finally some peace and quiet.
You're on thin fucking ice my pedigree chums, and I shall be under it when it breaks. Now, fuck off.
Your Ebay should be running first pitch
it’s the last thing they’re expecting ;)

man, jim. cowley was on the score this morning and it was fucking hilarious.
he compared his new baby to orlando cabrera, because it ignores him. and it only got better.

jre reminds me of an american indian in some strange way.
hilarious, nonetheless.

I bet Ozzie called for that bunt too.
So many fuck-ups in this game.
When will Ozzie realize that the only way this team can score is via the longball?

If I was a caterpillar and you were a caterpillar I would metamorphosize into a butterfly so that you could see the vast potential of your great beauty. And then you would change, and we would have changed. And it would be beautiful. Change is beautiful.
tough pitch.

I was watching the Rays play some other team a couple nights ago
and he did the same thing.

probably some shitty team. like the angels or something. no good team would get beat by that guy.

The Cubs would've gone 162-0
Typical Sox…choking motherfuckers can’t finish a perfect season

somehow this game was more fun earlier
i can’t quite put my finger on what has changed to make it so much more unpleasant.
brian anderson would've caught that...
well, i know this is obvious
but its these at bats where Q has to earn the MVP. and he hasnt looked good tonight. if i recall correctly, JD also looked bad when things got tough in September a couple of years ago.
thats it.
and sorry about the douche, thats not usually my style but im a little frustrated right now.

it just occurred to me that baldelli is hitting cleanup for the rays.
i was gonna make a joke about it, but he just called me and told me to shut up.

Yep. Automatic loss.
Just like Lee, Sabathia and King Felix.

right, but especially this one.

See, here's what I meant
Obviously his pitch selection is terrible. He had a 1-2 count, then puts it up and out over the plate. To say it would be anything besides putrid is obviously understating it.
But THAT’S EXACTLY WHY I CHOSE THAT ROUTE! Because it’s so obvious that his pitchers aren’t just “a bit off” that people would perhaps be inclined to not take it seriously.
Now we play the waiting game…
Chip, chip, chip, chip.

but you skip town when the Sox insure the loss? You’re a joke.

Well that was fun...the game thread was more dispiriting than the game which is impressive
I think larry was on to something when he was staying away from game threads
Now help me out
Would it be better to lose by one run or four?
Obviously, if they lose by four, then they’re limp-lumbered pussies who can’t do anything against TB’s bullpen.
But if they lose by one, then they can score a bunch of meaningless runs but can’t deliver when it counts.
Chip, chip, chip, chip.

i think thise three runs to get back into a game late count

Alexei is “out of sorts” because “he has swung at everything that has come his way”
And now he homers

As Zobrist could cause a sudden drop in blood pressure. Other side effects include dry mouth, fatigue, vomiting, massive weight gain, crabs, priapism and death.

whenever he’s not playing against us. i was happy for him when he got traded from the astros to the rays because he got a chance to play in the bigs. i thought to myself “he might be in a crappy team but at least he’s playing.” here we are one year later. who would have thought?

He’s VERY religious. To a scary level where he could kill a clubhouse if he wanted.

One of the things that pisses me off the most...
They lose one of their better bats in Michael Cuddyer and replace him with Denard freaking Span…
Who ends up performing even better than Cuddyer with the bat and he’s better defensively and he has speed. .889 OPS? C’mon…

Gotta admit
I really need to work on games like this not completely ruining my night. I know it shouldn’t affect my mood so much, but it does. Pretty much every fight I’ve gotten in with my girlfriend recently is due to a terrible White Sox collapse.
