For Love of the Game stinks -
There is no way they're watching tonight, with the possible exception of Tom

At 5AM on Monday, I broke my toe while trying to let my dying dog out of the basement, discovering that she'd taken a dump in the kids' play room in the process. Hearing the Pohlads called beloved on a national stage was the worst part of my week

Pohlad family: a long-time and beloved ownership group Vasgersian, you silly little boy

Maybe Adams is just a two-inning guy

They're doing the microwave wrong Grilled in the husk sounds fantastic
-
Like, 5 minutes. This method effectively steams them

Like chicken, obvi

my hands are dainty and nimble, thankyouverymuch This is might sound strange, but putting them in a dish, covering them with plastic wrap, and microwaving them turns out fantastic. I thought I was gonna have to start googling lawyers when my wife suggested it, but it turned out fantastic and was super easy. Also, grilled is yummy

No holders - holders are for children and communisits. I have great technique, keep the mess to a minimum. I can also eat wings while dirtying only three fingers. I'm a man of many talents

I promise I'd smoke you in a corn cob eating race Isn't that the lamest brag of all time
-
I'm carving a Louisville Slugger when I eat my corn
-
When CoK posed the question, I thought of up and down as holding the cob vertically Wait a second - I think I'm one of those weirdos And by weirdos, I mean people who know how to eat corn properly and efficiently
-
I didn't know up and down was an option

If they're really committing to the Field of Dreams bit, they should be able to get Walter Johnson and Grover Cleveland Alexander to show up. I think Netflix has the cash to make it happen

I'm convinced that the trade up to get a second first rounder weeks (months??) before the draft was done explicitly to gather ammo to make a run at Maye. One problem with this is that you generally are paying a premium in value to move up in the draft, all else equal. By doing it this way, they'd have to pay the premium twice. Of course, another problem with this is that it still wasn't enough. They didn't help themselves by panicking and trading up again anyway, resulting in paying the double premium for Turner. This is why draft trades generally don't happen until draft night* once the draft order is locked in: if teams are paying a premium, they want to know exactly who they're getting by paying it. A shining example of KAM's misadventures in draft board management * - exceptions for trading the #1 or #2 pick - when these happen, the teams trading up can be reasonably sure that their guy will be there

Not sure which is the more surprising fun fact I've learned from the broadcasts over the last couple games: Twins lead the league in infield hits Twins are the last remaining team without a player that has struck out at least 100 times

Franklin looked a little more Hayes than Mays on that one
-
I mean ... there's an empty house right there

Your feed is definitely faster than mine

Apparently Alonso is a big Peter Gabriel fan

Dynamite drop in Monty!

I hear he got kicked out of every strip club in Albany
