I'll be at the game tonight as a "host"/"chaperone"

another stupid "Leyland Lineup" tonight...

Curtis Granderson, CF
Clete Thomas, LF
Carlos Guillen, 3B
Miguel Cabrera, 1B
Matt Joyce, RF
Gary Sheffield, DH
Edgar Renteria, SS
Ramon Santiago, 2B
Dane Sardinha, C


Eddie Bonine, P




this may be the worst lineup of the season...

Any lineup with Edgar Renteria in it sucks.

justmessingeventhoughhereallydoesneedtostepitthefu ckup

My Zekyl, why can't we ever get out of the 1st without giving up runs to these guys?

Eddie Bonine = piece of shit...

he was only effective in his 3 starts Vs. NL Teams...

Zach Miner better be ready to start...

I can't even remember the last time we scored first vs these bitches.

even that time we beat them like 12-1 back in April, they scored the first run in that game on a Dellucci HR...

OT...Fucking mother fuckin son of a bitchin, cock suckin, dick lickin, horse shitin, cock suckin mother fuckin cock suckers...or something.

Paul better watch his ass when he faces Miguel the second time around.

even that time we beat them like 12-1 back in April, they scored the first run in that game on a Dellucci HR...

Can you believe we lead the season series? I know I can't.

It's a not-so-well-known fact HGH will only help you for 1 inning... it's going to be Bye Bye Byrdy pretty soon. :sirdouche:

Or just drop an inept bunt with an inept runner on second and waste an out with a leadoff double.

WHEN I SAY BONINE YOU SAY SUCKS

BONINE!

WHEN I SAY BONINE YOU SAY SUCKS

BONINE!

BONINE!

SUCKS!

DANTONIO!!!

Do the Tigers get some sort of bonus for every runner they leave stranded on base this year?

BOOTLICK!

Dantonio: bad ass.

Bonine: sucks ass.

Some of these interviews with guests in the booth are just brutally painful to watch.

Nice turn.

Pride before the Fall, Cleveland.

"Thanks for having us, guys"?

Oh dear, Mark is nuts.

Come on Shef

BONINE!

Seriously, how many Mudhens do we have playing for the Tigers right now?

"I'm Maria Shriver, long-time journalist..."

Yeah Maria, so when's the last time you actually did some actual reporting?

O HEY, just woke up and Bonine sucks. O TIgers suck too.

COUNT THAT BABY. [smilie=blaha.gif]

Don't look now, but the Tigers are within 3.[smilie=blaha.gif]

JOYCE!!!

NO WAY!!!!!!!

OH FUCK A GOAT!!!

Uhhh....wow?

Can't sneak a piece of cheese by a rat. http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/2057/55179107he0.png

That boy Matt Joyce is COUNTRY STRONG!

Told ya

Great play by C-Lo. Go ahead now, C-Lo. http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/2057/55179107he0.png

When did Guillen become such a good 3rd baseman?

Like a fish out of water at 1st, but not at 3rd.

THIS MOTHERFUCKER IS CLUTCH!!!

WALKOFF WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Walk off

HE IS WHO WE THOUGHT HE WOULD BE

LMAO @ the Indians

These comeback wins might actually start giving me hope.

Go 'head now, Carlos. Go 'head now, Marcus. Go 'head now, Miguel. Great 9th.

It don't make no nevermind to me who does it.

Tigers, dude.

Did I hear that correctly? The Indians have lost 10 straight?

Not sure about 10 straight but they have flat out sucked lately. I thought the CC trade might spark them...thought wrong.

day game manana

DETROIT(AP) Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run homer in the ninth inning and the Detroit Tigers rallied from an early six-run deficit, beating Cleveland 8-6 Wednesday night and sending the Indians to their 10th straight loss.

lol @ Cleveland.

God, I fucking hate the White Sox.

Tahoe?? Couples rooms?? Happy Endings??

Go 'head on, now. 'Head on to South Lake Tahoe.

This next set of "games" are huge. Of course it would help if the ChiSox would drop a game here or there.

Reminder: Day game today - 1:05

God, I fucking hate the White Sox.

I hate the Royals a whole lot more. They just blow... except when they play the Tigers.

Not sure about 10 straight but they have flat out sucked lately. I thought the CC trade might spark them...thought wrong.


The CC trade was the white flag.

^ gotcha and bump day game today so game on minni in town i'll take a series win

Nice play by Larish coming home for the out.

Couple more nice defensive plays there with Pudge throwing out a runner at 3rd and CG with a nice snag and throw to 1st for the out.

we're still not in the clear, minny's still got life...

for me to feel comfortable vs. the twins, we have to be up by 6 runs with only two innings left and 6 hitters away from mauer

Just caught a break on a home run by minni, ruled a double by the umps.

Fuck me.

bitch!

It's time for Zoom to take over as the closer.

Seriously.


[/oldbit]

Wait, I forgot that Jones is on my fantasy team.

Disregard.

lol @ you

this bullpen is a joke

I WAS PREPARED TO LOVE THIS TEAM

Way to blow it.

Morneau is ghey.

To do list:

1. Kill Todd Jones
2. Kill Matt Joyce
3. Sleep

it's time to sleep now

This game could come back to haunt "us" later.

Fuck, we're done.

If we do not win this series, we do not make the playoffs. We need the momentum badly.

bleh

Bat on the shoulder ending...fuck.

Clete Thomas is a douchebag.

3. Sleep
Walter?

COME ON!!! I've still got the faith. Knock this shit in!

FUCKER.

[smilie=death.gif]

Yep, this season is over, I'm calling it. It was a decent effort to come back to 500-ish. Decent at best.

Well, I'm not ready to say "it's over" but it's going to be awfully hard to catch Chicago from this far back, especially with their pitching. I doubt that they'll have any kind of lengthy losing streak.

It was fun to see them get 22 hits yesterday and still lose, though.

It's not over if they can win the series against those teams. You can't keep dropping series to division rivals though.

Yeah Pudge! Maggs with a nice double too.

That's 4 hits for Pudge.

That's going to leave a mark.

7-4 , Birds.

No matter what else happens this season, Marcus Thames deserves some props. He's up to 19 homers now in 195 At Bats. That ratio's Bonds/McGwire territory.

Tigers are gaining ground by playing .500 ball.
The MLB is wacky

But naturally, the Royals are up, and with this chance to challenge the division, they will fold like punk bitches.

Is anyone seeing this?

Unfortunately, I'm afraid it will be like the last time we blew a team out. Remember we beat the Twins 19 to something, then scored 1 run over the next two games and lost 3 in a row?

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=280723107

I totally didn't know that we had a day game today.

We're up 5-0, too!

Yipeeeeeeeee

Why do I say such stupid things??

(Vinny fixed again)

You've gotta be fucking kidding me. I thought we were safe with wil on vacation.

I picked a grrrrrrreat time to drop Galarraga from the ol' fantasy team.

Nothing to see here

Dude.

This is the first game I've been able to watch in well over a month.
Opposing teams are hitless vs my viewership in July.

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=280723107



Hay, did you guys check out the "Game Notes" at the bottom?

Please turn on this game if you're reading this and have access to a TV.

Oh well.

Thanks a lot guys.

Dejesus, it's always DEJESUS, DAMNIT

I hope DeJesus joins the Indians. I've always hated him on the same level that I hate the Indians.

I jinxed it on purpose. As much as a perfect game or no-hitter would have been cool, I'm facing the guy with him in my head-to-head fantasy league. I figured it would be great if he gave up 6 runs but the Tigers held on for the win.

Only 3 games back of the Twins now thanks to the Yanks. Still 5.5 back of the White Sox though. We really need to win the series against them this weekend. Too greedy to want a sweep?

Too greedy to want a sweep?

hell no, keep those girls busy

Anyone want to pretend there is a game on?

I wish we had remote access to Tahoe's (R.I.P.) DVR.

Here comes the inevitable White Sox comeback.

Prepare to lose.

Prepare to die.

Bingo.

We have the lead again!

I can see clearly now the rain is gone...

Good to see you back, 'hoe.

Thanx ERay

Dye up. I'm peeing my pants.

mother fucker

WHITE SOX BABY

god damn son of a bitch

fuckin jones...can you groove a mother fuckin pitch more than that son of a bitch?

Fucking shit cocksucker Jones, you piece of failing shitfuck.

We're in the fucking top three in murder rates every fucking year and we still can't find someone to shoot Todd Jones?

Our parade is SOAKED

We're in the fucking top three in murder rates every fucking year and we still can't find someone to shoot Todd Jones?


HAAAAAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHA!! POST OF THE YEAR, VINNY. Good shit.

LMAO @ 878

I'll never forgive Ledezma for getting Dumbrowski to trade for Renteria, and I will never forgive Todd Jones' mother for not getting an abortion.

Worst loss of the season.

Todd Jones being shot dead = best loss in history.

Solid.

Season over.

I am not going to sleep easy tonight. Piss out my ass.

I hate my avatar

I hate my avatar

LOL

that was balls

Is that his 3rd blown save this year?
OMFG TRADE, CUT, KILL !!!!!!

Any guy can come in with a three run lead and close it out. You can't tell me that Todd Jones is not one of the worst closers in the league.

JV with 45 pitches through 2, lol.

Rod Allen needs to stop saying git 'r done.

Fuck this team.

I hate the White Sox more than any team in any sport, even the Cleveland ones.

God, we're so gay sometimes.

DONE.

Our 'surge' officially starts today or something...

Since we're pretty much out of it, I'm going to go ahead and predict we win tonight.

8-3 Tigers.

I'm gonna watch but you never know for sure if it might be more fun go to an old folks home and lick the balls of some old grandpa.

Now I've never done that and it's not high on my list of things to do, but watching some of these Tigers games is getting a lil hard to take.

fur real

Love the new Avi SDB.

Was the Appalachian State one too hard to bare? HUH, WAS IT?

itsinmysignow


also, thanks! I like it too.

I don't think I saw it as an Avi. Or did you have it for a while?


BTW...You are part Commie rollin with an Apple St sig. You like OSU too?

I'm an OSU grad, so yeah.

How does 5 in a row sound?

SDB...Its time to start a new game thread. What should it be called? Hell or something?

Nice.

Is that the dude that was skinned alive?

It was the decomposing dude John Doe tied up.

I watched the movie for the first time in a while last night and that almost made me shit my pants.

THERE IS STILL HOPE!

PREPARE TO DYE!
i wish i would've posted that prior to Jermaine's gamewinner

nice call, ump

jeezus

Gum time for the Indians.

Since we're pretty much out of it, I'm going to go ahead and predict we win tonight.

8-3 Tigers.

Coge...

Coge...

NOT!

Did GD put Alpacas on tonights game?

^ Answer: No. Not in the context of his statement.

Coge.....DENIED!

How's the new place?

I'm ok with it. Went from 7000 sq ft to 2300. Its ok though. I should start building the next one in the next month. I like have 2mil less in liabilities. :)

How is the boy getting along?

The boy is doing just fine. He was accepted to Cal Poly but they needed to see one more Stats grade or something. He was officially accepted last week. I thought you could only be accepted once.

Congrats, glad to hear it. He getting into engineering? Civil?

Structural

One day the boy is going to be tired of the old man calling him the boy.

yea boy. won one. i'm so excited i could just shit.

re:game ^

Nah - just enjoy that martini.

I call him Mijo mostly and by his name when he is troub.

THERE IS STILL HOPE!

You see that? Forget it.

This is over, for real.:emo kid:

Unsticky the thread.

Another not-so-quality outing for Nate so far.

Great baserunning, Gary!

Great baserunning, Gary!

Asshole.

Glenn or Gary, take your pick.

Die, Todd.

These fuckers are fuckin something or something.

If we could pull this bitch out, it would be a lil bit of a cushion after losing Pudge.

Bases loaded!

This could very well be the defining game of this season.

^ Yep

If by defining you mean blown save, then yes.

Kelly freakin Shoppach???? You have gotta be kidding me...

Farnsworth just got the closer's spot.

Train wreck, anyone?

Delucci's gonna Knock this one Out.

Shit! Walkoff for Cleveland... lol

Edgar Renteria-Ledezma strikes out.

BranDONE. Time for the walk off.

Even though my post was preemptive, I was about 96% sure it was going to happen.

Even though we're going to lose, I must say I am awfully proud that we were able to come back from being down 8-1 and 11-7 to tie the game and take the lead (however, I'm not proud we blew said lead).

Imagine if we hadn't had so many letdowns this year after things started to build up... I'd have to say we'd be leading the division. Oh well, we seem destined for failure this year.

NO WORRIES! Farnsworth will be here soon to save our bullpen!

Marte'd?

Nope, Gonzalez'd.

Seay'd.

I'm done with this junk... Tired of getting my extremely small hopes up to slightly less than moderate.

Horay for Placido!

Let's hope Zumaya can come in and shut the door (would they not use him after working more than an inning last night?). I don't think they have anybody else to use.

Couldn't stay up till the end. Fun game to watch though.

I couldn't stay up either. But I read the play by play and Fossum loaded up the bases with nobody out in the 12th... and got out of it??? The Indians have to be kicking themselves this morning.

Game on - weird play on the second batter of the game.

I watched it to the end. Weird game, but loved the win. I was hatin Fossum for a while there.

I LOVE THIS TEAM

1-0

(I'm still bummed that Vinny apparently said that first)

Did they say if Fansy is available today?

I read that he was having trouble getting a flight.

Not sure, though.

I'm sure he is overjoyed about coming back to Detroit.

I dunno, he can make himself a lot of money for next year if he performs well.

But you are right, he was upset to leave the Yanks.

Seems like he gets upset whenever he gets traded.

(gotta find the new bars)

I didn't read any of his comments but assumed he'd rather stay in New York.

IF we can get this thing going, he'll be fine.

But he knows the Detroit bars. They haven't changed much in a couple years.

But he knows the Detroit bars. They haven't changed much in a couple years.

Silver lining, for sure.

I don't think we've been 4 games over .500 all year.

Those dumb bastards

Hey SDB, hows things?

Good, and how are things over on your end?

Beeeeautiful!

Which hot celeb did you bed last night?

Just talked to one of my friends back in Michigan and i miss the state. You lucky fuckers that live don't know what you have there.

Which hot celeb did you bed last night?

Ms Michigan

Oh, I'm sure we do...

Ms Michigan

Nice!

I miss Michigan. I can't come back this year.

Hows the addition coming along? If you know what I mean.

Say, Tahoe...I'm gonna be out in Cali visiting some buddies I went to school with (Fresno State). If you're not busy or anything, maybe we can hang out?

hang out = http://www.shroomery.org/forums/files/08-15/788692282-bong.jpg

I told you. Send him packing at the end of the year and use his money on Texiera.

I told you. Send him packing at the end of the year and use his money on Texiera.

Where do you put Cabrera? DH? Or third and Guillen to short?

Yes, DH Cabrera. You can try him again at third in the offseason to see if his fielding improves, but I wouldn't bank on it.

Yeah we could DH Cabrera if we got Teixeira. What about 3rd and short next year? We could trade some prospects for A-Rod Imagine tis lainup!

CF Granderson
2B Polanco
RF Ordonez
3B A Rod
DH Cabrera
1B Teixeira
SS Guillen
LF Thames/Joyce
C Inge

Way to derail it. I'm sure we can find a SS better than Renteria next year. Furcal and Cabrera will be out there.

Well, it worked last time, so here it is.

Tigers 7
Ays 4

Fansy with the save.

^lol

Oh, this is that game that they are joining in progress at 7:06 pm, right?

which 'they' have not joined in progress yet for me.

I'm done.

Somebody put the girls on standby.

For the first time this season, I'm saying we're done. Let it be known, I didn't cave it in back in April like some people here (and all of 97.1).

I have an offseason priority thing I want to share with you guys (aspiring MLB GM here), but I have to go to church, so I'll do it later.

Done then, done now, what's the difference?

Besides hours upon hours of my wasted time.

How Wil couldn't see this back in April is beyond me. Does he live in a world where the fall comes before the pride?

Well, if we would've won last Friday's game Vs. the White Sox, I'd bet we'd be in 2nd place right now...

That was the turning point. Since then, shit has gone downhill. Fast.

Calling SDB, calling SDB.

DETROIT BASEBALL IS ON THE AIR!

We're in the race. Don't give up yet! We can do this.

SHEF!
