Around SBN: Jeremy Lin Sets Assist High In Easy Win Over Sacramento

Smells Like Padres in Here - Tuesday Edition

  Your 2008 San Diego Padres MVP

Gerut_medium

 

This thought was expressed by several people last night:  if we have to win games at this point, at least it's against Arizona.

Krasovic clearly reads GLB.

Hayhurst will go again.

The Padres and the Eugene Emeralds agree to stay friends.

Question #2 in this week's mailbag may be my favorite one ever.

Kyle Blanks went nuts yesterday.

Chad Reineke takes on Brandon Webb tonight.  Remember - tonight is Drama's Good Time Old-Timey Thread.  Come one, come all and remember what it was like when we didn't completely suck.  Game time is 7:05pm PDT.

Agreed.

Question #2 was one hell of suggestion. I’m sure the guy who made it is probably fat too.

Question #2 in the mailbag...

The answer may be as good as the question:

“I don’t see how moving games to Qualcomm Stadium will help the team in any way and I don’t think it will be the draw you think it will be — unless, say, Stone Temple Pilots play a free show afterwards.”

Dear Mr. Brock,

        Thank you for submitting your resume. Your knowledge of today’s current music scene is incredibly in-depth. While we enjoyed the articles you submitted featuring Limp Bizkit and Creed, unfortunately we don’t have room on our staff for your talents. We’ll keep your resume on file in the event we have an opening on our staff in the future. Thanks again.

Signed,

Rolling Stone Magazine, Blender, Filter, Billboard

How you gonna compare Stone Temple Pilots to Creed or Limp Bizkit?

In other news... Padres are 48-76 when tied at the top of the first inning.

Uhhhh

You been following them at all recently?

I am the virus, are you the cure? I am morally, I'm morally impure. I am a disease and I am unclean. I am not a part of Dex's well-oiled machine. GLB nation, assimilate me. Take me in your arms and set me free. I am part of a degenerate elite...dragging our society into the streeet...into the abyss and to the sewer...don't you see? Dex just told me, he told me on the GLB.

Hahaha

STP was just in Atlanta this past weekend. Weiland was TRASHED.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

STP was awesome.

Weiland is a mess.

omg

That’s so awesome.

“Storms” = “Weiland taking an entire row of Jager bombs and getting so destroyed he has to cancel his next show”

This is the equivalent of a baseball player sitting out of a single game with “abdominal pains,” when they really just have a horrific case of runny mud-butt, or “dehydration” which we all know is “Tim Lincecum getting smashed on his dad’s O’Douls.”

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

I enjoyed the story about the AZ show where he fell backwards into the drums.

We've all been there

You more than most, but still.

I have to say...

I’m not a fall down guy.

If I got really hammered at a party my friends knew I would do one of two things:

1. Find a place to blow chips and then find the nearest bathtub to pass out in.

2. Pull the rip cord. I’d tell everybody I was going to the bathroom and then sneak out and find a cab to stumble into. Usually I’d have the cab drive through a Jack-In-The-Box to get a bag of tacos.

2 is a trusty move

The Houdini. Often followed by a “what happened to you?” phone call the next day.

by Dalton on Aug 26, 2008 11:26 AM PDT up reply actions  

The best Houdini ever:

I was out with a bunch of friends one night at The Moldy Box in PB. We’re hanging at a table on the patio drinking and my friend mentions that Frank Sinatra is playing the Sports Arena that night. I finish my drink, announce I’m going to the bathroom, sneak out front and hop into a cab to the Sports Arena. I bought a single from a scalper and got to see Rickles open for Sinatra.

by Drama on Aug 26, 2008 11:38 AM PDT up reply actions  

That's pretty remarkable

The most I’ve ever accomplished after silently bailing on a group of people is the aforementioned Jack in the Box trip. Kudos.

Old Timey Thread

I think I’m going to go to the actual game.

Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the world. -Babe Ruth
