6/4 - beating the devil right back into the rays

[Thumper]

It's not that my opinion differs from you. It's that your opinion is so blatantly wrong and yet you continue to say it.

 

But why am I wrong and you're right? A bit ignorant don't you think?

[TheKilo]

Is Gameday dead for anyone else?

Yes.

There hasn't been a Triple Crown winner since 1967. You suggested there will be two. That is wrong.

 

You also said Jacoby Ellsbury will hit 500 home runs.

Oh I know two won't win it. That was a dumb/bold.. dumb prediction. But I do consider Hamilton a contestant for it. And Ellsbury is still a rookie, you can't really say either way.

 

And no one's done it since '67, true, but look...

 

[table=comparison]Player|Date|BA|HR|RBI

Yastrzemski|May 1967|.301|8|22

Hamilton|May 2008|.322|8|29[/table]

 

Doesn't that count for anything?

Head a'splode

[Thumper]

No.

 

And why not? Hamilton is hitting better than Yaz did in May of his Triple Crown season, and has more RBI. Why doesn't that count for anything? Not even a slight possibility, not to mention the fact Hamilton is staying consistant. I think it could count for some speculation of a chance.

Damn, Remy's riffing is actually funny tonight! He really hates fags. lol.

What's he saying? I'm blacked out from NESN since the game's on ESPN.

[Cocos Disciples]

And Ellsbury is still a rookie, you can't really say either way.

 

Whaaaaaat? No. He's not a power hitter. Only, what, 24 players have EVER hit 500 home runs, and they were all extremely good hitters who consistently hit for power for a very very long time. I'd be surprised if he hit 200 in his career.

Yeah I know, stupid call from all the hype made in the end of last year. Stupid indeed.

 

But dammit if he can't steal bases.

[Cocos Disciples]

It's not even the hype. Nobody ever hyped him as a home run hitter. Its just flat out wrong.

[Thumper]

It's not even the hype. Nobody ever hyped him as a home run hitter. Its just flat out wrong.

 

And I'm admitting my mistake. It was indeed, a stupid call.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Haha man you're constantly drooling over Hamilton

 

?

 

The only time I've mentioned Hamilton so far is Alexander, not Josh.

[Thumper]

Brett Myers walked Griffey, Jr. a second time. f***ing ****.

[ORS]

Do the voices ever scare you, Thumper?

You learn to live with it.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Haha Coco...

[Thumper]

Did Coco get confused and think the ball went into the outfield or something?

[TheKilo]

I bet that's as far as Lugo can hit a baseball, too.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Yes.

Whats the problem here?

[Thumper]

Whats the problem here?

 

Uhh, I'd like to see Griffey hit 600?

 

Nice K by Delcarmen.

[TheKilo]

MDC!

[TheKilo]

I'd looove to see Hansen in the 8th.

Tito prefers some Okidokie time.

[TheKilo]

f*** yeah

[ORS]

Question for the guy pitching the 7th. Who are you, and what did you do with the real MDC?

[a700hitter]

Best outing of the year by MDC striking out the side.

[yeszir]

Can you believe I haven't heard the Okajima song until just now? I googled it. This is TERRIBLE.
