"Soth" still confuses and angers me
I want to punch anyone who uses it.
Sosh I can see. But Soth sounds retarded, and I hate it and I hate you.
I brought sexy back, but they only gave me store credit....

The origins of "The Soth" date back to this May 4th Game Thread
http://www.halosheaven.com/2008/5/4/461579/orioles-angels-sunday-game#5666183
Scroll through to learn how “The Soth” came to be.
Ain't no stoppin' us now. We got the groove!
by Fan Since 1981 on Aug 30, 2008 1:25 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Oh good
so instead of using Sosh, which actually sounds like what we are tying to say, we are to live with someone’s typo of it.
Awesome. Thanks for clearing that up.

Try not to
As long as it makes you happy and I don’t have to use any bad words with you. I’m not a nice man, and you probably don’t want to meet me mouthing off like you do.

Rick Willits is awesome because it underscores the east coast bias and national media ignorance without us having to whine about it.
by Rev Halofan on Aug 30, 2008 3:35 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
good point
Mike Scioscia: He provides to unlike method of your team member.

All this needs to be compiled
Rick Willits is one of my favourites.
I still like Quentin flied out to center field as well, for some reason, even though it’s a totally old joke.

Yes “anaheim angels” there was a list done not too long ago.
by Downing Rules on Aug 31, 2008 1:35 AM PDT reply actions 0 recs
you need to put the memes in there
such as the quentin fly out that has been mentioned already. GA is lazy. It’s all Mickey’s fault. Anything else?
Do you want to also throw in historical references such as A-hole Piershitsky and Doug Eddings, et. al.
If GA wasn't so lazy the Halos woulda won the 2008 WS by now.

I blame 'toast.
Francisco Rodriguez: 199 career saves. 4 career Panthers, almost 1/2 as awesome as GMJ.
