Not enough j, o, n, r on this phone tonight, clearly..... Plus I am theoretically out drinking and meeting people to network for my wife's business....

Taking a quick break.

 

Keep the throttle open.

I'd be happy to help if only I had any idea what you were talking about.

[Squirrel]

 

Am I just a big jerk for pointing this out, or is this some sort of trap?

 

This was your 1001st post.  Sorry.  You probably got sucked into that Wilks thread.  Like a moth to the flame, it was hard to not have a strong opinion about that transaction.

It was his 1000th post. But he posted since then so his avatar updates in each of his posts to his current number.

Nobody better talk to Hughes in the dugout.

I was patiently waiting for the game thread so I could complain about Mauer starting over Vargas.

Vargas has hit lefties well in his career, while Mauer has not done much lately against them. So Mauer should be grabbing some bench.

You should have seen my anxiety wanting to post about Wilk the other day.

Congrats on 1,000 posts twinssporto! As a reward for achieving this goal, you will be invited to the Twins Daily WORLD Headquarters!

Brock will be waiting for your arrival, and bake a cake for you!

Thank you!  I'm on a diet though.  Can I get cottage cheese or a protein drink?  No carbs.

[D. Hocking]

Sadly I think my 1000th post was in the 2016 season.  It seems like such a waste of an important milestone.

[Pardon My Dinger]

What's jonr?

Garfield's dad, I think? Was that right? That's my best guess.

Why?????

 

[70charger]

Who was complaining about Mauer and Escobar again?

 

Wait...

[Craig Arko]

My 1000th post happened when Chief was still in short pants.

My advice?  Keep the meeting people theoretical, but the drinking factual.

[Joe A. Preusser]

Why?????

 

Dude, it's happening.

Lots of fellas at the old folks home wear those.

Close, it was Jon, but his last name was Arbuckle.

Hope so.

 

[Joe A. Preusser]

What?

I can't say, that's the rule.

[DrNeau]

Nice called ball on that 1-1 pitch, blue. Wow. 

 

[Cap'n Piranha]

 

What?

 

Look at Hughes' pitching line on gameday, and it should be clear.

[Mike Sixel]

I love that there are things here I have no idea what they are.... And yes, that sentence sucks...

[Pardon My Dinger]

Close, it was Jon, but his last name was Arbuckle.

Haha! That was a trap! Now everyone knows you like Garfield! Haha!

[Jerr]

 

I can't say, that's the rule.

What rule? Can you say that????

Ok......
