Smells Like Padres in Here - Monday Edition

by Winfield's Ghost on Sep 8, 2008 6:14 AM PDT

I think I've made it clear that I am only rooting for losses the rest of the way, but it was really great to see CY go the distance for the first time ever.

Headley thinks the season is long. Wait until next year, pal.

I found this somewhat amusing. The song they chose for us is right here. (It looks a bit like she's in the old Tower Records down on Sports Arena, doesn't it?) I feel confident that you people can come up with something better than that.

Cha Cha takes on Maddux and the Dodgers tonight. This should be an interesting game because....wait. It won't be interesting at all. Never mind. Game time is 7:05pm.

They're watching . . .

Nationals fans now realize what is on the cusp, and more and more fairweathereds up there are quickly jumping on the wagon and learning Stephen Strasburg’s name, so they can brag about how they know so much about him, and heard about him “a long time ago,” when draft-time rolls around.

I wish the fans could dictate how the players play the game for teams that are doing poorly, because if that were the case, when the Padres and Nationals tangle up, we’d be seeing softball floaters being pitched, nobody swinging, and the game being decided by bean-balls, ejections, unearned runs, and eventual forced forfeits. Kind of like in that old Nintendo game, Base Wars with the bionic robots; if your friend decides to be a dick and chooses the custom team, and hits 40 homers in the first inning, you can still win by endlessly plunking his players and eventually killing them. Sure, the final score would be like 178-0, but you’d still be the victor for having more players alive.

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

That episode was just on

Rows of lights to illuminate lines
Why don't they turn them off and let us see night
Drove crazed, grooming my lies
You can't look in on one way eyes

How the hell do they figure Trevor "fell apart" this year?

He’s had a few rough outings this year, but so have a lot of closers. He’s also pitched well. I hate knee jerk crap like that. Research your baseball before you talk shit, whoever wrote that.

Bigger kick in the balls:

Kapler’s home run, or the last 2 seconds of the Charger game?

I think we're all still in shock

that a Charger’s site now exists, so we talk Bolts on the GLB.

I hope that this will prove to the person that is putting electric shocks to my head that I am an alien. I am declaring this so that I am not in any violation of any world or international laws of the earth as I am showing by this admission that I am in fact an alien."

haha - love it

del-homo…

my favorite line right now is “no homo”. Apparently, should one say or do anything that could be remotely considered homosexual (not that there is anything wrong with that!) one can say “no-homo” after the fact, and it acts as a disclaimer! Kindof in the same way we (over) use TWSS!

For instance, when Winfield’s Ghost said “I enjoyed them both, doubled over in pain” He probably should have added… well you get it.

Listening to the commentary of a football game is a particularly good way to over use this expression!
