HAHAHA

At least dude’s clothed – but the porn ‘stache implies ’party time’!

how scary would it have been if he rocked the 'stache in the other photo?
Boogie Nights

indeed

Hairstyle brought to you by Brillo.
Now that's a handsome man!
I think he was awarded the Cy Young

based on the strength of that photo

Only slightly better

than Malicedoom’s

Let's reduce the magic number
Let's reduce the amount of man pictures...
I can always counter with more lady pictures :)
or just replace them w/ ones of geo
+1
you must have been besides yourself last night

Have you had time to google articles from last night yet? I havent

I get news

alerts with on him. Haven’t gotten any yet but probably by tonight I will.

I didnt set up google alerts b/c too many repeats

what did you use as keywords?

Just his name
really? I'll do that again later.
I do google

and Yahoo alerts. They don’t always have the same articles.

turn Rami loose!
that comment in the other thread

re: Riot = Bucky Dent, and that’s why Lou likes him, actually makes a lot of sense. Lou and Bucky were buddies back in the other pinstripes.

I don't recall Bucky being such an adventure on the basepaths.
no, but there are some other similarities.
He wasn't...

…and he actually didn’t have very good speed but the dude was mr. dependable at SS. Theriot is actually a much better hitter than Dent, but Dent was probably a little better in the field.

Yeah, as I recall, Dent had trouble staying above the Mendoza line.
Does this mean

we have to call Theriot, “Ryan F-ing Theriot”?

no,

only cardinal fans have to say that…

just joined in... man this game is flying by...
I WANT SOME FILTHY SLIDERS!
isn't that

what you go to white castle for?

my kingdom

for some white castle

OT- Kotsay

part of Red Sox Nation

Insert obligatory "YANKEES SUCK" post here
Heard that was coming

Now he can check out what the Red Sox DL looks like

to replace injured jd drew
that cancels each other out, doesn't it?
Dang

1. Atlanta is dismantled for the first time in my memory.
2. Goes to show how smart Hendry was by not trading for Crisp.

How did the Yanks not claim him??
Six out to total win
Warm it up Kris...

I’m about to….

Cant believe they are playing Kris Kross

MARMOL!

WHITE CASTLE!

OK, let's DO THIS THING!

It’s 106 miles to Chicago, we’ve got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark and we’re wearing sunglasses.

HIT IT.

not exactly

the same guys, Mr. Pink.

is marquis still in?
White Castle to the rescue
nope marmol is in
it appears

my question has been sufficiently answered by many people. quickly. WHITE CASTLE.

nope marmol

walk mientkievicz

GREAT way to start the inning.

SHIT

I just spit up a little onion thingy!
dont mess with success
Morgan pops out, 1 down
boy

the Pirates just cannot bunt.

Juan Pierre laughs at Morgan's feeble bunt attempt
He's got nothing better to do on the Dodgers' bench
Ouch, that one hurted!
Dear Pirates

Thank you for sucking

Another bunt pop-out
Marmol looks like that squirell with the quic head jerk...

any one have that pot?

don't bogart that pot, my friend
I just bogarted some nachos
sry, can't find the gif

o rly?

"Go, you crazy sonovabitch!"
How

many in a row have the brewers taken from the cards.

It seems to me that they swept a four gamer not too long ago. If they could just win this one tonight….

…oh the possibilities (like SWL’s jersey # being 24 tomorrow)

wasn't it only a 2 game series?
is kerry available today?
Marmol is just filthy.
Just the way we like him.
Well that inning worked out good
white castle anyone?
I just got diarreah...
nice and nasty

the way we like our Marmol

WOW is right. Damn.
that was great pitch calling

by Henry. as well as execution by Carlos.

15 minutes to a big meeting

please hurry up!!!!!

well, the cubs are into the pirates' bullpen now

so no guarantees on that…

they shipped out hansen

was it for trashing the gatorade thingy?

i think it had more to do with not being good.
spoiled marmolade
"What's the best thing for Pirate toast?"

“Marrrmolade!”

Like they say on BBTN...that's not just filthy...

…that’s nasty.

What a bouceback from the leadoff walk.

wow

never thought marquis would have went 7 innings, much less 7 scoreless innings.

Hes pitched a 9 inning shutout in Pittsburgh before
oh, right

that’s the team he can actually beat, haha

Whos this buffoon??
check out his pic on gameday!
Nice pic. Did he just leave the bar?
funny stuff

chavez

reminds me of this guy a little

"Sure could use some cupcakes or peanut buttercups right about now!!"
Jesse Chavez

Drafted: Selected by Chicago Cubs in 39th Round (1158th overall) of 2001 amateur entry draft (June-Reg) … Selected by Texas Rangers in 42nd Round (1252nd overall) of 2002 amateur entry draft (June-Reg)

2008, AAA: 3.68 ERA, 1.07, 57 SO, 17 BB

That doesn't explain the picture, though...
well, this was his third year in indianapolis

and Jesse was bored. So he started smoking pot and eating cupcakes. pretty simple really.

Major League Debut Pitcher

Light em up!!!

"Heat 'em up!"

“Smokin’!”

Hopefully we give his guy a nice welcome to the major leagues
LOL big time on the guy's photo
peanut butter dome time!!
Swingin' at the first pitch - grrrrrrrrr...
well that was quick
TWSS
4.5/5
Not a 5?
5 is only saved for the most legendary.
exactly

no premature TWSS

Fair enough!!!
dero's got a plane to catch...
29 times....

….in 65 appearances this year Marmol has K’ed 2 or more batters when he comes into a game. That is pretty amazing.

Anyone know what the record might be for batters faced/K for a reliever?

I tell my son when we watch a game

It’s not an official Marmol inning unless someone strikes out

"i'm not sure, but I bet it is pretty stiff"
obvious TWSS
2.5/5

for stating the obviousness

poor little guy, probably kept up with you for over a mile

i’m going to go back and remove the rest of the carcas

"i'm so excited...........and i just can't hide it"
i'm so excited . . . i'm so excited . . . . i'm so ---- scared!
i think you are all effed in the head

we are 10 hours from the effing funpark and you wanna bail out now! we’re not on a vacation anymore, but its a quest! i’m gonna have fun and your gonna have fun. we are going to have so much effing fun that they will have to remove our god damn smiles from our faces! we’ll be whistling zipa-di-do-da from your assholes! i’m crazy i am on a pilgramage to see a moose, PRAISE MARTY MOOSE!

Sorry folks, parks closed. Moose out front should have told you.

what about the world's largest ball of twine?
I go to lunch and it all falls into place.
you should eat lunch more often
On to the NINTH!

IN KERRY WE TRUST!

to the bottom of the ninth!
well, the kid can throw.

let’s close this out!

1-2-3 then home to beat some Lady Horses
note to pirates

use that pitcher against milwaukee

Come on Wood don't let us down now!
TWSS
denied b/c to obvious

Judges?

No way!!! LOL
I was overruled

by other judges

i still score 'em

but i dock them if it’s posted as “obvious TWSS”

4.5/5

i’d give it a 5 if it wasn’t totally set up for you ;)

PNC stadium is playing "We will rock you"

Pretty lame.

We will, we will, sweep you

Better than "Fat Bottomed Girls", I guess
at least

they make the rockin’ world go round…

WOW..202 BA from both sides for Kerry...thats consistent
i hate away games.... no go cubs go on the radio
Quite nervous about this 9th inning...
Kid K Motherf@#$%^
i'm a lead farmer!
2 more till I post my FAVORITE picture!
High cheese baby!
i love curveballs thrown for strikes
Your name makes me hungry...
I've got wood!

er, we…. we have wood!

Pat Hughes loves calling the "high, hard one."

Not going for a TWSS…Just think it’s hilarious…

5/5

even though you’re not going for it

2K

MURRAY TIME!!

Oh boy

Good save Theriot!

CUBS WIN!

Where the hell is Milton?
Get ur brooms!!

to use the facilities before my meeting!!!! KERRY WOOD IS DOMINANT!

Now I can go and enjoy my lunch
I stand corrected ( happily )

ONE RUN was enough!

wow

that went quickly

NSFW!

Yahtzee!

It showed up

While using filtering on google images. That was my guide.

What the HELL is going on here
I don't see it at all

must be blocked by my firewall.

some woman on flickr keeps

posting sexy pictures with a W flag on her flickr account.

this was a pre-pregnancy shot.

Marquis player o the game!
Way to go!

Marquis and the bullpen certainly showed up today.

Good Jason Marquis today
but he didn't pitch a complete game.

DFA!

That was a fast game

Not like last night

enjoy that meeting, drew.
Assuming that's a Cubs Win sign...

not some odd childrens gang?

CUBS WIN!!

Recap discussion here until I can get a complete recap up in a couple hours.

Milton's continuing journey thru rock history...

Pirates left ‘Trampled Under Foot’"

classic!
oh wow, took me a while

to actually see what was going on in this one :D

there you are, milton!
by the way

that’s apparently an AP photograph. Found it here:

http://sportsmaven.wordpress.com/2007/09/29/chicago-cubs-are-2007-nl-central-division-champions/

i'm sure SOMEONE has

one with just him and a transparent background

:-)

yay!!

When is the last time we were 33 games over .500?
There's my guy! Don't you just love him?
CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN

That cat has a strange accent.
JASON MARQUIS

THE BEST #5 STARTER IN BASEBALL

didn't get DFA'd once today
yes he did

he didn’t pitch a complete game

Dude get's DFA'ed on his off days
yesss

Ouch. Juuuuust beat ya to it.
Love them Baby Ursine!
Love the sweep!!!!

Bring on those Phillies!!!

2008 Chicago Cubs

didn’t just claim the Pirate’s gold. They found it, forced the Bucs themselves to dig it up, and mated with their women.

That was a blast, everyone - Thanks! CUBS WIN!!!
Different heroes every game

Today—Marquis pitched a gem, and Cedeno and Blanco with the sac RBIs

don't forget RJ

his small ball started it all

And Marmol and Woody closed the door and locked it
yeah, when they don't score any runs, we have a good chance of winning!
Nice to keep the pressure on Wrigley North

Parra @ Wainwright. I bet the Cards take that game.

got some really low numbers

on my excel nlcentral spreadsheet

Back to work...thanks for the banter, everyone!
Cubs Win!

I got Dave Stapleton on my random baseball-reference page…he had a -11 OPS+ his last season…epic fail.
