Game Thread: Twins@A's 9/19 9:05PM

[ashbury]

My aunt had to quit grad school after a night spent finding out, among other things, that the banjo player's expression of mirth was at best disingenuous, and at worst a mask for lust for adult situations that leaned toward 'outside the norm'.

 

In shorter terms: "Game Thread".

Fellow Mods... If I don't get a Game Thread up by 4PM Central Time tomorrow... That's What... 8AM Pacific Time...

 

If I don't get it up by 4PM... I will be on the road and unable.

 

Could someone start a game thread if its past 4 and absent? Its probably best to assume I won't get it posted but if I get a chance I will. Busy day tomorrow and I gotta see what my pillow feels like.

 

To close with Brahms... Guten Abend Gute Nacht.

You have had a civilizing influence.

 

Yes, well, women tend to do that to men.

[glunn]

Dear Darla, I hate your stinking guts. You make me vomit. You're scum between my toes! Love, Chief.

 

You are her great-great grandfather, correct?

I am thinking that ChiTown has never had the thrill of starting a game thread and making it sticky, and she could have a civilizing influence.

[LaBombo]

Which one?

No offense, but... duh, cheeseball grin guy on the right. You think I'd be adding random missives to a cooked-season (Correia!) game thread if I were even remotely descended from the Greek god banjo dude instead of the Monkey's Relative on the right?

 

You have to admit, like Povich, that MR has the more infectious smile, though, right?

That's not an out in Oakland.

Um...what?

Nice inning for the Twins. I think it might be wise to let Olivia go back to heaven for a while and bring out the lemon sucking woman to make sure we hold the lead.

Ack! Um ... okay ... but I may not do so well on the things to think about ...

 

I actually almost wanted to move that sewage story to the 'more baseball' forum but i guess it was Twins related since we are playing the A's this weekend.

[Guest USAFChief]

That's not an out in Oakland.

See, whenever there's a foul ball that ends up a few rows into the seats down either line, Bert inevitably says, "That's an out in Oakland." Only in this case, see, Plou...

 

oh forget it.

[Guest USAFChief]

Ruh roh.

I have every confidence in your ability. I cannot imagine anyone doing as good a job as Brian -- he deserves an award for being funny as hell every time. But before Brian took over, an admin would just post the lineup, add maybe 1 or 2 comments then make the thread sticky.

[Squirrel]

Awww, man, crap on toast.

[glunn]

That lemon sucking avatar would have prevented that home run. Where is Ashbury?

A poor substitute, I know.

You are quite right. I was distracted from the game for a while and came back too late to make the switch. So, it turns out, her Rallying services are needed after all.

Phrasing!

Toast happens.

With 2 enemy baserunners, I think that lemon face might be more effective at the moment.

[glunn]

That hurt.

[Squirrel]

okay ... that did it ... I'm going to bed ... my appt. with my personal trainer won't be nearly this bad

[Guest USAFChief]

I can hear the TV sets clicking off all over the midwest from 1500 miles away.

Just wait until it hits the fan.

 

 

 

Edit: Speaking of toast, Swarzak.

[ashbury]

Lesson learned. I misused the power that is Olivia, through negligence.

[glunn]

I am going to go get some frozen yogurt.

[Guest USAFChief]

Aw, man, poop on pumpernickel.

Not your fault. Gardy should have pulled Duensing sooner. Of course, lemon face would definitely have prevented the home run.
