Most mid-westerners root for the Tigers or do they not suck enough.

Idaho is actually part of the Rocky Mountains, and we identify more with the Pacific Northwest. Also I was born and raised in Huntington Beach. If you call me a mid-westerner again I will shake my fist in great anger 

Edit: And burn Hamiltown to the ground, whilst shaking my fist in great anger!

...I will still be watching every game I can on MLB.tv, and I will still be rooting for the team to win, and I will still be making my yearly road trip down to OC from Idaho to catch a home series in September, because this may be a pretty crappy team right now, but dammit its MY pretty crappy team.

He isn't wrong, lol

I think Victors tone reflects how badly the team is playing. I like it because Physioc would be such an optimistic homer no matter what was happening, and I think Victor is being honest about how he is feeling while still being professional. Gubi to me sounds like the color commentator on a EA Sports MVP Baseball game saying the same crap over and over again.

playoffs

I miss Robertson.

A agree. You know who I also miss? JB Shuck.

We signed traded for Victorino, why?

It's been really bad. Not quite late 80's early 90's bad but still I can't remember ever seeing a stretch where a team is so bad with RISP.

I agree. He isn't a very good 3rd base coach at all. This is one of those "Sosh is loyal to his guys" hires...

The team is still above .500 and still competing for BOTH the Wildcard and the Division. I too remember the bad 'ol days, and Mike Trout didn't even exist back then.

Chuck, lay off the sauce. I think living in Seattle is messing with your head.

Go Angels!

The Cleveland Browns starting Quarterback

Thats actually pretty cool

Nike needs to make a trout logo...

I think this should sufficiently represent out Lord and Savior Mike Trout to Nike and the World:

"The name is Stephan, Jack Stephan" "We're in the White Pages"

Damn SoCal had some awesome commercials

"Keys, keys, Keys on Van Nuys"

Where you wont get a lemon! (I wouldn't have got a Lemon?) At Toyota..of..Orange....

I still occasionally bust that out to the puzzled looks of my coworkers since i now reside in Idaho.

Uh oh Chuck has come off the rails, Angelssuck.com debut imminent.... 

Who the hell let an optimist in here?

 

EDIT: Don't you know that baseball isn't supposed to be fun. 

How dare you sir call me an Optimist! I am highly something something.....

This board is so much more fun when the team is stinking it up. It was so quiet and barren when they were kicking ass around the All Star break. I'm glad I don't ride the same rollercoaster as some of you because I seriously would need Xanax, lol

They will be fine. They weren't the best team in Baseball coming into the season but they are still a playoff contender.

Next can we trade Trout for Julio Franco?

I guess the fan didn't realize the rarity of a baseball that Josh Hamilton had made actual contact with.

Shawn Boskie

Well is it possible that woman is his GF or Wife?

Somewhere Bill Cosby is like "Seee, your doing it wrong zippity zappity doo...you gotta spike the jello puddin pop!"

I was thinking to myself last night that if Trout continues to do what he is doing, he could quite literally go down at the BEST player in the history of Baseball. it's getting to the point where there is nobody left to compare him to. It's crazy to say that because I try not to get too excited about all the hype around Trout to keep things in perspective, but he keeps surpassing all the hype.

So everyone was talking about Harper and how he has "arrived". Sorry Bryce, this is Trouts world and you are just living in it. MVP!

We must follow the same people on twitter
