First!

Okay, bullpen
Don’t screw this one up!
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Extra marks
for creativity, though.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Woo!
Obvious sarcasm!

Bird!

So
we all still up for the Rays/D’backs World series then?
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
I'm in favor of it.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
I'm so down....
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I guess it could happen
I wouldn’t want to face them, though. I don’t think I’d want to face any of the potential AL playoff teams.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
5 appearances in six days?!?
Did we learn nothing from Chad Qualls at the beginning of the season?
Bob, don’t break your new toy!
Uh oh.....
it’s the ghost…. looking for Randy Johnson.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
It saw
a tall dude on the mound and didn’t know any better.

Dumb bird.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
The klutz is here.
But away from the game. I assume we are still rocking it?
Did my husband tell you I TOTALLY called the Reynold’s home run? ;)
What a crazy random happenstance!
I TOTALLY
did.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
HE TOTALLY
did.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
You?
Oh, he took full credit himself for it!
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
And please dahlian,
learn that his first name is “Jon”....
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
My first instict was "Jon"
but then I convinced myself that I was thinking of someone else named “Jon”.
Actually,
out of anyone, I would have expected you to know that.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Another fly
this time to left.

Our pitchers have apparently decided that outfield needs more exercise today.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Its their polite way
Of fighting body image problems in the dug out. ;)
What a crazy random happenstance!
That's how he pitches.
It’s the one worry about him fitting in at Chase Field – he pitches at the letters and gives up fly balls.
Strikeout, our turn
for more runs.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Me -- almost the exact same reaction
“No, let’s NOT make it six of seven tomorrow….”

Hudson gets himself
a leadoff double.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Hudson, leadoff double.
Nice.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Lead-off double!
And I almost dropped the keyboard. In case you were wondering.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
That's actually EXACTLY what I was wondering.
Was thinking to myself: “Wow, a leadoff Orlando Hudson double. I wonder if Devin almost dropped the keyboard.”
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Happens to a lot of people
I just like to keep everyone updated.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
That would suck
to fish it out of the toilet.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
That would be
But I can’t see the computer monitor from the bathroom anyway, and I don’t think the cord would reach.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Sounds
like you need to fix that problem.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Definitely
A wireless keyboard would help.

Still have problems with the monitor there.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Get a TV
for the bathroom.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
And hook that TV up to the computer?
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
No
hook it up to the cable, and then have faith that what you’re typing on your keyboard is coreadfskj.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
It's portable enough
But I’m not taking the laptop into the bathroom for me.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Oh yes. That would be bad. *ahem* Uh. *shifty look*
I have never done it, I am insulted by your accusation
What a crazy random happenstance!
Hmmm.....
honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever done that before. Weird.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Is it worth it?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Kind of?
I get bored really easily in the bathroom. I usually have magazines, books, etc.
What a crazy random happenstance!
I get bored easily in the bathroom too.
But that’s why I usually just rush in, do my business, and rush out, too quickly to get bored.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
The down fall of having stuff to do
Is I get distracted and am there for much longer than necessary.
What a crazy random happenstance!
I know! Totally!
I used to read books in there, but then I’d end up being there for like 30 minutes, so I went to the other extreme.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I just keep books to read
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
I can't blame that one on you
Yet.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
I hope that when Upton comes back
we’ll give either him or Romero an extra start in two or center to give CY some off days. The guy has started in 109 of 111 games this season.
Agreed.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Yeah
them’s Luis Gonzalez-type numbers.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
It gets better
those two off days were April 13 and April 20.
But at least he hasn’t been struggling since then…
CoJack BB.
First two batters on.

Ojeda up

Yeah Augie!!
The Littlest Ballplayer hits for the Tallest Pitcher?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
And gets a bunt single!
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Or
“The Littlest Hit”, if you will.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
The Crazy Polo?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I've never had
El Pollo Loco. Is it any good?

Augie safe!
8-5!
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Sweet!!

Oh yeah!
That’s the stuff.

Is O-Dawg
ever in a bad mood? I wonder. Seriously.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
If your name is O-Dawg you aren't allowed to be unhappy
Its a rule.
What a crazy random happenstance!
Give me a shot
and I bet I could get him there.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
I wouldn't push it.
I’m not sure what to make of an O-Dawg in a bad mood.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Mark's
3rd hit and 3rd RBI so far.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
We need to have an unbirthday party for him.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Maybe next time we will have manly colors.
Like hunter green and brown.
What a crazy random happenstance!
Reynolds with another single!
9-5!
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Much better than his birthday.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
maybe he ate too much cake on his birthday?
(the cake is a lie)
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
We have cake left
I slaved over a … box! for like 20 minutes! How rude.
What a crazy random happenstance!
As I understand it
There was also some work to mix up frosting colors.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
THERE TOTALLY WAS!
2 green 1 blue and half a yellow!
Skills I say.
What a crazy random happenstance!
I made burgers?
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
They were good hamburgers
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Thank you, thank you
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Did you use worcestershire sauce?
That’s what I always use when I grill burgers.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Nope
just salt.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Hmmm....
try the worcestershire sauce next time. It’s big league, if you will.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I've tried it before
and A-1 and various other add-ins, and though they’re not bad, I like a burger that just needs some salt an a little looooooove.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Well A-1 can only be used
after you take it off the grill. You use the worcestershire sauce by dumping it on while it’s grilling, and the liquid boils away, just leaving the flavor behind.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I like
burgers with salt.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
But
JUST salt?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Guys, watch the OT please..
I know it’s nearing the end of the game, but it’s getting pretty long, okay? When you start reaching the right sidebar, that’s kinda a hint to take it to the chat…

No, you're thinking of me.

That could describe several posters here.

LOL
Naturally, the three stooges all respond.

I guess
that should speak to all three of our egos.

And how.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Yeah we know

As the kishis have heard like 4 times now
It was the song we cut our cake to.
Cause we really are that nerdy and we had CUPcakes so technically the cake WAS a lie.
What a crazy random happenstance!
Happy Unbirthday, Mark!!
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
By the way....
has Mark Reynolds ever been a wonderful surprise over the last 2 years or what??
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
yeah
I remember he came up as a stop gap and word was he was crap in defence/defense
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
Wow....
crap in defence and defense?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I was remaining true to my high grammatical standards
while using your spelling too
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
I know.
I salute your cosmopolitanism.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
"96 MPH, yet he keeps giving up base hits."
Maybe because our team is real good at hitting fastballs?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Jebus....
is that really only the first out?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Walk
Bases loaded for Snyder.
Come on, Chris!
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
CY takes a walk
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Wow....
not only is CY getting hits tonight, but walks too.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Great
to see CY take a walk.
"We...probed them all the way through. They're completely meat." — Terry Bisson
Honestly,
I’d rather see him take a walk than hit a home run. Not in terms of the effect on the game at hand, but because of the effect on his personal longterm development. We already KNOW he can hit homers.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
+1
Dear Josh Byrnes: Please DFA Chris Burke. He can't hit, and probably never will.
by C. Wesley Baier on Aug 5, 2008 12:25 AM EDT up reply actions
Taking it to an extreme
we already know that he can hit homers and .070 ISOBB% isn’t terrible, so the thing I get most excited about is when he doesn’t strike out.
Usually, I’ll just settle for him not swinging at sliders down and away.
So guess what store received it's first Christmas items?
Mine did!
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!

congrats?

Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Yeah, so, you're not excited, right?
I couldn’t tell if that was an excited “guess what” or not.

No, sorry
that was more of a “WTF” kind of statement.

I remember once
seeing Xmas stuff in a Wal Mart or something on display before the start of September, but THIS is pretty impressive.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I was going round with a band.
they all came from Cambridge and would be going home for Christmas.We were talking about how we all loved Christmas so my friends and I organised a full Christmas party, cards(we bought 114 cards and wrote and sent them)decorations, crackers, turkey dinner with the trimmings,the whole thing.
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
Turkey?
Hmmm…. interesting.

i predict that by game 3 of this series
the pirates will have no relievers left and will be forced to use anyone who feels like throwing

Okay
Now I’m starting to feel bad for the Pirates.

Reread that sentence
You are feeling bad for the Pirates. Come on, when did you NOT feel bad for the Pirates?
What a crazy random happenstance!
When Haren is giving up runs early.

When

walked into the other room, cuddled with soco for like a minute caught Snyder’s look and walked back to give the comment. I wasn’t paying too much attention. :)

O-Dawg
gets the GIDP to end the inning, after beginning it with the double.
Thus, the universe is complete.
Ah, the feng shui of beisbol.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Holy crap....
I didn’t even realize that. I should have thrown some Arabic in there, too.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Somehow
I find it hard to believe that NOBODY has ever come back from an 8 run deficit in the bottom of the 8th inning.
JK.

Um....
I would certainly NOT call that “somebody I usually see without clothes on”....

I said far less clothing
and then followed up with shorts. You were the one that brought up the nekked subject!

Tell me more, tell me more,

He's such a swell guy
that he’s even willing to grace us with his presence on t.v.

Why the eff

oh Melvin... com'on....
Lyon?
there’s Rosales, Qualls and even Augie to pitch… but u go with Lyon to “close” this game? =[
Wikipedia is accurate. (citation needed)
And Lyon last pitched Friday.
So it’s not like it’s one of those “our closer hasn’t pitched in a week and we need to get him an outing to keep him sharp” outings.
at this point
i think i would be ok with burke pitching
never mind i take that back i never want to see him in uniform again

It'd be nice
to not have to burn the closer in a 6 run lead, though, especially since his backup was used tonight.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Are you serious?
So… you think that burning your closer and ostensibly your best reliever with an 8 run lead is a GOOD idea?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I don't
but then, you weren’t asking me. I’d be terrible on Jeopardy.

You also
didn’t answer in the form of a question.

Well, if that doesn't work out,

Can you skateboard? Or at least look like a skateboarding dog?

No

Agreed
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.

Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
Oh hush
it was a great offensive outburst and Dan Haren gutted out six innings after a disastrous opening frame.
I don’t get frustrated by the players that are what they are and are trying to make the most of their abilities in a difficult game. I get frustrated by the easily correctable decisions made by a manager that is being paid to take a logical, clear-minded approach to the game at hand..
There was a lot
to be frustrated about, certainly, but then there are some bright spots to be happy about too.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!

My internet went down right after my last comment, so I gave up and went to the grocery store. My wife asked if the game was over, and I said “We’re up by enough runs that either we’re going to win, and I’m okay missing the last inning, or we’re going to lose, and I don’t want to be here to see it.”
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Oh.
See, we all thought that soco had chopped you up and made you into kishi-flavored ice cream.

There was some mention of cannibalism at the party yesterday, so those fears may not be completely unfounded.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
See,
but if we were going to do something like that, I’d much rather it be kishiburgers than kishi ice cream.

Game.
Hairy at the end then I’d have liked, and there were some scary parts, but overall I’ll take it!
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!
This wasn't so much CY "back on form"
so much as CY “better than form”.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Aw.
I missed it. :-(
Home, burnt, but in one piece…except for my bank account. That took a beating this weekend.
Maybe the Diamondbacks should just sign me...

WB!
We’ve missed you.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Welcome home!
Did you hit Joe Torre with a baseball?
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Oh.
Uh, no.
I couldn’t even take my sign in. :-(

No dollar for you.
Wait, was your sign going to hit Joe Torre with a baseball? I don’t understand the connection.
Did you at least yell something mean at Manny Ramirez? I figure you didn’t make him cry.

I was too distraught
over losing my awesome signs to worry about the ball.
I did yell mean things at Manny, but he couldn’t hear me over the Dodger fans drooling over his striking out.

Did you
cheer for Andruw Jones? Just to be contrary to the dirty Dodgers fans?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Tim to celebrate
the win with some kishi ice cream.

Ah crap. *time

I thought
you were just referring to yourself in the 3rd person.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I guess
it could have made sense either way.

Indeed.
It’s one of those rare typo gems.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
He doesn't
Cause he knows it would make me absolutely crazy.
Third person drive me NUTS.
What a crazy random happenstance!
Phil
doesn’t mind so much, so long as the person has earned the privilege.

Tim for me to proofread more
I guess. I get it guys, geez.

See, it makes people sound like the caveman
From Phil of the Future, so you know your name use is funny. :)
What a crazy random happenstance!
But
Phil IS the Phil of the Future.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Uh oh!
Third person drive Liz NUTS! Liz smash stuff!!
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
It isn't entirely funny ;)
I apparently smash things with my shoulder. :D
What a crazy random happenstance!
Not your fists?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Fists
are too gruff for Liz?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I DID notice
that kishi inexplicably seems to have disappeared…..
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
He brought some
for the party yesterday. Whether he made it or bought it, I’m not entirely sure.

Uh, I made it. Yeah, totally homemade. I just put it in those cartons for, um, convenience.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
That was wise.
I’ll bet it looked really professional and everything…
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
They did look classy
I even put those plastic wrappers around the rim, just as a little joke.

Mornin', Hannah!
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Nice to be able to
get some runs tonight. It’s also nice to see CY get on the ball a bit. Let’s keep our foot on the gas tomorrow—we NEED these games after that Los Angeles Manny trade.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
And I know soco
will glare at me for being a negative nancy, but I sincerely hope that this game doesn’t mean that CY is hitting second tomorrow.
Hehe
Duty.
