Open Game Thread - Game 99: A's @ Rays (cont)
It's 4-0. The A's have six outs to work with against someone not named Kazmir. Will it matter? Not likely, I'm afraid.
Top of the eighth we go. I applaud ANers still here.

Thank God we're not facing someone
named Strikthree.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
Kazmir means Strikthree in Turkish

9 runs scored in our last win.
9 runs scored in the soon to be 6 losses since.

Frist, what an asshole.
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
Not sure,
but, generally speaking, the worst politicians (like journalists, academics, etc) are LIFETIME politicians who’ve never earned an honest living.
I don’t know Frist very well, but I know he’s not a lifetime poly.
Just to clarify
My comment actually had nothing to do with Bill Frist, and was merely a play on words on the common AN refrain “Christ, what an asshole.”
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
Nah.
His Terri Schaivo “diagnosis” pretty much solidified his asshole cred.
I know, no politics. Blah blah blah.

I'm not answering that.

does Uncle Lew watch the games?
I know Billy has a problem with that, but isn’t the word that Lew likes to watch? Surely somebody has to notice how not entertaining this team is right now. Go get Dallas McPherson. Go get Val Pascucci. Go get every AAAA Custian slugger that can be imagined. I’d so rather watch a beerleague team than this crap.

Oh yeah, right here in my back pocket.
Actually I have no idea how heroin is stored, so that may make no sense.
I think it comes in baggies like they have at the Metrodome.

I’m guessing he could shut down the A’s right now. Can’t really imagine paying money to watch this club right now.
I think my softball team could beat them.

At least the post game writeups should be pretty easy in the future
just make a cookie cutter one that says something about decent pitching and no runs on 6 or less hits.
