  1. In Wife Speak: Ah... I don't think so. Ah Come on. No Absolutely not. C'mon be reasonable. N O spells No It won't take that long I promise. No No No No No
  2. Wouldn't work... By the time he got to Phoenix... it'll be too late. Maybe Galveston instead. Or,,, just stay in Wichita. He could work the straw far from this opera forever more.
  3. At the time. There was a lineman for the county driving the main roads looking for overloads. He's still on the line.
  4. Believe me when I say that lightning strikes will change you.
  5. Here's me walking in Wichita
  6. This is me last July 4th celebrating in Baudette.
  7. This is me without a face mask this afternoon in 40 degrees. Bring it on
  8. You are just hanging around with the wrong crowd. There are some rooms behind book cases with lots of people who'd love to see you.
  9. He couldn't read it because the memo had a face mask on it.
  10. Oh Man. Fondue! I'll dip anything in melted cheese. Even the Swiss Miss lady... if she doesn't mind.
  11. I didn't check for that because I'm trying to deny reality. I miss the days of plowing the catcher.
  12. Sure I see how you are. Going after the neutral ladies.
  13. Agreed... I'd coach my infielders to aim lower because the hop is better than sailing it. That play was on Vazquez... however... it still wasn't a great throw.
  14. Looking at Buxton with the face mask in 36 degrees and I think of all the Winters that I have spent in Northwestern Minnesota and Northeastern North Dakota. I've seen -30 below air temperature. I've seen 40 mph winds in January. I've done maybe 55 winters in these conditions. I shovel, blow snow, I used to play outdoor hockey, tackle football with my friends in the snow every Saturday. I built snowmen, dug tunnels, I've jumped cars that won't start... I've driven in blizzard conditions where you have to hang your face out of the window just to see the centerline. I can honestly say... that the only time I have ever worn a face mask was while snowmobiling. Well... OK... there were couple of times during a bank robbery but other than that. 36 ain't face mask weather.
  15. It was a poor throw but clearly a ball that Vasquez should have handled. Runner on 2nd... Julien made a nice effort to get to a ball to his left... sliding to keep the ball in the infield. The Runner tried to surprise him by going for home anyway. Julien threw home and the ball was online but landed well short of the plate which gave Vazquez a very long hop to field it and Vazquez didn't read it and the runner scored. If Vazquez makes the catch... he has time to lower his face mask... take a swig of hot chocolate and then make the tag. No it wasn't a great throw... but Vazquez knows he should have caught it.
  16. Not that long... I listen to them 1,000 at a time.
  17. They all got rest on Thursday. Miranda is one of the few guys putting an actual barrel on the baseball this year. Martin? He has been at least chippy. Somewhat competitive. I guess when the chips are down it's the vets who have played a few hands. Let's see if Doyle Brunson can bluff his way to the final table.
  18. Who knows... could be that he's trying to draw out the left handed reliever. It will... We know when Chafin is entering the game. It won't be to face Vazquez and Farmer at the bottom of the order. Sorry to ruin the surprise for everyone. I should have typed spoiler alert.
  19. The best part of that song is when the singer can no longer fit the entire phone number into that typical pop/rock title line repetition at the end as it fades out. He's just singing out 5 3 0 9 at the end... 5 3 0 9... 5 3 0 9. Just so they can follow the Pop/Rock Fade out formula like it's the end of Hey Jude!!! I know some will not get the humor in it... But, I've listened to 100 million songs over my life time and every time I hear that song... I wait for the end... Just for that part.
  20. I normally don't care up the lineup order. But I can't help wonder why he stacks the left handers. He's just inviting a left hander reliever to enter the game at the top of the order to face 4 batters and then bring in the right hander. Detroit has three lefties in the Pen BTW. For someone who is as consistently left/right split locked in... I can't understand why he does that. If he batted Julien 1, Kirilloff 4 and Larnach 7. He's going to force that lefty to face two righties and at least 4 batters just to take on 2 left handers. I don't get it. 1. Julien L 2. Jeffers R 3. Buxton R 4. Kirilloff L 5. Santana S 6. Farmer R 7. Larnach L 8. Vazquez R 9. Castro S Easy They never call me!!!
  21. Grichuk currently occupies that roster spot.
  22. You may be right. Your response is also an answer to these questions: Craig's car wouldn't start this morning. What should he take to get to work? What does Craig use to humor us?
  23. I've always had a soft spot for Milwaukee. So if I had a 2nd team... they would be it. I don't have a 2nd team so they are not it. As far as entertaining teams to watch at this moment Reds would be at the top of the list
  24. Thinking about it. Other than the rest required for his body. What would stop a team from letting a guy with MLB talent in both arms occupy two spots in a 5 man rotation?
