New Sheriff in Town

 Then again, that's a borderline negative way to be. I'll take that one back. I'm sorry.

Live long and prosper.

 

And beer if you drink it.

I heard St Peter dug up some Spiro speech clips to teach Park English. Is that true?

If so, he picked a poor method.

...

 

And, I'm all out of gum.

 

...

I think i have found the problem here.

 

Don't worry. I'll bring gum enough for everyone.

 

(Now all i need are them sunglasses...)

 

Yeah, i'm looking foreward to game threads too.

 

Glad to see folk have been honing their wit during the offseason!

How does he not know English? All the extras on MASH at least spoke SOME English? I thought it was the national language.

 

Was that not filmed on site in Korea?

Our success equates to that of Gibson, Hughes, Milone, and May's:

 

 

(Except me, of course, who simply deigned to offer any effort on my part, preferring to be an unnoticed individual in the background rather than the panting subject in the front.)

 

That said, good to see ya, Sample! It's been a long time.

The whole Moderator deal reminds me, what happened to Snepp?

 

And I for one appreciate the realists on TD.

I miss the Master of Snark immensely! There was/is none better ... can't imagine anyone wearing that crown other than him!

 

We've had word from him that family and work has overtaken his time, but all is well.

good to hear that he is doing well, I miss his contributions here as well.

I don't think family and work is a very good excuse!

Lame... I thought Dennis Green was coming to twinsdaily.com

Good point - - they were so detailed and authentic with the early 50's clothes and hair styles you really felt you were in 1953 Korea.  Maybe he speaks with a Winchester Bostonian accent.

 

One of the radio guys (Derek Whetmore?) was saying that he is under the impression that he has a fairly good understanding of English.

We aren't, who you thought we were.

Thanks.

 

I been still habitually reading stuff, i just been too lazy to chime in most of the time.

If we got rid of all the posts irrationally bashing the Twins, we'd just be left with the posts irrationally bashing the White Sox...

Post number 78 in this thread is mine.

Thanks to Alan Alda surely.

[Riverbrian]

Sort of a shish nabob.

I had to stop and admire the simple brilliance of this post.

 

Then I realized that I had stopped and I was getting nowhere.

Except bashing the White Sox would NOT be irrational.

Radio Guys are poor judges of English Language pro fishing tee.

Well, if you recall ChiTown, Snepp went DEEP undercover to investigate Moderator-Gate 2015, and provide insight for the Sunday morning interview on my game thread.... I don't think he's ever been able to recover from that operation.

[Riverbrian]

Thanks.

Like a bear... You have surfaced.

Just wondering Sheriff, if that's a Louisville Slugger hiding under that 10 gallon hat, or are you just happy to see us all?

Nah, I was thinking maybe it's Trevor May. He wouldn't have much incentive to be overly ecstatic to see us all.

Don't be such a nabob of negativity.

You forgot nattering, there's lots of nattering there

 

Edit, Nevermind, I see you figured that out.

[twinsnorth49]

Slow Friday eh?

Unlike the previous 150 days since the season ended.

The Negativity Police put themselves in the penalty box? Is this a major or a minor penalty?

I think we should declare this thread the official "gameday spring training thread."

 

It's got all the needed elements. 

 

Okay, only one real element is needed for gameday threads: weirdness.
