A's wikipedia page
The “Athletics” name originates from the late 19th century “athletic clubs”, specifically the Athletic of Philadelphia. They are most prominently nicknamed “the A’s”, in reference to the blackletter “A”, a trademark of the team and the old Athletic of Philadelphia. This has gained very prominent use, and in some circles is used more frequently than the full “Athletics” name. They are also known as “the White Elephants” or simply “the Elephants”, in reference to then New York Giants’ manager John McGraw’s calling the team a “white elephant”. This was embraced by the team, who then made a white elephant the team’s mascot, and often incorporated it into the logo or sleeve patches.

Before Gus and Hrhthyhm trash the place
Things I learned here today:
1. SPods is getting on base several times per game, and providing much needed chemistry.
2. The Sox have a very tough June schedule.
3. Kenny has invited Frank to pose for a statue in a grass skirt.
I’m sure there’s more, but I forget.

Not sure I would call our June schedule very tough.
However I feel it might cause some problems especially vs. MIL, LAD, and the most important series with the 5 straight games against DET. There really isn’t much margin for error moving into July. I hope we can pull off a 27-12 record moving into the All-Star break. That would make me happy.
Yes. Playing at a 112-win pace for the next 39 games would be somewhat satisfactory.
by The Actual El Guapo on Jun 2, 2009 7:07 PM CDT up reply actions
Never said it would be easy, I just hope we can.
If we can pull off 25-27 wins in June, with most of those against DET and CHC, I would be thrilled.
They only play 29 games in June.

You mean from my previous post?
I think we might have trouble @ MIL and then when we face LAD. I also don’t know what to make of the 5 straight games against DET. I don’t think think it will be super tough, but it might cause some troubles. I really think the series against DET will show us what we are made of this year. That can give us the momentum we need going into the All-Star break.
You are bad!

The thing is, Wise REALLY can't hit and he is worse in the field
I know Anderson isn’t good, but Wse has an OPS of .385 versus .704 for BA this season. I think their career OPS’s are both around.660 but BA’s is still higher (I think). Anyway, there’s no reason to play Wise over BA unless the pitcher REALLY sucks against lefties.

I think that one was intentional...
Ed Farmer: "Is it raining in here?"
Steve Stone: "I've made an egregious mistake."
Wow. That's a big fail.
The that’s racist gif is like a 10th that size.

And it usually works.... :)
I think it's funny to picture them as completely different characters. One is Big and one is Hairy. But neither are both.

i don't really consider a raspberry from sliding into home an injury

Best reason to suspect Betemit's a heaping pile of dookie: Joe Morgan's knob-slobbing of him, saying how much he's loved him since the beginning....after hearing that, I knew I would hate him forever.

FL manatees are the least graceful of the many state manatees.
So you’re not really being fair to Wilson.

i was about to call bs because i couldn't believe they'd pitch around him before holliday
but it looks like it’s true.
i literally am in disbelief that they pitched around cust to get to holliday.
unreal. i am without speech and bordering on apoplectic.
brian anderson would've caught that...

On the plus side, it's the only interesting thing about the game so far
Nothing else is really worth talking about….

Spielberg or Luc Besson?
It's like he's a cyborg sent from the future to draw 22 walks a season or something.

No, no -- Guillen said no moves are needed
I agree with the exception of:
DFA Betemit
Beckham at 3B
Sit Wise and play Anderson
Get something better than Gobble and Whisler for the LHP ass-end of the bullpen

And after Wells blew it, I now have no compelling reason to change the channel.
Other than, of course, to avoid this.
Ed Farmer: "Is it raining in here?"
Steve Stone: "I've made an egregious mistake."
Stanley Cup
is tied at 2-2 I’m getting ready to change after next inning if they don’t do anything… though its kinda painful for me to watch

Our YMCA
Had big posters over the basketball courts suggesting alternatives to curse words for awhile.
Keep in mind, the guys playing were big time street ballers. We would finish our work outs and then sit on the stands and watch these guys play because it was that awesome. If one of them busted out “fiddlesticks” they would be laughed out of the facility.

New gamethread please!
Wait…Gobble’s in the bullpen?
Fuck it.
Let’s not waste the energy to summon rally cars.

I vote that we devote the rest of this thread to e-gus watching Taken
He can post updates as various people are totured/maimed/killed and we can chime in with commentary.
Jenksgiving = feast for us.
Gobble = feast for them.

I had a New Glarus Black Wheat
Having a Sam Adams Boston ale (overrated but a great standby), I have some other brews but I think I’m going to cut it off at two.

Ok Sox

I deleted it because of the misspselling. -the Cheat
