I've missed this game. I know Albers is tossing a shutout...has he looked THAT good?

 

Yes.

If a run scores in the ninth, it is on you. No ban will be too long.

[buckninetyone]

Cowboy Troy? Is that you?

 

hopefully he lost his game of playing chicken with the train.

I'm on my 3rd home ... the first was actually a house ... loved it ... front porch, back patio, big yard, lots of flowers ... the other two have been condos. The first of those was a more unique space, bigger space, but this one has the location, location, location. <shrug> When I retire, I'm moving back to Minnesota and/or Florida. Am buying a condo there, but not sure I'll end up there.

 

I cant wait to get out of Minnesota. I'm hoping my youngest goes to college down south. I'll move in a heartbeat.

[ashbury]

I don't know about that. 4 months of game threads can give a pretty good insight into who someone really is.

 

I for one am hoping that a preacher man will go by the rule "judge not".

[Riverbrian]

All right, compadres, how long a leash do you give Albers in the ninth? Or do you take him out now and let him savor it from the bench?

 

Let him finish... If Gardy takes him out... I'm driving to Kansas City... Flicking him across the nose and going back home.

hey, I didn't even turn on the game..still not watching it. Are you crazy? That's bad mojo :-)

"Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us."

 

Not sure where I heard that, but it sounds familiar.

[James]

I'm not saying no... I'm saying I'll think about it.

[ashbury]

Will Smith be pitching?

[Riverbrian]

Are you asking me to be your wife? RB... I hardly know you.

 

Sure Why Not... Less TV pressure when the Twins are on... It could work out.

[glunn]

Listening to all my friends, I'd say my grass was greener. But there are moments when it's not. I'm okay with either. I'm not one to covet my friends' greener grass, when it is greener. If any of that makes sense.

 

That makes sense to me. I would merely add that in my opinion the most important thing is to take full advantage of all grass that is on your side of the fence.

[ashbury]

"Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us."

 

Not sure where I heard that, but it sounds familiar.

 

Sounds vaguely Zen, is my only guess.

[James]

As long as you bring home enough money to keep the fridge stocked with beer, we could be in business here.

[Riverbrian]

Cue Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes... Or Simply Red for the kids.

 

If you don't know me by now... You will never... Never... Never... Know me.

[buckninetyone]

Will Smith be pitching?

 

*gunshot*

 

that was a warning.

 

sincerely,

pun police

[big dog]

Yeah, and once you've taken full advantage, move the fence.

[Guest USAFChief]

You speak jive?

[Thegrin]

Lots of badly hit ground balls like Deduno gets. Something is foolin' em.

[ashbury]

That makes sense to me. I would merely add that in my opinion the most important thing is to take full advantage of all grass that is on your side of the fence.

 

And if the fence posts weren't sunk all that deeply...?

[IdahoPilgrim]

So how much credit do we give to Albers, and how much to Herrmann?

[IdahoPilgrim]

OK, I gotta question this - 7 run lead, two outs to go - why not let the kid try to finish it out?

[Riverbrian]

Damn it Gardy... Now I gotta drive to Kansas City,

 

i'm sure all be arrested for the nose flicking thing. So if I'm not on the game thread tomorrow... You will all know why.

[Top Gun]

How is our new ace doin?

[big dog]

You speak jive?

 

Ever seen any Turkish prison movies, Jimmy?

[Riverbrian]

"Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us."

 

Not sure where I heard that, but it sounds familiar.

 

And forgive us our Transmissions.

[ashbury]

You speak jive?

 

That honky muf' be messin' mah old lady... got to be runnin' cold upside down his head, you know?

[James]

OK, I gotta question this - 7 run lead, two outs to go - why not let the kid try to finish it out?

Agreed. There's only one out though. It still doesn't change my opinion though.

[Riverbrian]

Yeah Dude!!! That's Righteous!!!

[Squirrel]

So you are buying a Condo in the future and living somewhere else? I gotta admit... You have style...

 

Heh ... my parents have a condo in Ft. Myers, and I will buy it from them when they no longer want it. I could become a snowbird, or move there permanently, or sell it if I decide I just want to enjoy the Minnesota winters.
