  1. "Certainly illustrates the diversity of the word." Madlibs... Getting mad... "liberatin' isn't it?" Quotes from a favorite movie set in Boston what comes to mind.
  2. Alright. My time at the rest stop is winding down. Bring it home for me. And here's to low hanging fruit and hanging curves of both the nickel and dime varieties! Let's hang something on the scoreboard! (Am i getting the hang of it yet?)
  3. So the faster we get through, the better.
  4. Bases loaded, less than 2 outs. Got 'em right where we want 'em, don't we? Oh wait. Despite their pitcher and manager, they aren't the Twins, are they.
  5. I think there is a saying about beeh befoah lickah...
  6. I thought mad libs was when we didn't know the context ahead of time. Noun, verb, adjective... But this indeed sounds like fun. If only i could drive and post at the same time... Oh, and let me know if any fruit i ever pick isn't low hanging.
  7. We let them score first? So very sporting of us...
  8. Unlike the fellow with the same name in Army of Darkness, who maybe didn't say every exact sillible...
  9. I finally got it. #4... Punned... It's a 3 and out.
  10. This being the American league... Has anyone ever played all 10 positions in a game?
  11. Thanks for starting the game thread... Sorry i been less attentive than i should be. What i miss?
  12. I liked him. There was a chunk of time where i actually took the time to follow news on the Twins rather than let it all percolate through here. And he pretty much broke just about everything as far as i can tell. I still didn't get much even then, though.
  13. Winnah. And we didn't get walked off. What a novel feeling...
  14. Don't hatch yer chickens before they count.
  15. I suppose everyone is glued to the Viking's game, eh? They sure know how to make it interesting...
  16. The Great American Game Thread Intro Call me Ish-male. Some years ago, i found myself betwixt and between, not knowing what to do with myself. And somehow i found myself unconsciously drawn to crack of the bat, the cheers of the crowd, feeling the irresistable urge to chase after a ball as it hurtles through the air much as a canine retriever might. Not knowing what i was doing, i signed up to write a game thread for a motley bunch of game threaders, who probably wouldn't terribly appreciate me likening them to fictional characters from an ancient Melville text. But i won't stop them from identifying themselves as such. Together we searched the diamonds for the mythical big bat what could wreck stadiums with single swing, although single was rarely the result. But of course, this season our ship sunk, and only i remain afloat on coffin whose dedication is to spoiler alerts. Twins Kyle Gibson ( R) 1. Joe Mauer (L) DH 2. Jorge Polanco (S) SS 3.

  17. C'mon, let's preserve that tie and take it to extras! If i have a formal restaurant, i'll call it extra innings...
  18. Could be... Ushering is a useful job. But i also figured swan song would lack authenticity sans swan...
  19. That is more than 2 touch downs. And they are favored? They must be good, or something.
  20. Anyone watching? How is De Jong looking?
  21. Mauer has a swan? Cool! And thanks for the effort to follow the theme of the intro!
  22. Mauer comes through with a sac fly for a lead! Yeah, winning really takes it out of ya...
  23. Let your hair down Game Thread. So duck and don't get hit by the falling hair. I bring up the duck cause it already has down hair... Well maybe they are feathers, not being a mammal, but it serves a similar purpose. How do you keep interested in these games, serving similar purposes to the last bit of a penant race?
