Game Thread: Twins @ Mariners, 4/26, 3:10 p.m.

Yeah, that's a very fine user error excuse.

 

"the Sanatan error"

 

SCOREBOARD!

[USAFChief]

The first one was better.

[ashbury]

The first one was better.

Yeah, guilty of indecision. So I went back and put up both.

 

"This. Could. Be. Epic."

[USAFChief]

 

Couldn't stay awake last night. Reading last night's thread and box score, I was pleasantly surprised to see that we scored five runs after two outs. Dogs and cats are sleeping together.

 

Oh, also a favor to ask of the tech savvy mods: Could you put art in the circle thingy of some circus scene or Mickey Dolenz (he was Circus Boy on the TV show in the 1950s) or Charlton Heston from "The Greatest Show on Earth." If not possible, that's fine. I'll pay whatever you want.

Who'd we add?

[USAFChief]

Just noticed there's an article on Viking's Journal, "Which linebackers fit the Vikings model?"

 

Sounds like as good a punch line contest as any...go for it.

[glunn]

Another nice setup today.  Now we need to win the game.

Chief's ultra-helpful flippancy aside do you mean the photos some users have for their accounts? (E.g. my Haight-Ashbury street sign?) You can do that yourself if you want.

• Locate some suitable picture you like, for instance via a Google image search.
• Mouse-click the URL of the picture (usually has JPG or GIF as the file extension) to copy, to paste later.  (Or, you can plan to just type the lengthy URL by hand when the time comes.)
• Then in another window go to your TD "My Settings" page by clicking on your username near the top of most TD pages. Near the top of General Settings you should see "Change my photo...". Click that.
• Enter the URL from above into the form. Click Done.
• Check any page where you have posted, to see how it looks.
• Admire.
• Wait to hear murmurs of admiration from others. (And keep waiting, and waiting...)

I liked it, JB, but I have to admit I have no idea why.

Bring on the 'hawks.

Yeah...by the third one I got it.

[JB_Iowa]

So glad to see that the Wild overcame the mumps.

[JB_Iowa]

I just wanted CB to have a few options.  I like the Corky with the elephant better than Dolenz.

[JB_Iowa]

I cannot believe that the Pelfrey game the other night went by so crisply and this one seems slow as molasses in the wintertime.

[formerly33]

Did I hear correctly that that SO (a while back) was Gibson's first?

[JB_Iowa]

Next he'll be bringing Rod Stewart back.

[USAFChief]

Maybe, but they'll have to make space.  He's off the 40 man.

[formerly33]

Darn it, I wasn't watching that so I can't know what to say.

Did you notice my pics in 'Draft Town rising'? And my new avatar is also compliments of a bus stop ad for the NFL draft

Nah...He's got four already this year.

Then maybe you can assist Circus Boy.  He seems to be a little technologically fearful.

 

I did notice your avatar and I like it.  Haven't looked at the Draft Town thread.

[ashbury]

Yeah, by the third one my browser finally caught up. Running the game at the same time as I do Google searches seems to be more than this laptop can manage.

Whoa. Just whoa. What else can I say? "Is that a lot or something?" But you probably don't want me to pretend to be stupid. That worse than actually being dumb since if someone really is, at least you can feel sorry for them. But if they pretend to be...well, maybe they just are.

//channeling Mrs John//And just exactly what were we Google searching for, hm?  hhhhmmmmmm??

[USAFChief]

I stand corrected...I believe Gibson is up to 6 now for 2015.
