Game 160 Thread: Oct 1 vs. D'backs, 7p

John Ely (4-9, 5.10) vs. Zach Kroenke (0-0, 21.60).

COMMENTS: It's the last series of this regrettable 2010 season, and I, am, in misery. But sort of like Adam Levine getting abused by Anne Vyalitsyna, here I am, enjoying the fact that I'm back for at least one more GameThread. Ely, whose 2010 career trajectory matches the arc of the Dodgers' season, takes the mound to try and win the first of three games that we'd need to claw our way back to .500. Can you even believe that, after two straight postseason appearances, we're talking about holding out a glimmer of hope that we'll make it back to absolute mediocrity? Forgive me if I'm a little Kroenke. I'm going to go sit by the pool. Right, Anne?

Yes, it's pet blessing day all around. Instead of that, Frankie got a bath today.

Wait, Mr F...you go to a place of worship where they said one could have a stuffed animal blessed?

karina said...

@Steve Sax if he likes Joy Division, there's a great chance he likes New Order too. Still a keeper, MB

@Spanky that was a funny disgrace. I'm sorry for you and I'm sorry to have laughed at your misfortune

karina said...

Mr F, do you allow Mr LASF bullies you?


psst Mr LASF I live your bullying ;)

karina said...

^love

karina said...

@Mr F @Dusty Coper is going to that blessing today, tomorrow morning we're going to a March for animal rights and he'll go to another blessing on Monday but my mom will drive him because I have IELTS course :(

Kyle Baker said...

Coper is going to be one blessed pup!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

We've been locked in the eternal battle for Smonk for more than four months now. It's a battle of will and determination. If you can't take the bullying, you don't deserve the stuffed sock monkey with a blog's logo stitched into its arm.

We don't even stay on topic in actual threads.

MR.F said...

@Dusty, The tagline for the church is "All Are Welcome."

Kyle Baker said...

You're breaking him down, MLASF. I don't want to read about Mr F on the front page, with a pic of someone being marched to the insane asylum in a straitjacket mumbling something about sock puppets and Steve Garvey.

MR.F said...

What sucks is how Greg decided to take active part in the battle to the death. And Mr. Customer and Spanky and Dusty occasionally throw in torture posts.

Kyle Baker said...

@MLASF

That's what made my ====== ironic.

MR.F said...

Marched to the insane asylum? I'm currently posting from the insane asylum!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'm getting tired of the Seinfeld. I'm now posting derogatory things about Frank in other languages. Of course, things often get lost in translation.

"I hit him with a large pancake must waddle to the court in the great vaults, I fall over Frank's head."

MR.F said...

I read that as:
"I'm getting tired blah blah blah blah blah."

Who's getting worn down now?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I SHALL NEVER SURRENDER

Kyle Baker said...

@Mr F

I'm in the next cell!

karina said...

@Dusty he already is! but some help from the higher powers can't hurt him.Besides, it's time Coper becomes a father and this could be a great opportunity to meet a nice lady. He has dated a lot but never has impregnated any of his girlfriends :(

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

@Karina - You make Bob Barker cry.

MR.F said...

@Karina, I'm not sure if our family pet (TJ) has ever been blessed. I can't recall ever taking her.

Kyle Baker said...

Wait, Karina, so you're using the blessing ceremony as a dating opportunity for Coper? Hilarious.

This is similar to southern methodists, except with people not dogs.

Kyle Baker said...

Two men on, no outs for Pod Rays to start the game.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

"Moron that Frank is not good enough to park my car. I wish to enter into the slot and must travel through the sewage system to know in what way, only to realize that in the Lair of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who was killed for the infringement on its territory."

MR.F said...

Come on Yorvit!

MR.F said...

1-0 Lesser Evils!

BBRBI for Yorvit!

*Gnats walk in first run*

Kyle Baker said...

Bullpen already going to work. Wow.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Another walk!

MR.F said...

2-0!!!

MeanieBreanie said...

@karina
I so love ya sista. You see the absolute good in everyone and everything.

MB is beside herself with joy. She is out practicing retail therapy and bought 3 pairs of shoes that put Jamie McCourt's spikes to shame.

MR.F said...

Damnit Headley.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Up jumps the devil!

Kyle Baker said...

GIDP for Jints. Who would have guessed.

MR.F said...

Zito has better luck in the 2nd inning.

Kyle Baker said...

Not starting out the 3rd well, though.

NicJ said...

pads look like a loose team.

gints look tighter than sandoval's belt.

MR.F said...

Come on Scott Hairston!

NicJ said...

Pandafail!!!

NicJ said...

i think gonzo was in.

MR.F said...

In?

NicJ said...

in before the out was made at third

MR.F said...

Ah.

Kyle Baker said...

I can't believe that run didn't count. Even if it was right about the same time, come on. To get routine neighborhood calls turning DPs at second, but not get that call?

Boooooooooooooooooooooo!

NicJ said...

good point, DB.

NicJ said...

ZitoFail.

Kyle Baker said...

Zito is done.

Unfortunately. Because he was going to give up more runs.

Nostradamus said...

*yawns*

Mornin', people! Well, second morning anyway.

Kyle Baker said...

Is it time for second breakfast, Mr. C?

Steve Sax said...

I'm up! What's going on?

Oh shit, I really overslept here...

MR.F said...

Wow you just woke up?

Kyle Baker said...

Yall some lazy-ass bitches. Or hungover. Or both.

NicJ said...

an airhorn?

stay classy SF.

@dusty

Second breakfast literally under my belt. Sadly, elevensies had to be scrapped due to time constraints.
