It stands for Get Out Mariners, you Suck. They used to say GOMYS but it wasn't quite as catchy and the Y was dropped. You say it when you actively dislike them. It's why mostly Mariners fans say it - they are a well documented group of masochists.

I don't think anyone said that? I get wanting to feel vindicated but no one was saying Julio peaked at 22 years old.

It was a rough first half of the year. Kudos to him for adjusting to how pitchers were pitching to him and kicking rear end lately.

The Julio contract will go down at the worst in MLB history.

On a completely unrelated note I find it hilarious that the Mariners poster kept receipts of the three people who said something even slightly negative about Julio in May. This is not the got 'em take you think it is!

Please do not use posts as evidence for anything, tia.

I demand that your avatar from now on is a picture of your 99 OPS+ Julio post. It should be a badge of shame you have to carry until the end of time.

Yainer Diaz has had a fantastic rookie campaign and he's maybe gonna finish 5th.

This is gonna be an incredible class of players.

This is the funniest poo poo Ive ever read

I don't live down there, how is that This Is It pudding

I will always appreciate Baker leading the Astros through a very difficult time which culminated in the 22 title.

It's time for him to retire. Ride off into the sunset champ!

I am beyond thrilled that Brantley has come back the way he left - elite hitter.

I’m beginning to think the Astros could do some damage in the postseason this year.

Man Pete Crow-Armstrong is a hell of a prospect - and he came from the Mets too! Oh well, I'm sure the Mets got a few years of tremendous value from a player for such a top tier prospect.

I guess the Cubs won't re-sign Bellinger after all. PCA's like a legit 80 grade CF defender yeah?

Yeah I think you misread his comment a tad bawfuls.

I mean it's disappointing the 2019 Astros didn't win the WS because that was the best team of this era but we also got '22 so :shrug: .

He might've been talking about me but I am not an Astros fan and in fact as a neutral was rooting for the Nats

Yeah I don't think any non Astros fan is gonna be heartbroken if they miss the playoffs. It's natural when a team has been this good for this long (even ignoring the 2017 stuff).

Whatever he didn't hit him or anything (which is hosed and I've always hated pitchers retaliating that way). I've no problems with it.

Edit: I'm obviously biased but taking a step back I'm pretty positive I'd have the same opinion regardless.

Kirios
Jan 26, 2010




Yeah but you see that stuff all the time in the NBA and NFL and no one blinks an eye at all. Again, as long as it's not getting physical it just doesn't seem like a big deal. It's childish I guess but whatever - if anything you'd think Mariner fans would love it because clearly their young superstar is getting under the skin of their hated rival.

Kirios

Edit: Nah, I take it back. I've said my peace and honestly it's not a big enough deal to dwell on. Feel free to disagree.

Kirios
Jan 26, 2010




Yeah but usually multiple offenses - they'll get warnings unless it's really blatant.

But if Neris got like a game suspension or whatever (probably the equivalent to a T for a reliever) I wouldn't be upset with it.

Kirios
Jan 26, 2010




Look dude I get poo poo all the time IRL from Mariners fans, even with my family, for wearing Astros gear (I've gone into detail in the past, not gonna do it again). But I don't take it out on the Mariner posters here STAC.

Hate the Astros, hell you'll be joining 28 other fanbase. But why take it out on people here, especially when what Intruder said was pretty mild, and honestly...a fair criticism.

Kirios
Jan 26, 2010




Yeah I figured you’d understand that to an extent, being a Yankee fan. So I’d only ask that you try to have some relative perspective on this stuff.

You’re better than mcmagic. Don’t be like him.

Dude if I gotta hear about the Pujols home run off Lidge for the rest of my life then I sure as hell will bring up the Yordan home run.

Remind me, where exactly did the Astros finish that year? I can't quite remember.

I’m still proud of the Rangers and happy with the season, but I kind of wish they hadn’t celebrated last night when there was still work to be done.

But anyway, I guess their claim to a share of the AL West title is as legitimate as TCU football’s share of the 2014 Big 12 title.

Astros didn't really celebrate at all yesterday and it does kinda show the difference between the two teams.
