I can't believe no one is here

to witness the beginning of the Chad Whatshisname Era.

by 'Eaters on Jul 22, 2008 4:31 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I'm with you

let him swing!

...especially after his batterymate was pegged

by TheRevRun on Jul 22, 2008 4:46 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

wow

that would be something

by TheRevRun on Jul 22, 2008 4:50 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

bunt foul twice

does Jake do that so we’ll let him swing?

by TheRevRun on Jul 22, 2008 4:45 PM PDT   0 recs

uh no...

he bunted into a K

The Wolf is gone...

sad to say, Randy Wolf was nails for this team the first six, seven weeks of the season… though I am more upset by the D-backs acquisition of big Jon Rauch

by TheRevRun on Jul 22, 2008 4:52 PM PDT   0 recs

true, and surprisingly so

i was ready to put a fork in him, but he’s still such a gamer.

I have to admit

Giles has been my favorite Padre since ‘04. He’s consistent and professional and a great clubhouse presence.

Peavy? Ugh.

When does Clay start again?

Clay is only around

because KT is in Idaho

I’m convinced

alright time to drive home from the office

hopefully the Padres don’t stink it up when i’m gone. although they have a tendency to play well when i’m gone. and i’m always here.

oh shit i may be the antichrist.

Khalil hit a double

can you cure us of this fate

by Axion on Jul 22, 2008 5:13 PM PDT   0 recs

hasn't he had

like one hit in every game the last few days…?

and I agree with Mudd I am not a fan of the crooked hat and i too tell people to fix it except i’m mean about it

You know I could go for a sandwich, but uh, I'm not gonna open two jars. I can't be opening and closing all kinds of jars.

I have no problems with the crooked hat

express yourself. wear your hat crooked D-train, CC, the rest. iron the bill flat Chad Cordero, that’s a cool look. hell, grow big Bob Marley dreads if you hit .300/30/100 every year like Manny.

by TheRevRun on Jul 22, 2008 5:37 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Heat Bell

anybody else seen the hat he dons in the eighth? when he pitches like he does, he can bend the bill of his cap into a w for all i care

whatever it takes to channel Shooter Beck, RIP

I think everyone’s pretty much given up for the summer. Gonna be quiet around here for the next two months.

All tied up

That’s what I like to see when I come back to the OT.

No, I mean '09.

Jake is only good in odd numbered years.

You need to ask?

You watch No Reservations?

Oh of course

Love Bourdain. Love that guy.

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 22, 2008 7:37 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Haven't seen that one yet

It’s on the DVR, I think.

My favorite recent one was the one in Namibia where he had to eat the wild boar and he almost puked.

The Colombia one was great.

You read Kitchen Confidential?

I haven't read it

We have it in here somewhere I think, but haven’t read it.

ACE OF CAKES

LOVE THAT SHOW!

You know I could go for a sandwich, but uh, I'm not gonna open two jars. I can't be opening and closing all kinds of jars.

by C8LIN B on Jul 22, 2008 7:38 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

me too

and makes me wonder what i would want them to design and how much it would cost

geez

ridiculous i guess i better decide if i need a cake in two years now lol

Exactly

We just wanna order one now so we can look forward to it.

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 22, 2008 7:44 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

well

2010 is when the Padres are supposed to be great right? It can be a Padre cake!

My wife says I'm wrong

Not a complete 2 yr wait – but there’s a ton of weeks in 2009 that you can’t get a cake because they are already booked. (All booked for 2008) And she says its a thousand bucks minimum for a cake.

She’s a big fan:)

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 22, 2008 7:52 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

dang a thousand bucks minimum

although they are amazing cakes

I wonder if Headley had hustled

if we would have had a chance.to get him at the plate.

Just watched the replay...

...The Savior was running. But he didn’t really have a shot.

Running or jogging?

Whatever… Wins and Losses don’t matter.

Tomorrow

We should do an over/under contest on number of HR’s Maddux gives up in that bandbox.

by Drama on Jul 22, 2008 7:45 PM PDT   0 recs

Greg's through with hard-luck losses.

He’s decided if he’s going to lose, he’s gonna earn it.

The boys will score 7, but Greg + BP will give up 9.

Buster Olney

Says a trade of Maddux to the Dodgers is very possible and that the team is shopping Brian Giles and Cla Meredith and gearing everything towards 2009.

by Drama on Jul 22, 2008 7:54 PM PDT   0 recs

Brian isn't going anywhere.

It costs another, what, $3 million to trade him? And we haven’t got anything better to replace him with.

by maestro876 on Jul 22, 2008 8:59 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

If they are shopping Giles

they aren’t gearing anything towards ‘09.

by Winfield's Ghost on Jul 23, 2008 6:14 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I didn't understand that part either.

I only mentioned it because it’s Buster. Buster is a good guy, knows the Padres well and is usually pretty reliable with his information. (He was the one that had the Wolf to the Astros story first and he must have had a damn good source to put that rumor out there.)

He’s no Ken Rosenthal or Scott Miller, but hey…
