Denada. Glad my familiarity with parodic materials is useful occasionaly.

So... not

Please don't pull his finger...

I think it would be impolite to break out the brooms before the first game of a series... Or were you thinking of the kind with irons?

Fin.

Are we there yet?

Almost game time... Wait for it...

How remiss of me. I thought i had inclded pitchers in the initial post because i knew them... But i did type their names instead of cutting and pasting so i might have misspelt. Cutting and pasting on computers just doesn't taste the same...

I had posted a bit prematurely in the expectation of being busy... Here is what i left out: Us: 1. Brian Dozier ( R) 2B 2. Max Kepler (L) RF 3. Miguel Sano ( R) 3B 4. Joe Mauer (L) 1B 5. Kennys Vargas (S) DH 6. Jason Castro (L) C 7. Jorge Polanco (S) SS 8. Eddie Rosario (L) LF 9. Byron Buxton ( R) CF Them 1. Whit Merrifield ( R) 2B 2. Mike Moustakas (L) 3B 3. Lorenzo Cain ( R) CF 4. Eric Hosmer (L) 1B 5. Salvador Perez (R ) C 6. Alex Gordon (L) LF 7. Jorge Bonifacio ( R) RF 8. Brandon Moss (L) DH 9. Alcides Escobar ( R) SS And i won't go so far as to gaurantee a win (or for who for that matter) but if i did, it would only be of the Gersh variety.

I would have to pass through Oklahoma, and not end up in the South Pacific? If all i get are hits, everything starts to sound like a Hammer.... stein... Er and hopefull that applies to the game as well. Perhaps i shouldn't have taken that left turn at Albequerque...

Oh, I suppose it is worth asking while i am thinking of it. Due tot he dry conditions in Arizona fall league, if went to one of their games, should i expect to park in a Camel Lot?

I figured that since things rarely go quite how you plan, i would just try to write a boring game thread intro. You probably aren't excited to read the creative processes that go into something like that. So i guess, um well then, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain! Oh, since numbers are always borring... The number of the thoughts shall be 5. 1. Kansas. (as in Kansas City Royals) An ordinary plain state. But, well, it so happens we're not in Kansas any more. My head's just spinning trying to figure out if we were ever there to start with. 2. Problems. The Twins have some. It's a normal growing process. It's not like some sort of wizard is going to give Buxton a bat, Grossman a glove, Gibson an out pitch, or of course, assist with the Twins' general difficulties in getting home. 3. Last game... Sano really housed them, didn't he? 4. And to make it really boring, nothing is more reliable than in-depth analysis. I am sure most of you have perhaps noticed i drew a small bit of inspiration from the works of Frank Baum, or at least its more publicly accessible adaptations. But there was symbology. Reliance on the gold standard, the yellow brick road, ybr... rbi, runs batted in, offensive metric standard. I forget precisely what the moral was... I just represent the lollypop guild. They say there's one of us born every minute. 5. Anyway, i wrote this strange technicolor game thread, and all of you were there! Line ups and weather TBA... Minnesota Twins: Pitching: Phil Hughes (a north paw) Lion ups: TBA Kansas City Royals: Pitching: Jason Hammel (also a north paw) Lion ups: TBA

Post of the night by the way. My apologies for being a sLoewe Lerner.

Yeah. Some of the time. Begs the question: what words had worse rhyme?

It's one of the encores to "get me to the game on time"

I got ninja'd. But just you wait...

Is it a spoiler if we mention how My Fair Lady ends? As far as tonight's game goes, apparently the plain in Spain is not the only one the rain stays in.

With a little bit of luck.

I've grown accustom to this thread...

Wouldn't that be loverly! Enjoy!

Fish! It sounds like weather for it. I bet the Twins are better at fishing than the Royals.

The descerning eye will note it is just bad bad news...

What anti jinx? I think the players are just disappointing our expectations for disappointment.

Yes he can, but i'd rather he not at this point. It would involve allowing the Royals to tie the score...

After all Joe did, we couldn't even get him home. We leave him stranded at 2nd. Oh well.
