The Dodgers bullpen is like having a huge zit on Dua Lipa.

Part of the beauty of baseball is seeing a guy like Alejandro Kirk, built like a pregnant russet potato, excel.

Shohei Ohtani is 1 of 1. I've watched baseball for closing in on 6 decades and have never seen anything like him.

Schottenheimer and Eberflus, otherwise known as Shotty and Shitty.

3 for Friday 1. You can't be a decent person if you condone the actions of evil people 2. No one who lives an idealic life can write truthful lyrics 3. Greatness requires more commitment than intelligence

Feeling about as low as humanly possible. My ♥️ is shattered. This Mariners loss ranks right up there with the Crabtree catch, the Dwight Clark catch and the Jackie Smith dropped pass as all time sports lows. Will sting forever. Baseball is a cruel game.

Logan Gilbert's performance tonight reminds me of a late Randy VanWarmer song. "You Left Me Just When I Needed You Most"

Today would be a good day for the Seattle Mariners to advance to their first World Series.

Leaving for Port Angeles early in the morning on a business/pleasure excursion. Can't wait to get out of Allergy Hell for a few days and equally excited to be in the PNW during the Mariners playoff run. Will be watching the Longhorns Saturday.

Late Tuesday thought Had a colleague who loved to brag about his academic accomplishments. He had no wife and no life outside school. I left SHSU with a modest GPA, a wife, lifetime friends and stories of adventures to last forever. I win. More to college than books.

I may be the only Mariners fan on the planet who is still nervous with a touchdown lead.

Bazardo's arm has to be made of rubber.

Julio Rodriguez you beautiful human

That was impressive. Never in my wildest sports dreams did I imagine the Mariners would hold that lineup to 1 run. Work left to do. I'm going to enjoy tonight.

Shot in the dark, but looking for any Mariners fans on here who are in Port Angeles. Will be there Thursday through Monday and would love to meet up and watch the games.

Obviously want more, but would be more than satisfied if my Mariners can split these first 2 games in Toronto. Don't love the pitching matchup tonight. This team, however, has consistently silenced my doubts. Can't wait to be in the area later in the week.

Happy for everyone in Mariners Nation, but none moreso than the long suffering diehards who have experienced so much 💔 through the years. Thanks for welcoming this Texas transplant with open arms. Love y'all.

Sports pain is a real thing

This Fox crew is about 4 steps below terrible. This is Tim Brando on a Texas game type stuff.

Gonna be a long day waiting for the Mariners

Heading to the doctor shortly in an attempt to rid myself of a 2 week long sinus infection that has gotten progressively worse Can't sleep. Itchy eyes. Sore throat. Stuffy and runny nose. Pain below eyes. Only allergy sufferers know this kind of misery. Texas is pollen Hell.

OK. I'm officially nervous. Letting Ferguson pitch to that last hitter should be a criminal offense.

Closing on our summer home in Port Angeles Thursday. Flying up Oct. 16 to get it furnished with the necessities. No place on Earth I love like the PNW. Plan is to spend each May through mid October along with the first week of April there. Blessed and grateful.

Watching the Mariners reminds me of a story several years ago about a friend who used to go get beer before every Astros game during their lean years . Asked him why one day and he gave the perfect answer. They're more enjoyable to watch when you're drunk.😂

Looks like a long night/morning of sad songs. When I was younger, always knew there was next year. Now that I'm aware of my own mortality and realize next years may not come, the losses and lost seasons sting more.

Crappy ending to a crappy sports day. Hard being a fan of my teams. Looks like another sleepless night. Death would have to feel better

Wish I was at T-Mobile right now. Living vicariously through all who are.

Most anticipated sports day of 2025 at the extremely modest Thrasher estate. Horns at 2:30 Mariners at 7:30 Hook 'Em For the City. For the Town. For the Sound."

I have straight friends, gay friends, skinny friends, fat friends, fit friends, black friends, white friends, Hispanic friends, Asian friends and Indian friends. The common criteria among all is they're good humans. Never understood why it has to be so hard to get along.

Be careful who you place on a pedestal. They sometimes willingly jump off and take you down with them. It's a lesson I'm still learning at my AARP status.

Mason Miller is filthy

Small towns are funny. Regardless of age and time spent away, you're always the same person you were at 17 in the eyes of locals. Always reminded of such on my infrequent trips back where I spent the majority of my childhood.

Tarik Skubal is filthy. He's the reason as a Mariners fan I'm for Cleveland. Don't want to see him in Game 2 or 3.

Greg Abbott is a scum.of the earth individual who has successfully manipulated the minds of a large majority of Christians in to believing his work is in the name of Jesus. You can substitute the names of Dan Patrick and Ken Paxton with the same accurate description.

Sean Alexander has more kids than the Cowboys offense has productive plays

Sometimes my daughters send texts or call with stuff that paralyzes me. Nothing more so than this with grandson Evan in my baby rocking chair. My mom is no doubt looking down from heaven with tears of joy.

Carson Wentz is Irish for I suck at the game of football

I've seen a lot of bad college 🏈 calls, but it's hard to top that phantom roughing the passer on the Huskies. It's magnified by leading to a Buckeye TD.

Welcome the newest Dallas Cowboys fan to the family. Carson Blake Davidson was born a few minutes ago at a healthy 8 lbs. and 21 inches. Mom and baby are doing well. Linda and I are up here watching his big brother until they come home Saturday.

Todd Raleigh is harder to hit than the Rockies pitcher

Those who have never lived in the PNW and been to T-Mobile during a pennant race have no idea how magical it can be. Won't find a more loyal, hearty, victory starved fan base.

When the Mariners traded for Josh Naylor I thought they were getting a nice player. Didn't realize they were acquiring a possible franchise altering force.

I will remember that Josh Naylor hit the rest of my life. Chills

Losing to the decrepit Rockies with a chance to clinch a playoff berth is the most Mariners thing ever.

The Mariners have me nervous tonight

Woke up this hot, humid Tuesday morning with one thought on my discombobulated brain. THE MAGIC NUMBER FOR MY SEATTLE MARINERS TO CLINCH THE AL WEST IS 3. Yes, I'm screaming it, and yes, I refuse to believe it happens until it does.

Almost in baseball heaven 🧹🧹🧹 FINISH THE JOB MARINERS!

My love affair with Texas 🏈 dates back to 1969 and The Game of the Century against Arkansas. I was a small child mesmerized by the burnt orange color, wishbone offense and fight song I'm a devoted SHSU alum whose affinity for the Longhorns will never die. Proud T-shirt fan

No better medicine for an aching tooth than watching Cal Raleigh swing a bat

The 2 A's - allergies and anxiety - making it a challenging Monday morning. Y'all have a great week.
