I used to landscape in this kind of weather only 15 degrees warmer; you would go into the outhouse to take dump and the water would literally trickle off of your chin into your pants.

I found lowering my pants prior to the dumping helped with that problem.

Would you cry at my funeral?

If there were raw onions, yes.

Poetic use of initials.

[Rigby]

Had something to add but got distracted by Tom's picture at the bottom of the page. Thought I had wandered onto 7th Avenue during the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade....

If I had not done that it would have just dripped on the floor, but something else would have dropped into my pants,  or do you take dump while standing up.?

[wabene]

Well ladies and gentlemen we might have ourselves a real live homegrown starting pitcher.

You can eat them. But you would then suffer the consequences of your actions.

It is possible that those around the Squirrel would also suffer in some manner.

I just want to know how his chin sweat ends up dripping into my pants.

[RpR]

Arraez's running style looks awful similar to Astudillo.

Ober releases 52.5 feet from home plate due to his length.

 

Remind me again how many warning points I get...............

They are fellow countrymen ... maybe it's something in the Venezuelan water

We don't judge.

How many do you want?

[RickOShea]

When Astudillo was a kid, he would play second base in pickup games.  He'd would lay perfectly still, even when they slid into him.

Some of us do ... 

[Linus]

Obers mechanics are very simple and straightforward. I’m guessing that is why he is consistent in the zone. 

[RpR]

Simmons bounced that one to first; I have seen him throw hip high strikes to first with both feet off of the ground and this one was just a plain throw .

I wonder if he has some problems he is playing through.

Must have been having a BYTO flashback...

Were you Rigby there? But then OldLady's have a tendency to not have good memories

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I am glad we are done making "Ober" jokes....

[Squirrel]

I miss Cruz ... ?

Think so but I really can't remember. (Not so) premature senility..

[Squirrel]

@RickOShea ... did you do your unjinx dance yet?

[ashbury]

Do our pitchers ever do better immediately after a Wes Johnson chat on the mound?

[RickOShea]

It's okay.  At least we have his memories and wads of gum strewn all over Target Field.

[wabene]

Twin killing!
