No, you got all your runs and your one (1) allotted win of the series last night.
At least Dallas is white
Oakland fans be like: The refs are about to win my basketball team another asterisk championship!
Dallas fans be like: yea...but whos winning THIS game?
>>68481190
I thought 2 million illegal mexicans move from CA to Texas everyday tho
Hello Texas!
How have you been lately? Last night was a very exciting game!
>>68481337
I guess
>basketball team is good
>Oakland "fans" everywhere
>baseball team is mediocre
>Oakland fans nowhere to be found
Shows what kind of casual pieces of human feces Oakland "fans" are
>>68481410
But why are you mad, m8?
>rags
I really really want to keep Profar and have him be a utility infielder or 3rd or 1st base
>>68481410
You forgot the Raidniggers.
>cuckhoop
lmao
fuck, hopefully that was perez's bad inning
>>68481337
>for you
Anyone going to see Timmy pitch against us on Saturday? It should be pretty funny.
>>68481559

Ugggggggggggh a's have NO STARTING pitching
Is that afro real?
>>68481461
U mad?
Hahaha Texas>Califagia
Lastnight was a fluke and every As fan in this thread is either mexican or asian haha
>>68482321
what afro?
I work for ESPN and me and my colleagues literally cant figure out a way to stop the 2016-2017 Texas Rangers. They are easily the best team in the league, and dare I say...the best team ever?
Im neutral, I just calls it like I sees it.
>>68482472
white guy right behind home plate
I guess we'll be ones scoring 14 tonight
damn that A's spageggi
Why do Californians think its appropriate to make Texans stay up till 12:30 am to watch a baseball game? Very, very disrespectful.
I haven't had Papa John's in over a week, I need the Rangers to score another run.
>>68482547
I see who you're talking about now, that's a pretty impressive afro if it's real.
>>68482636
We Papa John's now Rangerbros.
The two largest population states in the nation and this thread has 38 replies, just sad.
>>68483319
The Rangers never have much of a presence in the gamethreads.
>>68483344
We're usually at the game, it's pretty cheap. I just got home from work though.
>>68483344
In the past at least Tiki and Zangief would show up, now its just me and this Mazara trip guy, sad!
>>68483371
Yeah, it is pretty cheap. You can get decent seats off of stubhub for $30 or so even on the weekends.
>>68483409
I thought Mazara was tiki tbqh
>>68483435
Maybe, I just noticed he has tiki in his little trip password thing.
>>68483463
Mazara = Cowboys Dynasty and has Tiki in his tripcode so I just assumed that he was, in fact, Tiki.
>>68483490
Probably. Tiki, why would you change your trip after all these years?
Profar is looking more and more like he can be a Ben Zobrist type in the future who can play 5 games a week at 3 or 4 different positions. That or trade Elvis in the winter and dump the contract while we can I'm fine with either
>>68484108
I'm just worried that Profar will explode his shoulder again once everything seems to have settled down and people stop worrying about that happening...
Rangers..
>>68484108
Elvis is entering prime and playing like it he stays
Mitch is gone next year. Gallo maybe grts called up
Damnit Perez, stop that shit
>>68484285
My worry with Elvis is while he definitely has production left in him, there's $14.5 mil committed to him for the next eight years and this may be the last opportunity we have to trade him without having to eat any of that contract.
rekt
based bullpenfu
>>68484358
I'm faggy, IF the Rangers ever win a world series I want Elvis to be a part of it, I grow attached our players, I still miss Kinsler.
>>68484358
No one is going to take on that contract without making us take on another teams ridiculous contract and giving up other pieces. Im comfortable keeping Elvis. Fielder is the dude we need to be getting rid of tbqh
>burns
jesus
why the fuck is Ramos starting next week against the Cards? is there seriously no other option?
>>68484611
I guess we'll be giving up another free win that night...
>Andrus HR
>>68484680
He has adjusted his swing last few years. He is hitting more frequently in more gaps and for more bases in his career
>>68484680
Neat!
>>68484611
AJ still on DL and Yu went back on. Its fine there is no need to rush them like years past
>>68484717
I'm ready for Keone Kela to come back too.
>jokeland
is this like winning a world series for Dullass?
>tfw we had the perfect combo of power hitting and small ball/base running in 2011 and we blew it.
>A few weeks after the Padres drafted him in 2004, Bush was arrested on suspicion of felony assault, misdemeanor trespass, disorderly conduct, and underage drinking, after he allegedly fought with security trying to escort him out of a bar.
>In early 2009, Bush was allegedly involved in a drunken assault at a San Diego high school, which was caught on camera. According to witnesses, a drunken Bush beat up a high school lacrosse player with a golf club while screaming, "I'm Matt fucking Bush!" Only a month later, he assaulted and berated a woman at a party in Florida, and was released by the Blue Jays for violating a "zero tolerance" agreement.
>On March 22, 2012, Bush was arrested and charged with two counts of DUI with property damage, one count of DUI with serious bodily injury, one count of leaving the scene of an accident with an injury, one count of driving with a suspended license, and 2 counts of leaving the scene of an accident with damage to property. In the incident, Bush hit 72-year-old motorcyclist Tony Tufano on the Tamiami Trail (U.S. Route 41) northbound in Port Charlotte, Florida, running over his head as he fled the scene.
>>68484918
How should we know, we've never won a World Series before...
>>68484918
I am 27 and the 2011 NBA Finals is the only time I got to see my team win a championship. 1999 Stars didnt count, I dont even like hockey.
>>68484944
And he plead guilty, did his time, got help, and got back to work. What's your point?
>>68484978
That nigga's crazy as fuck when he gets some alcohol in his system.
Shit...thought we could thank the fat man again
>>68484978
He plead no contest, he didn't plead guilty. There's a difference.
>>68484996
>RBI double
thank you based fat man
>>68484995
Rangers did get Hamilton help and turned him into a star
>>68484967
I still remember going to Victory Plaza the night after game 6. That shit was fucking incredible. The cops let everyone party within reason for a while. They made everyone leave after one dumbass tried to climb a light post to steal a banner, and another dumbass tried to lead the way and tip over a news van.
fuck cubans
>>68485025
>tfw you speak too soon
>>68485048
>They made everyone leave after one dumbass tried to climb a light post to steal a banner, and another dumbass tried to lead the way and tip over a news van.
kek
>>68485048
The degree to which 2006 hurt made 2011 so sweet. I was so nervous that entire playoff run I didn't sleep right for weeks.
Of course now I don't even give a shit about apehoop anymore, but 2001-2012 I was fucking obsessed.
>>68485048
>>68485078
So did anyone else join the guy trying to tip the news van over or was it just the one drunk dude pushing on the van while everyone else just looked at him like he was retarded?
Who /papajohns/ here?
>>68485115
I'll be ordering pizza for lunch tomorrow, that's for sure.
>>68485112
No, most of the people were drunk, but he was the only one going full retard. Most people were just staring at him. Some black guy even yelled "nigga this ain't no riot!"
Rangers fans where were you when we blew the world series game vs the Cardinals? I was at work, I had clocked out but stayed to watch the rest of the game, I thought we won when Josh Hamilton hit the 2 run homer in extras, I was so happy but then when the Cards tied the game and won my coalburner coworker started screaming and cheering, she didnt even like sports but she was glad our hometown team lost, I was so mad I felt like crying, we fuckin had it.
>>68485115
>mfw so much Papa Johns this year
>>68485142
sounds awkward
>>68485147
I was watching the game at my parents house... It was very quiet towards the end of the game.
>>68485147
I was at a bar and just left, didn't even close my tab out because I was so mad. Had to return the next day to close and get my card back.
>>68485155
fuck here's the image that was supposed to go with it
>>68485048
>>68485112
We watched the game at AAC and it was GOAT. Never hugged so many strangers in my life. Then we went to this patio bar on the side of House of Blues and observed the unwashed mob beneath us. It was pretty joyous, they tried for like 20 minutes to burn a Heat jersey before finally giving it up
ripip phegley
>rags bullpen full of violent criminals
>>68485082
Same man, I became obsessed with the mavs in middle school when it was Dirk/Nash and we choked every year, 2006 was so painful but it made 2011 so much sweeter, I care less now that Dirk finally got his ring.
>>68485147
I had gotten destroyed by one of the hardest tests I had ever taken (Reaction Engineering) and was having to climb back on the horse because the homework literally would take all week. The TV was on in the study room, and for a brief moment I foolishly thought I could take solace in the Rangers winning the WS.
The punchline is I was going to University in St Louis at the time. What a miserable semester.
Well, I got my degree and a job at least.
>>68485185
Dude it was crazy in that area. I remember these two hot chicks walking around with bottles of vodka and offering up shots to anyone who was down.
>>68485183
I like to think TC is a /sp/artan
>>68485147
I was bartending and my dad and brother came up to watch the game with at my bar, which is a big deal bc my brother lived an hour away and my Dad never goes ANYWHERE
This annoying little Mexican dude kept yelling RANNGERS WURLD SEREES SHAMPS and everyone kept telling him to shut up because he was gonna jinx it. After the second time they blew it I literally had to stop like 5 dudes from kicking this guy's ass.
After the game I cleaned up the bar in stunned silence, then went home and stared at my bedroom wall for like 3 hours
>>68485147
>coworker started screaming and cheering, she didnt even like sports but she was glad our hometown team lost
I hate faggots like that. My cousin's husband was born and raised in the DFW but always cheers for the other teams... He's one of those faggots that never shuts up throughout the game and always rubs it in when the Dallas team is losing and never stops talking shit about Dallas teams any time sports are brought up.
>>68485147
i was at my parents, i actually cried
lmao i actually did, last time ever for sports too
>not being able to close this out
>>68485221
We all cried a little that day
>>68485147
I was a freshman at A&M. I was at this upperclassman's dorm I had my victory shot poured. I'm getting sports tears just thinking about it.
>>68485147
Watched it at home with my dad, had my celebratory Facebook status all ready to post the second Feliz threw the third strike that never came. The second Freese's ball landed in the stands my dad shut off the TV, and we both went to our rooms without saying a word.
>>68485147
>one strike away twice in the same game
I stayed in to watch the game instead of going to do something with my gf at the time (now wife) and her friends. That one fucking hurt. It was probably made worse for me because I grew up close to but on the Cards side of where it shifts from primarily Ranger fans to primarily Cardinal fans, so a lot of friends and people I grew up with were thrilled while I was crushed.
and this is exactly why the Rangers will not win the World Series
>>68485218
Lel
>this fucking thread
What ever happened to Feliz?
>>68485216
Every time I read some faggot on here making some incoherent argument I picture Corby typing on the other end
>>68485220
I used to work with a guy like that, nothing more annoying. He claimed to be a "fan of players, not teams"
>>68485307
a fan who is not loyal to a team is no friend of mine.
>>68485307
what a homo
sounds like a typical basketball fan, though.
>>68485147
Such a wide array of emotions in that game. I was left cursing with my face in my hands and tears in my eyes. I'd never wish that feel on anyone.
what dumb spic keeps blowing that fucking whistle?
>>68485297
I fucking hate him, Ogando and Cruz
>>68485307
>"fan of players, not teams"
those people should be hunted down and shot
>>68485297
Fucker is with the Pirates. Watched him blow the fuck out of a game the other day.Fuck Neftali.
>>68485334
Seriously, fuck Cruz.. I hate that faggot so much.
gg rags
thanks for the tears and blog posts
>>68485297
hopefully dead. 2011 was his rookie year and he was a total badass
after it was one strike away he was never the same, not even close
>>68485334
>when Brogando became Ohgodno
>>68485342
>tfw used to think he was the next Pedro
>>68485334
that shit wasn't Feliz's fault. They were playing no doubles defense and Cruz still managed to misplay the ball, and was too fucking fat to make up the distance. That literally was a routine fly against that defensive alignment and Cruz bungled it beyond belief.
Every fuck up after that was Feliz being a mental midget though
GG Oakland, see y'all tomorrow
>>68485350
Feliz came up in 09 you caz
>>68485359
cruz can burn in hell
>>68485377
I love how he gets boo'd every time he comes up to bat at Globe Life.

Gg, not that mad anymore that my gf made us leave in the 6th due to her hemmerhoids acting up
