The only way the Angels can see the Astros...
 

The difference is that the Yankees and the Red Sox actually still play in October.

(To the tune of John Fogerty's Centerfield)
 
Well, screw the team and hold the runs - the team has sucked today!
 We’re dead again, another loss on the board.
 Almost at first, and just behind, it’s a gift call at the bag;
 Anyone can understand the way I feel.
 
 Chorus:
 Oh, pull me now, coach - I’m ready to sit, right now;
 Pull me now, coach - I’m ready to sit, right now;
 Look at me, I can ride, the pine.
 
 Well, I spent some time with the fans and I, drank too much last night;
 You know I took some lumps with that 8th shot on the bar.
 So oh my gawd, I’m vurping now and tasting the bile again;
 I’m gonna puke and you know the time is now.
 
 Chorus
 
 Yeah! I’m gonna, I’m gonna!
 
 It’s a comin’ up, a comin’ fast, and I cannot stop it now;
 You know I think it’s time I find a toilet soon.
 Just to open my mouth and launch it all - a moment that I need;
 (Blech) it’s gone and you can flush that one goodbye!
 
 Chorus
 
 Chorus
 Yeah!  

The choice was either an Air Jordan T or a Buffalo Bills Superbowl Champions T.

Opening Day will be a sell out, regardless of whether or not there are still seats and/or tickets available.

At least there were a few more hits scattered about the lineup today.
 
Burnett and the rest of the Bullpen continues to impress.
 
By the way, Chuck's normal Silver Linings Thread rules still apply.

Iannetta > Callaspo > Kendrick > Bourjos > The Ball Boy > The Clubhouse Attendant > The Janitor > Aybar

Of course it's a must win. The Angels cannot, must not, will not let this game be the deciding factor between making the playoffs and watching from couch this October.
The season rides on the outcome of today's game.

Worst day of the year is easily April 15.
Every other day on the calendar is competing for second place.

Fubar is #2.
 
How appropriate......

Someone needs to tell DiPoto that if he keeps this up, some fans on the Angelswin.com message boards might just start calling him a "failo".

The only "sauce" I get on my steak is the overflow juice from the pickled watermellon rind, and that is not necessarily a bad thing.  While entirely welcome, it's completely unnecessary.
 
The thing about a steak is that, if you need to cook it past Medium-Rare, you shouldn't be eating that steak in the first place.  Spend the extra $2 and get a better quality steak.

That, or His Dudeness … Duder … or El Duderino, if, you know, you're not into the whole brevity thing.

But, but.... YOU'RE the Dude, man....

The perfect home-made steak (for me).
 
Fire up the grill on high.  Remove steak from fridge 45 minutes prior to cooking. Salt and pepper to taste, then wrap with plastic wrap and leave on counter until ready to use.
 
Using tongs, take a paper towel soaked with oil and wipe down the grill.  Place steak on grill for 2 minutes.  Turn 90* and move to an unused part of the grill that's been wiped down with oil. Cook for another 2 minutes. Flip steak and place on another part of the grill that is oiled.  Cook for 2 minutes. Turn 90* and cook for another 2 minutes.
 
Remove from grill and immediately cover with aluminum foil.  Rest for 10 minutes.
 
Serve with a simple salad, Baked Potato, and pickled watermelon rind.

"Not only is the weather getting warmer, the Sun is getting brighter."
Yeah. Wait.... What?

You can't express concern about anything about the Angels until at least June on these boards, otherwise, you're labeled a "failo", even if it's abundantly obvious that there are serious concerns.

In before the next child gets raped.

After all the years of misery being an Angels fan, I detested the cockiness the phrase "Just Another Halo Victory" brought, as if it were a ho-hum thing.  It wasn't.  Every day the Angels won was a good day, and every day the Angels lost was a bad one.  And over the course of the Angels history, they had more bad days than good ones, as such, I had more bad days than good ones.
 
I vote for "Light That Baby Up!"  It's much more appropriately celebratory.

The one food dish I look forward to for Spring Training every year are the Filiberto's breakfast burritos.
Those who have never had one don't know. Those who have make it a priority.
There's one just across the freeway on Broadway that I always hit before making to Tempe Diablo for morning workouts.
Man this year sucks. This is the first in over 15 years I'm not heading down there (as of right now).
Enjoy a Filiberto's burrito for me, please.
