Who, me?

If the shoe fits ...

What is it with all the Viagra commercials during baseball games. You'd think there were a lot of old men watching.

 

 

Nevermind.

 

I'm just glad that there generally aren't political commercials.

 

I watch approximately 1/2 hour of local television a day. And in that 1/2 hour there are always commercials for at least 4 different candidates .... and it is only May 1.

I like the disclaimers...

 

If you're mother in law is coming to visit... Don't take Viagara.

If you are swimming in a race... Don't take Viagara.

[Squirrel]

I found a better walk up song but don't know how to create a link in thread ... how do you do that again? Create a link and replace it with text?

[Riverbrian]

If the shoe fits ...

 

If the shoes fits... That would be impressive.

Omg. NO comment.

That probably has something to do with living in Iowa... Just a guess... But that's probably it.

[LaBombo]

Thoughts on Johnson's start?

 

Reserving judgement until his Kills of birds per Nine isn't such a small sample.

Okay, note to self: don't make comments of a particular nature with Brian around.

[cmathewson]

Another passed ball by Drew, The Greatest Defensive Catcher Ever. Had one last night. Had 11 the year he started 80 games.

[big dog]

All right, let's get this guy out of the game before Mattingly makes the decision for us.

Thats a good list to keep handy. However... It takes a while to comprehensively compile it.

Iowa's part of it (that's why we get phone calls on Christmas Day before the caucuses - geez).

 

This time it's because there are some fairly hot races in Nebraska and Iowa (and I think South Dakota, too but I don't pay that close of attention) and lucky us .... we get commercials for all 3.

 

Blech.

If such a list includes shoes, it is probably too restrictive to be useful...

I suppose negative ads are like dominoes. Once the first one gets pushed over.

[big dog]

Man, the Twins just can't afford to blow an inning when Florimon gets a walk. That's like giving back a Visa gift card.

[Squirrel]

Oh ****

[Riverbrian]

I hate to say it... It was a tough catch... But catchable.

[big dog]

I think Hicks took his eye off the ball- it hit the heel of the glove and popped out. Then Hicks hit the wall and popped down. He went a long way on that.

Funny thing .... not the negative ads yet.

 

But I'm losing count of how many former paper boys are running for office.

 

 

 

Okay, Twins, let's get it together here.

[Joe A. Preusser]

Hicks was not at fault tonight. I'd like to find a way to blame Pelf for tonight as well, but...

Huh...I hate election season(s).

 

The other day I was sitting in a bar, having a cold one. The phone rang, and the bartender went to pick it up. The guy sitting a couple stools down looked around nervously, then told the bartender "if that's a paid political announcement, I'm not here."

[JB_Iowa]

Whewwwww.....

[cmathewson]

Way to strand the runners Tonkin.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Well, no one injured, and only one run allowed. That inning could have gone worse...

[big dog]

Tonkin!!! That's the way to end the inning.

[JB_Iowa]

Tonkin!!! That's the way to end the inning.

 

Will that be his only batter faced?????

[Riverbrian]

Uribe is no Arenando.

[Riverbrian]

I think the Dodgers have reached the Cold threshold.

[Guest USAFChief]

Uribe is no Arenando.

Put down the dilly bars, RB.
