Game Thread: Twins v Angels, 9/4 @ 7:10pm CT

[Squirrel]

Wow, I rarely frost brownies (too sweet) but always but in nuts.

I never frost them either. But I never put nuts in them. But I've had them frosted with nuts on top of the frosting. Not my preference but it's okay.

[Thegrin]

Come on Kennys.  Now is the time for another long fly

[USAFChief]

To be honest, if someone gives me a brownie, I won't complain if it has nuts, doesn't have nuts, is frosted, isn't frosted, has ice cream on top, or doesn't have ice cream on top.

[Squirrel]

I also like my brownies on the dense, moist chewy side. If they are too cake-like, just make cake instead.

Now, Kennys, now!

Brownie goop = Brownie, with nuts, with Vanilla Ice Cream, with Chocolate syrup, with whipped cream, with a cherry on top

[Riverbrian]

You can put his in mine.

You guys are nuts

[USAFChief]

Sch-eye-zah.

Did you forget the whipped cream? (And that combo is way over the top for me and I like sweets.)

[Craig Arko]

No nuts and no frosting.

Make mine a double.

[Riverbrian]

I'll put ice cream on anything.

 

Ice Cream on a ham sandwich... I'd try it.

[JB_Iowa]

I did forget the whipped cream and couldn't edit fast enough.

 

This was a college thing .... many many years ago.

 

 

For like 25 cents.

 

 

 

But every once in awhile I recreate it.

The things you find on the internet, sadly - not quite a brownie and thankfully not a ham ice cream sandwichhttp://www.thatstwinsbaseball.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/jmoaercook.png.

From some of the posts here, I am not sure that it is just nuts in them brownies?

Where's Willi? He's the ice cream correspondent.

 

Brian, favorite ice cream and flavor?

I think most of the posts are done by people NOT under the influence of a controlled substance, which might be a little scary or unsettling when you think about it.

[JB_Iowa]

Okay, I've got to take the dog out (and various other things).

 

Enjoy the rest of the game ..... I expect y'all to bring the Twins back.

I've become partial to Gelato. I like it creamy and lacking air.

 

Caramel is my favorite flavor... I like Coffee when I'm getting crazy but every single flavor trips my trigger.

 

There is only one flavor I don't care for... Mint.

While firing Gardy is defensible, I don't think the day-to-day line-ups are fireable offenses.

If the Twins come back when she is gone. I'm just saying... Ya know.

After HR gets done checking it out... Nothing is a fireable offense anymore.

[LaBombo]

Hicks was actually the Twins' first-rounder in 2008, Trout was picked in '09. Twins picked Gibson that year (two picks before Trout), so your point stands...

Knew that Hicks and Trout weren't in the same draft, but had forgotten that Gibson was the guy we picked ahead of him.  Double bummer but good info.

 

A bunch of other teams passed on Trout, and that's not my beef with the Twins.  It's that we've been told for four years that Hicks is the second coming of Mickey Mantle, but found out after two bombs in the majors that he's not only unsure which side of the plate to hit from, but can't track a fly ball with two hands, a flashlight, and voice GPS.

[Riverbrian]

Blown hit and run and it works out.... LOL...I love baseball.

TD once again comes through by providing the effects of substance abuse without the consequences...

[stringer bell]

Gibson with five scoreless innings (out of six).

Could you imagine if we were. It would either go off the rails and take everything in its path down... Or... become extremely lucid.

Miracle won 5-1

[Squirrel]

HOME RUN!!!!!!

[Willihammer]

What if they had a game thread and nobody came?  Gardy is giving Nuñez another game.  I think that is a good move.

Good call
