"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....

by PhiSlamma on Aug 30, 2008 12:16 PM PDT up 0 recs

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 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.

Escobar = Myspace

Mike Scioscia: He provides to unlike method of your team member.

by howiestheman on Aug 29, 2008 11:12 PM PDT 0 recs

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 0 recs

good point

Mike Scioscia: He provides to unlike method of your team member.

by howiestheman on Aug 30, 2008 8:20 AM PDT up 0 recs

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.

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Do you want to also throw in historical references such as A-hole Piershitsky and Doug Eddings, et.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.
