Can we leave Pat Dean in Canada permanently?

He won't pass immigration questionnaire.  

 

Immigration official:  How many runs do you give up in a typical inning?  Pat, "6".

 

Immigration official:  What is you're ERA? Pat, "14"

 

Canadian immigration official:  "DENIED"

"Do you have anything to declare?"

 

Everyone: "we stink"

I liked "at some point, you're going to have to start throwing up some zeroes here"

I thought we've done plenty of throwing out zeroes this year

If Dick talks about the train wreck pitching like it's just bad luck again, I might throw up some lasagna. Does that count?

[Craig Arko]

I said this the other night.  Going to say it again:

 

Imagine how much fun these threads will be when we are in a World Series run...

 

Not delusional.  Just staying positive.

It will be a ghost town.

You can, but you might catch some heat from a particular cartoon cat

[LaBombo]

 

Give in to the dark side of the force, you knob!

 

"I'd kiss ya if I didn't have puke breath, eh?"

 

[Aggies7]

It will be a ghost town.

I highly doubt anyone willing to sit through THIS at THIS point of the season is going to stop watching or caring enough to comment if we were legitimately in a pennant chase. There may be some new faces.

That guy looks like me in my fish house.

[LaBombo]

 

Andrew Albers was warming up.

[Aggies7]

All I know about Canada I learned from "kids in the hall"

[LaBombo]

 

yeah, Suzuki did a 'Great' job of framing that.

 

Even if it's framed as a strike they'll probably just get a plea deal on the appeal to third.

Who framed Andrew Albers?

[twinssporto]

So, how about those Vikings?

[Aggies7]

Yep, looking forward to watching on Sunday from the new place. A little concerned that teddy's (already weak) arm is injured more than they're saying. Especially knowing that old as dirt (for the nfl) shaun hill is the backup.

I may have missed something but is Mauer still on the team?

Sore quads.

 

Yes...bilateral.

Paul Allen says he doesn't see them doing any worse than 13-3, so I'm thinking about leveraging all 40 dollars of equity in my house into a wager on the 'under' with the line sitting at 9.5 at the moment...

Thought I saw him earlier in the dugout but it was just someone who looked very similar

My son told me just now that Vin Scully's first year as a broadcaster, 1950, was Connie Mack's last year as manager. That one year of overlap means that two men have had a presence in Major League Baseball in every year of the modern era. Connie Mack's first game as a player was in 1886 but he had 5 years out of baseball before 1901.

Where did he find those 3 losses? At this time of year he's predicting 15-1 NFC Champs.

Big deal.  Between me and Ash, we've been mods here longer than that.

I think at least one loss was supposed to be when they sit the starters the last three games because they've secured home field throughout the playoffs.

Meanwhile, big AB here for Rosario.

[ashbury]

Who framed Andrew Albers?

Kevin Slowey was Framed!

[Aggies7]

Meanwhile, big AB here for Rosario.

No, I like it better when we ignore the game, seems to work better.

[ashbury]

They could lick their entire hand, Mike Pelfrey style, every single pitch.

I'm kinda partial to Mila Kunis style.

I've always thought she was awesome.  NOW, even MORE awesome!

Well! I've been chastised for far less around these parts! For shame!
