hi

JasonHeywardisGod - July 15, 2010 reply

OUTZZZ thread

then eventually RUNZZZ thread.

Is Corey Hart wearing his sunglasses tonight?

highly likely

So he can, so he can
Keep track of the visions in his eyes

More runs Braves

I answered you on the other thread, but didn’t see the link to this one until after.
Here’s what I said at your greeting:
. . . . . .
Hey there lady!
I was out having steak dinner with girlfriend and a bit of shopping after.
I almost got a speeding ticket trying to get back home…listening on the radio. LOL

+1 if you shit your pants when JHEY went down

+1

I was in the bathroom

and turned the TV up so I could hear while I was in there.

So yes, I did.

Your...pants?

i actually was shitting while it happened

but i paused the TV when i went in so it was delayed for me

Let's stop this conversation

haha

ok mang

one of those guys who cant say what they do?

like the CIA

Hahaha

Not quite, but sure, if you want to know, I’m one of the site moderators.

ya that makes sense

no, its because he never left mom’s basement

+2

if you shit your pants for no reason whatsoever! If shitting your pants is cool, then consider me Miles Davis!

haha

i believe its peeing your pants lol

It is, but I adapted it to fit this conversation. I’ve been waiting all day long to be able to drop this one in.

im bet your very proud of your self

My mom is.

Hart has a weird stance

Bring the speeeed Blanco

Damnit Gregor

throw more baseballs next time.

I say we trade that though young McLouth prospect from AAA for Sunglasses at Night …

Ever since Hanson hit Braun with the fastball in May

he hasn’t been the same.

Ol' bug eyes up to bat..

Bug Eyes

cant see in Milwaukee

Once Joe said the hit stat

I knew Braun would get a hit.

If I may ask... I saw a listing of players on a team on the previous thread.

What was that? I’m on the bench for something I think…

I think it's a TC lineup

which could tear apart Brewers pitching.

we’re fielding a team to play the Brewers tomorrow. You’re either on the bench or giving that up to MBL1 to be official mascot. Your choice.

Oh yeah. Official cards are being made by TheLetter2

Would I have to wear a hot furry costume?

haha. Depends on what you design

“Mascot” is pretty vague. I could be a “Cheermeister!”

Alright. Than Cheermeister it is!

Do I get a gun/cannon thing to shoot things into the crowd?

of course! You get whatever you want, as long as Hubby tags along

You know,

It’s a fetish to, you know what, nevermind

why is philly such a dirty city?

mostly because its jampacked with phillies fans

nfierstos10 - July 15, 2010 reply

Also, Iggles fans.

Poor street-cleaning

Whenever it snows, and they sand the streets, the sand just accumulates, until the bums have enough silt to build Mayan-like temples before the city ordinances find out and destroy them. The circle of life.

Bums: Making a Mess all Over the City

gimme back my bat, dee

Qtips - July 15, 2010 reply

great episode

and great show

http://cbs3.com/topstories/Animals.Earp.Street.2.1805507.html

and all of those bums

are phillies fans

nfierstos10 - July 15, 2010 reply

This might have something to do with it...

vooodooo - July 15, 2010 reply

Fielder

scares me when hes batting, I would hate pitching to him.

Because if you made him look bad, he’d probably eat you.

gotta becareful here

Prince can give them the lead on one swing

ya prince is good

I like “Little Red Corvette.”

Pelican……..

Purple rain for me

prince or ryan howard?

Howard

he goes oppo way better

howard

Fick

I like when he swiped at the 1st baseman on the other team. We didn’t see much of him after that.

Votto

prince must eat a shit load of spinach

or mcdonalds

Qtips - July 15, 2010 reply

I don't think it's agriculturally possible for him to be a vegan in Milwaukee

Not true.

You could live on an all-beer diet.

really?

wouldn’t you get b12 deficiency?

Multivitamin solves that dilemma.

so technically

its not an all beer diet if you have to supplement it

Blue Moon with an orange in it

Fight against scurvy

yeah but vitamin b12, when taken by baseball players

can be mistaken for steroids

sincerely,
roger clemens

Qtips - July 15, 2010 reply

So what you're saying is

When time possible, he’s filling up his calorie and carbohydrate content on beer, and then he eats a small rainforest to sober up and energy up for games?

sounds like a turrible idea

so does Prince have non leather shoes?

I can understand the no-meat policy

But no dairy. Damn that must suck

Cheese it the best food ever.

Aside from bacon.

I disagree, sir.

Bacon with some cheese melted over it is….well……words just don’t describe how wonderful it is.

can you try? My mouth is watering

Ron Swanson said it best:

Bacon-wrapped shrimp? It’s my favorite food wrapped around my third-favorite food.

(Cheese would be #2).

That used to be my sig

I still think one of the best dishes I’ve had was roasted doves,split with a jalapeno slice in the middle, then wrapped in bacon.

I could live off of cheese and crackers for the rest of my life

Dude I know

Not to mention how much of a hassle it would be to check every single thing you eat to see if it was made with a dairy product.

not true

deep fried mayo balls are the greatest food of all time

lots

of cheese

i view him more as bluto

needs bigger forearms to be popeye…..maybe uggla

he has the beard to b bluto

haha, i was thinking him too

LOL

at Braun..

Salad for dinner

yum

me too

ftw

You don’t win friends with salad.

so true

Hmm...

Just said that I am eating salad too… meh… whatever

San Francisco is the other way

Ribeye, baked sweet potato and sauteed mushrooms.

You know what I had for breakfast?

COCAINE.

You know what I ate for lunch?

COCAINE.

Don’t bullshit a bullshiter, alright?

you're standing there, and you're standing there, and I don't know which way is up!

What did I have for dinner?

No, not cocaine.

Italian sausage, broiled with red and yellow peppers, red onion, and red potatoes, with paprika, pepper, and olive oil

Damn,

now I’m hungry.

Italian Sausage

im not a fan

Yeah I kinda figured

When you said something about deep fried mayo balls

haha

thats the grosest thing ever, i think i heard it on something like Tosh.O

I'm going with leftover stir-fry or leftover grilled sausage.

Did anyone actually read the "chat" on the sidebar today with some bloggers?

What a joke.

Yeah haha

I noticed that.

The “Braves sux 4 gettin Gonzalez” stuff?

Yeh I read it last night

BenDuronio - July 15, 2010 reply

Why was that even put up? If I wanted to read stupidity, I’d log onto the AJC site.

Fernando Martinez went deep again.

BenDuronio - July 15, 2010 reply

who is he

No walks for JJ so far.

Me likey.

Richard R - July 15, 2010 reply

way to jinx him

Chicago beating Phi 5-2.

nice

and still batting

Show us some POWAH

Gonzalez

Come on stud!

Hey all

Just got back to civilization after a week in the Crater Lake and Mt Hood areas. I didn’t even know who had won the All-Star game until this morning. Wow, what a bit of news that I returned to with Escobar being traded!.

lol

kind of a bad week to be away, huh?

Escobar was not traded

you read wrong

Drink.

I’mma guess you aren’t permanently somewhere close to here?

Live in Tennessee. But the mountains out here are awesome. The trip was worth missing the All-Star game.

Yeah, they are. I need to go see them more.

Also, Oregon coast is FTW.

Oregon is great.

I love it out there.

Let me know if you're up this way.

You live out here? (Still here, fly home in the morning.) Probably coming back next year to climb Hood.

I go to grad school at UO.

I've got family out there.

And I might be moving out there at some point (depending on various things). It’s a great place. So much nicer than Georgia (aside from not having the Braves).

Coolness. I like it, but I need to be back close to NOLA once I'm done.

Kick his ass

Sea Bass?

D&D FTW

wait....

it rreally is Sea Bass… i thought that was some random thing someone had made up

He hasn't bowed to the altar of powah yet

well in TORONTO....

Just missed it.

Nice try, Unicorn.

he is probablly thinking

That was a homer in Rogers Centre what happened?

I don't think he knows if that's a HR in Rogers

since he never hit the ball to CF there. All his HRs were pulled.

haha

touche

You are on it today

Pacgnosis

Haven't been on many GTs lately.

Been saving up my mojo.

That ball was hit harder than any other Esco ball this year.

drink!!

nods

Oh well

Perfect.

I got this one. Gimme 10 min and its perfecter.. uh, more perfect

In some capacity

I’m glad that Photoshop is so readily available for people to do their own damn graphics instead of asking me.

But in some capacity, the readily available Photoshop kind of makes me weep myself to sleep some nights with the things I’ve seen here . . . :*(

haha

.

wait, you expected it to be good? I go on rotation for good and bad, and after my Emergency Catcher one I’ve gotta get some bad ones going

C'mon

Most of you guys know i do graphics for a living. No matter if “they’re supposed to be” bad, this really makes me sad.

That’t better than anything i could do, so good work GBNY

haha. at least man enough to admit it

a) I knew that you did graphics
b) I’ve had worse
c) I could easily fix this? Although it would take some time. So now I feel obliged. Give me some time

Don't sweat it

I’m just giving you shit because I know you can take it

fuck

what does that say about how much time we’ve both spent around here

At least you're not a mod

Wow.....

I’m speechless.

This wins.

I'll take the warning track shot.

BenDuronio - July 15, 2010 reply

Soriano homers. 6-2 Cubs over Phillies.

My fantasy team is waiting at home plate for him.

Alrighty Gregor

time for Melky!

melky needs to bat 2nd til

heyward gets it going

Atleast we cleared the pitcher? ha

i wonder

which of atlanta’s young pitchers will throw a no hitter first

medlen

Hanson

has best shot

he throws too many pitches

Tell that to

Edwin Jackson

he has the stuff to do it, typically power pitchers throw no hitters ask greg maddux

Well i'd rather not

Tommy throw 15 pitches

fail

150

haha

I think you lost a 0

I know

its an extreme example, but that is the type of pitcher who throws no hitters

but not power pitchers throw perfectos

Burlehe, Doc, Braden, Galara…nevermind

Doc is a power pitcher

but typical no-hitter is thrown by a power pitcher

Nolan Ryan, Ubaldo, Randy Johnson, Roger Clemens

Doc is not a power pitcher

I don’t EVER want to see Big Red out there for 150 pitches no matter what.

+1

Combined no-hitters FTW

Hell yes

Combined no-nos are awesome, because the other team always feels some hope when a new guy comes in but they shut the door just a little further

Last combined

The one in houston

Wags shut the door right?

Against the Yankees no less

Oswalt, Lidge, Dotel, someone else, and Wagner. That was super epic because it was so many pitchers, but typically I wouldn’t mind seeing a Jurrjens/Venters/Wagner combined no-no, FWIW

I doubt any

but if i had to pick one i’d pick JJ because he is more a groundball pitcher rather than Red and Meds are K pitchers

Teheran

I don’t think Tommy’s going to get one (don’t have a reason, just a feeling).

Jo-Jo Reyes

Blue Jay

thank baby jesus

i choose

to thank a larger version of said jesus

Hm...

Maybe if he walks everyone and then picks them all off. It could work.

Watch it be like KK

In a spot-start

for Huddy, in game 7 of the world series

Nuh-uh

Red is pitching game 7

Tim Collins

I read this as “Tom Collins” every time.

Greg Maddux. Oh wait.

Bush at

100 pitches

due up 4th

how is their bullpen?

BLEH

Axford is good.

The rest, mediocre.

I second that

bring on

Hoffman

Me likey the Braves girls

This.

They're nice to look at

But they’re all kind of (female dogs).

I'm a beggar.

Therefore, I’m told, I can’t be a chooser.

60-year old rocking the skirt behind home plate...

STFD, whoever you are.

Jim Edmonds

Come on JJ

strong last inning please

Please no Saito tonight!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmgJoMqBqBU&feature=player_embedded

GUYS! I found the new camera guy for our TC team!

Sit in the 400 section of Turner Field

And those camera men are looking are a lot more than that at any given time

that was hilarious

NICE

This hotel computer sucks ass!

Can’t even pull up Gameday without it freezing.

buy

a new one?

Why would you buy a computer for a hotel?

I dont

read

HOTEL...computer

Yeah, couldn’t bring my own because I would have had no where to keep it while I was backpacking.

FAIL

I do

We’ll let it slide.

This time.

Try this:
http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/gametracker/live/MLB_20100715_MIL@ATL
Another gameday that is faster.

You are a god among men!

Come on JJ…. get this out.

Craig Counsell

left handed Omar Infante

Counsell has a weird batting stance.

Not nearly as weird as it use to be.

True. I remember ’02 WS…that was crazy!

Used to be weirder

as he got older

he shortened it up

By the power of Greystroke….

Loved that movie.

Christopher Lambert…..not the best actor.

WHAT

He was Raiden in Mortal Kombat. You take that back right now, or I will make you an example of an abuse of e-power.

Oh, but he knew how to purrrrrrr.

And I think it was Greystoke.

wait what? in what way?

See that pic?

Good night JJ

bring on the pen

Moylan time

Bobby bringing the hook

GREAT job JJ

we love youuuuuu!

I always though JJ

would get more K's...oops.

Good hook here Bobby

BARNEY IS BACK!

What?

JJ

the other one

Jeff Johnson is Barney.

his voice scares the shit out of me...

just comes out of nowhere

Who does that make Baby Bop?

another great outing for JJ

keep it up my man

If you subtract the 8-run 3.1 inning and 3-run 1-inning starts, he’s tossed QS or allowed less than 1 run in his 5-inning starts. In those outings, his ERA is 2.93.

yep quality start...

and i don’t mean the stat

Amen. Would much rather have his 1-run 5-IP starts than the mediocre pitchers with 4.50 ERAs that turn in 6-IP 3-run starts.

Good Job

Moylan

Looking on Gameday

Our pitchers are getting squeezed like hell

Way to go PeMo

Good job Peter!

Now let’s get some insurance run(s) please!

JJ in line for the W

Does that count

as a appearance haha..

I think I've become a happier Braves fan

Now that Moylan is literally a clean-up guy that doesn’t really pitch more than 1-2 outs now

I think I've become a happier Braves fan

Now that Moylan is literally a clean-up guy that doesn’t really pitch more than 1-2 outs now

and is quite good at what he does

I think I've become a happier Braves fan

Now that Moylan is literally a clean-up guy that doesn’t really pitch more than 1-2 outs now

Chigurh was such a bad ass

is Sea Bass’ arm at all comparable to Esco

I think I've become a happier Braves fan

Now that Moylan is literally a clean-up guy that doesn’t really pitch more than 1-2 outs now

okay..i'm here..

finally..

SidGlaus - July 15, 2010 reply

Bout time....

:)

Anyone have

the rest of the rotation?

McLouth got a hit

and stole the 2nd then scored with a Freeman single

joshant - July 15, 2010 reply

nice

did he pull it to right field?

to Center Field

joshant - July 15, 2010 reply

Like I said, let’s trade him for Hart!

Or a Canada Dry ginger ale.

Whichever.

Wait

Does it feel like Todd Coffey plays for like three teams?

it feels even more like...

his teams are never good

lol

Bet he wishes he was still with the Reds now

I wonder if he’s related to Paul Coffey in any way?

Paul Coffey was awesome… Todd Coffey not so much

This is probably the last place I would have expected to see that name.

I try to inject hockey references whenever possible.

COME ON KID!!! Get a hit!

Time for a little lefty on lefty action. It’s kinky. I like it.

Heyward..HR this AB

SidGlaus - July 15, 2010 reply

braddock had no control when he was in huntsville.

SidGlaus - July 15, 2010 reply

but threw hard

Braddock

tough on the lefites saw him a few times in Huntsville

Wow

I’m surprised he doesn’t have more hip and leg troubles with that whipping action on his follow-through.

already had

TJ I think

see my thoughts above.

SidGlaus - July 15, 2010 reply

Heyward

tough on all pitchers whichever arm they throw with.

Except this guy so far.

Hello

Do it, Jason!

damn

or not

Rough comeback for JHey....but he'll get it going

What happened to Heyward

that makes him pull everything?

lack of funnel cakes?

hmm

perhaps

heyward hit that hard, just at someone.

Well hell. Another run or two would be nice.

Stop hitting the ball to Lastings Milledge!

I see what ya did there

i dont get it

facepalm

this is sarcastic if u were

If Lastings Milledge = Rickie Weeks, then Rickie Weeks must = Lastings Milledge.

ah makes sence

JHEY

come on man get hot again

He wont get hot

until he stops pulling everything

hw'll fix it out

Moylan still in

hart and braun

T-Rex arms did us in there …

Ugh, good try by Peter.

damn good effort

by moylan at least

Feeling nervous now

May I order up a Vidro now please?

Hold the mayo.

But extra artichoke Harts.

DP please

damn

that ball was easy strike… the fix is on

Get Wags ready Bobby

Is Wags available

maybe not

since Saito is not in

Short leash Bobby please.

Venters

will come in for Fielder and Edmonds for sure

CHRIST PETER

Ugh

strikes please

DEES NO GOOD

Order's still in play

Yep, there’s 1 – let’s get the last 2 at once.

I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

I'll take it

Glaus really should have caught that one hopper from Pete

Big first out, swinging at ball 4

If Charlie Manuel were managing

He’d have brought in Hong-Chih Kuo to take on a righty

LOL

haha

Hey everybody. Hows the game been so far?

Great. All 3 runs were solo homers.

yea. I really think Chipper is going to have a big second half

Man, I haven’t been interested in the Braves Wives since Mark Kotsay was on the team.

I would not kick Huddy’s wife out the house for undercooking the meatloaf.

Difference is

I respect Mrs. Huddy. She’s kinda off-limits, IMO

True. She’s not really eye-candy, but she is certainly not hurtful to the eyes.

medlen's

Hooray, it's Melky.

Glausosaur back in May again?

Thank you sure May I have another?

please sir, may I have some more?

MBL1 - July 15, 2010 via mobile reply

single for the GlausMan. ok.

anything

but a vidro Melky

Seriously, how many hits to RF does Glaus have this year?

Any way for us to look it up?

hitting spray chart?

Yeah, but where does one find that?

http://mlb.mlb.com/stats/individual_player_hitting_chart.jsp?c_id=atl&playerID=136267&statType=1

Aske and ye shall receive

Wow....it's actually more balanced than I figured

Thank you sir.

well gosh

it looks like he hits to all fields

Jareth Cutestory - July 15, 2010 reply

Yeah, I would’ve guessed LF would be covered.

He has 13 hits to RF this year

10 singles, 3 doubles.

You know, Heyward may be off right now but when he is on, he is ON.

MBL1 - July 15, 2010 via mobile reply

nice hit troy

Melky going deep

I can feel it

HAHAHAHA great joke Danny!

Eh, thinking physics

Braddock throws 94-96, all Melky has to do is make contact. Had the bat not been destroyed, then maybe, right?

You’ve got to adjust for the rotation of the Earth though.

So explain what happens to Mother Gaia

Whenever Andruw Jones struck out and corkscrewed himself two feet deep?

or maybe it was that tingly thing again. I’m concerned. really.

been having any twitches?

Only at work.

goodness me, could it be industrial disease

maybe asbestos

blurred vision?

Hooray

it’s Melken-hausen

why no diaz?

Dave Bush is a righty.

not the dude just pitching

Melky’s line against RHP: .272/.329/.387
Diaz’s line against RHP: .260/.327/.376

stats shmats. i like diaz

I meant .270 for Diaz and I would Diaz starting over Melky

would want

Tha man pitching was a lefty.

well atleast it wasn't a dp

whodat? - July 15, 2010 reply

Rainbow unicorns? Attacking?

Don't worry

Rainbow Llamasaurus will take care of them.

why is his nickname “Unicorn”?

MBL1 - July 15, 2010 via mobile reply

because he is a mythological being

that craps rainbows

ohhh, thanks. That makes sense :P

MBL1 - July 15, 2010 via mobile reply

Because earlier I likened the chances of him being productive to a magic world of Unicorns and rainbows, and he walked and then hit a double.

COME ON GONZO!

*sea bass

I don’t really like that one

Yeah

That’s really lame

no one does.

thats what makes it perfect

ooooh

big swing there.

Sea Bass

likes to swing for the fences

that's what they teach north of the border

So does Heyward.

yeah

and he has struggled mightily

They will be ok.

He has neither

“swung for the fences” nor “struggled mightily” (using his overall #s of course)

Better than

swinging for the grass five feet in front of the plate.

i wanna see a DINGER

1 more would have been nice. I believe it would still be a save situation and a bit more insurance for us.

A wise man once told me

“A little insurance wouldn’t hurt.”

Was it an insurance salesman?

Gosh I still miss him too.

Yes, we do

Amen.

Wagner Time!

Looking at Billy Wagner who is only 3 years older than I, and I see just how little I’ve accomplished in life.

Velocity sounds like it’s back to normal. A few days off will help in that dept.

Good lord...that's dirty.

Heyward/Heyward

Bravely going forward - July 15, 2010 reply

this guy's good

If this were 2006

Chris Reitsma would have walked the first two guys, Macay McBride would have walked the lefty, Chad Paronto would be brought into to get the ground ball, give up a bases clearing double, Mike Remlinger would be brought into to clean up the mess, but not after he cleans the bases of Paronto’s mess before getting the job done and John Smoltz would be discreetly taking a razor blade to his thigh, telling himself that he needs to release the pain, and the Braves would have lost by four runs after the 9th inning.
