Neither does Garcia!  WHOA!

[1] Beat me to The Scorpion King burn. Very nice. Great success.

I’m setting the over/under on this Friday evening west coast game at 40 posts. In other words, it’ll be over before the rally page.

Game underway.
Pin’s comment prediction - moreso.

We need someone to tell us how they felt about that rain delay wednesday.

[5] I hear rain delays can be the most exciting of times.

Almost a great play by the auld fella.

Centipedes can run very fast.

Or maybe it’s more of a scurry than a run.

The Yankees have literally never done anything for me.

“Almost a great play”.... so sad…

Can we get the third out so I can go to bed?

Nova off to a great start.

(10) No. Fire up one of those samovars buddy.

Scout is smarter than McCarver.
Not by much, but - still…

Hard to watch the news today.

Wow.  That almost sucked.  Reddick and Cespedes are for real.

Also we will beat 40 posts.  I promise not to make too many

Bite your tongue Coney.  Beckett ha ha.

We need to filibuster to the rally page (2?)

Ugh.  I knew Milone would be tough.

[16] I would like you to know that [3] was stated in hexadecimal.

[19] It’s a fargin trick question. There is no rally page against the likes of Milone.

The A’s lineup mostly really sucks though.  They could probably imporove significantly with modest trades for players who wouldn’t be an upgrade to most teams and therefore could be had cheap.

EDIT: sorry for the double.  of course this doesn’ count towards the 40.

(24) Your Cheatin’ Heart.

Now that’s more like it.

[25] old thurm, you know me too well. 

I confess I root for this team when they don’t play the Yanks, partly because one of my better friends and a guy I work with every day is a huge fan.

The win looks out of reach lets try to keep the pythag strong.

Tired of seeing the Yanks miss 87 mph fastballs right down the middle… Good night and good luck…

I’m no mathematical genius, but I think our pythag would improve if we could take the lead in this game, as I understand how the numbers work.

Yay Nunez.  Post inflation.

Definitely out of reach now.

I have a lawn chair with a better arm than Martin.

I blame whoever pointed out we had won 9 straight at Oakland.  Thats even worse then talking! about a no hitter but not as bad as talking about fight club.

Nice barehand by Nova.  And on the bounce, so hopefully no injury…

Or Seven.

38- Ed Whitson.

OJ Simpson

Oh Teix. So fat. So slow. So stupid. So out.

Jorge lives.  Our recent baserunning.

Getting sporadic updates - how bad did Teix Podado that?

In defense of Teix, that was a really nice barehanded play with a very quick release and a strong accurate throw.

In defense of Teix, he can’t help it if his head still thinks he has the speed of a 19 year old. Teix….should never try to beat a throw not being made by Johnny Damon or the corpse of Jason Varitek. Maybe not even then, depending on the age of the corpse.

No way.  That was on the third bas coach, whoever that asshole is.  I’ starting to wonder if he’s responsible for some of the horseshit we’ve been seeing.

Smooth fielding there.

Nova’s toast.  Cream cheese.  This loss is a lock.

[47] Thomson has been doing a horseshit job for years now. Too many questionable sends. Too many questionable holds.

Tex was out by a mile.

Is it still Thompson?  I assum ed he’d been fired for horseshittery.

Second kind of crap start in a row for Nova.  Dead arm?

Really infuriating.  Thompson ought to know who the pitcher and runner and game state is.  I assume he’s one of Joe’s guys and maybe not worth it for Cash to pick a fight and fire, but come on.

I believe in this team’s ability to score three runs in the time allotted.

Teix is slow. You don’t bet on Teix beating the throw. You might bet on the throw being offline.

3 runs would be kind of nice. I’d be pleased with two.

Nice job by Nova that inning.

I wish Alex wasn’t totally fucking cooked. But he is.

yeah.  Arod is toast, burnt crispy toast.

7th inning for nova?  i think I would.

[61] Over Qualls ? Every time.

not that impressed with Nova in this park and with this lineup, but he got strnger and 2 runs is pretty good.

Dear Robbie,

Whatever sign Thompson gives, do the opposite.

Thanks in advance.

fun fact: when I google for the zip code of my town of birth, the first website is a list of registered sex offenders.

Oh goodie, another OF’er to the DL.

What does GDsay about the strike zone?  Seeslike the Yanks hate it.

Don’t you have to PH for Nix pthere?

[68] I haven’t been paying too much attention to it - ARod got jobbed in an early at bat, for sure. Haven’t noticed much that’s been aggregious.

Sure am glad we went into the season without making a try at Centipede.

Swisher is becoming more fragile as he ages.

I let him finish.  hat curve looks good.

[71] and he was pre-owners want to pocket more cash new CBA international free-agent restrictions, right?

Logan is great.  The next Mike Stanton.

Martino!

Tease begins an inning early.

Yay pythag

Sorry, forgot Arod was up.

My Qualls-sense is tingling.

Wow was I wrong, Girardi playing for the win.

Arod loves those situations however…....

Time machine tasks
1-kill Hitler
2-bring back 2009 Arod

Whoa.  triple to maye the worst hitter in the league.  Maybe better tomhave conceded with Qualls.

CT squared

Cano entering his prime is something special.

Lose it quickly or let Qualls do the honor?

Fuckizng hell.  Reddick and Cespedes are 7-10.

Should A-Rod have been able to reach that grounder?

Expected.

Why are Eppley and Rapada pitching the highest leverage at bats?

Could have been worse Qualls losing in the 11th and another 45 minutes of our lives wasted.

96 who was left? He wasn’t using Soriano.  Either Robertson for two or what he did.

If Swisher goes DL then Fukudome?

Townies’ Pythag takes a hit.
