Hey oc
You got kicked off the Angels board, so I figured I should come here and give you your props. You guys are over .500 again. Congrats.
~Till the Halo burns out...
zero
as in 0 BBs by the Rangers pitchers tonight and 0 Ks by the Ranger batters. When was the last time that happened?

Finally over .500
Ponson for governer (of Aruba)!
...and curse Sir Walter Raleigh, he was such a stupid git.
and there goes the lead
2-2 with a runner on 2nd and no outs.
vladdy: actually taking a downturn for real, or just a slow start?
hopefully he pops up here….
Gerald Laird is my hero.
Damn Halos just tied it up at 2-2

Hey, somebody try to hit the “reply” linkie, K?
Damnstreamofconsciousnessbastards…..............

...it's the weekend, so why the hell not?
Brawl in Clinton!!
Beltre scored the go-ahead run then Osuna tried to score behind him when the ball got away but got thrown out. Shoving ensued – punches thrown – bats flying thru the air – Matt Lawson is DOWN!! It’s a free-for-all!
Sorry
Thought you wanted Audio – not sure that link works anyway.
Umps and coaches still confabbing on who’s gone. Players still in the dugout. Beltre, Lawson, Alfonso and Osuna are no longer in the ballgame. Clinton is up a run needing just three outs in the top of the 9th to win. I think Nelo will pitch. Iowa is in total chaos.
Osuna's run counts afterall - obstruction ruled
Clinton still batting – 2 outs bottom of the 8th, score 8-6 Clinton. Tim Smith will be up.
Gac had the big 2-out hit with the bases loaded that resulted in 3 runs after the dust settled. Beltre is 4-5 on the night.
Sweet play by play on the brawl Shroom

Who the hell
would actually go to this thing?
3 rounds of 5 minutes of dumb fights.
Now if I were fighting, that is a different story.

Of course, miles.
I’d put money on you against anyone. Except, of course, Josh Hamilton.

I might challenge
Elvis Andrus to a fight…
When is is fully healthy again ofcourse.

i think boxing gets boring when they get tired
but at least they are on their feet moving around.
when this gets reduced to grappling for 4 minutes a round… ugh.
i hope this kimbo slice guy loses, ive heard his name way too many times.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
the guys deformed ear explodes and they call the fight
even though he was winning.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
Yeah...
Kimbo sucks nuts..
The only reason he used to be good was when he got tired, his homeboys came in and took over for him..
Like 6 on 1…
Kimbo has no athletisism.
"No bear or disco for Juan" - Mr. Santos
Its on
right now…
It just got stopped because Kimbo like punched his ear off.

Stuff that comes on back east as "live" often is tape-delayed here
That’s why Saturday Night Live isn’t live here… otherwise it would come on at 8:30.
I love to use that tape delay to fuck with people
“I know who won American Idol” :D (since people start posting reactions and stuff right after it airs on the East Coast when the show hasn’t even started yet here)
only because of whatever ridiculous thing is growing on his ear
that popped. he wasnt about to get knocked out or anything.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
Dude...
Twenty more seconds, and that dude would have been out cold. Mark it.
"Boy, that is a gutless, 6-foot-7, .200-hitting formerly good player. What a joke." -Tom Grieve RE: Richie Sexson
Not really.
It was an awful stoppage. As for the ear, JT’s ear was massively cauliflowered to begin with. All he did was pop it, not that difficult. If you’ve never seen a popped cauliflower ear, it’s exactly that nasty.
As a massive MMA fan, I went into the event fearing the worst. This is the wrong company and the wrong card to present on national TV.
Kimbo Slice
Just knocked a man’s ear off. Holy ballsack.
"Boy, that is a gutless, 6-foot-7, .200-hitting formerly good player. What a joke." -Tom Grieve RE: Richie Sexson
It's cause he's black, right miles?

Messin' with you, man.

Kimbo went to the University of Miami
on an academic scholarship. Might not be a genius, but he’s not as dumb as some.
wrong
He was going to go to Miami on a football scholarship until Hurricane Andrew wiped out South Florida and thus wiped out his senior season of football.
Academic scholarship
Apparently he attended the school on an academic scholarship despite the fact that his football ambitions were spoiled in HS.
Supposedly he attended Miami for a year and a half.
Drunk rednecks
should not call the post-game show.
For Realz!
...it's the weekend, so why the hell not?
I think that went down to OKC...
with Duran.
I believe he was asking people to smell his foam finger in the dugout. Just sick and wrong really.

How was the Beach Boys theme?
Did it add anything?
"Boy, that is a gutless, 6-foot-7, .200-hitting formerly good player. What a joke." -Tom Grieve RE: Richie Sexson
miles, go dig a very deep hole
and stick your head inside…the Beach Boys are everything that is right with this country. I may prefer the RHCP or Bob Schneider, but saying something bad about the Beach Boys…well that’s just plain communism!!!

you are just lucky i intervened
with a timely rally turtle to get 3 runs without an out.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
bad brad grounds out "softly" per gameday
the mighty eckstein will clearly hit a HR
Gerald Laird is my hero.
So awesome
We need an LAA loss to make it even better. 11 Game Homestand. we are 2-0. I said we needed to go at the worst 7-4. So good so far.
Scott Shields pitching...
...the always-overated Brandon Wood subbing in at 3rd…
...and Brad Wilkerson leads it off with a ground out.
Is it just me...
...or is it fun that other team’s games matter?
I know it’s early, but damnit, it’s nice to be in contention.
"Boy, that is a gutless, 6-foot-7, .200-hitting formerly good player. What a joke." -Tom Grieve RE: Richie Sexson
that was lame
bunt and the pitcher threw it away so everyone advances, now they walk the next guy.
sigh.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
Marcum
pitched out of trouble. I was flipping back and forth between the Rangers game and LAAAA, Marcum gave up quiet a few hits but got out of it.
He has really
nasty stuff but was surprised that he doesn’t throw very fast. I would still love to have him though.
it could be tainted forever by non-ranger use
though i guess it is pro-rangers….
lets see. please work.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
Poop.

Cat...
is now hitting .299 and will get most of the AB’s at 1B in the next month I would assume.
I think he still has some value for a team that could use a LH bat that can play a little LF/1B.
"The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance."-Socrates
Just got back from the game...
Sir Sidney looked like he pitched a lot better than his line tonite.
Hamilton’s HR wasn’t very deep, but that’s because it hit the International Space Station, which altered it’s trajectory.
Boggs and Hamilton laugh a lot in the OF.
I enjoy being excited about Rangers baseball in May instead of merely interested...
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
If we
were in the NL, we would get to the world series every year….
"No bear or disco for Juan" - Mr. Santos
True dat...
Watching NL games is like overdosing on sleeping pills.
"No bear or disco for Juan" - Mr. Santos
That statement
is a year out of date I think.
