Not watching the game but saw the video of the Twins' second run. Mauer was out at second base. Did a little hip-hop on the pop-up slide and was off the base while the tag was applied. Ump called him safe. Blue Jays should have challenged. Did they?

Yes.

Joe doing a little hip-hop, eh?  Must be getting ready for the post-game dance party.  Shouldn't get too cocky too early, tho...

ChiTown can fix that right up. Add some colons and stuff... large and small colons... she knows them all. 

Large and small colons ... ?

[USAFChief]

 

Gotta love giving two guys the green light on 3-0 in one inning.





LOL

I actually do love it.

You mean the Twins and the Braves playoff for top pick?

They did and Joe was out.

OK... Bert just knocked one out of the park. 

 

Dick: The Population of Fertile Minnesota is 836

 

Bert: You'd think there'd be more. 

 

This will be post of the night

 

Even Dick brought it all the way up to an elevated chuckle. 

[Riverbrian]

 

Large and small colons ... ?

 

Yeah... Whatever that punctuation voodoo she does. 

 

Large and Small Colon... Appendixes... All that stuff. 

 

She is very learned.

I met a McCoy once.

 

He looked real enough to me. 

 

So I just naturally assumed... he was the one. 

I met a McCoy once. He was my dad and my great grandfather.

[Aggies7]

Yes.

I understand it but don't like it.

Found it:

 

"Manly Man Marries Fertile Woman"

 

[ashbury]

Large and small colons ... ?

Colons, semi-colons, and hemi-demi-semi-colons.

[Aggies7]

Arcia. SMH. It's like we get a few runs and feel like we're playing with house money. No effort to build an inning the ol fashioned way.

Arcia bunting.  What a beautiful sight!

Urban Legend... but the Fargo Forum supposedly had the headline... Fertile Woman Dies in Climax. 

 

You also hear it was the Grand Forks Herald and there are some who have added... on the way to Moorhead. 

[David HK]

I swear to God, I retract my earlier Arcia statement.

Come on, guys, play like you at least want to give the appearance you want to win.  FFS.

You Midwest people are bizarre.

No headline writer could resist doing that.

Found it:

 

"Manly Man Marries Fertile Woman"

 

I suppose he also drove her to Climax?

 

 

 

(Climax is a town up near Fargo, people)

It's not even a few.  It's a couple.  A few is three.

That's the one I remember hearing about when I was in college. Had a dorm neighbor from Crookston and another from EGF. Had to be one of them who told me.

Maybe this is just me projecting,  but I'm sensing some hostility on your part toward the bunt when I read between the lines.

I've been in and out of intercourse, PA and didn't stay very long in blue ball, PA

[Pardon My Dinger]

Large and small colons ... ?

Large colon girls help make this rockin world go round.

[twinssporto]

Dick just said the Twins have an 80% success rate stealing bases this year.  

 

I think we're gonna win the World Series next year!!

By You Midwestern People... you mean everybody else... not me... right? 

[LaBombo]

 

 

You Midwest people are bizarre.

 

Yeah,   but we're really NICE!

 

Unless someone calls us bizarre...

I agree, but my wife insists a couple can be two or three. Although if the Kody Brown legal action gets far enough, maybe a couple can be five.

[Mr. Brooks]

It's not even a few. It's a couple. A few is three.

 

...

Not necessarily true.

 

 

Define few: (Merriam Webster)

 

1 : consisting of or amounting to only a small number <one of our few pleasures> 2 : at least some but indeterminately small in number
