we need more runz…

KENDRY

end the slump with one big bump!

or a Thump
Just don't swing and land on your Rump
Cuz well put you in the dump?
new game thread does not change the game score...
Umm, I think you choked there Torii.
tie it up Kendry
Jesus
Could you him for a Closer right now
use
Get It

Jesus Saves !

of course he does
So........

really the record for Saves doesn’t belong to Frankie

Well, you'd have to use him as a pitcher...

He can’t hit a curveball.

kendry

needs to recharge the batteries

did they show this move at Canees
Isn't that place know for it's topless beaches
No, its uncovered legs
Beckett and Ervin are both pretty quick
that's what she said
No,

Beckett was quick. Ervin wasn’t

red floyd standing by
Checkin in

Yo Halos,

WIN

Ervin

I think he should go up for ugliest player. Not win, but be nominated. His look is just NOT working

You don't like that thin beard?
Heh

It’s like he’s trying to grow one, but isn’t manly enough

We've established that he needs the long red socks
Just hit Rat Face next time
What?

You wanted Pedroia to line one up off of Santana?

No I want somebody to hit Pedroia
I know

Sarcasm :)

sexy becky

ARRRRGGGHH!!!!

The goggles! They do nothing!!!

Who had the time

To make that?

make what?
Lol
no I wasn't joking lol

its a real pic from him in the offseason

Eh...

I doubt it…I sorta wanna see the article were it came from lol

haha

that looks so photoshopped..

esp. the t-shirt

Nevamind

It b real

Holy crap
now were even
That was about behind him

Lol

Not him ... Pedroia
hit papi in the gut
You may take your seat.
Sit your ass down Bay
Termine Ser Sentados, Por Favor.
Remain seated, please.

I always say that along with the announcer at the end of the Matterhorn.

I can't help myself. Me too.
Let's Go Halos!

more runs time———lucky 7’s

just got here but

anyone else think Naps should be DHing while Vladdys out with the amount of catchers we have and how well it worked last time?

yes
good just as long as im not alone

but judging by your name thats a no brainer

did you see how he ran there Juan, try it next time
+ 1900
I think this team has temporarily forgotten how to work the count.
Yo, HGH

You ever hear of “taking a few pitches”?

Nice swing

Howie out in front just sinks into his front door and ropes it

Door=foot
Don't ask how that works
Can't make the catch!

GRD

F....

woulda scored him… D:

Wow, so close to a HR
F Ted Williams
I forever hate Ted Williams
I like Teddy only because he's a half latin brother from San Diego
i heard he's been kinda cold latley
That put the bullpen in there

To make it easier for Williams to hit it out

So will it be Naps or Wilson catching?
J Da Bust Drew skills suck!
why even bother having a wall there.
For Ted Williams

To hit HR’s easier

Come on Figgy

We need a hit

Hi guys.
Hi
Had to go eat supper. Nice to see two on. Come on Figgy.
go eat some more so we can score
Less cranky tonight?

:)

That was so NOT an f---ing strike
good pitch

figgins needs to swing at that.

You two must be slow typers or your broadcast is way behind mine.
Just a bit outside.
It hit the dish
Not the third pitch. It was quite a bit outside.

 YESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESSYESS

I'll take a Passed Ball. :)
I <3 Passed balls
Karma baby Karma
LOL you don't know how funny that is......
WOW

THANK YOU VARITEK

Varitek almost eats it
Great at-bat Desmond!
K-PB? Gameday is slow
Corect
Ironic how the Ump called Figgy out on a check swing...filthy scumbags!
Stumble much Varitek?

Bah, ha, ha, ha

Gameday says K-WP
They should have appealed to 3rd and let the ump call no swing.
howie still woulda scored on the pass ball
But Figgy would have not been on base, and still would have 2 strikes.
where are u from that you are a lakers, bills, and red sox fan?
Beckett looks tired
hasn't drunk a beer in an hour..
missing his binky
Okay....

Do any HHers plan on going to the next homestand? If so, I’d love it if you brought a sign being mean to Rick Reed.

Why? Will he be umping in Anaheim?
No,

But still, just be demeaning lol

instead of being 'Rick-Rolled', it'll be 'Rick-Reeded'

Never going to call that strike, never going to let you win, ..

When reading the postgame thread,

At first glance I thought it said that lol.

that wasn’t a strike yesterday night o.0

Oof

Come on Aybar. You’re better than that.

Wicked pitch...ho hum
That WAS a strike
Gameday agrees. A lot lower than strike four last night.
No D breakdowns!!

stay focused

Perfect now we cant give up the lead
I'll laugh out loud

Dinosaur Boy pitches tonight

Oh Santana's still in.
So,

Over/under on Chances that we get Rick Reed in the playoffs: 49.9%

With Eddings working the left fleld line
bulger in the 8th. Jepsen in the 9th plzz
Woof, called that swing a strike!
that was 3/4 of what Green gave last night on his swing

Lowell gets the "make-up call that has no bearing.

calls seem pretty fair so fair, huh?
KICK HIS ASS OUT
?

wha happened? am stuck watching the espin gamecast.

Lowell vehemently arguing

a called strike thrreeeee

Lowell was whining about called 3rd strike
Lowell argued w/the ump over the call
He struck out and stood there and argued with the ump. Should have been thrown out of the game.
Gameday says strike
throw him out!!
Typical whussy Red Sux wimp Lowell

Too little too late Ump Scumbag

Becket got that why can't Ervin

Umps trying to look fair now so they can suck up ti their Boston Boyfriends in October

notice Bobby did not move one muscle after he caught that!
c'mon Santana just get the out
Rick Reed Closeup

dude looks like a crooked cop

More than one ump has that seedy look.
i thought the same thing!

eddings, anyone?

He looked sad,

Too

aren't they all, or possibly KKK.
yo yo yo whats up ya'll
Nice outing VooDoo
Lets win it right now!
love the VOODOO

now we need RUNS

Rally BBQ Sunflower Seeds FTW!!!
RUNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSS now please
beat the red sux
Angels Like Never play at home on my birthday (Sept. 19th)
But we'll all talk like pirates.

Arr, ye scurvy dog!

they don't even play on my birthday - ever
Mine they only play in Arizona.
I love my birthday

Last WS game on my b-day? Angels won.

thats an awesome birthday gift .
I'd love tix on my b-day

The Angels would have to play the Yankees in the ALCS for a game at home on the day.

Not quite on my BDay

But 3 days before my 40th B-day. I count it as the best birthday present ever.

Derlicious Ervin

ow for a few more Angels runs.

The Pesky Pole and the Monster are not endearing

they’re a reminder of the fact that Fenway Park has dimensions on par with my Colt League field from when I was 14…a specially designed park so that the Ellsburys and Pedroias of the world can look super human, when they’re really just David Eckstein Lites.

Whats wrong with Eckstein...?

That guy will always be a hero in my book.

CKOD is saying that Failsbury and PED-roid-a are worse than Eck.
Did you not notice the "lite"? As in not as good as Eck?
so much anger
Of all the posts of mine you could call angry...

you’re not from around here, are ya?

haha

no. im not, ive just been hearing alot about the halo fans on the red sox blog so i decided to see how it was over here

How the hell do you account for the teams you root for?

Florida Gators…Lakers…Red Sox?

and then the Buffalo Fails?

Why does it matter..?
dang

already with the hurtful comments. i moved around alot when i was little. could only really root for teams that were nationally broadcast in the 90’s

no need to defend your fanhood it's all good man welcome to HH
Not really going for hurt

just perplexed.

I’m an Angels/NY Giants/Celtics/Rutgers fan…it’s not like I’m unsympathetic to the dude who has random allegiances.

it does seem random

but what can ya do? you root for who you root for. and until 2004 i was cursed with baseball and football never winning the big game, so to speak. my dad lives in the LA area tho, thats why i always have respect for the dodgers and angels, and partly why i became a laker fan

so far, you're cool in my books

we’ve just been hit by some evil ugly trolls

Really ugly.

hangs head in shame

I had trouble ignoring them.

If you're a troll, no thanks, we've got plenty.
easy there tiger

im not a troll, i have great respect for the halos. i dont get into the name calling bs

wow I didnt know your kind exists.
out of 100, we get one or two
I've even met some, at that miserable playoff game two years ago.
giggle.....opie is a tiger....giggle
I'd have said "cougar" myself ;-)
or pantherette
tiger, panther, pantherette, it's all good. :)
Not a cougar. Not any more, anyway. Heh.
At least

A cougar in your hearts? If not, then in our hearts lol

Hahahaha!

I will admit to having felt an attraction to a couple of guys many years ago, guys about the same age as my son, and I knew they were attracted to me and did not encourage it.

We all survived.

My 40th anniversary will be this December. I was a child bride.

ok, cool. We've had our fill of the jerks the past couple of days.

He called me a tiger! Woot!

ha

i didnt realize that i would cause such a stir on one comment. nice to meet everyone

call me a tiger and we can start a riot :-)
ah i see

i will try not to

I think she meant a different kind of riot. Ha!
we really need to give these newbies "the HH guide to shmoozing the girls" guide
I think he's a little younger and didn't pick up on the expression on your face.
what? he couldn't see me through the monitor? I did put a smiley there!?!
No stir with me

It’s just more funny than anything…if you know me around here, there’s no way in hell you’d have called the post I made angry.

You…wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.

Going to take a Rally Potty Break
Bring back runs
Just don't get the runs
Good evening boys .......Remember its hard to sweep

We win this one

hey Ed
wat up dog ?
tight game Ed
we haven't had a blow out game for a while now ......my blood pressure keeps going up
Shutup about the atmosphere
Kendry is doing his best Vlad impression lately

MIddle of the order is stone cold tonight

Here come the Big Bad Wolf to pitch the 8th inning.
Took a lot of guts to commit at-bat suicide there, Torii
Whats lamer.

Sweet Caroline in the 8th or Build Me Up Buttercup in the 7th inning stretch…?

I prefer Green Green grass of Home
i would say blowing 3 leads in one game
Sweet Caroline

because it doesn’t even have a classic vibe like Buttercup…instead it’s just a pure trash song by a terrible pop star.

Hey now, you're talking about stuff that was considered great when I was young.
Neil Diamond

was never good.

Yes, he was. I have the album with Sweet Caroline.

The one I hated was Cracklin’ Rose`. My husband took me to a Neil Diamond concert a month after our son was born. Linda Ronstadt opened for him.

Linda Ronstadt

all aboard the train to failsville.

Buttercup is lamer.

But Caroline is disgustiong IMO

I'd prefer Sweet Home Alabama
In Birmingham we love the governor... ooh ooh ooh
The 90 MPH Cut Slider of DOOM
Whoa that's an ugly beard on Jepson.
it is working

don’t mess with success. ugly man = beautiful pich

juan looks exhausted
Ervin looked really good this time, the rotation is stacked

an adequate offensive prowess will be key for the ALDS.

come on guys finish the inning!!!
Woah that was scary
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
as a matter a fact

i DID shit my pants on that fly out.

That wasn't as deep as it was called

off the bat I said “oh fuck.” When they cut to Matthews, I said “oh never mind.”

Palmer, Jepsen, or Fuentes in the 9th?
Fuentes better not even be warming up. I want to see Jepsen
I wanna see like a ton of runs
Billy Wagner...?

Is he on any PED’s…?

um

who isnt now a days

Chone Figgins
FA

after this year isnt he? whats the buzz on the angels keeping him?

Juan eats lefties

for lunch … and it is past dinnertime!!!!

Boy fizz sure did blow that call

it had been so long since we bagged on fizz, i just felt like i needed to throw that in

loves me

some mute

Starting pitching has pitched with a lot of heart

The whole season I was betting that once everyone got healthy they would come back to life and that id rather get them hot at the end of the season than early and tail off..Lackey, Saunders, Weaver and Santana, I trust them right now to hang in there..Kaz is ok but Im still not impressed

could this be the inning we score 12 runs ......
Is that even possible with this team...?
that ccheck sswing ccall

was bbbbulshit

OMG SUCK A FAT ONE UMP
fucking scoundrels...robbery
Willits sighting?
shoulda been ball 4

witht hat terrible checkswing call

WEGGIE TIME
not even around the plate

Wagner gonna poop this up

Terry Evans in for Juan Rivera

Runnin’ With the Evans

Wrong 9th inning. Needed that move LAST night.
Sacrifice executed
Reggie no fucking around

get that bunt down and get the man over and get back into the dugout before your seat gets cold.

yeahhh Reggie did his job
Reggie

designated bunter

PH for Aybar in October?
Weggsters: The Websters of pinch bunting
We need a bit hit, HK
That is just a "bit" enough!!
does anybody know when Hank Conger is supposed to be ready?
When the fog clears, and the drums beat. Yes, the drums...

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

HK47

You are freaking awesome

Heh heh heh.
Wow

was Evans fast or was that camera angle shitty?

fast and good jump
HK!!!

great game

Here you go Fuentes...
HOWIE CLUTCH !!

and good hustle by evans

why am i ready to throw up now
If we score , Fuentes is not coming out .....

No , ffffffffffffffffffffing way

he's up

he’s coming out

count on it

I will do a postal at work If we lose this game . P O S T A L
who is warming up?
palmer, fuentes
cool

is bulger only allowed to throw to one batter every 3rd day?

I hope the best is yet to come with Howie
HK is the man!

Getting it done tonight

Oh hi, Wilson

We thought you got traded.

Our bads.

wow

bobby Wilson AB….

lol

Wilson HAS to bunt..

we got two pitchers hitting that inning

Kinda wish this was against papelbon

Now it's Fuentes time....

Bets that he’s pissed and comes out "swinging’

c'mon Figgyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Napoli MUST be nursing some sort of shoulder injury

gets thrown under the bus by Rick Reed for not framing “the pitch” and is not brought in to pinch hit for Bobby Wilson…

Nap got

Rick Rolled

just once I wish the Angels would show some balls

When V-Mart was tagging Wilson he’s well within his rights to put his head down and plow him over. Show the Red Sox we mean business

I concur here. And after his tirade last night, I could swear Hunter reads HH.

one time in a coed softball league

I’m the pitcher and a guy hit a dribbler down the 1B line, he faked running around me and then tried to run me over. Luckily I outweighed him by like 40 lbs and was mostly muscle then. I didn’t say anything though, it’s part of the game.

Players crashing into each other during coed softball? Now there's something new.
o god he's out there
why bunt him over

if you are going to let figgins hit right handed?

Wagner sucking

big time is why

how you figure wagner is sucking?
yea it's absurd

let Wilson hit there, Wagner was struggling with his control and wasn’t going to throw curves early in the count and risk falling behind. Wilson can hit a fastball that’s 94 when he knows its coming

Can I haz no run 9th ...?
Duffs not so much
Duffs=Figgs

I can’t type…

Clutch time

lets see what you got

oh god... hold on to yer butts
I'm already clutching my chest

Fred Sanford eat yer heart out

its the BIG one elizabeth !
Red Foxx standing by
"Interesting" called strikes on Figgy, according to Gameday
I will

break a window if Dino Boy blows ANOTHER game

bay ortiz lowell

bulger, fuentes, palmer

You guys know what ......I hate to miss the bottom of the ninth , but I have to go to wal mart

Dammmmmmmm HP printer is always out of ink

buy the ink tomorrow
Just like last night, one run lead with our star reliever coming in....
Everybody have a paper bag?

Put it around your butt. This way, when you take involuntary dumps, all is well.

I will do a POSTAL if Fuentes blows this ....
Is that a new dance move?
The Fenway ground rules:

5 balls = opponent gets a walk
5 strikes = Red Sox batter out

Remember...

no 4 game losing streaks!!

Jepsen still in? good!
Jepsen is still hanging in there

Whew…

Better late than never

Hey everyone

finish them!

ROOOOOOLLLL CALLL REV!!!!!!!

LETS DO THIS !!!!!!!

FUCK THE BLOW SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (HEY….I HAVE BEEN SAVING UP MY FBOMB)

Roll call. Just got home.

Be good Psyko.

I heard Justin Spears s available and willing
whew

nice play josh paul

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Leave PsyKo In you fat tub of goo lol
oh ok... NOW hold on to yer butts
dont be pooooos fuentes

you go after ortiz

Good stuff, Jepsen

I wish you could stay in longer. :(

at least bulger hypothetically

could still come in to bail out

Anyone but Fuentes at this point

Would be a good thing

i have no problem letting fuentes face ortiz
Jepsen

clap clap clap

RAWR!!!

got to have a little faith

like grorge micheal
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Why are we in commercials?
bringing in Fuentes
pitching change
GET BLOWRTIZ OUT!!!!!!!!!!!
i hope im wrong

but I have a very bad feeling about this.

everyone take your blood pressure medicine
I ran out last night
i have the paramedics on stand by
my heart can take too much drama fuentasaurus rex
...OK, Mike. Hope you know what you're doing.
why would you bring in Fuentes

to face the same batter he threw around the previous night

because he has a chip on his shoulder tonight
good point I find it absurd as well
A little late today...

….but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LEAVE JEPSEN IN!!!!!

Hey. Fuentes can get 2 outs.... He did last night.
He got three outs.
Scioscia realizes

that fuentes can only get a two out save

Come on Fuentes. Be the T-Rex..
Scoscia will be run out of Orange County if we lose tonight ,
You're in Northridge. You don't get a vote.
I will drive to the OC just to lead the charge
Not the Fuentasaurus

Damn it to hell man

Tori is praying
Uh-oh

Please please please

if he fails i'm going to go punch sosh in the nose
dude... punch fuentes and end his season...

do something effective with your violence

Jepsen is awesome.

Why are we bringing in this next clown?

If he

throws four straight balls here I’m gonna bill Mike for the hole I punch in my wall.

Yes!

Fuentes has a chance to throw up another save!

4.41 era are you kidding me
Torii take a picture with those guys

that’s the first time all year you’ve had 2 OF with speed next to you

sosh must want to make sure ESPN runs this game tonight over and over once more
Whew...look at that heat....89
Well, in the grand scheme of things

that’s pretty fast. I mean, I can throw in like the mid-60s, probably. So he’s burning the shit outta me.

Optimism, right?

Big Poopy can't catch up to a mediocre pitch, ha!
Going off the juice will do that to you
Close it down Tito Bandito!
location location location
we got a lucky bounce

hit his bat

excuse me

strike 2

2 and 1, get him Brian.
Hahahahahah
1 down.
2 down
YOu're right. I meant 1 down by Brian, misspoke.
SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT LAST NIGHT!
He did to Green

twice in fact.

to ortiz dumb fuck
Well

that was mildly uncalled for.

He's just upset that Q didn't get to play.
whew

Take a moment and catch your breath.

If the Angels win the world series would Bobby Wilson get a ring for being in the game tonight?
The Angels are a class act. They gave rings to everybody in 2002.
Actually, it was Disney who was the class act regarding the rings.

There was no delay, and everyone got one. I think the guy in charge of the ground crew got one.

And Shields

(Obviously not for the game tonight)

Can I haz 1 more RAWR!...?
That's why you don't pitch around anyone unless it's Barry Bonds on roids

or Pujols

umps

on their best behavior so they can cash in on the playoffs.

wow lucky he swung at junk ccuz thats all he can throw
that is one... FAT...fail
And it begins.........................
shot of tequila sounds good
fuentes cant get righties out

lol

Oh no oh no oh no
Wait

My MLB.tv exploded right after Brian pitched #4. :(

89 mph fast ball ladies and gentelmen your 2009 angels closer
Damnit not Youk a douche I hate this guy
fuentes couldnt get a t-baller out
I said this like eight times yesterday, but:

1…MORE…OUT….

no frigging 2-out rallies

please God no

please no airmailage wilson
It's never easy.
what else would you expect
Plunk him just for laughs
I hate rooting against Baldelli
Why, cause his name is Rocco?
The Angels need to teach Jepsen to play a passable LF or 1B

so they can bring him back in the game after Fuentes faces some lefties

Cubs did that one game this year
yea I saw it

it’s an awesome play

I mean he'd have to have more range

than Rivera right?

lol that would be great
do this Fuentes
Do it right this time Tito!
A shot of Padron for me
what kind of name is Rocco?

sounds like a thug

more like a mobster
roccos modernn life
Got no more nails to bite fuentes...finish this!
just 4 more strikes and Baldelli might get called out
strike 2

only 3 more to strike him out

Strike 2
one more please!!!!!!!
Come on Fuentes!

Don’t make me hate you forever.

geeesh!!!>.....and we thought frankie was bad for our blood pressure!!
No lie, today the doc put me on blood pressure meds.
Give it to us, umps.
RAWR! RAWR!
'RAWR' my ass.

Fuentes is a long way from deserving any RAWR’s around here.

oh c'mon man really...?
Yeah. Really.

The dude is deep in the hole. Had it blown it again tonight this site would have been calling for execution at most, permanent benching at least. One errant K and a pop out does not absolve all that.

and it was ONLY 2 outs....one of which was a pants pooper of a hit
Say what now?

It was a little pop-fly out. The pants-pooper portion of it was on the defensive end, not on Fuentes.

WIN

WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Told you hard to sweet a three game series .

6.5

YEAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D
LIGHT IT UP!!!
WHEW! Freakin rook almost made that look bad
Good Game Guys

We needed that win

yes yes yes holy shit yes
FUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!!
Please....

Please…Please…Please…Please…Please…Please…Please… just one more

Light it up

finally

YAY we took 2 out of 3 against Bawston
*EXHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALE*
THANK GOD!!!!!!!!

LIGHT IT UP!!!!!!

Gubi is so funny.
what did gubi say?
Just another EASY win for the Angels.
Whew!!!!

I thought it was going to be another like last might. YES

Markus almost had a heart attack.
I wonder how bad this is for announcers with bad tickers.
*I* almost had a heart attack...

Evans almost killed me with that play! yes I realize it’s the right one.. just call him off sooner! yikes!

whew

1 out of 3 – I’ll take it!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
YESSS!!!!!!!!!!! SWEET REDEMPTION!!!!!
thank jesus

way to go Fuentysaurus

Fun Times with Fuentes, yahoo!
On to Texas we go for a duel with those Power Rangers.

Lets Bring It in Arlington .

Power Rangers are fictional characters, just like Texas and their "baseball" stadium.

let’s hand it to those whussies!

Is there any doubt on panther?

Has to be HK right?

Fuentes?

LOL!!!!!

Fuentes

That boy scares me

We won with what we had.
still..

no 4 game losing streak!

Series split -- Halos 1; Bahstun 1; Umpires 1
agon won the last game

the umpires just tied it….

we can do this sh-t!

and we’ll have home field boys.

big outing fuentes

2 outs, only 1 hit

On to Texas , Lets go for a sweep
YES YES YES
So it was that good for you, Ladybug?
Yeah. 'bug going all Meg Ryan on us.
hey, why not?
I'll have what you're having.

Oh wait, I did.

Uh...cuz there was a BASEBALL GAME ON!!!

Priorities woman! You and your hubby need to get your priorities straight!!!

Either that, or you two get do your business between pitches.

hee hee...he's not home! should I tell the other guys they have to leave now?
awkward
You're really young, aren't you?
i dont think 25 is that young
Oh dear, you could almost be my grandchild.
young enough to be my son

ITS A JOKE!! you know, hide the girls, the parents are home? Well, this is the married version, hide the guys cuz
the hubby is home?

oh no

i got it. haha, i was just trying to add my own lil joke to it

more words...us old people need elaboration!
Are you single? Do you have a good job?

What’s your credit rating?

Wanna meet my daughter?

ROFL

welcome to halosheaven….
home of the occasional nice troll-visitor, 2 hot tigers and 1 matchmaking mom

ha

you ladies are certainly interesting. im sure ill be back for the playoffs.

haha

setting your daughter up with a red sox fan? isnt that against some sort of code?

don't worry

we would brainwash convert you

well im unemployed and not single, so i cant help ya ha

i will be employed soon tho…..i hope

It's ok. She never liks the boys I pick out for her.
what daughter would
A reasonable one.

Alas, she is a rare creature.

And I have been known to get it dead wrong.

my two girls

last summer at my dad’s birthday party.

Hold your clicks a moment please...

Flickr has the hiccups. We’re looking into the problem right now.

I saw them....I like the other photo better!

which one is up for dibs?

The tall one is married.

What other photo? I thought I linked to them swinging each other around, same pic.

album is open
aha.

well, if you type Katie into the search window on flickr and then select my photostream in the pulldown next to it, you can see her in several other pictures. My favorites are the bluebird shots.

The woman with the red hair and the bright blue

shirt is not me. She’s an older cousin. My sister is the one in the wine-colored top. She’s a real redhead, but it’s hard to tell these days.

Funny, both links work for me.
I should have said he was young enough to be my son.

He’s only a year younger than my youngest.

LOL see you are getting younger by the post
I had the first at age 19, but I'm 59 now so

he would have had to be about 5 years younger to make the cut.

see, we can be sisters
I'm guessing you're the younger sister.
I would think so. They probably need to finish their homework before going to bed.

And that 8:30 bed time is coming up fast.

yeahhhhh! I LOVE 8:30
8:30...lights off.

8:40…wine bottle opens.
8:45…adults once again.

We get to be adults all the time now.

Some days it’s not as much fun.

Oh, I am there with you now.

Both sons grad students (and members here). Youngest off to vet school in Kansas just last month.

But, oooooh, the memories!

Two more years before we get to be adults all the time.

Youngest daughter is a Jr. in HS.

8:30 lights off

8:25 start yelling (kidding people-well, sometimes anyway)
8:20 open the beer

well good series

i hope you guys do well against the rangers, therefore the playoff spots are set.

Thanks. Nice meeting you.
THE FURIOUS BAT OF HOWIE IS BACK!
bout time damnit lol
it has been

now it’s just more furious.

just sayin’….

YES

two out saves from now on

yeah Garrett

I mean Howie, his brother

way to leave boston on a high note!

and go howie!

SUCK IT BOSTON SUCK IT SUCK IT SUCK IT

DAMN SPORTSMANSHIP, JUST SUCK ON THAT LOSS YOU ’ROIDING PIECES OF CRAP AND YOUR CRAPPY STUFFY OLD BALLPARK AND HELEN KELLER UMPIRES.

tell us how you really feel
so that would be the real anger.....
Nope

still not even close.

scary
He's not too bad.
It's really all just self-parody at this point

but if this blog existed during the 2005 ALCS, I likely would have blown up the internet with what I would have said on here.

Was that the horror in Chicago?
Yeah

It actually got me briefly put on the cyber crime division of the FBI’s 10 most wanted.

I think I libeled about half of the American population, and made death threats against the other half.

Don’t really remember…I just remember blacking out after the play, and waking up in a cold cell in Cuba, and it was 2 weeks later.

it's the real 'I'm upset' you don't wanna see ANGER
RAWR!!!

Light it up!

that win makes the plane ride to Texas way easier
Did you guys hear Rex on the radio

calling Fuentes out on how poorly he handled the situation last night? Personally I don’t mind Fuentes calling the umps out at all.

Yeah, pissed me off.
Probably earned him a fine from the commissioner

but it needed to be said!

don't quote me on this

but I’m pretty sure a lot of fines accrued by the players are paid under the table by the owner if they don’t have a problem with what caused the fine in the first place.

The Red Sox are the embodiment of evil on earth

I may have understated that a little bit.

Let’s beat these bastards in the PLAYOFFS!

*over-stated
No

he was right the first time.

pretty sure evil should be reserved for the yankees....
The Red Sox

are the Yankees Lite.

All the arrogance, with 1/4th the rings.

eh maybe

but id say yankee fans are faaar more arrogant. there are still some sane red sox fans like me that remember its just a game

It used to be that most Sox fans knew baseball and were not the band-waggoners.

whom we find so annoying.

Yankees fans have been really polite the past couple of years, at Angels stadium. Most of the really awful bandwagon Yankees fans don’t come to the games these days.

where are the boston posters tonight?
crying in their moms basements
out for a troll

on another blog -

im here
You don't qualify as a troll. You're too well-behaved.
eh it was a good series

any series where 2 out 3 games comes down to the 9th inning, you cant be too mad at that. plus its not like these games, actually “meant” anything in the long run. im pretty sure the halos will win the west, and red sox will win the wild card

It was a good series if you're a Sox fans

it was a pretty misery inducing one if you’re a fan of the forces of good in the world.

my misery is being induced by miami right now

how is it red sox are evil again?

you gotta be there

er, here (that would be, in our shoes) to know.

86 years is pretty long though… so that’s a close 2nd :-]

ahhh actually

im a bills fan, no fanbase can lecture me on heartache and misery…..haha

A fat head hunting frat boy starting pitcher

two roiding sluggers that knocked us out of the playoffs…one of whom was endearingly referred to as “manny being manny” for a decade before the fan nation finally realized he was, in fact, an asshole.

a hot headed lunatic named “youk,” and the annoying label of ‘scrappy underdog’ still somehow applying because you’re not the yankees.

but derek jeter is actually, technically the force behind all evil in the world.

lunatic?

i love youk! you would too if he had a halo jersey on. i dont get the scrappy underdog anymore. manny was a jackass, but he was a great hitter (legally or not) and thats why he stayed for so long. fat head hunting frat boy pitcher? (i dont know who you mean)

we agree on jeter tho

I actually like both Youk and Jeter.
Beckett is the head hunter

and no, I don’t like hormonal, temperamental jackasses on my team…no matter how good they are.

See: Guillen, Jose.

not a lackey fan?
I'll root for him to succeed as long as he's playing

but his character on the field is more than difficult to defend.

HOWIE DUB FOR PANTHER

.298 avg. now…unreal

yea considering a month and a half ago people said

it would be nearly mathematically impossible for him to hit over 300 this year.

Those, of course

being the same idiots who didn’t realize that Kendrick’s career minor league average was .360…making his ability to raise his average to .300 at ANY time fairly easy.

i think i will buy a big screen
thats the "other" howard
there's a diffrence?
why don't we just nuke the town?
Light it, Jeebus, let's do better in Texas!
Howie is pretty well spoken

or maybe it’s just that he didn’t need a translator.

stupid umpires.....i bet they're wearing blowsux under shirts
LOL

you like the check swing strike on Juan in the 9th?

well they got them for free in their season seat ticket package

ask Rev about that one and the Division Series a few years back.

i'm driving to the halo right now just to see it lit

it seems like forever

Still gotta get the offense going

before the playoffs

There are precisely zero legitimate reasons, from this point forward

to not play Kendrick regularly.

what about

rest for after we’ve clinched?

the pharaoh is the better dude imho
never heard of Terry Evans

what’s the story on him?

A more affordable version of GMJ.

But without the puppy trots to first when he draws a walk.

He's a decent but aging outfield prospect

too old to be a prospect, really (27). We acquired him in the trade for Jeff Weaver with St. Louis back in ’06. Really good power, but not very good plate discipline.

is it safe to say

that GMJ was a bust and needs to go?

That is something that is very safe to say around here.

Ain’t gonna happen though. Too much money wasted on his ass not to use it whenever necessary.

could be

that he’s a virus secretly planted by the Rangers to occupy space in the lineup and don nothing at all

played sparingly in 2007

but none at all in 2008. and he’s a healthy sized outfielder with average skills all-around.

that’s about all I know about him.

hey revster.......make sure to put me on the roll call list......i love seeing my screen name on there
suck the red fox!
he's been around for awhile.....they should just trade the sob for a bag of balls
no. they should emphatically never do that. It should never happen again.
