    Seventh Inning Rally Squelcher By Committee, this year.

    Pride goeth before a fall, or something like that.

    Dean not afraid to pitch inside. Almost nicked the batter, Bradley, but it would have worked had he been able to find the plate on the outside, on either of the next two pitches. Unfortunately...

    Then after she clarified, you opted for Soup?

    Which solar system are you posting from, where your planet circles its star in only one day?

    Carnac: Max Kepler Ed: [some toadying remark] Carnac: May the fleas of a thousand toads infest your warts. Ed; [some mock-hurt comment] The envelope, please. Carnac: What do you switch to when Extra Kepler is no longer enough?

    Carnac: Pat Dean. Ed: Pat Dean. Carnac: Strange acoustics in the studio tonight. Ed: Hey-yo! Would you be so kind as to open the hermetically sealed envelope? Carnac: What does Mrs Heller do to the senator on his way out the door to work each morning?

    "Well-regulated" is also pretty unambiguous, as is "militia" with regard to the idea at the time how to defend the country.

    FTFY.

    Go on...?

    And vice versa.

    When I think of Arcia, I can't help thinking of Earl Weaver, who was a master of looking past what a player couldn't do, and finding what he could do and integrating it into the team. Maybe he'd decide Arcia couldn't contribute, but it seems to me that he might decide this was his new John Lowenstein (also a questionable glove).

    People keep saying it can't get any worse. And then Chargois comes up and posts a 67.5 ERA. You have to get three outs to end an inning; it can ALWAYS get worse.

    Pohlad would have done himself better to take the "focus on winning" in the direction of explaining what a beautiful sport it is and, even if you root root root for the home team and they don't win, it's not a shame because you were watching an interesting game that most people can understand the fine details of and enjoy what is going on (or second guess if they like) and see some plays that most mortals can't make, yet it's being played by mortals and not freaks of nature in most cases such as in other sports. Then he'd be criticized for being schmaltzy, I suppose.

    ... to first caller.

    You'd give him a 2nd appearance? You old softie.

    First, if you have not done so already, please review the TD Comment Policy. If your aim is to fine-tune a certain "level of trollishness", you are almost certainly embarking down a path that will lead to regret. Rather than match the level of objectionability you perceive, try to be the better person in the exchange. We ask this of all posters, since one person's "tit for tat" is another person's "raising the ante". The moderators tend to allow more leeway here in the Sports Bar forum area, but it is not infinite. Rebut an argument you disagree with, and don't seek to troll. (This is why I posted an earlier mod warning concerning a nickname for a political opponent; there isn't really a rebuttal to calling someone Goober, and all it leads to is bickering. By contrast the post you objected to can be rebutted calmly in any of several ways.) We do not condone discussing moderation policy within a topical thread. As you'll know from reading the Comment Policy, there is another forum area, "Questions About MinnCentric," where such discussion is appropriate, and should be confined. I've exercised a bit of "moderator privilege" to respond to your specific concern here, but further such member discussion in this thread will be removed.

    Punishment to fit the crime? Or, cruel and unusual? "Yes."

    Hey Chief, that's a bannin', right? You want to do the honors or shall I?
  21. ashbury
    Trust me, no one has a monopoly on that behavior.

    MY dad still buys.
  23. ashbury
    Welp, the daughter actually is in town, and we are meeting her for lunch. I'll leave it to the rest of you to bring this win home!
  24. ashbury
    You apparently fat-fingered your keyboard. Which digit there did you intend?

    The Igniter! This is what Glynn or maybe Quade promised us with Mastroianni, but he failed to deliver. So we go with Nunez as our sparkplug.
