GameThread, 4/11: Padres vs Dodgers

Crackerjackdex2_tiny by Dex on

San Diego Padres @ Los Angeles Dodgers


Jake Peavy and his dirty hands face the Dodgers today. I couldn't tell what the big deal was with the dirty hands. It seems kind of straightforward to me that if you're outside, rubbing your hands with dirt and rosin and constantly dipping Skoal or whatever he dips, you end up getting your hands dirty. What was the big deal? Then I realized that Dodger fans all work pansy desk jobs with perfectly manicured fingernails on their sanitized Apple laptops and hairless bodies. So of course they wouldn't understand that doin' work isn't sanitary so it must be cheating.

Crazy Dodger fans.

GO PADRES!!!

Jerry Coleman's Book

If anyone hasn't gotten it yet, get it soon. It is AWESOME. If anyone wants to know more about it, i'll write a diary about it.

Big obstacle

We'll skip that one

what's the second rule?

Jerry

On killing a cow at a slaughterhouse, "I figured it was going to die anyway, so I'd give it a shot. I tried it. I hit the damn thing in the eye. I was a mess."

Have you read it all yet?

Its like a stream of consciness (sp?) of Jerry Coleman anecdotes. So funny and so awesome. He sometimes remembers something and goes off an a tangent story which is also hilarious.

Great Giles

You take the ball right off the plate for ball 3, but you swing at the ball at your feet for Strike 3.

His new haircut is so HOT.

Look at the soil around Des Moines, Stuart. You can't build on it; you can't grow anything in it. The government says it's due to poor farming. But I know what's really going on, Stuart. I know it's the queers. They're in it with the aliens. They're building landing strips for gay Martians, I swear to God.

Wasn't that whole Penny mess in '06?

That was the night that the entire section 309 or 311 became a big ol bar brawling section complete with folks tumbling down over chairs. I was sitting in my old section 231 watching it all unfold and vowing to never go to a Dodger game again.

Go pull a hamstring, Jim.

Seriously, it's going to take an injury for Buddy to bench his ass. At least he doesn't have George Costanza's gortex jacket on under his jersey tonight.

Twice

we swang at ball 4 this inning!! At least we made Mrs. Drama throw 28 pitches.

Penny after the 3rd Out

Did I imagine seeing him try to do his best Jake impression??

Pumping his fist, then yelling as he was heading to the dugout.

Adrian

probably still couldn't scored on a single. We worked him for a good 30 pitches though.

GIDP

that could have been much worse. Jake needs to get some more spit on the ball.
