Nope then 153 is the true number. Who would have guessed out of the thousands of people who have played the game, AJ of all people will be #154.

From the same website, here are candidates who are still active at 19 seasons in 2016. Bartolo Colon, Carlos Beltran, AJ, and Adrian Beltre.

Okay, okay, I've grown used to the constant criticism my compositions come under, but of all the things I've been accused of doing, I believe alliteration is the most far-fetched.

Formerly Always! You're back from lurking in the shadows!

That advice was for you formerly.

Formerly, far-fetched?  False, friend.

Weren't they were known as Persia and Mesopotamia when you were there?

King Ebenezer was there too.  Mean dude!

3. Vending Machine falling on you – According to statistics… only two people a year are killed by vending machines in the United States. This makes this a fairly rare occurrence. You know how it works… you want a Milky Way and you put in your money and you push G5 and the thing spins around and stops while the Milky Way hangs on the edge. You have a few choices at this point:

1. Pay for the product again to make it spin around some more.

2. Go find someone with a key and a heart.

3. Walk away and go without.

4. Take a baseball bat to the glass and grab as many Milky Way’s as you want.

5. Rock the machine back and forth until it falls over on you and kills you.

Option 5 is viable but you should know that it is possible that someone will walk past your body and say "Hey Look... a Free Milky Way".

I usually choose option 4.

After Grossman's attempts at the plate tonight, he needs a few days sitting on the bench.

Do you realize you're asking for Santana in LF...?

Attitudes aside, you're heavily overestimating the amount of potential energy contained in this forum.

Did Polanco mis-read a hit and run sign? Or was that all Dozier's idea?

[jimmer]

If AJ can throw you out, you have issues :-)

Not sure about a missed hit and run, but I'm starting to think that Dozier's legs are factory refurbs that had 30,000 miles on them when they were installed. Upper body is 29, legs are 31.

Sigh. Now this thread...

Syria works too...

My answer would have been Kerguelen Island. Tahiti if I wanted to treat myself well.

 

Syria... not so much.

[Squirrel]

possibly.

Um, what?

[Squirrel]

Sigh. Now this thread...

Lol ... I said that very intentionally because I know some of the current discussions in other threads. I may not post all over, but I do try and read as much as I can.

 

I think you and van were the two who caught it.
