Episode 2.35: New Sort of Deadline Aug 12, 2007

Show notes

The guys come to the end of the road. The NFL commitments are just becoming to much to continue justifying this little labor of love. To the 500 or so who have enjoyed the 188 episodes, Steven and I say thanks for listening and we hope we have grown your love for the Halos. This sure looks like a most promising season being 22 games over .500 in the middle of August usually means a visit to the post-season.

Episode 2.34: Trade Deadline Testiness Jul 29, 2007

Show notes

With the trade deadline looming, Jeff cannot be contained in his frustration at the inevitability of inaction coming from the Angels front office. Not once during tonight’s game was GM Bill Stoneman seen on the phone. Though celebrating a sweep of the very talented Tigers and looking forward to pulling away from the Mariners this upcoming week, all eyes will be on Tuesday at 1:00 P.M. Pacific Time.

Episode 2.33: Best of times or worst of times? Jul 29, 2007

Show notes

Steven and Jeff go at it in their varied assessments of our favorite Los Angeles team of Anaheim. Reviewing the Ervin Santana demotion, Joe Saunders promotion, and Jose Molina trade, there is much to kick around. Steven is despairing over the lack of the long promised bat and Jeff suggests that the mysterious bat may not be out there. They do agree that this weeks homestand will tell us a lot.

Episode 2.32: Breaking the bad mojo Jul 22, 2007

Show notes

All-Star week had its good times and two of three from the Rangers is good enough. Jeff demonstrated that the burning of the part of the reason for the tough times were those Dodgers tickets which I burned last week. Vlad wins the HR contest, Frankie saved Putzz from becoming an All-Star loser. This week we see if Colon and Santana can right their respective ships in Tampa Bay.

Episode 2.31: Why the best record in baseball is not EVEN good enough Jul 15, 2007

Show notes

We find ourselves in a conundrum where we have gone into the All-Star break tied with the Red Sox for most wins (53), but are playing like dookie. Jeff takes some responsibility for things and burns some Dodgers parking stubs he found in the car... just in case that was the cause of the bad mojo. The guys then join the frey with the, “whom am I more angry at, Colon or Santana?”

Episode 2.30: Ignore the Royal distraction behind the curtain Jul 01, 2007

Show notes

Okay, we get swept by the worst team in baseball, but still hit the mid-way point in the season with our best record ever -- despite the ship being all banged up! Me think it could be a lot worse. Could be the Mariners who are red hot and now without a coach (insert Nelson laugh here).

Episode 2.29: Spontaneous combustion seems inevitable Jun 24, 2007

Show notes

So many missing pieces -- injuries and we just keep winning. No one can explain the tear we are curently on, but why ask questions when things are going this well. Next comes a week of games against last place teams. Jeff rants on players unwilling to pay hurt and longs for the old days when a player would have to be practically dead before being forcably removed from the game.

Episode 2.28: Dodgers fail to dodge a beat-down Jun 18, 2007

Show notes

Join the party as the boys celebrate the Angels taking five out of six from the cross-town rivals. The Dodgers just do not stand up to the clearly superior team (heck, Sunday it was our “B” team).

Episode 2.27: We're number one!! Jun 14, 2007

Show notes

Feeling good about having the most wins in the Majors, has the guys in a celebratory mood. We break down our brief visit to Cincinnati and were disappointed that no Bengal was arrested while the Angels visited. Bring on the Dodgers!

Episode 2.26: Don’t want to jinx anything Jun 11, 2007

Show notes

The guys were afraid to do a show because the team is playing so well. Okay that’s a lie, but it is amazing how well the team is playing. Still all banged up, but everyone is doing their part which has the Halos off to the best start in team history.
