We need a moniker for our beloved BP Corps. Suggestions anyone? Ok, I'll start:

NLSEBS: No Lead Shall Ever Be Safe, or nibbles phonetically. I know, its not quite syncing with the acronym, but close enough, like Dobby"s devastating slider that turned a 15 run laugher into a drama. 

Anybody got sonething better than The Nibbles Pen?

In homage to an outfield of our past: The Crushed Souls Patrol.

[Aerodeliria]

I just keep mumbling Josh Hader in my incoherent rants for some reason...

[AceWrigley]

And forwarding all robo spam calls to the Twins hotline.

[RpR]

Time for Baldelli to rationalize the loss again.

This exercise requires creativity, and min seems to be ebbing...

 

Pen o' sesame? Like serving it up on a bun.

So Astudiilo doesn’t hit much, cant really field any position well, cant bunt or engage in situational hitting, has no speed, and is older so he isn’t going to develop. Why do we have him on the roster and, even worse, actually play him? Oh, that's right “positional flexibility”. And the fans love him! Why? Because he’s a fat guy like us! 
 

personally, I love having a chance to win. Astudillo doesn’t help with that. We have to have someone better. 

[RpR]

Why was Coulome pulled?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Anyway, i am hitting the hay.

 

Thanks for the light hearted banter and polite conversation.

Can I sue the Twins if I've developed acid reflux while watching a Twins game?

Yes. Apply a theory of tort for negligent infliction of emotional distress. Best to throw PTSD in there. Surely the trauma of being enticed to watch Twins BP is prima facie evidence of attractive nuisance. Make note of every instance of burn belch or generic flatulent distress.....airtight case...no pun intended

Because without him we would have lost in the 9th, bunky.

Hmmmm . . . just the presentation of evidence alone might win me a big settlement. ?

He wasn't losing the game fast enough.

I've thoroughly enjoyed the comic relief here tonite! The Twins totally peed this one away. Pathetic. They would depress a hyena.

No doubtTD gameday thread community can contribute copiously to a class action suit.

I assume if it worked, the Vikings would already be bankrupt...

Robles has been on the verge of this just about every time he’s been in a save situation. 

That's so true - he never has a clean inning in a save situation. It's always something like strikeout, walk, double, strikeout, walk, pop-out.

Dude's a mess and last night's catastrophe was exactly who he is. At least it saved fans of other teams from watching him implode.
