Do you ever notice how many things just happen to happen in Monument Valley?

Monument Valley is the name of a pretty cool game.

Yousa gonna change my member title back?

Nope. Best way to have you figure it out on your own. Like teaching you to swim by throwing you in the poll.

[Riverbrian]

what a terrible strategy

It doesn't mean it isn't possible.

[stringer bell]

This looks like a no-chance game again.

When I get thrown into the poll... I tend to skew the data,

Ugh. 93 pitches, 45 for strikes for Gibby

[USAFChief]

[Riverbrian]

Arby's needs a new ad agency.

 

Bo Dietl was bad enough... Munchatation Situation for a punch line. And now... The joke is the adult male voice on a grandma and child.

I miss the Good Mood Food guy.

[USAFChief]

So far, for the Oakland series, the Twins have more 1-2-3 innings than total baserunners.

[Riverbrian]

I miss the Good Mood Food guy.

He was better.

[glunn]

I would be willing to trade Buxton and Sano to the As for 5 years of Billy Beane and his most trusted staff and scouts.

Glunn...

 

I need to find out... Is this possible strategy?

Yes, to get a higher draft slot.

What really annoys me is they keep switching strategies. Big A in logo, small a in logo. Three different slogans in a year. Pick something and try to develop it. Sheesh.

I don't know about the scouts but Billy Beane hit about .220 for the Twins... Plus you got to factor in... He's much older now.

But the question is, is he tall enough to play small forward...

They keep changing focus groups which is like changing small sample sizes.

[teekz]

No shutout tonight!

[glunn]

I may be totally wrong, but it seems to me that the As do a much better job developing players, especially pitchers, and that Beane is a very savvy trader.

[USAFChief]

We comin'!

[glunn]

No shutout tonight!

 

It's nice to get a mercy run after last night.

[teekz]

It's nice to get a mercy run after last night.

 

Can we get more teams to do that for us?

[USAFChief]

Better make it a mercy six-spot.
