Huh?

[Angel Dog and Beer]

TDawg wants you to go to lemonparty.org

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Don't do it.

No clue what that is, but I'm going to pass.

This is a joke, how they are surrendering against a pitcher with a near 8.00 ERA!

Don't do what? It's just a party of older gentlemen who enjoy citrus.

No

This is just frosting on the cake of SIX years of losing seasons embarrassment, joining ONLY the Pirates in having that streak.

Why would you be embarrassed?  You have no control over what happens.

I still cannot remove the image seared into my brain after clicking on that link about 10 years ago or so. Brandon posted it in the political forum talking about some alternative political party. I was dumb and clicked on it.

True. Only AJ has complete control over a player's performance. And apparently Lou, too.

You underestimate the collective power of AW. One day we'll band together and purchase a 0.00003% stake in the team

[Angel Oracle]

And home ump squeezing the new kid, at least 4 of the 8 ball calls  on Peguero’s two walks could have been strikes.

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Hmmm... seems we're getting the Las Vegas version of Elvis in this game. 

[rafibomb]

Wantz only threw 9 pitches before being removed from the game.

[AngelsFaninGA]

Nice work. 2 run deficit may as well be 12 when facing the unstoppable force that is Cy Akins

[tdawg87]

Lol

[Angel Oracle]

Season implosion has arrived.

Tank for top 8 pick.   Might as well move up one spot.

[T.G.]

AO, baseball, like life - is unpredictable.  The sooner you realize and accept that, the sooner you can stop being the old man that yells at the clouds.

Unknown injury with no timetable, or Covid?

Or just Maddon?

The only thing imploding is you.

Looks like it was just Maddon

As soon as they finally contend again, because this losing crap gets old.

Just like with LB State basketball since 5 years back

Disagree. It's pretty easy to predict that the Angels won't make the playoffs in any given year. On the other hand, I may win the lottery or grow a third arm.
