Around SBN: Jays Stun Rays With Walkoff Granny Bar-right-arrows



Excellent job by ESPN

Just saw the highlights on ESPNews.

 

According to Bill Assclown Pidto, I believe, Gabbard hit Richie Sexson.

Then, they showed the replay with tracker, and he just threw out a whole bunch of non-sensical mumbo-jumbo... "...who....what....eh...".

Then he says, 'obviously retaliation for what happened earlier...'

Retards. They should at least TRY to make an effort. Totally and completely embarrassing coverage.

Oh...and the Mariners postgame show is pretty bad as well.

On SportsCenter

One of the anchors says the pitch wasn’t inside, and the other said that if it had been lower it would have been a strike.

So, there’s that, at least.

According to Jeff...

Adam harbors deep down resentment toward us all because everyone except about 2 or 3 of us are complete idiots in Jeff’s opinion.

Most of us

are just org. soldiers.

Remember that Lookout Landing poster

who curses out women who ask them to keep it down at games?

I don’t think anyone over there should be criticizing anyone…

BBTN admits it was nowhere near Sexson...

but have been saying “Hopefully it reignites this club” and whatnot. No talk of “Sexson: How many games?”

by cmkelly29 on May 9, 2008 1:07 AM CDT   0 recs

My guess...

10 games for Sexon

I think he deserves 10...

BUT, he’ll probably get 5-7.

by TexasTiger on May 9, 2008 7:25 AM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Probably 1-3

Is my guess. Two outs, guy up after two Rangers have been hit, it sure could be interpreted as retaliation that Gabbard just didn’t execute well…

The fact that Sexson

charged on that pitch tells you everything you need to know about why he’s been hitting so poorly the last few years. Dude needs Lasik.

Espn.com as well

Latest power rankings are out and the Rangers have escalated to 23. But this is what it says about them:

“The Rangers have the AL’s second-worst ERA (4.80), yet they gave up only one earned run in their three-game sweep of Seattle.”

by chrisR on May 9, 2008 1:31 PM CDT   0 recs

Wasn't game 1 an exhibition?

The Rangers sure played like it was.

Right around the time all the young talent is ready to contend is when the organization will realize that Ron Washington is the wrong man for the job.

by Chad Crudup on May 9, 2008 2:30 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Shut up! I prefer thinking of it as a three-game sweep!

Don’t be like the kid in fifth grade that reminds the teacher she forgot to assign homework.
