Smells Like Padres in Here - Thursday Edition

This one time I went to Magic Mountain and I got on a roller coaster. It went up and down and up and down and I had no idea what would happen next. It was fun.

I am not enjoying the Padre roller coaster, though.

The new guys have provided some spark. We must've needed some spark on the bench last night. (At the bottom here, you will note that Rusch declined his assignment and has been set free. Free like a bird who can't get anyone out.)

The human cesspool that is Jay Mariotti has his say on Edmonds.

Khalil and his sister went to church.

The NYT takes a look at the success of this year's Marlins.

This is from the current issue of SI and while the story is about the Brewers, there is a very funny part in it about involving the Pads and Mike Cameron.

Today Maddux goes against Ryan Dempster, who I always call "Ryan Dumpster" by mistake. Weird. DAY GAME ALERT!!! Game time is 11:20am PDT.

Edmonds

supposed to be in the lineup today. IN THE CUBS’ LINEUP. Cool. Good thing BB will send out the afternoon squad. I think Tony Clark may be in center today.

Me fail English? That's unpossible!

It's official

Mike Cameron hates us.

And seriously

This man needs a bowl of soup and a haircut, stat.

The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

Everytime

I read quotes by KG, I’m so incredibly impressed. He’s beyond humble and is incredibly articulate and concientous.

Oh, and can we free Luke Carlin? We win when he starts. So let’s start him more.

why i hate jay mariotti

1. shows up on my tv every week day, constantly confusing “facts” with “his opinion.”
2. once begged wikipedia to remove the page about him because he didn’t like it.
3. refuses to enter baseball clubhouses in chicago, even though he covers both teams – claims he “fears for his life.” kind of a problem for a sportswriter.
4. bad dye job

Why I hate Jay Mariotti

His face
His voice

I like that Mike Cameron story

The Padres and their stuffed animals. What are we going to do with them?

Something I just heard on baseball tonight

So take it for what it’s worth. But if you don’t think that PED’s helped hitter’s mash homeruns? MLB is on pace for ONE THOUSAND less HRs than in 2006.

Me fail English? That's unpossible!

I wish they'd bring back PEDs

Stupid ballplayers getting caught. Come on. Start hitting them out.

I wish they'd bring back PEZs

those things were tasty, fun and always a good conversation piece. If gaslamball started to sell Dex “PEZs” Dispensers, I would buy a case. Especially if they would fit my vicodine.
