Game Thread: Blue Jays vs Twins 9/8 1:10PM

Tough error for Trevor. Probably makes up for a few "hits".

[twinsnorth49]

Fantastic. Based on what I saw yesterday, I have the Gophs in the National Title game, but I'm not yet prepared to say how much they'll beat Alabama by. I need to see them play Western Illinois before I'll go out on a limb.

 

As much as I like the Gophers, I see the heat may have got to you......either that or senility.

[stringer bell]

I know, right?

 

Actually, I considered not taking the job. I'm reluctant to join any group that would accept me as a member.

Did you pass that line to Groucho in the '30s?

[Squirrel]

Oh wow ... white men CAN jump. White women, not so much.

[stringer bell]

Kind of like Dozier at second base.

[twinsnorth49]

DOZIER!!!! what a catch!

 

Trevor, take notes.

Still making a valuable contribution to society in your retirement years, well done sir.

[stringer bell]

I am on a personal mission to lengthen this game thread. Is Brian Dozier the Twins MVP if Mauer doesn't return this year?

I'm just gonna start writing to you now with all my thread 'complaints'

[stringer bell]

BTW, I hope Dozier gets some RBI and overtakes Morneau for the team lead. Not sure if that will happen.

Thank you sir, but you are making multiple assumptions here, sans any evidence, I'm afraid.

Gotta be, only other guy even worth mentioning would be Perk.

You're right,valuable and being a member of society are broad assumptions.

Just curious ... was there a need for more mods, or replacing someone who is no longer interested in it? (I have no idea who all are mods anyway. It wouldn't really matter if I did, though, I'd still be my misbehavin' self.)

[stringer bell]

Does anyone want to see Clete Thomas play for the Twins in 2014? Doug Bernier? Wilkin Ramirez?

[Guest USAFChief]

As are "still" and "contribution."

[twinsnorth49]

Which one is which? I think Chief is 3rd from left.

 

[ashbury]

everyone over the age of 35 still calls it the Skydome

 

Omit the "the", though.

[Squirrel]

Which one is which?

 

 

I always wanted to be Peggy Lipton. I thought that was a cool job.

Mark De Rosa with two bloop singles, somewhere Vodka Dave is smiling.

The site owners felt there was a need for more moderation. Specifically, in the game threads. More specifically, more moderation of the female posters who habitually hang out in game threads. There was a thought that the current staff couldn't handle the workload those poster(s) generated.

Almost put 'Dave's man crush' in the lineup and then though, eh, some may not get that.

I've been "outed!"

 

Link...take care of this guy for me.

The group is suspicious you agreed so quickly.

[twinsnorth49]

Fans from Andrew Albers home town of North Battleford heading to the game in Minneapolis.

Lol!! That was an awesome response!

[stringer bell]

After watching the stuff that Albers is succeeding with, there has to be a very fine line between success and failure in major league baseball.

3. Toronto sports fans are unbearable.

 

This x 1,000,000.

[ashbury]

As are "still" and "contribution."

 

And "sir".

[Squirrel]

This x 1,000,000.

 

How are they so unbearable? I mean ... they can't be worse than New York or Boston fans (of any sport).
