Game Thread: Brewers@Twins 6/4 7:10PM

[Riverbrian]

My wife wasn't planning any trips, and doesn't read TD, and somehow she's already on her way.

 

Chief and I are also coming. You might as well start shopping now.

[Beezer07]

Atta Boy... Set Up and the Space to drive through in a game thread is perfectly played.

 

Thanks, I've been working on it. Next step is not taking credit for someone else's joke ex post facto.

[longstrangetrip]

That might have been the greatest way to cross the plate in the history of baseball!

Danny Ford wants you to give him a call, dog...

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Oswaldo Arcia: fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, won't get.. Won't get fooled again

 

(looked bad on two curveballs then lined the third curveball for base hit)

[ashbury]

I thought about specifying which city in Virginia, but I was worried I'd deprive someone of a joke like this

 

You set 'em on the tee. I take a whack.

[LaBombo]

Did Willingham just do a somersault slide into home?

 

More like half somerault and half Dizzy Izzy wipeout. Blaming Brewer roadblock.

Arcia with a rope RBI single to right, scoring Hammer from second, who was safe but it didn't matter because the HP ump called interference on the catcher for coming up the line to field the throw.

 

phew...that's a lot to type quickly with just two fingers.

 

It was better than that. It was the Pitcher... Just la de da-ing across the baseline into Willingham.

[ashbury]

This is so great. I miss watching this team kick burro.

 

ftfy

That's totally understandable, given that Willi is both tiny and fast. It must be hard to keep track of where he is at any time.

[Gibby]

Chief and I are also coming. You might as well start shopping now.

 

I'm all in, anytime.

[ashbury]

Less meaningful version of that saying: When it pours, it's raining.

 

That one goes right into my plagiar^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hquote file.

Actually joke theft Is strongly encouraged.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What has two hundreds arms, 8 teeth, and smells really bad?

 

How is a tornado like a Kentucky divorce?

 

I profess complete ignorance on both subjects (excepting a poem i once heard about "how to tell a tornado") but in the "every part of the buffalo" spirit, i surmise that the answer to the first question is acceptable grounds for both the items listed in the second question. (Am still trying to come up with a more succinct way of saying that. Now i admit defeat...)

Willingham is quite catlike. In that cats would also be pretty slow running the bases.

Ya la-de-da it out to the mound. Ya la-de-da it covering first. Ya la-di-da it backing up the plate. Pretty soon whattaya got?

[Fatt Crapps]

Seeing Escobar make that play at short, it seems baffling that Gardy wanted Florimon as his starter.

How to tell a tornado what? That it has bad breath?

[Riverbrian]

LA-De-Da-ers

Should I be concerned that I get that?

Huh?

The most athletic lah-de-da'r on the field?

Carnac: Ex post facto.

Ed: Ex post facto?

Carnac: Are you retroactively prognosticating, or just echoing?

Ed: I am merely basking in your wisdom, Your Magnificence. The envelope?

Carnac: What do you get in the mail from your former wife's lawyer?

[Squirrel]

Oh crap. I hate two out walks, hits ... anything that puts a runner on with 2 outs

[D. Hocking]

Actually joke theft Is strongly encouraged.

 

Of course that would require actual jokes...

[Fatt Crapps]

Oh crap. I hate two out walks, hits ... anything that puts a runner on with 2 outs

 

I don't like when the other team hits homeruns. That always grinds my gears.

[Squirrel]

Should I be concerned that I get that?

Yes, very.

You know what the Brewers have on their team? Lollygaggers!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

How to tell a tornado what? That it has bad breath?

 

Tell meaning identification, rather than communication. (As in tell a curve ball from a fast ball)

 

I even remember the first line: "If you do not live near railroad tracks..."

i know how you found this photo.

 

You searched "bitchin' arm tans"

[big dog]

Hey, GoGo only fell over on two swinging strikes in that at-bat. Including strike three. He doesn't get cheated.
