Game Thread: Twins @ Tigers, 4/30 - 6:08pm

I give up. I'm going to put up the avatar of the pretty blonde girl, even though this is not a Win.

 

Your pretty blond girl needs ear reduction surgery.

[LaBombo]

In a similar vein of irrelevancy, may I add that I never could eat another Hostess Twinkie after a co-worker regaled us with tales about his summer job working in their factory where it was 120 degrees inside and the workers' sweat would drip into the vat of cream filling they were mixing?

Only if you have some sort of solution to help us uneat every Twinkie we've consumed in the past.

The blonde girl gets posted as soon as someone guesses this guy's name. Should be an easy one for folks of a certain age.

Twinkles... I love the salty flavor. Are you all saying the salty flavor isn't intentional.

A guy has a talking dog. He brings it to a talent scout. "This dog can speak English," he claims to the unimpressed agent. "Okay, Sport," the guys says to the dog, "what’s on the top of a house?" "Vance Worley in a blender?" the dog tries.

Aaron Neville?

[LaBombo]

This ain't gonna help Worleys numbers.

In the long run, maybe it will. The odds that he's battling an injury are getting greater with each drubbing, and the sooner they figure it out and treat it the better off he'll be.

Winner winner chicken dinner. Don Mossi, widely regarded as the ugliest player in MLB history, it is.

[LaBombo]

Can I un-Like my own post?

I liked your request to unlike your original, is that helpful in any way?

Congrats, you win free tickets to the next Mike Pelfrey / Vance Worley doubleheader.

Mr. Mossi was not touched by the ugly stick, he was beaten with it. I remember seeing him pitch.

Bob Keeshan?

Jo Ann Pflug?

[ashbury]

Aaron Neville?

 

So close. So close.

 

A guy dies and is sent to Hell. Satan meets him, shows him doors to three rooms, and says he must choose one to spend eternity in. In the first room, people are standing in sh*t up to their necks. "You don't need to show me the others. I'll take this one. The next one might be Vance Worley in a blender," the guys says.

First year following the team?

Second prize, of course, being twice the number of tickets.

[LaBombo]

As pointed out on somebody's all time MLB ugly list, Mossi "looks like somebody microwaved John Kerry". He's even uglier in color if that's possible:

But not as ugly as a Vance Worley start, with or without blender.

[ashbury]

OK, gotta go grab dinner. Let me know if the game turns ugly or anything.

[LaBombo]

First year following the team?

The other diagnostic methods have failed the Twins frequently, so I'm thinking an ERA north of 7 may be the last instrument in the doctor bag for them.

No one could tip toe quiet enough to sneak up on him. After his baseball career... He got a job working for NASA listening for new sounds originating from space.

Ashburyjohn... What a dude... Going outside to grab his own dinner... Probably Squirrel or something.

Ramirez and Escobar, neck and neck for 2013 Twins MVP...

Not game related, but, any diehards stay up to the end of the 19 inning A's/Angels game?

Nothing like 4 AB's against Verlander to kill your .400 season.

I would have if I knew it was gonna go 19... Since I didn't know... I didn't

Meanwhile on the bench, Hicksie quietly bides his time, plotting to slingshot past them in batting average, RBI, and hugs from Prince Fielder...

Does getting up in time to inadvertently see the end count?

Don't forget Swarzie!

There wasn't even anybody there to start the game.
