Never know if dex is being sarcastic or not

but I agree. At the risk of being called fairweather, or not a real fan, or whatever, I’m so disappointed in our play. It’s starting to get really difficult to watch this team, and I must admit that there’s just no excitement on my part.

Bring on the Fire Sale

Padres fans are the old lady

The Princess has really good intentions and she is, by all accounts, a wonderful person, but we have good intentions too. Rather than just turn our backs on the team, we’re choosing to boo and not let our fellow fans allow the beautiful princess to marry f_ckin’ Humperdink.

good intentions?

The princess had love in their hands, and she gave it up. True love saved her in the fire swamp!

We need to lose the next three

That would be would be 50 losses in 82 games and would put us exactly on pace to lose 100 games. The Seattle series is going to be key because as it stands now, they are going to find a way to beat us to 100 losses. This team HAS to get serious about sucking and put up a fight against the one team that is trying to suck more. They HAVE to find a way to get swept by Seattle. I’m tired of the excuses. No one on this team is any good. There is no reason for us to win a single series the rest of the way.

This team deserves 100 losses.

Dear Diary

Today, WG made me cry.

I completely agree with WG's statement

or at least I do until we play the NL West, get a few series wins and are back in the thick of things.

No more series wins

This is what I’m talking about. No more losing 7 in a row and then winning a series and providing a tiny, tiny tendril of hope. This team needs to forget winning a series for the next few months. They need to commit to sucking. I wanna see AG sit a few games. I wanna see McAnulty at shortstop. I wanna see Khalil in the leadoff spot. I wanna see Trevor start a couple of games. I wanna see Thatcher in the seventh.

KILL THE HOPE. COMMIT TO SUCKING.

That's a step in the right direction

If Roger Craig is unavailable, then yes, let’s talk to Boch.

i just started laughing so hard that coffee came out my nose

at the thought of McAnulty at short.

can we have barrett in right field???? i wanna see juan pierre stretch a base hit to right in to a triple!

I think you need to start a petition

DePodesta in his comments today said that putting up the white flag is a tough sell to the fans. You need to convince the FO otherwise.

i'd probably

enjoy watching the games more if that were to really happen. that’s not a bad idea at all WG.

"i kinda feel like nevin and klesko were some fling we (the padres) had in the past and now realize were a bad idea and are embarrassed about."

Way more entertaining

Instead of giving AG the day off, let’s put him in CF and watch him “run down” balls hit to the alleys.

"Did you see that HR the Padres last night?"

“I know, what kind of crap is that. You gotta get under that ball a little more. At least give the outfielder a chance to catch it! And how come our pitchers can’t throw any balls off the plate anymore. These guys will be lucky to lose 95 at this rate.”

LET BUD BLACK MANAGE!

Oh. We’ve already got that one covered.

Want to gaurantee 100 losses? Hell, 110?

Shawn Estes has a new job. Wherever Aid goes (dugout, home, shopping, etc), Estes has to carry him up and down the stairs.

Buddy has me convinced

That pitchers truly do make bad managers. Gimme the Mike Scioscia’s and Lou Pinella’s. Heck at this point I’ll take Charlie “Da Gangsta” Manuel

What a perfect clip!

Dex made me laugh really hard with this, I do feel just like that old lady!
Like RBS, I am having a lot of trouble watching the Padres this year, even though I wasted my money on the satellite tv package. I am rooting for the 2009 Padres at this point. I really hope they’ll have a center fielder.

This lady is obviously not Gey.

I think he'll be okay today

He wiped the webbing of his glove on PMac’s face before the game, so it’s all sticky now.

That's Clutchberry to you

You see that hit he got on Tuesday after his cough failed cough bunt attempts?
