Halos Heaven

god i hope so

Here we go Admiral.

All ships move to attack formation!

lets go admiral...

get this thing going

LOOK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The “Ima Gonna Throwa Chair in Yo Face” pitcher is in.

new threads always feel nice.

like a clean pair of underwear

and we need it

HELL YES

good start good start

Lets do this Damn thing

Damn It!

lets do this

extra innings turn me bipolar.

F### YEAH!

there we go

good start! take second admiral!

bunt?

yep

Admiral has had a helluva game........

Yeah Aybar! Get it started baby.

Jump to lightspeed Admiral

what do we do here?

bunt Aybar over

Aybar knew it was a trap

He always knows

yep

damn... that's all artsy and shit...

with French and stuff too

Is that french?

yes

french for "it's not a trap"

actually, i think it's "This is not a trap"

Always had a hunch that Ackbar was not only multi-linguist

But well-cultured and sophisticated

the sweater-vest gives it away

He's the kind of "guy" that can help destroy the Death Star before lunch

And make it for tea and a cricket match in the afternoon

the ump must be going ape shit over the extra innings...

despite everything he’s done to prevent it.

Get on the board Figgy.

That last thread was crap

bunt or swing?

figgy looks like hes neevr bunted before

I love how they show you an angle where you have know idea what pitch

the pitcher threw. allows to ump to call it however he likes

Francisco should throw a chair into the stands again

His speciality is throwing it into people's faces.

WP like it ...

RISP

nice..........

too bad he cant bunt now….....

That....works great!

Act like you got HIT Figgy!!!!!!!!!

ok RISP!

That pitch hit dechone... how come he didn't grab his foot

thank you, now get him to 3b

Freaking K'd.

Way to get the runner over by forcing the wild pitch figgy!

KOTCH... clutchness needed now !!

Figgy FAIL

but still got the runner….to 2b

That was the worst AB I've seen in a long time

you must not have watched GA or the Massacre bat this season

Oh, I have, but two lame bunt misses and swinging at a pitch over your head beats those

so funny

figgins keeps doing good things by walking, getting hit by a pitch and now getting a wild pitch

come on CK.........be super!

Jesus, Figgy

Whenever my crotch is itching Casey gets a hit....

or a visit from Mr Crab happened

He hit it

and right to the third baseman on the infield. SUX0RZ.

Kotch - think bandbox

No marine layer – no high wall in right….............

Rex sounds like he's come off his 'high'

Damn that fast ball looked ymmy

Krotch popped up and got out

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeak

well thats back to back failure

Pop-out.

We need you Vlad.

vlad IBB

torii its time for some of that “intangible” power

VLADDY.......do something...........

anything…....

Jesus Christ

Its like we’re trying to lose this series.

K Torii...........do something

Something good

Er.

Make that Hunter. IBB

make 'em pay, Torii

Vlad could prabably hit one of those pitch outs out of the park.

Except the 4th one that almost went in the dugout

he could have probably reached for that one as well

NO!

funny i would have pitched to vlad

hasn’t been himself all year. i guess texas is still scared of him

Angels players all look way too solemn.

Lets go Big Game!

Hula dula time!

Missed the mitt by 3 feet on the first pitch and got a strike

F

K'd.

Dammit.

enough failure to go all around tonight

wow... i didnt think he went...

As if it made a difference.

oh mother faaaaawk........

Take your OPS and shove it Zu…....thats the crap im talking about

Because Figgy and Kotch were WAY more clutch, right?

no.......but Hunter is paid 15 mil a year.......

and they are not…....

Yeah and he's been earning it all year

by being the second best hitter on the team. Get over it already.

well your opinion and mine differ on that...........

Your opinion is totally unsupported by reality.

Believe otherwise as you please.

Hell, at least Hunter had the decency to get screwed by the umpire.

FUCK NO HE DIDN'T GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that’s fucking bullshit ump…

fuck this crew… i’m fucking pissed and hell now

I give up

We dont deserve to win this game.

I half expect Soth to pinch hit Q

neither does texas

if we were in japan we could take a tie

Speier

This should be good.

How many pitches before he gives up the game winning home run?

5

4 straight balls to the lead off batter than homerun off first pitch to next batter

good thing we pay torii all that money

no way

giving into the crowd reaction to call that one? Didn’t look too bad from my view.

How did this game get so close?!?!?!?!

Lackey imploded, Shields imploded, Oliver imploded

and the rest of 'em just crapped everywhere

incontinence is a bitch

ladybug - July 10, 2008 reply

it's only a hallucination. We really won 10-4

ladybug - July 10, 2008 reply

Soth let Lackey in WAY too long mainly

then he still doesn’t get it that Oliver doesn’t do well against lefties, and then Shields had a bat outing made worse by the ump

every inning Lackey pitched they had at least 2 hits

and the outs were like line drive double plays

if Speieiiiereeiireeeeieiie is coming in...

i give up.

although, i’ll secretly be crossing my fingers and peeking out of my left eye

Let's see if Speier is going to give it up once again.

This game sucks hard.

I gotta get some stuff done. Light up the halo for me

this is not the pitcher we want up right now.

nor the batters

People in the outfield seats. Beware of incoming objects travelling at very high speeds.

How is it we score way less hits against their sucking pitchers

while they score way more against our good ones ?

Doesn’t compute.

Bringing Speier in to pitch at this point = Pinch Hitting Q next inning

Young Ks

I want a piece of their offense...

good k

miracle

a call that goes the angels’ way

hey scioscia i have a great idea

lets bring in the 0-4 relief pitcher with an ERA north of 5.

Los Angeles de Anaheim - July 10, 2008 reply

don't blow it speier

NICE..

0-2

Ack! Walk Snort! He will play that slider like a pinata.

Keep pitching well Justin.

please throw hamilton crap

Come on Justin

Earn our trust back.

Game over

The opposite version

Speier

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

isn't it always the wrong to week to stopp sniffing glue?

you picked the wrong week to start sniffing glue

indeed

BRILLIANT MOVIE

Again really lame

Make outs Justin.

For fuck's sake

DO NOT PITCH TO HAMILTON

How FREAKIN' hard does he have to beat you to understand!

Just DFA Speier

his velocity is gone!

88 mph on the fastball to Hamilton for a double

yea he used to be at 94

When was that

when he was with Toronto, and the beginning of last year

Game over

Texas with man in RISP with

shiftyeyedgoat - July 10, 2008 reply

Ahh, shit

FUCKING SHIT...

Speeireiierireiieriir had him at 0-2

NOW he walks someone

Frankie now

welcome to 0 and 5 justin

20 hits.............

gross

Yes. Against, mostly, our GOOD pitchers

We have half the # of hits against their ROOKIES.

Oh NOW you go for the intentional walk?!?!?!

Hi Bradley.

Bye Speier.

oh oh - ANGER Man approaches

put one in his EAR!

Bradley...

why don’t you give the ump a high-five on the way to the plate

byrd do not be the hero

ground into a double play

This has all the making of a kirk gibson hobble around the bases

Josh Lewin is referencing this.

Is this Texas’ World Series?

About as close as it gets for them

So I guess that counts for something

texas doesnt know what a "world series" .

SPEIER...

Holy crap you suck.

Let

Let's got Speier

Wow, I can't even type right now.

Speier's going to walk in the losing run

just to taunt us.

just surprise me Speeiriireiieriire...

get through this inning and i’ll be your best friend

Nice catch Howard.

Nice over the shoulder grab

What happened to speier's sinker ball?

It added a "t" between the "s" and "i"

NEIGHBOR!

Good job Howie

holy shit...

my heart skipped a beat on the pop out

thanx you howie

One... more... out...

It would be fitting to have a rookie beat us now

Seeing how we get beat by rookie pitching all the time

Hahaha

Real knowledgable fans there in texas with the huge cheer on the pop out to 2nd

I'm going to buy a sniper rifle

and murder this ump’s family while he sleeps.

Has he been that bad really ?

I had to watch on my cellphone and didn’t catch 75% of the action

No ones that bad.

But he’s as close as you get.

thats not creepy

taking "fannatic" a lil far there

damn Zoodong

yeah dude leave the family out of it then you got something cooking ;)

That's unfair.

They’re not making the calls, just get blue.

Not funny.

Nah.

You’re right. My bad.

Let's finish Davis off Justin.

texas making their big end of the year push

Wow didn't see that coming

SPEIER

Wow… Finally.

YESS!

NOW LET’S GO HALOS!

YYYYEEEESSSSSSSSS

Im so tired of the rangers announcers

I turned off mlb.tv and put on mlbradio

One feature I wouldn't mind having is being able to listen to one and watch another

Those ranger announcers are HOOOOORRRRIRIBBEBEBBLLBLLEEELELELELLLL
They remind me of HGH

Amen

how hard is it to do thath

SIT DOWN

Good job Speier

Sorry to be so hard on you but you kind of did that to yourself ;-)

Here we go.

YES!

He channelled first half 2007 Speier on those last 2

I need my medicine

my heart stopped many, many times that inning.

shiftyeyedgoat - July 10, 2008 reply

I can't believe Speier made it through that inning. Shocked!

44FAN - July 10, 2008 reply

Inning over! Game is still tied! Speier escapes!

And in other news, gas is now $2 a gallon.

Pheww....cracking open a rally beer.....now.

Holy K Batman

Spier gets an inning ending strike!out.

EXHAAAALE

can i get another commercial of the blonde getting the cream pie in the face ? id feel much better

Come on GA, let's end this game!

great now i have a 25 min drive home.........

hopefully it will do the halos some good while im not here…....

That was excellent.

Give it to Justin, he kept Hamilton in the park, got BRadley out, and made it through the front of the lineup without a run.

Rusty Carew - July 10, 2008 reply

Like I said

I feel bad giving him crap, but then again, he has been sucking like there’s no tomorrow lately

And killed some halo fans in his reign

COME ON

Let’s score some runs against their crappy pitching! 4+ ERA, come on!

GA single up the middle !!

nice GA!

Lazy single

Rusty Carew - July 10, 2008 reply

That's my lazyman!

GA!

????? Reggie is PHing ??????

Bunt he is better then everyone to bunt

I think mathis might be a better bunter

its close

but you cant replace mathis

nice ga

WHAT

Why is reggie coming in? Why not have him run for GA

willits in for rivera ??

wow even Phys gets why this bunt is so bad

GA with a hit, Let's Go Angels!

Reggie, Reggie, Reggie!

44FAN - July 10, 2008 reply

@!(YHQ@R(HQOHN

Steal 2nd ga

c'mong elvis

get a knock

WHAT. THE. FUCK?

Rivera has like 3 hits this game, no?

Is JR hurt? Why was he pulled?

at least we are getting lead off singles

that is better than going down 1 2 3

Someone tell cooler not to swing at the first pitch

Why is Juan being pinch hit for?>

Bunt action.

Don’t ask me though. It’s not like Juan is 3-5 or anything.

willits with some Pride

ok howie give us a little more

willits bunts over GA ...

elvis should have pulled a Jeater on the first base line

i think it was an "a-rod"

Yeah... a-rod

that's what i meant...

errr…

i’ll have another beer now

haha

Nice bunt anyway.

I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND

Why Rivera STILL cannot start AND FINISH an actual game! WTF ? He always gets subbed!

F Reggie

late roll call

and im already questioning the Willits sub

Come on Howie!

Nice bunt, but damn

Gotta think the chance of Juan getting the bunt down is good enough to have Willits run for GA.

How 'bout numero tres, senor Kendrick, por favor

LAZY !!!!

What's that GA?!?!?!?

GA's too lazy to run to 3rd...

GA sleeping on the basepath

GA dammit i cant even defend you on that... RUN TO 3rd !!

eff.... Howie K's

WTF...

This sucks balls

Willits walks to third on that pitch

Doesn't matter HK struck out

it's gonna matter if Izzy hits

I hate you ump.

Strikezone is big ? For them ?

Boy King time

Izzy coming in to PH for Math Man

Dammit Blue.

If you really want this game over

let US score.

wow

its like all the clutchness has been sucked out

cmon guys you cant call GA lazy

thats racist

/end sarcasm

Now THIS pinch hit I agree with

Dunno.

Mathis hits .378 with RISP.

Mike is going with feel.

Mathis is probably tired

Mike has forgotten more about baseball than I will ever know.

yeah... GA should have had 3rd

We look bad.

Willits is on third right now if he PR for GA

GAZOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

MAICER!!!!!

IZZY!!!

WE LOOK GOOD!!!!

11-10!!

TITS

HELL YES

MICE TITS

shiftyeyedgoat - July 10, 2008 reply

THE PHARAOH!!!

hell yeah !!

GA motored on that one … way to go izzy !!!

Izzy bloop - GA scores.

I could have sworn i read soths lips earlier

he said f these bandwagon fans

Don't take the Soth's name in vain like that.

no way

Carl Johnson - July 10, 2008 reply

MIGHTY MOUSE!!

All hail the Boy King!!!

MICE TITS!!!!!!

IZZY ROCKS

Now let’s hope K-Rod is going to be clutch

IZZY!

yesyesyesyesyesyesyes

Gazooooooooo

http://s83.photobucket.com/albums

i love you izzy

i will never laugh at your walkup song again

what song is it anyways

REGAETOOOONNNNNNNN

its in GTA IV, i know that

Budde sighting.

44FAN - July 10, 2008 reply

MICE TITS

THANK FUCKING DOG that GA scored...

I’m really, REALLY surprised that GA made it.

Personally, I’m a Mice Tits fan… he’s scrappy

He's won me over this season

No way GA doesn't play heads up

after that missed passed ball.

Like Jo Jo?

thank you Izzy

wait, GA didnt stop at 3rd?!

Izzy does the job that nobody else... not even our superstar, seems to be able to do.

AGAIN

That's why he's batting 3rd.

im sorry i want more runs... then ill feel better

About 30 or so would do it for me

29 we suck with a 3

You mean 30 MORE, not 30 total, right?

30 more, yeah

I feel better that K-rud is coming up...

instead of Speirieiirieiriieriie

I dunno

Speier did better than K-Rod last night.

oh c'mon

Only cause Josh missed.

K-Rod needs another save...

So he’s on par with Seattle again. Let’s do it Frankie!

cmon fig

anybody else worried that budde will be catching krod next inning?

I wasn't until you said something.

Now I’m terrified.

Should we be?

i dont remember him behind the plate personally so i dunno how he is defensively

Only if runners get on.

Frankies curve can be hard for newbies to track.

Don't you know that with my buddey, wherever it goes, he goes

so long as Budde does not pull a muscle running the bases I am OK!

Nice at bats

by the shortstops.

Ce n'est pas un piège

Admiral. I salute you.

Pas du tout un piège!

Who's up for Texas against Frankie?

Does it really matter?

They all have 4+ hits tonight.

Point taken

As long as its not hamilton and young

Boggs Ramirez Kinsley

Thanks

Desmond Dechone needs to hit it out.

Figgins still doesn't hit much does he.

I miss you, 07 Figgy

BDL Figgy

Before the Disabled List Figgy.

suck

KRod time!

I c we are back to Figgy hitting flyballs again…BAD Figgy!

Send him to Durham for the All Star Break.

is that where Nathan is?

LET'S DO THIS FRANKIE!

Do we need a new thread ? :-)

NO!

This thread is fine thank you.

NO

I was just kidding guys.

I think we're a bit on edge

Shut these guys down krod.

ok Hollywood time

This may be the most nervous save yet.

i haven't fully gotten over last night

okay K-Rod

redemption time

All right K-Rod

You have the Budde Christ on your side here. Let’s do it.

rofl

nice

foxpaw - July 10, 2008 reply

WTF BLUE

This umpire needs to be put down.

COME ON BLUE!!!!

Did Ron Washington send you a check from the clubhouse????

Uh....ball? Want to try that call again blue?

Wow... can you protest a game if you win it?

This isn't the NBA

This ump is terrible

Has he been this “good” for us at times as well ? I’ve been watching since the 10th… but what is wrong with this guy?

Not really.

Then by all means

go ahead and pay him a visit.

yeah he's been crappy all night

when the announcers are mentioning how crappy his zone is, its bad

... lead off walk

Thanks Blue

geez

lead-off walk

here we go again…

assist to the ump on that BB

Seriously

That first “ball” is mindbogglin’

Unbelievable.

Can you DFA an umpire?

There is nothing more frustrating than this.

CHRIST!!!!

ASSWIPES!!!!!!!

HOLY CRAP YOU SUCK KROD!

holy moly!!

wow...nice throw krod

WTH?!?!?!?!

COME ON FRANKIE! MAKE THAT EFFING THROW!!!!

Come on Frankie

Execute!

Frankie's free agent plummeting

free agent value plummeting

jesus christ

this is a goddamn joke. Have fun in new york frank.

omg just catch that ball...

He listened this time.

geez...

that was VERY lame

I can't take any more of this

F-Raud.

At least its 1-2 and not 1-3

wow

frankie sucks

holy shit frankie STAY PUT!!!

they can't bunt!

SCHalo - July 10, 2008 reply

Ballgame right there.

Goddammit,

good...thanx you for catching that one frankie

wow i cant believe he actually caught that one

....holy freaking crap. i need another diaper

Frankie's getting the save

Relax

Wow, what a break

Do you guys remember a couple years back

when Frankie dropped the ball on the mound and the runner scored from 3rd and we lost the game?

One time, in band camp...

Against the A's

He was just a skinny kid then.

Rex: "Thank you, What a break that was!"

That was not a break.

getting an out from Kinsler and nobody advancing

is a HUGE break for us

No, that was JUSTICE.

NEED DOUBLE PLAY

A frackin' blown bunt attempt.

Who cares, he still has to get through Hamilton.

i cant believe they made Kinsler bunt

Let's EXECUTE K-Rod!

Washington take a page out of the "im a dumbass book"?

he doesnt have a 22 game hitting streak for no reason

It's the bench coach

Washington got tossed on the double call.

O i never would no listening to the rangers annouhnncers

frankie working from behind

shocker

double play

double play double play

everybody think positive

double play double play double play

POSITIVE THINKING>

hud is SO feeling the pain all of us are feeling.. you can hear him

i like the passion

that's actually why i like hud... he's a homer.

But he also appreciates good baseball.

He's a homer but he also knows baseball.

This strike zone is ridiculous

I don't agree this is an interesting ballgame at all

It is a dissapointing, sucking ballgame if anything

You don’t allow 20+ hits and 10 runs and call it interesting

i agree

at least it’s not a blowout

Yeah that's the only positive thing

LETS GO KROD

K!!

Now get Hamilton!

sit down!!

SCHalo - July 10, 2008 reply

K Rod!

HELL YES FROZE HIM

rare batting mistake by texas

Oh, Young!

My bad

pitch 5 should had been strike 3

SIT DOWN

THAT pitch is why you pay him

Beautiful, simply beautiful.

Yep

no thank you. I'd rather spend the money on a bat

The Rangers have plenty of bats

Hmmm… I wonder why that is?

Like who?

No one good coming up this year unless you count Dunn, and I don’t.

Let's just buy the rangers. They can't be worth much.

Hell no.

Ever seen their ballpark? You can bunt for homers in that place.

1 more than leave the fucking field before the ump yells do over

BALLGAME!!!

LIGHT IT UP!!

1more1more1more1more1more

light it up!!!

lets gt young out and end this thing

come on frankie you can do it

i hated this game

KENDRICK ROCKS!!!!

LIGHT IT UP!!

LIGHT UP THAT HALLLLLLLO

FranKie!!!!!

Sets the Pre All Star Game Saves Record!

And more importantly

Catches back up with Seattle

XD

Light it up!

Wow, that was a damn exciting ballgame.

Lovin It!

FUCK YEAH!!!

Soth should go give it to the ump now.

This game is the definition of positive suck.

I've HAD about 18 beers

That would explain responding to wrong post then. :-P

I NEED ABOUT 18 BEERS

We did it!

Light her up!

That Was Fun!

JUST ANOTHER HALO VICTORY

Rusty Carew - July 10, 2008 reply

HOWIE PANTHER

K-Rod Heartattack

Light up the split

at this point i will take it

The worst part is that we easily could have swept them though.

wow.

what a game..

So… the only person qualifying for today’s picks is Bradley right? 0/1?

Yea.

yay.

Easy work tonight.

correct

technically

Cattalanato as well

Well. He was technically never a batter...

so… I shan’t count him…

Howie panther, I agree, but how can you not give it to Izzy?

thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou

just when I decided I needed time away from this team for awhile

Izzy is panther

SPEIER GETS THE WIN

how funny is that

1-4 baby

Nice victory fellas

Izzy = Panther

was that a 4 or 5 out save

in one inning?

SCHalo - July 10, 2008 reply

Yaaaawwwwnnn. Just a typical win.

HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Somebody crapped in my pants!!!!!!!!

why do i feel so exhausted ? hahaha

i feel ya

Let's get out of Tejas!

Good win

Thought for sure we were screwed during the momentum-shifting 7th. Light it up, and get the hell outta Texas—land of steers and …..yeah.
