom. =C


So it's possible we David Wells and Esteban Loaiza starting 2/3 against the Padres this weekend. Not looking good...

Pads nipping at their heels. A nice outing against the Doyers could put them on top of the division.

Ahhh, Yes. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to matter how bad or how well the Doyers are playing because they just seem to destroy themselves against the Madres.


/tries to forget the 5 run 9th inning massacre...NOoOoOoOOOoOoooOO!

They should that picture on every baseball he launches towards home plate. Maybe it would make JD Drew look like even more of a bitch. Oh, who am I kidding!

JD can't help it if he's experiencing his time of the month right now.

That is the first thing a batter sees.

The next thing they see is his windup.

The next thing they see is the ground when Joba screws them into it following a whiff on one of those terrifying sliders.

Joba <3
