8/1 vs Seattle

[BornToRun]

BTR mojo is on a 2 game winning streak which makes him 10-2 on the year. We're going for the sweep tonight but it's Dempster vs Hernandez on the hill. It's not a favorable matchup but if anyone's mojo can bring this one home, it's mine. Get the sweep and then kick some Arizona ass before heading out on the road.

[mvp 78]

If they can pull this one out, you are the chosen one.

[BornToRun]

No worries. We got this. I'm calling it that either Pedey or Ells goes yard tonight.

Dempster had a rough start against Seattle on July 11, allowing seven runs (four earned) over 3.1 innings in a game the Sox came back to win. He is 1-0 with a 4.56 ERA in his last five starts. ... The Sox are 17-11 against the AL West. ... Seager is 11 of 27 with three extra-base hits and three walks in six games against the Sox this season.

Well that settles that then. JBay, I'm going to need a home address.

Thanks for your assistance.

That may be YOTN's address. I would avoid going there.

No Matter. I keep an AR15 in the car. I can handle him.

[Youk Of The Nation]

There is no Coyle Ave. in East Hartford.

You would know better than I.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Indeed. I also know that the firearm in your car would do you little good. By the time you found me in this city of 50 thousand people, I will have already thoroughly prepared for the assault. I wouldn't hesitate to destroy most of the county and massacre a half-million people to take you out.

 

But why should we fight? Let's ally against the rest of these jerks. At least if we work together, we know that our spree of murderous vengeance will be accompanied by a healthy number of witty and memorable one-liners. If we fight each other, only one of us will be left to remember them.

This sounds awesome. We're gonna go ahead and do this.

 

The rest of you are all f***ed.

Yeah, you all might as well surrender now. Not that we'll spare you or anything like that, don't be silly, but your destruction may be less painful. Probably not though.

If I drive into NYC with a rifle in my car, I'd get sodomized by the NYPD so quickly and thoroughly that it'd register on the Richter Scale.

Cats are smart and ruthless. If they saw us coming for you, they'd step aside and let us kill you in exchange for being able to eat your corpse afterwards.
