"OK, Paul, see, we ain't sellin' a lot 'o tickets, see. And I don't see anyways to change that any time soon, see. So I'm thinking...'how ELSE do we sell more nine dollar beers?' and I'm thinking...if they're forced to STAY there longer..."

Maybe they should try free beers? That would be a draw. Obviously can't do that when the Brewers come to town.

[Aggies7]

I know. I was playing it straight to deflect your sarcasm.

Well, I knew you were so I added a winky face

Getting deep around here. My boots is floatin.

 

[Blake]

I caught Dozier going opposite field shortly after Plouffe went yard.

 

Unfortunately, though, Nolasco just had to be Nolasco.

[Aggies7]

Yeah, but Aggies woulda been out the door already, so no beer sold to him.

Please, I'm already a few deep. Can't watch without it

[tobi0040]

3 things = Get to know em

[Squirrel]

we don't get many rhetoricals here...

Pity

[Darius]

I'm more offended that they have two rings in 20 years and nobody gives a turkey about them in miami

Eh, they just have higher standards down there. If a team sucks, there are plenty of other things to focus on. I was in Miami in 2003 when they won they won the Series. It seemed like the entire city was out in the streets. It was like freaking Mardi Gras.

 

I love the Twins and my home state as much as anyone, but I couldn't even imagine it being similar in Minnesota if they were to win it next year, for example. Sure, people would care. Then they'd pick up the remote and flip it to 9 o'clock in time to catch the weather before the confetti finished falling.

For the love of god it's only the 6th inning

 

"Does anyone know...  where the love of god goes...  when the bullpen turns minutes to hours?"

What's a winky face?

[USAFChief]

Nunez;  "Hard to understand in any language."

 

He's Canadian?

[Aggies7]

I'm glad coffee drinking habits are the only thing Nunez picked up from jeter.

 

The guy's been around, is what I'm getting at.

[Blake]

Late to the thread. Our pooch is having a rough time coming out of anesthesia. And she's not exactly a teacup dog, either.

[HitInAPinch]

Hard to understand in any language.   Musta worked customer support line at some point..

You weren't around in 87 or 91 were you? Me ... out in the streets ... whooping and hollering ... until my neighbors called the police.

[ashbury]

Of all the Dickbert-isms, "THREE and oh" is my absolute favorite.

Doesn't he pronounce about three R's in THREE? THRRREE and oh.

[Aggies7]

Stop hitting it to that Prado guy. He plays an evil third base. Almost devilish

[USAFChief]

 

What's a winky face?

Dunno, but he's on second.

Yup.    You can tell by the hiss.

No, that was me just playing innocent to see if he was dumb to fall for it. Guess you did instead.

Just give me a reason.

I can't figure out if you think that's a good thing or a bad thing.

[gocgo]

I just noticed the Twins Hope Week sign in right center.  Did that week pass already and they just didn't take the sign down?

[HitInAPinch]

Ahem, Plouffe again

[LaBombo]

And Joey Giraffe crosses the plate with the go-ahead run!

I knew you've been waiting and waiting for an opportunity to call me dumb. I was more than happy to oblige.
