How do you want me to start that conversation? "Excuse me miss, hate to bother you, but are you by chance a fan of the rich, handsome Minnesota Twins fans and bird watching? If so, I know the perfect guy for you!"

try it that way.

[DaveW]

I don't know, whad'ya think, jaimedude2, wholesale lineup changes?

 

What does that even mean?

LOL

 

Oh GOD... Please do that

 

Do it right now and let us know how she replies

Quick learner. You'll have the ladies flicking to you in no time.

Don't bring up the Twins. Just go with the birdwatching. Tell her I saw a Brown Creeper today.

Basic balsamic glaze for wings:  1 part balsamic vinegar, 1 part OJ, add some brown sugar and simmer till reduced by about half.

Wow. I'm pretty sure you meant flocking, but this is an all time great typo.

[nicksaviking]

Hmm, unfortunate typo.

[Platoon]

Speaking of that, people from Texas are SERIOUS about their meat for grilling. I have been ripped on by my friends for not bringing over steaks/brisket/sausage that's the size of my torso.

I had some barbecued brisket in a little hole in the wall south of San Antone that was too die for. That comment will be the last, and only positive one

I have about Texas!

[Aggies7]

Ugly ugly ugly

[DaveW]

Wasn't Gibson supposed to be the one sure thing about this rotation this year? Very poor outing for him.

[Riverbrian]

I wouldn't even hesitate. 

 

I'd have already started this conversation.

That sounds amazing.  Someone needs to organize a 1st annual Twins Daily BBQ.

BREAKING: As I walked to the restroom, what do I see in the gym? Well, my friends, it appears to be a yoga class with a group of 10+ young professional aged women. I may be reaching here, but this class may be ending in the next 10 minutes. If they walk by the pool, we may be cooking with fire!

There are no sure things when it comes to this rotation

[Platoon]

The charcoal grill is warming up... Pool update: pretty disappointed with the lack of activity. I was hoping to see more ladies getting some sun on a Wednesday evening. There's a middle aged woman in a 1 piece bathing suit reading a book. She's a little beyond my age range. Good looking though!

I can think of more things for women to get sun on, than a Wednesday evening!

These are the worst penthouse letters I have ever read.

there are letters in penthouse? :-) And it still exists?  Playboy is gone...

[Richie the Rally Goat]

The bullpen is going to be shot by the end of this game. Really needed Gibson to go 6-7 innings at least.

yeah, and it's a weak bullpen to begin with. Maybe Meyer or Burdi gets called up quicker than we thought

[ashbury]

I walked away for a moment, when the score was 5-1 after the double, and when I came back the score was 4-1. What happened?

[Winston Smith]

 

She'a actually very nice

 

I assume that Chief has a ton of money

 

It's the only thing that explains it. 

Mail order from Russia!

Looks like you picked the right day to start sniffing glue.

[Aggies7]

The twins are 9-18 in season opening series games since 2008

You misread the score?

They have a lot of Lone Star Flags flying about the place. 

 

If you drive through Indiana for example. You don't see many whatever that is on their flag. 

 

[LaBombo]

That kind of common sense might fly out in the real world, buddy...

You are in the eastern time zone

 

Give it an hour

I buy it for the pictures.

Can confirm this is true. Hell, I think I've noticed the Minnesota state flag once or twice in 23 years living there. You can't escape the Texas state flag down here.
