No Holliday tonight: “non-baseball-related condition”
If I may channel mikeA: KILL THEM
FREE KRAUT!
We supply the kraut, you supply the links. A blog for fans of the Oakland A’s, Adam West, unicorns, fermented cabbage, cheap thrills, expensive whiskey, and trough urinals. Not necessarily in that order.

FREE KRAUT! 
If you’re a local looking for CSNwhatever on DirectTV, tonight it’s on 652 for whatever reason.
A HIT!!!1111!!!
Moseley looks like if JediLeroy photoshopped Urban + Harden
I’m trying to multi-task during the game. Anyone in this rumpus room have any genius tips on how to finish raw carpet edges so they won’t fray? So far I’m trying to elmer’s glue along the cut edge.
multitasking myself … still stuck @ work.
i will ask mrs monkeyball. she’s the handy one.
Cahill looks like JediLeroy photoshopped mikeA and Joe Blanton
crap. c’mon Cahill, you got this.
deep breath, one more out
i hate it when the slegna actually score using their scioscia-esque smallball
HRs and 2Bs i can accept
like that, unfortunately
oh great, will this bring out scoicia for the first time this season. here we go
mikeA predicted the leadoff walk,five days ago
I’ll take it. onward and upward
Now I’ve got that dumb “mini sirloin burgers” song glued to my brain. It probably won’t seem as irritating whne we take the lead.
MaEl! Double! Lovely.
Everything is lovely tonight. I didn’t get to watch last night’s game, so now I’m sitting here, staring at my TV with a huge smile on my face. My boys are back.
Hi, Ryan!
hit ’em where they ain’t, dammit.
thank goodness vlad is so slow.
Alright, it’s gotta happen right here.
Yes! First run of the season!
Alright, snap poll: since xbx was so hot and bothered to get FREE KRAUT! up and running, yet chooses to spend his game-thread time at **, should we take him off the KRAUTHOR list?
LOL no only is he posting in the game thread, he’s giffing!
“giffing” sounds dirty
Let’s win one for the giffer!
… or like something one does to the frayed ends of carpet …
I don’t think the glue is working. I don’t think it’s going to hold. I left my glue gun at work, but I think I’ll try that tomorrow.
a run a run a run!!!!11111111!!!!!!!!!1
I AM SPARTA-CUST!
oooh, I like it. Keep ’em coming.
Too easy.
TWSS.
that luck just ain’t right.
That sounds like it was exciting…
Hold up. THREE runs?! Don’t spend them all in one place, boys! We have 160 more games to go!
I know! The bounty, the beauteous bounty!
Yeah! Yippie kay yay mini sirloin burgers!!
Yep, not as irritating when winning.
Whoa, MaEl has so much hair. What’s up with that?
Leads?!?
tonight on Free Kraut “When hotties collide…”
Like, OMG, I, like, totally din’t see her there…
Cahill still in!
dude.
KILL THE ANGELS. DESTROY THEIR VILLAGE. KIDNAP THEIR WOMEN. USE THEIR TOILETS AND LEAVE THE SEAT UP.
+1
TURN THEIR PORCINE FEEDING TROUGH INTO A URINAL
Destroy your enemy, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women.
That’s our mayor, you know.
looks like my summer softball league oth there.
oof. Useless.
F’ing hit and run worked.
First strikeout! Woo!
Suzuki throws out the small baller!
LETS DO THIS!!
Oh, NOW you show up.
Got bANned yet?
I’ve got fewer strikes than Cahill.
Good thing we haven’t yet implemented the FREE KRAUT robotic mods.
Facepalm at all the CUCK FUST comments over at **.
Fuck Cust!
Works just the same here.
Somehow, they’re more meaningful here.
How come your name gets to be blue?
(ijustbluemyself.gif)
I have no idea. Maybe the FK robotic mods know something I don’t.
Test
=======
EDIT: I am also blue. I have the POWER!!
Bwahahahaha
.
You gotta post a diary, xbox. It’s a link to all the diaries you’ve written.
I AM STILL SPARTA-CUST!
“no-spin changeup”?
Damnit, radio guys just beat me to the O’Reilly joke while I was writing this!
I sure do love me some Jairo.
Lew Wolff is sporting a sharper hair cut this spring. Less disheveled.
Radio here… how does the jacket look this year?
Same jacket he broke out last year, dark blue windbreakery thing. I’m think he buys jackets on a five year plan, so we’ll see the next new one in 2013.
If Devine makes it back, we’re going to have an absolutely filthy bullpen.
Chavy is looking really good, I’m optimistic.
I see you’ve got the power now.
J. Bulger is still a powerfully evocative name to see written.
A different evocation for us yanks.
Victory!
And we’re not French, so we do have a word for it!
is mine
VICTORY CABBAGE!
VICTORY CABBAGE!
VICTORY CABBAGE!
Ohmygoodness, Matt Holliday’s kids are adorable.
The Mariners took a tough loss today; LL was in mid-season form.
Brandon Morrow: 0.2IP, 0H, 3R, 3BB for a 40.05 ERA and BB/9
Obviously at 6’3″ Morrow is not tall enough to be a good relief pitcher.
Even the slugs at HH are starting to catch on…
And the Rev’s explanation is a masterpiece of disingenuity.
I just posted a DLD there, and basically stole an AP photo to put in it. I anticipate a lawsuit.
Why would you post a DLD at Halos Heaven? (Or **, for that matter …)
Truthfully? A lot of it is the interface.
Then there’s the fact that I seem paranoid about FK, like the dogs are circling outside the campfire light.
Fear not – that’s just the dogfather.
Eh, it’s only when the dogs start walking upright that you need to worry.
That pregame guesses graphic is mind-bogglingly lame.
The Rev seems to have
sold outbought in to the program big-time – witness this morning’s front page puff-piece Discounts and Smiles Greet Angel Stadium Visitors.I won’t dispute that Rev has bought in to the SBN mission plan, but that post by itself is not constitutive of evidence: Rev has always been a cheap bastard with praise at the ready for bargains and good value for price deals. He’s done lots of strong pro-consumer pieces at HH.
And FWIW, I disagree with your and xbx’s assertions above — xbx is simply trolling, and casting aspersions without real relevance to the details at hand.
I’ll admit I haven’t read HH in a very long time, but the tone of the piece (and the headline especially) were very different from my recollection of the Rev’s style, even if the substance was familiar.
I’m not sure what your beef with xbx is … it seemed to me that he was just reporting HH’s dawning understanding of what the SBN/Yahoo deal means. I would also stand by my assertion that the Rev’s claim that replacing their front-page Win/Loss photoshops with an AP feed was an exercise in democracy is massively disingenuous.
Eh, I saw the “democracy” remark as more snarky than disingenuous. But you could be right.
Are you really going to argue that xbx isn’t trolling at HH?
Haven’t read the HH thread for xbx’s comments, just the one above here (which is what I took you to be referring to).
