Game Thread: Twins @ Royals, 6:15pm CDT 9/29/2016 AD

Once more into the breach!

 

The good thing about baseball is that there is another game to try to win. We got 2 1 run losses in a row. But tonight is a new night. Anything could happen.

 

Oh by the way. I turn jinxes off a few weeks ago. It didn't seem to matter. I tried to turn them back on today, but i'm not sure i got it quite right. Can you help me figure out what's wrong?

 

And yeah, this is the time to try new material, if your working on jokes. Or curtains.

 

Or if you have something to figure out, that has nothing to do with baseball, sometimes a good distraction helps.

 

Apparently today is coffee day. I have heard adverts for both McDonalds and Dunkin Donuts says something, mixing the words free and coffee about.

 

I'll be around sporadicly. Maybe i'll chime in. Someone asked about a song i played, and i didn't answer... I am not always the best at following up on things. Sorry.

 

Anyway play nice, and don't forget to come in when the streetlights turn on!

Thanks SSOO! Game threaders everywhere appreciate all your great work this year.

[twinsnorth49]

Going to the Jets-Wild pre season tilt tonight...........thank God hockey's here.

[Platoon]

Yes! Anything can happen. Tonight we might lose by two!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Thanks SSOO! Game threaders everywhere appreciate all your great work this year.

You're welcome!

 

And of course, i'm using the royal you... er, i mean the plural you. Y'all, or ye... Vosotros?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Yes! Anything can happen. Tonight we might lose by two!

If lose we must, i certainly hope we lose before two...

 

Too.

[Craig Arko]

If lose we must, i certainly hope we lose before two...

Too.

Tutu?

[Platoon]

U mean before two, also! .

[sampleSizeOfOne]

U mean before two, also! .

That as well.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Tutu?

You can say that again...

 

Tutu twain.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Polanco and Grossman got on, but alas the boppers didn't...

[twinsnorth49]

History in the making tonight folks.

[Platoon]

We start out 0-3 RISP. Only 24 more to go.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh well.

 

Check in at another rest stop...

 

Keep it up!

[Platoon]

It's maybe just me, but I feel even GT regulars are starting to fade. It's up to us to keep the faith to keep a stiff upper lip, to .......... Ah what's the use.

[USAFChief]

Son-of-Sal with a two-out RBI single.

 

Is there no end to the humiliation?

I think the phrase you were looking for was "have a couple stiff drinks." 

[Platoon]

Has anyone, everyone saw the video of the ND heckler sinking the putt at the Ruder Cup practices? I don't know how to load it here.

RB's from ND, no?

 

hmmmmmmmmmmm

[Linus]

Another jekyll / Hyde performance from Gibson. I don't believe they should give up on the guy but they should definitely not count on him for anything other than 5th starter

[Platoon]

We handle the ever dangerous Whut Merryman with ease, squelching the rally, for now.

Dick pleased that the Twins have apparently sunk to congratulating each other for warning track fly outs. If the season were 182 games they'd be high fiving each other for getting their uniforms on before it was over.

 

I guess the good news is they're still able to muster enthusiasm about... something, at least.

I'll take my share of the blame, for switching to a cheaper laundry detergent. Made some bad choices with ironing too, come to think of it.

Supermarket after-hours conversation:

 

broccoli:  "I look just like a tree."

 

mushroom:  "I look just like an umbrella."

 

walnut:  "I look like a brain."

 

banana:  "No comment."

It was fun, honest. Honestly honest.
