  Where is the groan button?

 

I love Bad Jokes!!! 

 

You can't be in a bad mood and tell a bad joke. 

 

The very attempt at a bad Joke says that the world is just fine. 

 

Therefore... I love Bad Jokes!!!

Kyle Gibson announces his presence with authority.

Thanks. I needed that.

 

I may technically get old, even act responsibly. But i'm not sure i'll ever be groan.

Yeah, I tell bad jokes all the time to my lovely wife, just to try to make her laugh. She never does. Sometimes I get a grimace. Triumph!

[Riverbrian]

 

I have a question for you guys: Is Ervin Santana known for being a troll?

 

I don't know

 

However... I gave him a ride home once... I crossed over a bridge... And He Jumped out and said thanks for the ride.

  Yeah, why is it my friends think I'm hilarious, my wife, not at all.

Greene found his groove. Might be a pitchers duel this afternoon

The picture on my TV just froze in the middle of a replay of Sano's homer. He was SMILING in the middle of the swing. Happy swing!

Obviously you are in a good mood.

 

Anyway, the reason I asked is because I left a comment on Facebook that really pissed some Royals fans off. They dug me up on Twitter and were having fun tweeting about my idiocy. Ervin Santana immediately followed me on Twitter, and I wasn't even following him. I would assume that he has a fair amount of Royals fans followers still .... I just wondered if he's a troll.

Don't know either... But then, one could fill a klein bottle with what i don't know. Least i think so. I don't actually know.

Attrition

[formerly33]

For some reason I just feel like posting this. I bet no one watches it.

Now let's hear someone say "I did!"

 

Now I won the bet.

Berrios just picked off a runner at first in the Futures Game

As the Duke said:

 

"Yes, and toffee in moderation is a capital thing. But to live on toffee - toffee for breakfast, toffee for dinner, toffee for tea - to have it supposed that you care for nothing but toffee, and that you would consider yourself insulted if anything but toffee were offered to you - how would you like that?"

[Jham]

If Gibson can keep K-ing like this, he becomes potentially elite...

  I guess I wouldn't.

In all seriousness... That's why I'm a believer in respect for the players(and us normal folk) when we discuss on TD. 

 

Those guys are connected socially just like the rest of us. They are human's just like the rest of us. 

 

Saying a player sucks can go right to the guy who is fighting for a career. It's more important to them then it is to us and when we attack in a vicious manner... It's just piling on unnecessarily. 

 

I'm pretty sure the players know how to Find TD and I think they find it often.

Was that in "True Grit" or "Sands of Iwo Jima"?

He follows a lot of people on Twitter. He must have seen you tweet something about the Twins and then decided to give you a follow. Besides the PED situation I've thought of Santana as a pretty decent guy but, I could be wrong...

Go Rosie!

This leads to the question ... will E-San go home after the game and read the GT?

[twinsnorth49]

He can stay for awhile imo.

[DiscGolfer]

Time for a big inning, Greene has had problems getting past the 5th

[twinsnorth49]

Ok Hicksie, I've been saying lots of nice things about you.

[Vanimal46]

Thatta kid Hicksy!

Good policy. These are good guys playing the best they know how. And on top of that, I still have a contact high from The Big Comeback two nights ago.

[Riverbrian]

Hicks is looking like a Pro!!! I don't think he's going back down

[mikecgrimes]

Triples are better then homerun when the next batter does that.

[Jham]

Hey!  Always like seeing back-ups who can bunt, as they are often asked to do so!

[spinowner]

I'm developing a nitpicky pet peeve. Baseball people, of all people, should be better at pronouncing hispanic names. In Spanish, s is pronounced s. Z is pronounced z. S is not pronounced z. Rosario is pronounced Rosario, not Rozario.
