Seasons Over

PrintEnough with the comeback. Angels fans, face the fact that it was not our year. There is no one to blame about the vlad situation , but Vlad. No one saw that coming. This off season is were we see if we have a solid GM or a sissy. We have a team that is getting older and our so called "top prospects" have not done anything. I personally do not want to hear anything about our rookies in the farm system. I lost it with Wood. So lets all cross our fingers and hope that we have a front office that steps up to the plate and cleans house so we can be bak in the October hunt.

It's refreshing to get such a unique view on the situation.
I’ve yet to see anyone discuss this here, ever.
"Bak in the October Hunt"
A cute Croatian situational comedy about life in a Russian submarine — sort of a “Hogan’s Heroes” meets “The Hunt for Red October” thing — starring, improbably, Scott Bakula, in his European return to the small screen!

So, I take it that you're not smarter than a fifth grader.
Too bad you can’t blame your utter lack of syntax on the a-a-a-a-a-al-co-hol.
the horror ............... the horror .......... the horror

You lost it long before Wood had anything to say about it
- “were” = where
- “vlad” = Vlad, as you note later in the sentence
- no space between word and commas
- “lets” = let’s
- “bak” = back
- “rookies” aren’t in the “farm system”; they are by definition on the big-league club
Aside from that, your argument, such as it is, is mostly asinine. For instance, you may have witnessed a fine performance as recently as tonight by one of our recent so-called (note the hyphen there) “top prospects,” guy by the name of Jered Weaver.
BRAVO!
Aside from your normal excellence, you just illustrated, quite innocently with your frustration, that there is much to be gleaned from the way a person puts words on paper (or computer).
Writing is somewhat like a fingerprint: one can be identified, characterized, labeled, and predicted.
“Primary Colors” is my favorite example of how a writer can be identified simply by examining his previous habits of expressing himself. I remember hearing a commentator on the radio suggest that Joe Klein might be the novel’s author many, many months before he finally admitted his authorship. The assertion was based solely on an analysis of the writing style and syntax previously used by Klein.
Lots of times I make mistakes expressing my thoughts here on HH. Usually, I don’t worry about it; most here don’t really care, some don’t know the difference. However, I do have my pride regarding how I present myself on the world wide web.
If a poster, or commenter, has no pride in his own work, perhaps a bit of consideration for others might be in order.
So now we pray for 4 days of rain and wait for another Weaver start
Team is not a good team! You can winning a spelling contest, and the team is still going to be bad! I don’t care how you say it or spell it the thing still is crap!
Does this mean my allegiance is gone and I have traded teams. No I didn’t do it in the 70’s when everyone was a Dodger fan and laughed at me because I was an Angel fan so it won’t happen now. I just know when someone is feeding me a shit sandwich, and telling me its chicken, and that’s what this club did back in the winter. So If a fan wants to spout off he is upset, and makes some rant that’s fine by me.
Just don’t like reading the LA Times, and seeing that the skipper doesn’t think its because of poor evaluations. What the hell else is it? You know your not going to go a whole season with guys not on the DL so don’t feed me that line either. Your only as good as your last player on the bench and as of now that was the guy that was going to be the next greatest thing. So tell me FO that you don’t think you missed on your evaluations of players one more time, and I will shove one of your “chicken sandwiches” in your face just like you have done to me.
P.S.
I stopped drinking the punch a long time ago so don’t offer me that to wash down the meal either!!

I realize that
just get tired of all the ways people try to spin things about this club that was assembled back in the winter. It was clear that it wasn’t a team that was going to compete for a championship and winning the AL West isn’t much as an accomplishment as it once was way back when.

I chose to have faith in the 2010 team after that winter, but....
… I always knew it was more of the religious variety.
Given the fact that today is the Sabbath,
this remark is either highly apropos, or highly inappropriate!
Can't it be both?

As a teacher, I agree whole-heartedly with your thoughts.
Trolling this poster’s profile reveals that the user posted a “Seasons Done” fanpost on the Clipper’s fansite. Actually it was entitled “Seaaons Done.”
I hope you’re still a teenager, and I applaud and encourage your participation in fan sites like this, but please take a little time to think out and proofread your posts. You have to expect a little heat with a post like this.

Miles, in the movie "Sideways" was so depressed ...

If it was only so simple with some other things that are associated
with this team huh Rev?

Give them some BAN roll-on...
they STINK.
I love this team.

The Losers wasn't a very good movie
Not sure why anyone would love it.

Send the team home
No need to play out the rest of the season. It’s over. Give the players a jump start on the offseason. Everyone over 30 go home immediately. Everyone under 20 can leave Monday.

If anyone thinks I was serious, I wasn't.
I just think we ought to let the rest of the season play out and then look back at what happened. When it gets to be December and January I’d give anything to have 49 baseball games to follow. Let’s go for the ride and see what we can do for next year.

The Halos will have no trouble repeating with the wilting Texas team phoning in the final 40 percent of the season like they did tonight.
-The awesomeness that is Rev!!!

Rev wins by getting enough people to jump on a hate bandwagon...
impressive stuff.
I love this team.
by Downing Rules on Aug 7, 2010 9:40 AM PDT up reply actions
I thought it was pretty clever.
The part about Rev living in his car taking talismanic photos was a gutbuster.
Funny in places but strange.
Why is Rev dressed up like Captain EatYourBroccoli?
And what’s the LL guy supposed to be? The Blue Phone?
THIS… IS… ANAHEIM!!
... Don't know about the Blue Phone,
but I belive he represented Lone Star Ball. He referenced Jeff Sullivan from LL.
I’ve got to admit it is entertaining.
I thought it was really funny, actually.
Even though it takes shots at our beloved Rev.
And I think those type cartoons on xtranormal you have a really limited selection of characters.

Who would have guessed that whenever the Rev steps into a phone booth
and removes his glasses & panther t-shirt, he transforms into Broccoli Man?
All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine.
by Quad Fin Rider on Aug 8, 2010 8:32 PM PDT up reply actions
I know.
We knew he was special but not that he had the power to transform into Broccoli Man!
THIS… IS… ANAHEIM!!
I just checked out the LSB link
That video is absolutely priceless! Apparently, HH brings out the best in them, because that was damn funny!
i think that made rev look good

Damn, really?
I get that he’s seen as a troll around here but all you guys are doing is feeding him incentive to keep up with the random, simpleton nonsense. Didn’t your parents teach you to pay no attention to the kids starving for attention?

I don't really mind him
I just find a little enjoyment in poking at him. I don’t really think he should be shot, maybe shot out of a cannon.
Feeding the trolls is what makes teh intrawebz fun
So I was reading all of your ramblings above, got to the end and saw on the SBNation link to right the funniest thing I have seen this season...
Lance Berkman hit a line drive (rarely happened so far for Yanks) in BP that nailed ARoid in the leg. I’m sorry but that just made me laugh aloud… :D
I hope he misses the rest of this season
Anything that can happen to prevent him from reaching Ruth’s, Aaron’s or even Bonds Home run totals sounds good.

Would selecting a name like "ILUVLOSERS" be considered narcissistic?
