Not so bullish

Bill:
Hey, I went to a no-hittah and a hitting stampede broke out.

 

Doug:
Now I know why they friggin call it a bullpen – Last night's bottom of the 9th felt like I was running down the streets of Pamplona with the sound of hooves on cobblestone gaining on me.

 

Bill:
Hey, Seattle, is that a bull's horn in your pocket are you just glad to see the Red Sox pen?

 

Doug:
Seattle's the worst offense in all of baseball and yet that's how it plays out?

 

Doug:
Talk about a cry for help. Theo are you listening?

 

Bill:
I've got a vision of the future if there isn't some trade deadline movement, and the vision isn't pretty.

 

Doug:
Seriously, noir is fine for film and photography, but keep it away from the Red Sox, mmmmm-kay?

 

Bill:
It's noir enough that the Citgo sign is going dahk.

Why do these kind of games always seem to happen when the Sox play on the west coast? At around 1:00 AM?


I was so tired, during commercials I flipped to some Celebrity Tonight or Access Warsaw show to stay awake. BTW, did you know that the kid on Two and a Half Men makes $250,000 an episode?

how do you lose to a guy with three names from Australia who has been in the Seattle system since 200 with a 6.70 ERA? Ok, technically they didn't lose, but still.

(no disrespect, sdu)

Did you guys notice that Ralph Houk passed? He was living in Winter Haven, Florida.

when the 1 run no hit bid ended, I said thank god now I can sleep. Then saw the news this am and was glad I slept through it. Kind of like how its nice to pass out as opposed to puking then passing out.

+1 on Jeff's comment.

Me and the hubby there, thinking the baby was gonna come with no hard labor. Thinking he was going to get his first game in, in a respectable 2 and a half hours. Who knew it was going to be a 4 hour 13-inning shit fest? Me wondering what kind of charges they'd bring me up on for punching the douche behind me in his no-no hole for gooching the no-no starting at the top of the sixth. Powder blue hat wearing wannabe Northwest style guido tosspot.

damn pseudo - how do you really feel. I'm not feeling it over heaah:)

Worst thing? Couldn't have one of those gorgeous $8 beers to calm the nerves cause I was driving. Doing it all again tonight though. Yippee!

you could have had one $8 beer, no? Its all a matter of proper training I think. Gotta keep the alcoholic training regimen up so you can function properly while sitting, standing, talking, and yes, driving home, with a buzz on. Not advocating drinking and driving per se, but sometimes you just can't leave your car where its parked. and sometimes you're just fucking thirsty and happen to have $8.

$8 beer. Feh. Why not try one of these (which just happen to be the greatest thing ever to spring from mankind's brain):

A beer that tastes like whiskey?! Genius. Belushi missed so much going so early.


Someone should give a bottle to MDC. Is in in Pawtucket yet?

Wink, I'll take the weasel for $765 to win.

Last call's in the 7th, and I needed that damn thing somwhere around the 11th.

Seattle didn't exist in 200, back then it was the Mediterranean league:

West Division final standings
1) Rome
2) Celtic Barbarians north of hadrian's wall (still better looking than the 1986 celtics)
3) Teutones/Visigoths (present day Germany)

East:
1) Han Dynasty
2) Parthians
3) Hindu Kushians (India)

The World Series did not take place in 200 (Rome vs. Han China) due to team travel difficulties: The Silk Road closed due to Hittite raids.

I tuned in just before Lackey lost his no hitter.


I stayed through the bottom of the 9th shit show.


I fell asleep in the bottom of the 11th.


I think I'm doing it wrong.

Try changing hands, Kaz.


I've got to go into a nice, long, end-of-the-week meeting now. So refreshing, so enjoyable. Anyway, have a great weekend all. Hopefully we'll have something fun to yak about on Monday.

Thanks Jason O.

The second half of the season,

Sox in rare form,
