Same bull, different day
Posted by Geoff Baker
Yes, yes. I know it's not your typical bull. A bison, in fact. I'm actually up in the North Cascades for a few days. Flew home from Dallas yesterday and drove up here. Noticed that the blog had not been updated and that some of you were coming up with some rather interesting conspiracy theories (thanks for letting me out of the locked closet, Lee). So, here you go. An update thread.
The Mariners have added Jake Woods to the roster, filling the spot vacated by Arhtur Rhodes. Yes, that Woods, remember him? Just the lefty all of you were expecting, right? He's still only 26. I'll give you one thing, this team may do stuff we don't agree with. But it sure isn't predictable.

I humbly accept my appointment to the Jose Guillen Society. I will fulfill my duties with all the hard work and dedication that is required of the job. ;)
Geoff, what are you holding there??

Ha, you were with Erica up in the woods. Knew it. Glad you added a thread, Geoff. Some posters were going a little insane not having new material to feast on today. Acting giddy. A couple even tried defending this organization. Shows how crazy it got!

Wow, is he trying to milk the Mariner Moose in this photo? Censors viewed it yet?
I saw the real Jake Woods play for the Denver Bears of AAA days. He was probably one of the best I watched. Tim Raines, Bobby Richardson, Marv Thronberry, and others made triple A ball lots more fun to watch than this team of bumbling fools.

I was wondering why Dave Valle didn't want his name included on the Jose Vidro Society list?

Do you really think he qualifies?

You'd think Geoff with a horny buffalo would get more hits. I'm disappointed in those who frequent this blog. :(
