[Mike Sixel]

As for remodeling, I'll never forget the time I put the level on the board I was working on, over my head, while pounding nails....or the time I blew off part of the screwdriver on the hot light switch....or the time my neighbor called and asked if I could stop working at 1 am, so their teenage daughter could get some sleep before her ACT or SAT....

I hate to insert baseball talk into a remodeling thread, but, is anyone else irritated that Belisle is still with the team? Maybe to a lesser extent, Breslow?

Belisle - absolutely

 

Breslow - not as much

 

Belisle bugs me more because Molly thinks he's a high leverage pitcher.

who was the guy who pitched in the 6th inning because i was shocked he didn't continue to pitch!

[D. Hocking]

 

Welcome aboard! One thing to know: USAFChief is old... I mean, real old. You'll be impressed with his jokes and comebacks to messages such as this! 

 

I believe it has been said he is old even in a geological or archaeological context.

 

I believe the same thing has been said about his jokes.

irritated might be an overstatement, but on the "how emotional are you over anything related to baseball", I give it a 900 out of 1000 or so.

I close my eyes when both are in. A upgrade is most definitely needed.

[Squirrel]

 

I HATE that one. And, I was responding to chief talking about grammar.....otherwise I wouldn't have done that. 

I know ... was just piling on.

I will give Chief this. He was a mere child when his people, the Martians colonized the Earth 175,000 years ago when there planet was in the last stages of dying.

What? You don't like the "Filler Bees"? That's a damn shame.

[Broker]

I live 7 minutes due west of the ballpark. The rain has stopped at my house.

For now ...

Whoooooohooo

 

We are playing ball

[John Kelsey]

I'm 1.4 miles away, no rain here either. 

[Jax]

Won't be able to watch until about 9. Hopefully we have it wrapped up by then.

Yah, didn't dey get dere butt kicked in some to-do up in Fargo dat one time?  

 

You betcha.

[Mike Sixel]

No rain about 2000 miles west either....

[Blake]

Okay, I waited around work for a bit, hoping the draft would start. But no, I am now going to have to wait until I get home.

 

Stupid fashionably late draft.

[Bark's Lounge]

Bummed with the Lewis pick. Either you roll the dice with Hunter or go for the quicker help to the big club with McCay or Wright. So disappointing, unless it saves some $$$ for our other 1st round draft picks. I hope we have our 2012 Houston Astros draft.

I live 60 miles from the ballpark and there's always a dark cloud over my house.

[wsnydes]

On the other end of the spectrum, no rain in section 105 either.

Sounds like he has plus speed with an above avg bat. Not a power hitter, but could be the future lead off hitter for the Twins. Some scouts have him projected as a 20/20 type hitter. Personally, I would've liked to see them take Greene, but I'm not a scout.

They'll be into the bullpen by then. Bring your blindfold. Maybe a cigarette... Firing squad optional.

I was going to make a similar comment. It doesn't seem like they're going to hold Belisle accountable. He's a vet and making a guaranteed $3M, so he's safe even though he's one of the league's worst relievers.

[Ron Burgundy 4 President]

Any former Rubechat members should know that rubechat has been resurrected here.  Over 100 have already joined, seems pretty much the exact same.

[Ron Burgundy 4 President]

Gallardo sucks.  Hopefully the Twins can treat him like the low end pitcher that he is.

[Ron Burgundy 4 President]

Great start.

[Darius]

I hope that error is on Mauer. Go get the ball.

[mickeymental]

when's the next road trip?

[amjgt]

It's clear that Bert has absolutely no idea how the draft works
