Article: Game Thread: Twins @ Rays, 8/25 @ 6:10pm CT

It's so quiet in THE TROP (what? A stadium named after an orange juice???) I just heard someone clear their throat.

 

I know, I want to hear the die-hard in Baltimore again.

[USAFChief]

six outs, three runs to play with.  

 

seems doable.

[Hrbowski]

 

That was kind of like nodding off in church, and waking up just in time to say "Amen!!!" without having any idea what you were Amening.

I have never experienced that.

[USAFChief]

 

I have never experienced that.

Me either.  Once I'm out, I'm out.

[Gibby]

 

 

Sounds like the Astros back in the day...

 

That back in the day goes back a long way.

[Hrbowski]

 

Me either.  Once I'm out, I'm out.

I have never experienced that.

[USAFChief]

Better be going 8 tomorrow, Duffey-zee.

[LaBombo]

 

I have never experienced that.

Me neither.    Saw it on the deleted scenes section of 'No Country For Old Men'.

[TwinsCD]

 

Rays broadcast with a little eye candy. 

 

Nice

 

Not only nice to look at but also a real nice girl, overall.  She interned with us a few summers ago.  Unfortunately, I traveled so much during that summer that I didn't get to know her all that well.

[Hrbowski]

 

Better be going 8 tomorrow, Duffey-zee.

Why not nine?

[Gibby]

Those people named their kid after a light hitting first baseman?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Better be going 8 tomorrow, Duffey-zee.

I really hope there's a bottom of the 9th, even if someone else gets the 3 outs.

[Hrbowski]

Nava battles.

[D. Hocking]

 

I remember our first child.  Mrs Chief and I were nervous as all get out.  Right at the 9 month point, still no baby, and a couple days went by, still nothing.

 

Then one night my wife starts shouting "Can't.  Won't!  Shouldn't!!  MUSTN'T!!!!"

 

I immediately took her out to the car and headed for the hospital.  

 

 

...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The contractions had finally started.

 

With these classic jokes it is like Bob Hope never died.  Chief - didn't you help him get his start?

[formerly33]

 

I have never experienced that.

That's because you've never experienced the joys of staying up until the wee hours of dawn. I literally experienced that three times last Sunday ... minus the "amen" part ... still, I gotta seriously rethink my sleeping hours.

[USAFChief]

Bob Hope died??!?

[spinowner]

 

It's so quiet in THE TROP (what? A stadium named after an orange juice???) I just heard someone clear their throat.

I called the stadium and asked what time the game was scheduled to start and they said, "When can you be here?"

[LaBombo]

 

 

Me either.

Neither.    Either.    Let's call the whole thing off.

If you want to post a joke, make it good plz.

[USAFChief]

Jeebus.  May is s'posed to be the dependable part.

[David HK]

Argh-  I keep checking in to this slow-motion slasher film....  So now it's May's turn to suck, and Dunse is up....  Where's the Pepto?

[Hrbowski]

Stat of the Day: This year the Twins are 63-61 in games they should have won.

[David HK]

Wow, do these Rays' announcers SSSSSSUCK!  No time to elaborate, but no need, probably.

[twinsnorth49]

Whew! Didn't like that Trevor.

[Gibby]

I thought you went back to work.​

[USAFChief]

I would not be upset with more runs here.

[formerly33]

From what I've been reading in the news, I was under the impression that we were 61-63 in games we should've lost.

 

I guess I should listen to Mark Twain more often.

When I played sports, I was uniformed.

[TwinsCD]

That's the rookie record breaker isn't it?
