PrintWhy would any man need a wife if he had AN? Right here, I can interact with a bunch of boobs, constantly be told I'm wrong, and be blamed for things that I don't even remember I said three years ago. So may 2009 bring more of what makes AN great, such as:
* "Patterson, Pennington, Casilla, Bowen, and Hannahan for Yunel Escobar - I know, five players is a lot to give up but Escobar is pretty good."
* "o no here we go again. your not allowed to say anything bad about beene on this site even though he made the kelty trade and how did that work out?"
* "How can you not want Garret Anderson to DH - the guy doesn't strickout nearly as much as Cust!!!!111"
* "You're wrong!"
"No, you're wrong!"
"I feel sorry for you for how wrong you are!"
"Your wrongness is so blasphemously and blatantly absurd that it brings wrongness
to a whole other stratosphere of wrongness!"
"Not true, PT."
"Yes it is, grover."
Thanks to my second-most dysfunctional family for keeping me off the streets and in my underwear, and here's to more lively banter in 2009!

for all of our bitching and moaning, all of our righting and wronging, it’s nice to know that at least we’re all here supporting our favorite team.
Happy New Year everyone. I look forward to the 2009 season and a full year of our banter…
I haven't gotten into an argument with PT in a long time
but I don’t remember our discussions ever being that cordial or brief.
Hey, Nico. Remember the comment I made to you that earned me a strike way back when? I’m thinking it right now.
The monster at the end of this blog.
um, since it was long ago and you've probably not
garnered anymore “stricks” against ye since then, could you share?
pleasepleaseplease?

Let me put you in the mood: The A’s should only have offered Furcal 4/32!!!!!111
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
I should have figured you wouldn't remember
It was a notable moment for me because I earned a strike, for you, it was advise to do an activity that you probably do any time you don’t have a sheep handy.

I had one in 1993

No, that was '92.
Though, upon retrospect, she was almost certainly born in ’93…how astute of you, grover.

AHHHHH.
mlb.com is broadcasting the A’s-Angels game that ended with MaEl’s grand slam RIGHT NOW. It’s the top of the 5th, and Rich is pitching. To Garret Anderson. Go watch it!
WHAT?!?!!??!!?!
NOT FAIR!! I dont’ get that channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! @#$&*^. grr. anybody happen to be filming this and willing to post it somewhere where I can watch? I didn’t actually get to see the game when it happened. :(
Awww… Unicorn's optimistic. And a cheeseball. That’s cute. ~Whiteshoes40
We totally need a game thread.
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
F'ing Crosby just grounded out to third.
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
Sloppy defense! Bad pitching!
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
Kind of shocking how late he was on those fastballs...
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
strickeout to Zook.
but yay to a sort of game thread!!! kinda…

And mon petit Gregorio in at short
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
Which, the liner, or the grounder?
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
But then he'd have an ENORMOUS strike zone!

since this game goes to the 12th
shouldn’t we just open up a new thread instead of endless replies? it’s going to get REALLY tiny after a while. or start a new reply chain, or something.
and big strike zone equals….

Happy New Year everyone!
Hopefully 2009 will be a lot better than 2008. And Nico, you have one excellent marriage with AN. Or at least you know the rules.
by Tyler Bleszinski on Jan 1, 2009 1:57 PM PST reply actions
The first rule of AN?

The first rule is drink until you pass out
Rules 2-99 now become largely irrelevant.

I have really missed game threads.

What effectively nasty defense by Petit there…
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
In the time it took me to type that, he managed to get himself out.
And I’m a pretty fast typer (typist?).
typer person.
more fun to say. but at least we don’t have to suffer through seeing DFA next year!!
Awww… Unicorn's optimistic. And a cheeseball. That’s cute. ~Whiteshoes40
Unless we sign DFA II...
Garret Anderson!!!!!!!111
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
would he really be THAT bad???
Awww… Unicorn's optimistic. And a cheeseball. That’s cute. ~Whiteshoes40
No, he'd be a better version
but strikingly similar in pros/cons.
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
Yeah, it happened so fast I can't even remember the AB...
Maybe if this scales, I can forget all of his at bats before next season starts!
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
You might want to remember the walk
The walk was cool.
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
That's why I said at bats instead of plate appearances.
I want to remember the walk, and every time he was hit by a pitch.
"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
They should replay the stock market from that day as well.

Ziggy's out.
he didn’t. didn’t take very long, either.

"God doesn't pay attention to your cute little hypotheticals." -- Jeff from LL
as always.
Ziggy rules the double plays.
Awww… Unicorn's optimistic. And a cheeseball. That’s cute. ~Whiteshoes40
You know what would be too cool for words?
If Ziggy posted in a game thread where he was pitching.
C’mon, Ziggy – do it!

The Ump was
just bragging on penis size, I think.

Although the walk and HBPs put him on base,
and that rarely lead to anything good.

A’s win, walkoff, unicorn power, Petit at short and a game thread!

BEST start of the year. Ever.

Awww… Unicorn's optimistic. And a cheeseball. That’s cute. ~Whiteshoes40
It would be nice to follow the kind of season...
…where us, the members of AN, could actually test the woofing gods.
This was an AWESOME
start of the year game thread. WOOT!
Awww… Unicorn's optimistic. And a cheeseball. That’s cute. ~Whiteshoes40
Thanks Nico
My other dysfunctional family kept me from writing today. I understand if I’ve been fired.
I'm here to talk about the past.
Actually, you've been promoted
We didn’t expect quality at the level of blank space.

Happy New Year everyone
it’s posts like this that make me glad I found this site :)
2009
I haven’t been this down on the A’s in a long time. But just for this season. 2010 looks brighter.
I’d be happy if Eric Chavez was healthy all season. Travis Buck was healthy. Aaron Cunningham had a 2008 Nate McCoulth type season. Is that too much to ask?
I can't even start to tell you how much of a cocktease watching this game was
I just want the season to start!!!!
