Monkey time!!!
Let's Go Halos!
is it too early

to call out the Rally Monkey? or does the rally gnome now take precedence?

the Rally Raadad takes precedence
notice

the lack of caps when referencing the "rally gnome’? :)

no dice for K-Frad
Is that really Raadad in the video?
It's actually Rev's brother,

DufusHalofan
(Notice Ladybug hiding in the foreground at the end, btw)

that be him!!

I’m at the last few seconds in lower right corner

Oh, you guys look like you had so much fun.

I’m jealous, almost.

Lady Bug forced me to drink a lot

Actually, thanks go to QuadFinRider and Wilfong

Hell yeah it is.

You can see me if in the bottom right corner of the screen, if you pause it at :05 too!

B0rd3rline is that handsome devil

puking in the lower corner

Hey, I never puke.
And I'm the other lame-ass dancer
You da man, brother!

And Son of Raaddad is hiding behind Red

No fooling? Now I am jealous.
What did I do to deserve this?

I tried to be nice person. I lived a good life. (well, maybe not…)

Rah Rah Rah

let’s get to Cecil the seasick sea surpeant

"I'm coming Beany boy!"
Beany copter his ass
Aybar is NO leadoff hitter
I'm here. I hope.
Ok, that worked.
Izturis returning from the DL this week

Who gets the axe? Frandsen? I don’t think they’ll cut Wood yet, unfortunately. But it’s either one of those two or they’ll need to reduce the size of the bullpen.

Frandsen most likely.

Though there’s a chance Wood goes on the DL.

Really? With what?
According to Hatcher, Wood's been having some hip problems
reducing the # of bad relief pitching options wouldnt be a bad thing
okay that was too quick

rally next inning guys!!

thats what she said
too bad for her
another oppo field flare

so sweet

Joe better go the full 9. If I was him, I wouldn't want the bullpen anywhere near my game

even if I was behind

aybar and howie @ the top of the order aint cutting it
idea

wood at the top

so many black holes to choose from
Anybody pick 1????

Jeez, what a drag

i had 6
last time Cecil gave up this few hits was against Cleveland. That's how bad we are tonight.
Wow that's depressing
as did I

How embarrassing

well at least yu didn't have 6 on 2000 hits

lol

Two base runners

Two! Against a scrub pitcher.

Wilkie sucks.
no way that you can blame Hokie Joe if they lose

he’s been dealing the entire game. He has been the victim of bad/indifferent defence.

he's been good enough to win...

wouldnt say he’s dealing… 5 BB’s. he’s the victim of a horrible offensive performance

*thus far

still time to awaken the offense… cmon rally gnomes !

That's a lot of walks

Especially to a team that doesn’t walk a lot.

well yeah

there have been some bad defensive plays. and you are right, he, like all of the Halos pitchers, desperately need to have offensive support.

the point I was trying to make, however, is that he has been able to keep the Halos in the game.

no doubt

thats why i said he’s been good enough to win. he deserves better than 1 freaking hit of support from his offense

lead off walk is the kiss of death
Joe:

“oh shit… bullpen’s coming in and i have property on 1st base”

but, I was gonna lose this one anyway…. cuz we cant hit for shit

did i mention this team is embarrassing?
I may not have noticed

because I was hiding my face in shame

wait a .77 ERA in his last 13 games

and we are pitching him when we are down? How about you play the hot pitchers when we are ahead Soth!

doesn't say what he does with inherited runners
He's allowed 3 of 10 inherited runners to score in that time
ooh

that’s stinky

That's actually not bad

I think the average is around 50%, but a sample of 10 is not big. If they were all on first with two outs, then big frickin’ deal.

Yeah, I think his IR-S sucks.

15-7

wonder what Joe was saying to Sosh
I miss the motivational leader John Lackey
the thing about Saunders and the Angels offense this game

is that the ump has a pretty small zone which makes Joe’s performance all the better and the offense all the more pathetic

Vagasil
Just curious

are you the master of non sequitur, or are these utterances in-joke-ish, or are you just a crazy ass white boy?

He's probably drunk.
she's itching to know
Major League reference
I thought it might be a reference to the SNL skit
he's the master of his own domain
Somebody wake me up when this is over

I mean this season

I'll wake up on on the 7th of June for the draft

and then you can go back to sleep. Lots of picks this year. A Top 10 pick next year that can’t be traded away by our College of the Desert Alumni.

I was just thinking that

Shrek is more exciting than this crap

Lord, that is telling
Yea, that should be fun filled entertainment for all

I like tubby Puss-in-boots

kids are watching Shrek II
nice walk Bulge
blow pen alert
Soth waving the white flag, Cassevah up
Angels couldn't afford the 3-run bullpen tax yesterday

Hope things go better this time.

why not Jepsen?
Because this is a high-leverage situation

And using your best reliever in a high-leverage situation is actually good strategy. Therefore, a major-league manager will do the opposite.

To the Bulge is awful
somebody(s) headed to Salt Lake
Odaley

it’s Speedy Juanzales

Do you mean "Andale'"
oralé

homes

Arriba Arriba Arriba
Ora Lee? Orally? O'Rally?
GA would have had that

not really, but what the hell. I’m bored

that was on Bulger

not Juan

bad route and SLOW
and like clockwork

the inherited runner scores

another inherited runner makes it around on our weak assed bullpen
Juancho's comedy club in session
oh for crying out loud
Can we start putting Matsui in for Rivera?
i feel bad for the rotation

its quite sad… its either pitch flawless or put the game in the hands of these ass clowns

We Got em right where we want em
bulger sucks
Sad thing is...it might as well be 20-0 the way we hit
we need a real GM

these interns turned Soth puppets ain’t cutting it.

cassaveh is coming in, were saved
pull this idiot
These guys still have the "St. Louis Blues"
shrinkidge for bulger
Mike's pissed...

he’s going to have another meeting!!!

you think Mike's pissed?

did you see Saundo going to the clubhouse?

Saundo probably is 1/2

pissed because the team is not scoring….no matter how you pitch is there is no offense or defense…..waste of time!! I think the real Angels stayed in St. Louis…don’t know who these guys are….

a circle jerk
hahahahahahaha

our bullpen is a big cirlce jerk

the whole team is in the running
he should have a meeting with the mirror and discuss his lame in-game moves
I'm starting to lose faith at this point....
im right there with u
WHAT THE FUCK (yes my one f***k for the month)

Just finished Lost. What was that a long clip show. oh my god i just wasted 2.5 hours of my life. i rather watch this game on a loop then that shit. So the island was real and the flashwhereever was purgatory? Holy shit that sucked

I read they were ALL

 dead and the whole thing was like an ghost whisperer, medium, thing…lmao!!!!

No. Flash sideways was heaven. Where everyone gets laid by the person of their dreams

it works for me

Jacob's ladder
Yea, but they didn't die via the plane crash

They died whenever and at some point met up in the Heaven they created

Yeah that's correct

Still a cop-out ending for a sci-fi/mystery show.

I never got into 'Lost'

the Angels have been enough ‘Lost’ for me so far

Me either...never watched the show....

all I know is what I read in the papers….the best ever finale show was Bob Newhart where it was all a dream and he woke up with his 1st wife Emily……

Exactly how I felt. It should have ended with a bang instaed of a whimper.
iocane powder.. oderless, tasteless, spent years building up an immunity to it....
so can Diego Montoya throw a curveball for a strike?

if so sign him up!

we need some of "miracle max's" special juice
so the halos are only

mostly dead?

fessick would be a great relief pitcher...

imagine how hard he can throw a baseball if he threw boulders like that

no kidding..

he would make even the east coast centric refs back off

vizzini can replace sosh with his incredible intellect
I don't even understand why Joe was pulled.

a walk yeah, but then an out, then pull him. wtf.

its a combination of

zero faith in the hitters and 109 pitches

Bulgerre' you paris street walker.
this cassdousche sucks too
What happened to this offense?
Another shitty game from the Angels?

Noooooooooo

and to think the Angels were actually the favorite for this game

in Vegas

they are perfecting the technique
rock the cassevah
fielding fail
3-run bullpen tax

Paid in full. The toll collector will see you again tomorrow.

I hope not. I have tickets to that game.
me too. at least we'll have the garden gnome
We'll always have Paris.
Where are you sitting tomorrow? Our tickets are behind the visitors dugout.
I too am going for the gnome

Sitting in 105

We're in 126, row G
burn in hell is on second
cassevah melon
prefer water melons

the Cassevah brand really sucks

Wow. Only 1 hit through six innings.....

What’s harder to believe, that stat , or that the single hit came from one Kevin Frandsen?

nobody

win the pregame pick… suffice to say

Tommorow

will anyone get a hit?

Franderson ruined the no-hittee
Izzy back tomorrow, Wed. the latest.....significant roster changes..
praise the egyptian gods

the boy king returns

I hope he can play every day
Told you Joe needed to throw a CG.
told you joe told you joe
complete game 0-2 loss
Would you rather watch the arson squad pour napalm on the fire?
no...I'd rather we hit the damn ball
I love the smell of napalm in the morning...

but.. you know the rest

why put cassavah in if hes going to cause more damage
Who do we have in the bullpen who isn't likely to cause more damage?
nvm ur right haha they all suck
why.....why.......why

did the front office do what it did why why why
ooooooooooh why

ANOTHER WALK

my god can you stop with the nibbling

In defense of nibbling

This is hardly nibbling. Most of these pitches are nowhere close.

I actually like Frandsen.

At least Sosh isn’t pulling a Steve Finley with Brandon Wood.

only the overpaid roiders

get the automatic lineup insertion

I thought he did it with stretching exercises
BoTG? The entire sucking offense
Dude Cassevah sucks

can anyone please explain to me what Kohn is doing in AAA. Threw another scoreless inning in AAA today. Best minor league reliever in our system the past 2 years now. Our best Spring Training reliever. Our bullpen in shambles and he’s throwing a ton of innings/pitches in the minors? GFG Angels!

Hopefully preparing to be this bullpen's savior
he may be up tomorrow

2 BB by Bobby Mama Cass will get him a ticky to Salt Lake

Oh god, if only we could send everyone in this bullpen who kept walking people down to Salt Lake

I think the bullpen catcher would be the only one there

My God this team sucks.
Its so bad it's almost funny
ok now it's funny
yea it is funny
I am actually laughing now
Awful. Awful. Awful.
Thanks Aybar
We're so bad
Ayayaybar! Jebus.
their announcers

“you just can’t do anything when you don’t have a good bullpen”

no kidding

oh...we don't have a good bullpen?
it's all perception

and 100% agony

Aybar suckage
soooo juice up the bases

and we’re gonna stick with cassevah… as oppose to just sticking with saunders from the start after 1 BB and an out

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha !!!!!!!
you are truly insane

or is it inane?

looks like aybar is crying ha
Geez.

WTF just happened, oh yeah the Blowpen

suckage in all quadrants
That inning went on forever

I’m ready for the game to be over now.

So, we need 7 runs, when we have had 2 baserunners up to this point? No big deal.
God Damn I miss Hud during games like these
Hell

I just miss Hud.

Is it time to retire the Rally Raaddad video?
Yes (please God....)

I’ve been punished enough for my sins

They're only human...that THING yesterday took a toll.
So.................how bout those Lakers!!???!!!
Celtics lost tonite
i guess we were due for a down year
Pythagoras called

He wants his wins back.

Crowd should demand a refund for this performance

This is just fail
can someone please get Kohn in the majors, put Cassevah down. The bullpen is fail. The offense is going to have days like this, but this is Toronto, not New York. These guys hardly walk at all.

They should ditch every reliever except Rodney and Pschyo and bring up any reliever

scub from the AAAA’s
