CWS knows we like to steal a lot and are agrressive base runners.

back to your class on baseball

how far back does modern go?

And where is this class?
in a bar

I hope

taught by the baseball coach and american studies professor

it goes back to 1900’s. Taught in a classroom. Chris Young took the class in 2001.

It should be taught by the webmaster / CEO of 1866baseball.com.

Try and get these books

The Fireside book of baseball

u know the RBI program

Princeton grad, also former NL president Leonard Coleman. Also the professor is a longtime Dodger fan.

the intercity one?
yea he started that

first African American to score a touchdown for Princeton

matthews 2nd

victim of the game

Ok Ok I'm here

now what. demanding one

Dumb and dumberer
Angels aggressive baserunning

Gives morons a lot of leeway to be stupid

wonder if fuentes gets into this one
Im thinking so

He needs a semi worthwhile outing

Who woulda thought

Three threads for a game that starts at 11:00 AM.

Wow

A lot of slacking in the workplace in Orange County today
that 42 guy and me

posting like typing fools

I'm in here a lot, too
Thanks for reminding me. I'm recording the game,

and I just realized that I might need to add some time at the end. 3 hours is sometimes a bit short.

Yeah

And it’s more like 2 hours 50…Because the start times after 11:00 and then the game starts late, most of the time…

Now THAT'S what I call a reload!

On with the game…

that was a limp swing

1 out

junior plays for the Pale Hose now?
Good to see the offense shake off that bad case of RKS the past two games.

Wasn’t a pretty sight to see, that’s for sure.

They're warming up Jepsen...

…be afraid

you'd

prefer Speier? Fuentes? Oliver after yesterday?

yeah Jepsen more appealing than all those at this point
I've been conditioned to be fearful of Kevin Jepsen...

…I can’t help myself

I’m more fearful of Jane Jetson… she takes the wallet loaded with ca$h.

for some reason

That was the funniest thing I’ve read all day.

Jepsen's been pretty good recently. I still hold my breath, though.
jepsen is fine

when he isn’t relying on the slider so much. that thing hangs 80 % of the time

Bothers me none

I’m getting positive energies from this game…and quite a bit of negative vibes from the Chisox dugout…

Konerko and Thome make me very nervous everytime they bat
tex 3 - oak 2

top 5

boooo

Hey what's the difference b/t me and a Giants fan?
You

would turn down the chance to bathe with Barry Bonds?

Giant fans have stash?
Nothing!

We both get to games in the 8th inning.

I thought my joke was funny

You were the only one.

It was true; Rev's was funny.
I'll stick to fart jokes next time
I'm all for a good fart joke.
you follow different teams?
Giants fans

Dont like the Angels?

Bulger = nails?

as a pitch flies to the backstop…

Nah, more like screws...

lots of twists and turns…

That's what the

Question mark was for ;)

Nailing baseballs into the screen.

I used to wear a beard like Ervins...

When I was 22.

why would anyone admit that?
The chicks digged it.

No lie.

they were wrong
As was their grammar.
That's because

They thought you, ahem, swung the other way.

not that there is anything wrong with that

Right?

Not at all

If that’s the look you’re going for

You sir

Are a profiler

So,

It was thick enough for someone to dig in?

Not the one's I'm interested in.
bulger will be the closer in the post season
Im hoping Fuentes finds his stuff

You need a stronger guy in the 8th anyways, and I think Bulger looking great for that role.

I used to have acne like Ervin

When I was 22

I was lucky...

All that acne was gone the minute I graduated High School.

I used to have cheeks like Ervin

when i had my wisdom teeth pulled out

Acne

S the first thing I see when I see Ervin

That's not acne Ervin has

That’s his self-doubt manifested on his physical being.

the first funny thing you've written

all day.

Wasn't trying to be funny there.

Was actually quite serious.

then I take away my compliment

And I’m giving you a zero for the day.

Ah, the number of the Divine One

I find it somewhat flattering, lol.

A stigma of no faith?
stigmata. stupid flu.
Indeed

Santana needs spiritual uplifting. Then the physical manifestation will disappear like it never existed in the first place.

Bulger is pretty awesome
I'm liking this Bulger guy

When did the Angels get him?

Rams traded Bulger because their offense line couldn't keep him on his feet.

acquired after a habitual dfa candidate was finished giving up grand slams
I'm really diggin these threads!

It’s like seeing people’s thoughts come to life right before your very eyes…

Ummmmmmmm

Yeahhhhhh

if i see another papa john commercial

i might poke my eyes out

aybar

boom goes the dynamite

Aybar?

Really?

Yikes! Aybar with power
IT'S A TRAP
You can't repel firepower of that magnitude!
Categorizability meter

Categorizable -——————-|- Uncategorizable

Uncategorizable!!!!!!!! HR!!!!!! Erick Aybar!!!!

*************HOMERUN*********Erick Aybar!***************
I gotta go give my doggie a treat
is that legal in California?
In Seattle yes, Cali no
Only with a prescription
mini burgers

yeah

Nobody kickin' dogs today, eh?
Aybar and Mathis homers

What game am I watching?

Anyone remember when we used to call him Failbar?
im sure we'll remember when the squeeze replay is shoved down our throats every at bat he has in the playoffs

god bless fox

I named my dog after him last September

I have never called him anything but AYBAR and POOPER

As good as he's playing.

I still don’t like him. I wish we would have dealt him. I think he’s playing ANDRE THE GIANT above his head. And it won’t last.

Wats u talkin' about Rex
'Failbar' will return

…we’re too fickle not to get on his back as soon as he has a bad day

Yeah we're bad.

I’m already mad at Rivera for being 1-4 today. The guy’s had like 100 rbi’s lately.

matthews ever look happy?
only when looking at his bank statements
Labelled side-effect for human growth hormone...

…misery

What Angels game?

I’m already tuned in to the exciting redsox-yankees game!

According to ESPN this should be a good one and warrants 28 hours of front page coverage.

THat is good for me

the more ESPN covers two overhyped teams, the more people come to my blog looking to see what the Angels are all about!

Thurston Howell the IV
not enough coverage

for the greatest rivalry of all times

My head asplode
What's with spelling Jhonny incorrectly?

First the dude on the Indians and now this guy. The ‘h’ goes after the ‘o’ people!!!

it means mama was bragging about her profession

Hey, you calling Jhonny’s mama a hore? ;)

nah

i think he was callin her ‘hon’

There's another one?
still surprised no one has been plunked
yeah ... good swing

:(

Thats not what we want
4-2 rangers
Never count on the A's for anything

First mistake

Prediction: AK walk off.

There is joy in Oak-town. All 2,600 fans in attendance go wild.

wow

more tarps at todays game

2600 was the PAID attendance

There are actually only 12 people in the stands, and most of them have just been sleeping there since last night.

Sounds about right.
damn, angels win, rangers win
as long as the Halos win

that all fine by me

According to Dave Smith's Father

Best Case Scenario:
Angels Win, Dodgers Lose
Angels Lose, Dodgers Lose,
Angels Win, Dodgers Win
Angels Lose, Dodgers Win

Man, I can hardly wait for tomorrow's game!

Gonna be a good one. I can feel it…

Any guesses who will play 2nd next year?
no

who’s on first

whats on second
the guy that was on 1st?

idk…

Jepsen gettin squeezed
Jepsen needs to squeeze harder then.

Hitters don’t like gettin’ squeezed either.
;-)

Jepsen had to throw that breaker again.

That pitch has bad mojo on it. He should’ve left it alone for this series…

the homer came on a fastball
good things happen when jepsen avoids throwing the hanging slider
nevermind

fastball yanked

As long as he doesnt just leave it up in the zone

seems to be alright

they can have that

i dont care

Wise point of view.
Nice homer. Need one more out.
White Sox a HR team

Is it US Cellular or is it the team?

NOOOOOOOOOO

That’s going to ruin our run differential which will ruin our Pythagorean W-L which will make people think the Angels are overrated!

The horror!

That's just analytic psycho-babble
Hahahaha! Good.
David Beckham might be better than this guy
Untrue...

…the only thing worse than David Beckham is herpes (and it’s a close run thing)

'herpes' being his pet name for Posh
Just end this game Jeb

This kid has one good outing and everyone is all over his wagon.

Hes had several

His ERA is half of what it was a couple of months ago

if beckham steals

then its a save situation

wow called it
now you have to wait 24
first pitch slider?

why

Save situation now for the fuentesaurus
Tying run has to be on deck

for a save situation

That cutter of Jepesen's got a mind of its own...

I swear it does!!!

Light It Up!

bring on Texas

LIGHT IT UP

JUST ANOTHER HALO VICTORY

Just another halo victory.
Just Another.....
Wonderful game!!!

And nice to see my power affect the outcome of this game today. It never fails to amaze me everytime I use it…

wohoo OAK scores now down 4-3 to tex with a runner at 2nd 1 out in the 6th
Go Oakland! You can make it 5 1/2 games.
OK, time for Oakland to come back and sweep.
Howie moved up, commercials return

*shivers

Isn't that supposed to be a "good" thing?

I don’t understand this reaction…

Oh

So that’s it. Okay, thanks for helping me make sense of this.
:-)

Well I have to make my way out of this place...

thanks to all of you for a memorable time here! I will not forget you…for the next 55 min.
>;-)

Sweet! We won!

The one time we beat the Sox, I’m stuck running errands. Ah, well, they won. That’s all I care about.
