PrintSan Diego Padres at Arizona Diamondbacks, Apr 18, 2008 6:40 PM PDT
Getting this up late! I thought 2.0 was supposed to automatically do this for us. We're already down by 7. Well at least it's not another low scoring game.
Go Padres!!!

I was wondering where the thread was
I thought we were just going to continue the 1,000+ thread from last night/this morning. Maybe we are still riding that one to hell
We're already there
That’s an Arizona joke.

7-run deficit is exactly the thing we DON'T need.

If two different players both hit for the cycle in the same game
that’s called a bicycle.

Steve Quis: Arizinonian
Before coming to San Diego, Steve was the Sports Director at the CBS affiliate in Tucson, Arizona. He also called six seasons of minor league baseball for Tucson’s Triple-A baseball team, as well as 2 seasons of University of Arizona baseball.from 4SD.comThe University of Arizona graduate is married to (a) fellow Arizona alum…
As if we needed more reason to hate him…

Was too slow to catch up to that throw. Or maybe just wanted to spare him the embarrassment,
Let me just get these out of the way, too
That place smells like chlorine.
Garcia’s Mexican Food is an abomination.
Baxter looks like my high school’s mascot.
Fry’s is an electronics store, not a grocery store.
“Do the Dance” helps me sort out those with chromosomal anomalies, keep it up.
The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.
Fry’s is both here, and agreed on Baxter.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
If you ever make it out this way...
treat yourself to any taco shop that ends in “-bertos.”
Two questions:
Is it macaroni night?
and
Is it 8 or 10 runs for free chalupas? Or was that last season only?
The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.
Couldn't tell ya, and couldn't tell ya.
I do have a question, though…. when I was in SD on business a couple weeks ago, I ate at a great taco shop like a mile outside the gates of Point Loma Submarine Base. I think it was called… Las Lomas? Something like that?
Know anything about it? Their Camarones del Diablo were FANTASTIC.

Thank you.
I was gonna respond today…but I just didn’t have it in me. Figured this would say it all.
Daron Sutton and Mark Grace should be beaten.
Enough with your stolen trophy comedy bit. It’s like the worst SNL skit ever…but 3 hours long.
I was just about to say the same thing
It’s about the most unfunny thing I’ve seen all day. And I watched the first inning.
I wonder...
...do D-Back fans think these guys are entertaining? I mean, am I just biased in thinking that Matty and Mud are 50 times more talented than these two idiots?
Well
having listened to Giants announcers already this season,
yeah. I’d call them decent.
The trophy thing is an ongoing prank.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
In OUR face....

So let me get this straight......
In the past thirty-nine innings of baseball the San Diego Padres have played (give or take), the club has scored a whopping total of 3 runs. That’s bad.
You're preaching to the choir.

Halos sent down Reggie Willits today....
Wonder what it would cost KT to pick him up….I’m wondering what speed would do at the beginning of the order. And not Callix Crabbe “I’m fast but I’m a rule V player speed”. Like someone who can actually hit at the MLB level.
At least it was quick.

It only went one. :)
They stepped on the neck and swiftly bashed with the shovel.
We replied with a weak ‘thumbs-up’

Gotta tip my hat to Maddux there
Total pro for you, going out there and pitching like that for you.Admired it !
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
As much as I hate to do it,
I have to tip my hat to Conor Jackson for following the Joey Cora template and legging out a second triple when he needed two bases for the cycle.
Yes, that’s two kissings of Joey’s ass in one thread.

Gotta agree with Hannah on this one.
I may have strong feelings about the Padres, but I’m a ginormous fan of Greg Maddux. Guy’s probably the classiest pitcher in baseball.
It’ll be a real loss to us all when he retires.

You might be alright after all.

Jim Edmonds= The Suck
I have already had enough of him taking bad angles to balls, getting beat deep over his head, and generally looking like an outfielder whose legs have had their better days.
Why don’t we shake things up- call up Chase, stick him in left, and move Hairy to CF full-time? We need to do something- I think I am going to go crazy if I have to see F8’s turn into doubles and triples in the gap all year.
We've all experienced those delirious moments where one thing leads to another and you find yourself at the end of the night messing around with sheep. It's something we all have in common. -jbox

I'll keep posting this until someone listens
Headley needs to EARN the promotion. We shouldn’t call him up if he’s not hitting in Portland. It sends the wrong message.
I watched all 23 innings and all I got was this lousy signature.
He earned it in spring training
by smashing the hell out of the ball and being the team’s best hitter.
The only reason he was sent down was for him to get more work in LF. It wasn’t a “you’re not ready” demotion. It was a numbers thing. He’s already earned the promotion. I think his struggles right now have way more to do with his mentally focusing on defense than any sort of offensive deficiency.

"It sends the wrong message." To who?
Portland, Oregon. PGE Park. Beavers clubhouse:
Chip Ambres and Craig Stansberry are standing in front of their lockers. Oscar Robles walks up.
Oscar: Did you guys hear the news?
Chip: No. What news?
Oscar: They called up Headley.
Craig: Headley?
Chip: Chase got called up?
Oscar: Yep. Can you believe that shit?
Craig: The guy was unanimously voted the 2007 Texas League Player of the Year, is the club’s number one prospect and led the team in homeruns while batting .349 this Spring…and they think that’s enough to bring him up?
Oscar: I have no idea what they’re thinking.
Chip: Do they realize what kind of message this is sending?

And nobody can accuse me of being one who just agrees with Drama like it’s nothing.
