Game Thread: Indians@Twins 8/12 7:10PM

[Badsmerf]

Per MLB channel -- Albers now holds the record for Twins pitcher with most scoreless innings beginning with his MLB debut -- a record formerly held by Swarzak.

Ahh yes, I remember his little streak.

This has to go down as one if the oddest game threads. Between this thread, my nephew practicing and me trying to get work done, I think I missed quite a bit of the actual game

 

I got some work done, got some kids to bed, and then turned on MLB TV in time to see a ground ball, a throw to first, and some handshakes. All that's left now is to make a few obnoxious, uninformed comments on the game thread (working on #2) and watch some highlights. I guess some kids need earlier bed times.

Maybe the Twins should think about opening a baseball development camp in Saskatchewan.

 

Us MN fans could drive up to Grand Forks or Fargo' date=' take a canoe up the Red River into Lake Winnipeg, take some water channels or portage into some lakes that lead us to the Saskatchewan River and row ourselves to the baseball camp. My thought is the best place for this camp is where the North and South Saskatchewan rivers converge.

 

Until they build highways in Canada - this seems like a reasonable option.[/quote']

 

I know a voyageur if you need one, let me know.

fantastic start by Albers...and kudos to Gardy for letting him complete the game!

Okay, Glunn. I'll behave.

In honour of the Canadian Albers? I think that spelling is only how Newfoundlanders do it though.

[gil4]

Yer banned

 

YES!! A new record! I got banned while typing only one 3-letter word. (It's been done with four letters, but never with three.)

Will do.

 

I am thinking I will be in need of some beaver pelts sometime soon - so it should all work out.

The life of a voyager

That of a sojourner

Traveling round and round

But not from town to town

Paddles the lakes and streams

Follows his distant dreams

Peace on the waterways

Blue sky and cloudy day

[ThePuck]

Gardy just got done calling himself a dummy saying he probably should have let him finish his first start.

[stringer bell]

National Holiday in Canada tomorrow, I'm not sure I have the power to declare that so maybe just for me.

Only if Morneau homers on the same day.

Dip dip and swing

 

Tu es mon compagnon de voyage!

Je veux mourir dans mon canot

Sur le tombeau pres du rivage

Vous renverserez mon canot

Well, everyone else second guessed him, probably wanted on the bandwagon.

I'm not trying to blow the mood or anything..thought I'd let people know he said that for those who don't watch/get the postgame.

 

Doesn't matter though....he did a great job letting him finish tonite.

Are you trying to build a fake beaver?

Damn it Glunn... you know me too well.

When you wake up in the morning and the light is hurt your head

The first thing you do when you get up out of bed

Is hit that streets a-runnin' and try to beat the masses

 

And go get yourself some cheap sunglasses

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

 

Spied a little thing and I followed her all night

In a funky fine levis and her sweater's kind of tight

She had a west coast strut that was as sweet as molases

But what really knocked me out was her cheap sunglasses

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

 

Now go out and get yourself some big black frames

With the glass so dark thay won't even know your name

And the choice is up to you cause they come in two classes:

Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglasses

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

 

gotye.
