1. On Game threads... We never announce topic shifts... We just shift.

2. Truck Nuts... Someone invented and someone is buying it. America is the land of opportunity!

[Riverbrian]

Why? I mean, seriously, why?

[twinsnorth49]

What self respecting redneck doesn't have truck nuts? I mean....C'MON!

[twinsnorth49]

I kind of like this alternating HR, SO thing, great strategy if you ask me, very entertaining.

"Oversized multi-colored imitation testicles to advertise that your vehicle is driven by a manly-man" doesn't have the same ring to it.

Every run in the Chicago series was the result of a home run. It appears this trend continues

[Riverbrian]

Why? I mean, seriously, why?

 

Over time... The people who shop on... Rodeo Drive... for example... Over time... The same old choices to spend your money on start to wear thin and something new needs to be introduced.

 

Truck nuts are for that bored Rodeo Drive crowd.

They work better in Canada, I have a BB10, no speed issues.....could be a Grand Forks thing, maybe?....Probably.

In honour of Andrew Albers I'm drinking a Pil for every SO and perfect inning......that's loyalty, believe me!

Grin... You could provide a great service to the game thread... You could be our down on the farm reporter.

 

We need one... The format would be simple... Come up with a sounder and fill us in.

 

Something like this...

 

"Dun Dun Dah... Reporting from down on the farm... I'm Grin... In New Britain... Alex Meyer has thrown 5 innings of shut out ball against Lehigh Valley. Meyer has struck out 8 Iron Pigs with one hit allowed. Reporting Live from Conneticut... I'm grin"

 

Something like that.

Thats Right... It's Canada... It's a Kilometer thing. Of course it will be faster in Canada.

Chicago must have a version of Rodeo Drive?

I have never seen these in the road, but after googling this I believe you. Now I am wondering if I could make money creating and selling truck vaginas.

[Squirrel]

Sure. The Mag Mile. That's not where I saw these

I live one block from Rodeo and the dog and I walk it often, mainly for the scenery. However, I have never seen any truck nuts in the windows.

I'm no marketing expert, but I'm thinking the truck crowd might not be your target audience.

 

Mazda Miata, maybe.

Sorry Glunn... Dodge beat you to it.

Finally. Like I have always suspected. Glunn the Pimp enters the scene.

Actually he was born in Illinois.

 

On September 9, 1942, Albert enlisted in the United States Navy and was discharged in 1943 to accept an appointment as a lieutenant in the U.S. Naval Reserve. He was awarded the Bronze Star with Combat "V" for his actions during the invasion of Tarawa in November 1943, when, as the pilot of a U.S. Coast Guard landing craft, he rescued 47 Marines who were stranded offshore (and supervised the rescue of 30 others), while under heavy enemy machine-gun fire.^[5]
