The Angel's, Bill's, and Pelicans? How did you come up with those teams? Having followed the Mariners the last 20 plus years, I know all about disappointing baseball. :wink:
I get that a lot. I grew up in Hawaii and started following those teams as a kid. At least you have the Seahawks though... The Bills haven't been good since the Clinton administration. :banghead:

Yes, the Hawks have been a true blessing. Having lost the Sonics, along with the whole Kings fiasco, we were due for some good karma finally. :D

At least you have Anthony Davis & Mike Trout. :thumbsup:

Two straight wins over the Royals for the Angels. Jered Weaver is 3-0 to start the season, which I wouldn't have predicted in a million years. He was very lucky that the offense finally woke up last night.

Bat flip = bad. Intention pitches thrown at players for flips/retaliation to previous HBP = "the code". I hate this about baseball.

It's a shame that the Rangers took that road against Jose. They should have plunked him first at bat of the season, but they waited until the last one where they knew they would have to face him again. I thought it was a soft way to go about it.

LOL. He was still standing , barely phased after Odor sucker-punched him square in the jaw. How the hell does that equate to getting his ass kicked?

Rangers still salty over something that happened last October, and like a bunch of wimps wait til the last at-bat of the series to hit him. What a bunch of bitches.

Not a sucker punch.

Joey Bats didn't put up much of a fight with Adrian Beltre holding him back.

Either:
a) he didn't want anymore; or

b) he was a little dazed and confused.

I don't think it was a sucker punch in the truest sense. But I don't think Joey expected Odor to punch him either.

Rangers are chicken ****. Could have hit Jose last series or G1 of this series, but they had to wait til the last at-bat they'll have until 2017.
