Frisco Chokers stomped again by Atlanta 4-2

[inthebrain]

I'm waiting for one of the twins to remind me how shitty the NL East is again.

[JonLP24]

1. Saw that

In fact I was following play-by-play online. That makes the Rockies 1.5 games ahead of SF.

[inthebrain]

3. I was actually rooting for Frisco in this series

I hate Atlanta with a passion. I want that place to be a place of suffering for Larry for the rest of his career.

(Dont tell the twins)

[madinmaryland]

5. Gee. I gotta remember that one, upton!!

:rofl:

[madinmaryland]

2. BWAHAHAHA!

:rofl:

The Frisco Kids are AWFULLY quiet tonight!

[inthebrain]

6. Pansey went 0-4 with a K

[JonLP24]

7. Don't forget Lincecum started and gave up a run in the 1st

as well as the remaining 3 runs later in the game. Lincecum now has a loss added to his W-L.

[cboy4]

8. The poor guy is probably all rattled still from all of the errors the Mets

players made on the field in the first inning of the All-Star Game.

[KamaAina]

24. Pujols plays for the Mets?

Who knew? :shrug:

[cboy4]

28. I know. I overstated on purpose to place more of the blame on the

NY Chokers.

[inthebrain]

10. Oh, he was nervous

Just like in the ASG.

Therefor it's acceptable.

Remember, the Twins were saying how lousy the NL East is right up until this series. The Frisco Chokers just pole vaulted the Braves into the post season race.

[cboy4]

12. You guys can't even beat the worst team in Major League Baseball and

you're bashing my team?

:spray:
:spray:

[inthebrain]

16. I got no problem admitting that my team is sucking ass

mainly cause they are banged up.

I can bash your team all day.

The Mets took 3-4 from those Chokers in their own ballpark. You're now dropping at least 3-4 from Atlanta. AND YOU TEAM IS COMPLETELY HEALTHY!!!!

You've now dropped 6-7 to San Diego, Pittsburgh and Atlanta.

I also recall you talking shit how the NL East was the worst in baseball.

LOSER!!!!

[cboy4]

17. No, you're not allowed to talk shit about another team unless your team

is better.

Those are the unwritten sports rules that everyone knows.

And the Giants are better than the Chokers at this point.

And the Giants of course aren't COMPLETELY HEALTHY!!11!

Umm, Randy Johnson????

[JonLP24]

19. In that case you're not allowed to talk shit about the Rockies

:P

[cboy4]

22. How do I talk shit about the Rockies? I just say that nobody cares about

them!

[JonLP24]

25. I'm not saying that you do or don't

I'm just saying by your line of reasoning you can't talk shit about the Rockies.. well because they have a better record but that could all change. :hi:

[inthebrain]

27. He does talk shit about the Rockies

A TON of shit about the Rockies.

This series coming this weekend is gonna be really funny as I bet the Rockies kick their ass.

[cboy4]

31. Yes, yes. And I'm sure the Astros are just shakin in their boots as the

Chokers head to Houston for the weekend.

[inthebrain]

33. Nope, the Chokers are heading to Colorado

to get more of their shit served to them on a platter.

19-30 on the road.

The Frisco Chokers are contenders!!!

They lead the Wild Card!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

[cboy4]

34. Oh my lord, is that going to be a massacre at the Orange Juice Stadium

The Chokers could be 10 games under .500 by the start of the next work week.

What a disaster

[inthebrain]

39. I want to read you post again "The Frisco Giants are contenders!!!!"

Can't do it?

Can ya?

HAHAHAHHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!


After all the shit you've talked this summer I love watching you squirm.

[cboy4]

40. So the Astros just swept the Cardinals.

Oh Jesus is that going to be an ass-kicking in Texas this weekend.

The Chokers might as well just mail in the losses and head back to Queens.

[madinmaryland]

42. When are the Forty-whiners coming to Jerry Jones Stadium.

That's when we will see a serious ass-kicking by a Texas team.

[cboy4]

41. No, there's no question they're playing better baseball than my team right now.

There's no argument about that.

[Upton]

13. Tim didn't pitch that bad

he struck out 9 in 5 innings...but a 3 run HR just killed him.

Like Giants announcer Duane Kuiper said after the game..Lincecum's been picking up the offense all year, it's about time they picked him up.

[JonLP24]

14. I wont lie

I was following on play-by-play by ESPN. He did strike out the first two batters swinging then gave up that single by Chipper Jones and the subsequent stolen base in which he was the scoring runner. Overall he did well striking out batters but that homer did kill the Giants.

[inthebrain]

15. Isn't that the same Frico Chokers announcer that had no clue Tom Seaver pitched for the Mets

Not to mention Nolan Ryan and Doc Gooden?

[Upton]

18. You're probably imagining things

Kuiper played 2B for the Indians and Giants for about a decade up until 1985. All 3 of those players you mentioned were in the majors during at least part of that time. I'll put Kuiper's baseball knowledge up against anything the Mets have to offer...BTW, Ron Darling sure has put on weight.

[cboy4]

20. Oh dear.

The mirror image of the Chokers franchise.

[inthebrain]

23. Two guys with more World Series Rings than the entire Frisco Chokers Franchise

See that shiny thing on Keith's finger?

I know you've never seen one.

[cboy4]

26. No, I didn't see it. I was focused on the donut in fat Ron's mouth.

They must have used special concrete to reinforce the Citi Field press box for the Chokers broadcast team.

At least the snacks don't go to waste.

[inthebrain]

29. That's what happens when you win a few

No one cares how fat you are.

This being foreign territory (World series Rings and all) to Frisco Choker fans you get a pass.

[madinmaryland]

45. ALERTING. Not a sports related comment!

:rofl:

[inthebrain]

46. Speaking of "fat"

Post-Game Recap: Giants Lose, Water is Wet





Wait, wait. Hold on, blue. The pitcher put some sort of spinny motion on that ball by gripping the ball differently and/or snapping his wrist. I'm pretty sure that's against the rules. Check his mitt.




Oh, and that's a real quote taken from a Frisco Chokers blog

At least the Mets have one thing going for them this season
By 'Duk

As the most expensive fourth place team around, the Mets might be again producing another worst team that money could buy.

But let me say this for Flushing's colossal disappointments: At least they've got one heck of a team announcing the crash.

The New York Observer seems to agree with the writing of this solid profile on the three-man SNY booth of Gary Cohen, Ron Darling and Keith Hernandez.

"The Anti-Homers" reads the article's title, and, according to writer John Koblin, the booth has achieved a rare chemistry by mixing the "competent" Cohen, the "incisive" Darling and the "subversive" Hernandez.

I'd concur, because whether Cohen is calling the action better than anyone not named Vin Scully or Hernandez is grilling the Mets' mishaps on the field, they're always worth a stopover when watching Extra Innings on any given night. No matter what the situation. No matter the standings.

And, really, that's the best compliment a baseball booth can be paid, right? That someone with no emotional investment (ie: me) can tune into the game specifically to hear what that team's announcers are up to? That they feel something approaching appreciation?

I have a few other favorites from non-Chicago teams — the NESN crew in Boston is fun, I want Bert Blyleven to circle me and the D'Backs are a guilty pleasure with Mark Grace — but no one comes close to the crew that regularly shows what homerish amateurs the guys across town can be. For my money, if I'm going to tune into any booth on any night – again, Scully remains the obvious gold standard — it's going to be the Mets' trio.

One of your announcers was on ESPN a few weeks ago (Ya know, ESPN with the East Coast Bias have Frisco Choker announcers in the booth) called a Mets game and flat out stated he had no idea that Nolan Ryan, Tom Seaver and Doc Gooden were Mets Pitchers.

And the Mets crew are the best in the business.

[Upton]

30. Unless you give me a name

your charge means nothing...you are no doubt mistaken.

The Giants crew consists of Jon Miller, Kuiper, Mike Krukow and Dave Fleming. The only guy who works for ESPN is Jon and he does the Sunday night games..he's a walking baseball encyclopedia. He was probably being sarcastic with Morgan, as they often both do, and you just didn't pick it up.

[inthebrain]

32. He's a fucking moron

yeah, that was the guy.

You ask even a lay person who moderatly follows the game and they would be able to tell you Seaver used to pitch for the Mets. Same as Nolan Ryan.

That guy is an ass.

No wonder you and Cboy don't know shit about baseball. You have to listen to that stooge.

[cboy4]

35. You are so full of shit.

[Upton]

37. I think he made that story up..

[cboy4]

38. How can anyone who knows a thing about baseball pretend like they've

never heard of Jon Miller before?

Oh yea, that's the guy!1! :eyes:

[madinmaryland]

44. Well. You and coby4 are experts at making up stories.

:shrug:

[Upton]

36. You're just not alert enough to pick up the subtleties

when Miller and Morgan interact...I feel some pity for you, but not much.

Miller has done baseball for some 35 years, broadcasting for the A's, Rangers, Red Sox, Orioles and Giants. He knows more about baseball than you could ever dream of.

[madinmaryland]

43. You can't even spell the word! Are you a real estate agent?

DOUCHE!

[Ekirh]

4. Not sure I consider that a stomping. . .

But this Braves fan will take it. . . .

Ahhh this has been a good series :).

[inthebrain]

9. Considering that this was a 1 hitter up till about the 7th

Yeah, that was an ass kicking.

And that was Frisco's Ace pitcher going tonight.

[Ekirh]

11. Oh I'll definitley take it . .

Hell I'll take how the Braves are playing right now any day. No chance in hell we're ever going to catch the Phillies but if we can mange being over .500 by the end of the season I'll be a happy fan.
