HAHA!
David, your day has come!
Alex Trebek: Let's just go to Final Jeopardy. The category is...oh come on, why would they do this? The category is Famous Mothers.
Sean Connery: [ laughs ] My day has come! [ keeps laughing ]
Anyways, I did not follow the Mariners game last night. Instead, I watched the Boston-Anaheim game on ESPN2. Vladimir Guerrero is awesome. HE IS THE BEST RIGHT FIELDER IN THE GAME! If you even try to dispute this point, you are an idiot.
There was a reason why I didn't follow the M's game last night. My internet wasn't working, therefore the only way of "following" the game was checking out the bottom line. Needless to say, Josh Phelps GOT ALL OF THAT!
How about some non-Mariner news?
---So the name of "Qwest Field" isn't "official" yet.
The Washington State Public Stadium Authority must approve of the name change, which I think they will soon enough. Qwest Field isn't a horrible name by any means. It could be worse. There were rumors of Comcast buying the naming rights to Seahawks Stadium. The stadium exhibition center will be renamed Qwest Center. Creighton's basketball arena in Omaha, NE is also called the Qwest Center, in case you were wondering.
Personally, it will always be the Hawks Nest to me.
---These "Take Me Fishing" commercials are brutal. David hit on this the other day, so now I will as well.
I just hate it when these commercials come on. The first person to come on is a little boy, who can't be any older than 7. He's about ready to cry, because he wants to learn how to ride the boat. YOU'LL GET NOTHING AND LIKE IT!!!
But the old man at the end of one of the "take me fishing" commercials is just a sad figure. He's going to die if he can't see his boy. Touching. If I want to see an old man in a commercial, just replay the Viagra commercial 200 times over. The old man coming out the door (3rd scene) is just hysterical.
What would my "take me fishing" commercial consist of? Well, here it is:
"Take me fishing, because I don't give a crap about Major League Soccer, dad!"
(9 year old to his father)
"Take me fishing, because I'll make you a grandfather soon!"
(13 year old girl to her father)
"Take me fishing, because the Trail Blazers were eliminated from the playoffs months ago!"
(Me)
---Speaking of the NBA, the Finals don't start until Sunday. The Finals will end by the time fall semester starts up again for me.
Oh, the Lakers will win. Not that I want them to win it all, but it's more than likely that they will. The only way to stop Kobe Bryant is to put him in prison. Screw this whole "innocent until proven guilty" deal, I hope he's found guilty. I've never bought his smug attitude from day one. He's not a hero, folks.
At least the Pistons aren't full of Bad Boys. They got that going for them.
---Bill Laimbeer sucks. So does Jake O'Donnell.
---The Nolan Richardson trial is taking forever here in Arkansas. This is a waste of time. It's too bad to think that Richardson's legacy in Arkansas won't be for his tenure as Arkansas basketball coach, but for this stupid trial.
Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. --- "Billy Madison" (1995)
---Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals is in Tampa tonight. Regardless of what Flames coach Darryl Sutter has said, the one-game suspension of Ville Nieminen was justified. While Tampa Bay's Vincent Lecavalier is OK, it was a cheap shot. Nieminen is no stranger to cheap shots. See Game 4 of the Detroit series.
I hope the Flames win the Cup. I can't imagine the Cup in Tampa-St. Petersburg.
---It's June 3 and I'm already thinking about football. Not only am I thinking about the Seahawks, I'm thinking about college football as well. This is what happens when there is no hope for your baseball team whatsoever.
Then again, I'm always like this. Football is great, dammit.
---Bob Melvin doesn't need a hug, Angie Who's Had Hundreds of Men Tink A Little Stars On Her. He needs to get the hell out of Seattle. So does Bill Bavasi. I would say Howard Lincoln, but he's not going anywhere.
---On that note, this post is over.
Well, well, the one game I get to see this weekend, I get a Jamie Moyer-Esteban Loaiza matchup. That's Sunday, by the way.
