Fred's Brim said...: and so is Sherrill; 7/06/2010 9:36 PM
Josh S. said...: Mrs. S, after the Bonafacio hit:

"Why? Why not that kid, what's his name, Shefling, Shitling?"

She is killing me dead tonight.; 7/06/2010 9:36 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: I don't care too much for the Cardinals.; 7/06/2010 9:37 PM
Fred's Brim said...: and the lefty goes down
are you taking notes, Joe?; 7/06/2010 9:37 PM
Nostradamus said...: @db

At least your teams of choice are color-coordinated. I don't know what the fuck color I should wear half the time.; 7/06/2010 9:37 PM
Steve Sax said...: Josh S 9:35p that face made me snarf my wine; 7/06/2010 9:37 PM
Steve Sax said...: Who invited Kenny G?

Time to bounce.; 7/06/2010 9:38 PM
Paul said...: The Marlins announcers are talking about drinking games.; 7/06/2010 9:45 PM
Nostradamus said...: Blogger has got me paranoid. Any delay in commentary I immediately interpret as comment death.; 7/06/2010 9:45 PM
Fred's Brim said...: get one, X; 7/06/2010 9:46 PM
Nostradamus said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 7/06/2010 9:46 PM
Paul said...: Which one is the real Mr. C???; 7/06/2010 9:46 PM
Kyle Baker said...: I just went thru the same panic, Mr C. I even closed the browser, went back to the GT, refreshed several times, etc. Whew.; 7/06/2010 9:46 PM
Paul said...: Well one Mr. C deleted the other. So no use arguing about it.; 7/06/2010 9:48 PM
Josh S. said...: @Sax: You should have seen the face in person. I guess we both realized we had run out of words to complain about Sherrill. I laughed for a solid minute before I could pull myself together to post.; 7/06/2010 9:49 PM
Josh S. said...: When I post a comment, I get taken back to the first page. Annoying.; 7/06/2010 9:50 PM
Josh S. said...: @Paul: Dusty is a Marlins announcer?; 7/06/2010 9:51 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Tonight's episode of True Gametime Dialogue:

Dusty (during Lowe's commercial): [mutes TV] Shut up! There's nothing I want to see less of than white people shopping for home improvement products!

Mrs. Dusty: I thought you said before you hated those white-people-trying-to-buy-a-home shows.; 7/06/2010 9:51 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: Blogger is on the fritz, Plaschke's article about the All Star game makes sense, what's next, cats and dogs living together?; 7/06/2010 9:52 PM
Josh S. said...: FOUL. Cats and dogs joke already made by Mr. C on page one.; 7/06/2010 9:53 PM
Paul said...: Bartender I'll take a Schlichting!; 7/06/2010 9:54 PM
Josh S. said...: (I only noticed because I make the cats and dogs joke every chance I get.); 7/06/2010 9:54 PM
Steve Sax said...: I'm sorry about this blogger lameness, fellow dudes.

Blame ubragg.; 7/06/2010 9:55 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: I thought the cats and dogs thing was a recurring joke. And I stand by it.; 7/06/2010 9:55 PM
Josh S. said...: KCAL home run graphics are boss.; 7/06/2010 9:55 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Blogger is a cruel mistress. I feel like writing a cranky old man letter to them just so I'd feel better about it.

Maybe GAARP can help me compose it.; 7/06/2010 9:55 PM
Josh S. said...: Puh-thetic, JMart.; 7/06/2010 9:56 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: Oh. My. God. Johnson. Will. Face. Wood.; 7/06/2010 9:57 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Also:

Mrs. Dusty: [Eating stadium peanuts] Peanuts are weird.

MDIL: You know what else is weird? Corn.

This is what happens when we have a somewhat comfortable lead.; 7/06/2010 9:57 PM
Nostradamus said...: @Paul

Both Customers were correct. My itchy trigger finger is the culprit.; 7/06/2010 9:57 PM
Josh S. said...: 10 Make dick joke
20 Go to 10; 7/06/2010 9:57 PM
Steve Sax said...: oh yay, let's bring in Jonathan Broxton with a four-run lead. What could possibly go wrong???; 7/06/2010 9:58 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Hilarious!!! (re Johnson and Wood)

This is the moment we've all been waiting for.; 7/06/2010 9:58 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: The only person that would make this moment even greater would be Dick Pole.; 7/06/2010 9:59 PM
Steve Sax said...: @Josh S 9:56p: seriously. J Mart was walking back to the dugout before the Marlins' catcher had even caught the foul popup. At least pretend you care, Russell.; 7/06/2010 9:59 PM
Josh S. said...: Blake is one oversliding mofo.; 7/06/2010 9:59 PM
Paul said...: I am just giggling right now.; 7/06/2010 10:00 PM
Kyle Baker said...: That Joyce steal was a carbon copy of the play earlier.; 7/06/2010 10:00 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: I guess Johnson got Wood.; 7/06/2010 10:01 PM
Josh S. said...: That looked fair to me.; 7/06/2010 10:02 PM
Paul said...: The Marlins call these west coast games "Late Night with the Fish".; 7/06/2010 10:02 PM
Josh S. said...: RAFAEL FURCAL IS GOOD AT BASEBALL.; 7/06/2010 10:03 PM
karen said...: DeScore

7-2 Good guys; 7/06/2010 10:03 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Brox stopped throwing now, thank Ely.; 7/06/2010 10:04 PM
Steve Sax said...: five run lead means broxton has stopped throwing.

whew!; 7/06/2010 10:04 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: T-Slick to pitch the ninth.; 7/06/2010 10:04 PM
Nostradamus said...: @Josh

30 REM It never gets old, does it?

(not that kind of REM, but HT to Karina anyway); 7/06/2010 10:05 PM
karina said...: What is so special of Reed Johnson facing this Wood pitcher?

I'm sleepy...; 7/06/2010 10:05 PM
Steve Sax said...: I really hate Cody Ross.; 7/06/2010 10:05 PM
Josh S. said...: Kemp n' Dre having similar nights: 1 homer and 1 near miss each.; 7/06/2010 10:05 PM
Paul said...: The Fish announcers read incomming emails the whole game. It is kind of like if we did the play by play.; 7/06/2010 10:06 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: That flyball reminds me, when was the last time Eric Collins called a game? Feels like it's been some time.; 7/06/2010 10:06 PM
Steve Sax said...: JACKIE JOHNSON IS BACK ON KCAL 9!!!

Between this and the Mermaid photos, I'm having a great day; 7/06/2010 10:06 PM

Nostradamus said...: @dusty

Both peanuts and corn are both kinda weird, when you think about it.; 7/06/2010 10:07 PM
Steve Sax said...: DeWitt is out...did anyone else besides me notice he slid into home awkwardly?

Reminds me of the story I just mentioned in the Colletti post. I hope DeWitt isn't injured....; 7/06/2010 10:07 PM
Josh S. said...: DeWitt looks peachy in the dugout.; 7/06/2010 10:09 PM
karina said...: T-Slick, crossing fingers you make a good quick job

HT back to Mr C.; 7/06/2010 10:09 PM
Paul said...: Hu is down also. Can GAARP play the infield?; 7/06/2010 10:10 PM
Nostradamus said...: You know what else is weird? Using "both" twice in a sentence.; 7/06/2010 10:10 PM
Kyle Baker said...: @Sax

I couldn't tell whether Joyce was, er, adjusting himself or favoring a leg/groin/hammy. But yeah, I noticed.; 7/06/2010 10:10 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Hey Sax, have you posted anything on the main page about Colletti? If so, be sure to let us know about it.

;-); 7/06/2010 10:11 PM
Josh S. said...: We're gonna see Brox, kiddos.; 7/06/2010 10:12 PM

Fred's Brim said...: ugh; 7/06/2010 10:14 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: T-Slick is in a heap of trouble.; 7/06/2010 10:15 PM
Nostradamus said...: That's bad.; 7/06/2010 10:15 PM
Fred's Brim said...: a gift from Paulino; 7/06/2010 10:15 PM
Kyle Baker said...: Corn is indeed some weird shit. I grilled a lot of it over the weekend. Good, but weird.; 7/06/2010 10:16 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: So hear comes Broxton. Fantastic.; 7/06/2010 10:16 PM
Fred's Brim said...: double ugh; 7/06/2010 10:16 PM
Josh S. said...: OK, hold the damn phone...

What the fuck is so weird about corn and peanuts?; 7/06/2010 10:17 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: Tying run is on deck, so it's a save-situation.; 7/06/2010 10:18 PM
Wesley Vento said...: for one thing, they make it out whole in yer poop. that's kind of weird.; 7/06/2010 10:18 PM
Paul said...: Now a two minute commercial for values.com and you guys get Jackie Johnson. This is not fair.; 7/06/2010 10:19 PM
Paul said...: Helms kind of looks like Will Ferrel.; 7/06/2010 10:20 PM

karina said...: Dodgers win! (didn't want to go to bed before I was sure they win)

sweet dreams everyone!; 7/06/2010 10:24 PM
Kyle Baker said...: MDIL weighs in on corn: the texture is weird, and the way it's wrapped is different, and the way if you cook it different ways and does different things and has different flavors. And the poop thing.; 7/06/2010 10:24 PM
Steve Sax said...: PGT UP!; 7/06/2010 10:25 PM
Mr. LA Sports Czar said...: Ditto what HLACK said (Jackie, not corn poop).; 7/06/2010 10:25 PM
Nostradamus said...: @Josh

I don't know what spurred the comment in la casa de Baker, but they're both a sort of odd sibling in their family.

Peanut = bean masquerading as a nut.
Corn = mutant grain that is freakishly huge in comparison to others.

In an unrelated note, I am also considered the odd sibling in my family.; 7/06/2010 10:25 PM
Steve Sax said...: @Paul 10:19p: at least you don't have to sit through the Honda Mr. Opportunity commercial. It's almost not worth the Jackieness.; 7/06/2010 10:26 PM
