Open Thread: 9/28, Padres vs. Pirates
Pittsburgh Pirates at San Diego Padres, Sep 28, 2008 1:05 PM PDT
Fare thee well Padres. I guess we've been a little too negative around here in recent weeks, but so it goes. Here's a positive topic for the Open Thread before the game starts. What was your favorite memory from this season?
I don't have one. Just kidding, mine was... okay I'll have to think of one, because there are too many to chose from.
GO PADRES!!

Totally agree
I watched all those games and I remember feeling hopefull that they stil could turn the season around. I was wrong but I enjoyed that stretch nonetheless.

Mike Mussina going for 20th win today

“If Mike Mussina is able to secure his 20th victory on Sunday, he would become the oldest pitcher to do so since Jamie Moyer won 21 games at age 40 for the 2003 Mariners, and he would also be the oldest first-time 20-game winner. Only eight pitchers have won 20 games after their 39th birthday.” via MLB.com

Hey, not so loud
KT’s gonna try to sign him if you make him sound any older.
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
I love Moose
I think today would be his 270 win. I hope he tries for 300.

Even better knowing
That sweep of the Mets is keeping them out of the playoffs.

I don't know if I was delusional in March but I thought they would at least be at .500 at season's end.
2009 seems really far away.

My favorite moment this year is not being the Mets
The Padres season was over in like May….this is way way way less painful than being shot in the heart twice, at home, by the Marlins.
This is what I’ve been looking forward to all season—-the off-season. I’m interested to see how this extremely bright and talented front office responds to this abject failure.
what a positive message
I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone.

sorry i missed the OT
i totally agree with tec before saying my favorite moment of the season was the Mets sweep, i was there for the TC homer off Wagner.
awesome times.
this place made the season worth while, so i’ll say thanks now, since i’m inevitably getting banned tomorrow lol.
