Damn
I have a feeling I will still have a headache Sunday morning from that noise. As much as I don’t like the rays, I do love Longoria’s walk up song. Have to admit it’s the ringer on my phone.
Well, we worked the pitcher.
Dammit.
Yes, fc, we did do that much.
As much as I enjoy the tbs hot corner view, they tend to zoom in on tito a lot, please zoom in on someone hot.
When I tried out the Hot Corner view a few days ago, it was boring — just from one spot and yeah, it was always Tito. Couldn’t really see much of anyone else.
Throw strikes Dice
-whimpers-
Daisuke Matsuzaka, THROW STRIKES.
Why am I so pessimistic about tonight’s game?
C’mon, Daisuke. Execute the pitches and throw strikes!
C’mon, Dice!
A double play would be nice right now.
thank you
That also works!
Dice-K!
I was wondering if I needed a drink for this game, I’m beginning to think so.
Did someone forget to tell Dice we’re in the postseason?
walking the bases loaded is not a good way to start
Dammit Dice-K! GET THE OUT.
DICE.
STRIKES.
PLZTHX.
He always makes me nervous.
OH THANK GOD
Do I even want to know his pitch count?
::breathing again:: really no need to make it interesting this early Dice…thanks
My blood pressure doesn’t need this, Dice.
Mary I guess not.
Thank God thats over.
THANK YOU.
DON’T EVER DO THAT AGAIN, DAISUKE.
My heart cannot take a whole game like this.
Strangely, I stayed pretty chill through all that.
Could I actually have faith in our Houdini?
Maybe he was just trying to get his walks out of the way early, so the rest of the 4 innings are smooth sailing?
Cathy – I hope so.
I’m so excited about going tomorrow night, that I am so far from calm.
any more innings like the first and I won’t have fingernails left.
Damn the fucking cowbells to hell!
Really how many of these people went to any games during the regular season?
I should add that I know there are some real fans of the Rays.
I went in April, and June and bought my tickets last minute, not many people there. It wasn’t until September that they all showed up.
Dice-KK
Dice-KK!
Erin, probably 4 of them.
“They have athletes all over the place!”
Are you serious? Cause, like, I had no idea this was a sport.
Liza, my thought was, “really, baseball players are athletes, ya don’t say”
One of my friends is a Mets fan, but I caught him the other day wearing a Rays hat.
I wanted to smack him.
Liza – Seriously? Did one of the TBS announcers actually say that?
Mac – They were talking about how Gross used to be a QB and how so many other Rays were multisport athletes in high school and college. Then they said that.
Liza- That comment makes my head hurt.
more 1-2-3 innings ok Dice
Most of the rays fans around me the last time I went, had no clue about baseball. They couldn’t figure out what made a ball an out, and how to figure out if a ball was foul. It was really sad.
Wow, Liza, I know I’m spacy tonight, but I didn’t even catch that. How ridiculous…
Dice needs to try out that get-rid-of-first-inning-jitters warmup Buch used earlier in the year.
Liza – Thanks.
