2011 MLB Thread - Part II

[GirlsAloudFan]

Zack Stewart of the White Sox has a perfect game going into the Seventh against the Twins.

I don't know if this was intentional because it's part of your attempt at a jinx, but his name is Zach. Not Zack.

I don't know if this was intentional because it's part of your attempt at a jinx, but his name is Zach. Not Zack.

Or I really don't give a shit either way.

I took a lot of pleasure watching it get ruined...not for Zach(k), but for the Hawk. Fuck is he annoying.

The guy pitched a hell of a game though. Hats off to him. One hit game - pretty impressive.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Oh, you don't like Hawk? I never would have guessed.

 

[DaveC]

Phillies. Yes.

That is all.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Watching the Braves-Phillies game...

See, this is how umpire crews should work. They're human, they make the wrong call sometimes... well handled.

 

[PhilsFan]

When are they finally going to fire C.B. Bucknor?

 

[LuckyNumber7]

He totally knew right away that he made a dumb call.

 

[PhilsFan]

Which is an improvement for him. Usually he has no idea he made yet another dumb call.

If I'm commissioner, Bucknor, West, Wolf, Rapuano, Danley ... they're all gone.

 

[Hewson]

Tim Wakefield will never get W #200.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Not when he pitches like that he wont...

 

[Hewson]

Not when he pitches like that he wont...

Bullpen gave up 5 runs in the 8th(and one in the 7th), not Wakefield.

It almost feels as though Nyjer Morgan posts on EYKIW:

nyjer morgan is a splendid human being.

Yeah, it's wasn't Wakefield's fault this time. Bad timing for Bard to have his worst ever appearance.

 

[PhilsFan]

Eric O'Flaherty is on the list. He joins Jonathan Sanchez, Mike Pelfrey, and John Lannan.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Buck Showalter is a shitbag!

Underachieving pitchers who may or may not have a problem with licking their fingers?

 

[PhilsFan]

People who fucked with Chase Utley.

 

[phanan]

The Red Sox can start winning games anytime now.

MLB has told the Mets that they can't wear first responder hats today to commemorate 9/11, as has been their tradition for 10 years.

I say they tell MLB to fuck off and wear them anyways. I'd love to see the umpires make them forefit

 

[LuckyNumber7]

I don't really keep up with politics but... it seems like everything in regards to 9/11 on it's 10th anniversary has been kept very, very low key.

Maybe it's just me though...

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Umm... what?

 

[LuckyNumber7]

What what? It is what it is. I said today seems very low key for the 10th anniversary. What more do you want? An essay?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I'd like to know what rock you've been living under today if you think things have been low key.

 

[PhilsFan]

If by low key, you mean mentioned in every broadcast of everything for basically a week, then it's been very low key.

 

[Imperor]

9/11 changed everything.

 

[PhilsFan]

"Our country, nay, our world, was irrevocably altered on September 11th, 2001."

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Well of course the news is going to sit on it all day as expected, but I was expected a grandiose commemoration as opposed to the more low-key, somber mood presented just about everywhere on the 10th anniversary.

 

[PhilsFan]

Just yesterday at the Penn State game, the entire halftime ceremony was a 9/11 tribute, and before the game there was a military flyover.
