Ouch. Will the M's ever win the World Series? I still don't know how they didn't do it back when they had the Big Unit, Griffey, A-Rod, Buhner, Joey Cora, Edgar Martinez, etc. I picked quite a year to start following their season vicariously through ESPN and the internet. It looks like I have missed quite a circus show the last few years. I just hope that they don't lose their minds and trade Ichiro.

I still flinch when I read about baseball salaries. A superstar in hockey makes $9 million. That's a few select guys. No wonder Tom Glavine and Hershisher chose baseball over hockey, eh?

It's probably his wife's fault.


And yay for posting on a message board from my iPod touch.

nah, the brewers will move here and become the microbrewers. Fcuk sh!ttle.

Biff,
Took pops to the Mariners game yesterday, good times. Classic Snate style (no shirt), saw a home run (by the DC Nationals) that was actually foul, dad (and the thousands of other people there) found that to be pretty un-tight. All in all a good time.
It makes me a little bummed that we (here in Oregon) aren't closer to Seattle, I always have a blast going to the games. Perhaps someday P-town will get a MLB team. However we'd for sure end up getting stuck with some crap name... like the Cornhollers

That would set things right in the world again. I have lamenting to the wife lately about how I need a Mariners jersey to rep the NW out here. Or at least an Ms ball cap. It would be nice to see Griffey go out in Seattle. The man was a god there.

I remember catching a game a few years back on TV and when he came to the plate I thought it might be his son or something. I was flabbergasted that he was still going. You have to love baseball, where Phil Niekro played til he was at least 75, judging from his '84 Topps card.

You sir, are truly an aycehole. See if you can smell Ichiro's maple bar from there. I bet you can. Bastard.

Yea I don`t get it they are either flush or bust we need some consistency. The diamondbacks are looking fierce. Do you get to go to any diamond back games. You might want to check but most major markets always have tuesday cheap seats. And grow some balls man just get the package then proceed to let her know that she needs to have the boiled peanuts and warm beer on stand by. Fukin cowboy up bromania!

Stunna - Sexson got mad robbed on that homer. Would have been his third of the game, too.

I'm stoked - the gf just got hooked up with Mariners tickets. So, we're going up to Safeco on May 31st. And, it looks like it's on Fox, nationally televised style. Don't know why that would be, considering they're playing Detroit, but that's what their schedule says. It's a Saturday, starts around 1PM.

Dude, I am so going to Intentional Wok and getting some stir fry while we're there.

I guarntee you the dodgers will not finish last in the nl west. cmon. Also did any one see the the robbing of sexon v the angles. That fukin homer would have tied the game

Well, the Mariners have not started strong.

Richie Sexson is Buhner-esque at times. Likes to strike out or hit huge dingers.

Thankfully, Texas is terrible. They will keep the M's out of the cellar in the AL West.

And, the Dodgers and Giants are really fighting it out for last place in the NL West.

Aztex is pretty awful. At least spell it correctly, you know?

Dumb team names? How about the Toronto Raptors? I don't know why, but I really hate their logo of a basketball playing dinosaur. I get it, you liked Jurassic Park. Bleh.

I pity a Giants fan this season. They are looking horrible.

And yes, Sky Sox is terrible. And putting Colorado Springs in front of it just makes it a tongue twister.

Sidewinders, on the other hand, is sweet.

Only in the minors will there be bring your dog night, with cheap hot dogs to just push the whole dog theme over the brink. Awesome.

I hate no team in sports, except for maybe the Yankees and Cowboys, like I hates me some Dodgers. Just so we are clear. The Giants aren't far behind on that list.

The stuuna is a die hard dodgers fan and we are looking good this year. Lets taske it back to gibson circa 88. And c-dog has yet to pay the betof last year. We have a yearly bet of a cnote between the dodgers and the san fran corn holers. If nothng else I will watch them suffer this year.

Dudes, I got a "promotion" down here at the park. Not only am I operating the wall during games but I'm designing and creating all the still slides that we put up there. Hence my recent absence from this board. It's going pretty well so far. I've gotten a lot of good feedback and things have been going pretty smoothly. Opening Day was awesome: 60 degrees, sunny and the Beavers won.

Let me know a week in advance if you guys want some tickets. Something changed about the way they comp tix down here so we have to do things farther in advance this year.

The Beaves won last night as well so they're 2-0 to start the season.

As a true Timbers fan, may I just say one thing? Fcuk ****tle! (The Mariners too) I'll root for the Padres since the Beaves are their Triple A affiliate.

Hot dogs

I really want to make it to a Mariners game this year, I haven't been in a while. So yeah, I see a Sunday afternoon game happening this summer.

We should meet up for a Beavers game. I had fun at the one I went to last year.

EA, are you still running the big board?

Is it just me, or does Drunk Shirtless Snate sound like a pretty good band name?

You paint a funny picture, Doctor.

Yeah, it's pretty sweet, the Mariners are on FSN like every day here. They won their opener, they're really going to be a force. They hired Norm Charlton as their bullpen coach. Awesome.

I think Maddux is still playing for the Padres.

I've got the DVR set to record Baseball Tonight every evening. I'm ready to let Kruk drop all kinds of knowledge.
