    Early. Stop? End? Nah, this is too much fun... To quote Zathros, "At least there is symmetry." But alas, i guess i must stop paying attention with a 5-1=4 run lead.
  2. sampleSizeOfOne
    Then the veterans got arrested? Sounds serious. And no one else bailed the Twins out.
  3. sampleSizeOfOne
    Not a win. I guess i got ahead of myself stopping at Boston Market...
  4. sampleSizeOfOne
    Boston folk are pretty good at following all the personel changes. Color me impressed...

    According to the sox broadcast, it bounced out of Grossman's diving glove, and the wind might have befuddled Reginatto. And i did not turn the radio on until after it was 7-5...
  6. sampleSizeOfOne
    When you're right, you're right...
  7. sampleSizeOfOne
    And a wildepitch breaks up the shut out...
  8. sampleSizeOfOne
    How does that mantra go again? "In play, run(s)" please!
  9. sampleSizeOfOne
    Gameday don't say it's over yet...

    Ah, the fine art of sleeping through half the game. Haven't done that for a while. Just like ol' times! What i miss? Can't wait to see us playin' like butter... that is, on a roll.
  11. sampleSizeOfOne
    Serves me right. Ask an abiguous question, get multiple right answers. Happens every spring time...
  12. sampleSizeOfOne
    What for?
  13. sampleSizeOfOne
    If i understand the situation... the Twins saw the Light. The Pirates see the Light. But i have been wrong before...

    If a man steps foot in a river... what does he do with his other foot? Are we doomed to stand like a heron? Without a long beak and a quick neck to pounce at unsuspecting Dodger prospects? Knee deep in the big muddy, and the trade rumors are said to press on.

    Nothing wrong with wanting to know what's up. Admittedly i followed Dave's thread to the bitter end, then took the first 100 pages of this one off before picking it back up. It is like watching a nature documentary or something. The father penguin holds the Dozier egg off of the snow to keep it warm as the Dodgers march across the barren snow fields to hunt for prospects to feed the fledgeling trade rumors, and continue the circle of life in this inhospitible environment. Everything is better when Morgan Freeman is narrating it.

    Indeed, i stand corrected. A dead guy with a live bat has value!
  17. sampleSizeOfOne
    I'm probably still gone. Just how i roll. Now if ever i can get the hang of rocking... But Dozier didn't die did he? Would probably reduce his trade value somewhat.
  18. sampleSizeOfOne
    So... What have i missed?

    Ticket to ride is a recent favorite of my sister, with the tablet version managing the details and tallying scores and what not. I played cribbage with Grandpa, amd traditionally offer to teach it whenever i am in an AMC hut with friends who don't know it. Euchre club had a motorhead short design, and i ended up fielding more music compliments and conversations for which i was ill-prepared. I like the stories of my father and uncle playing as partners in duplicate bridge tournaments. As i understood it, there was no middle ground, either they made all the brilliamt plays no one else did and ran away with it, or they missed all the easy plays everyone got and came in last. But that probably came through the filter of what makes a good story... Oh yeah, merry christmas and all that jazz!

    Much appreciated. I was old enough to know better at that point, so probably the damage was already done.

    Epiphany... As the old adage goes. nature abhores a vacuum. Without an actual baseball game driving the thread, what other games do people enjoy? My gramma taught me Russian Bank long ago, and occasionally i go in search of others who know the game. My parents also had a board game called Wheel 'n' Deal, (unique from others of the same name as it has a Squirrelville Detour) And last but not least, somewhere out there is a game my sister found at a store going out of business whose name i don't recall. But it was a 2 player game in which each player had 10 dice, and the only element of chance decided who went first. It was essentially a chess game where the dice were pieces that moved the number of hexagons showing, and the players sum remained the same, so if a piece was taken, other dice were incremented. Most intriguing, i found it, but never played it extensively...

    Putin says... Play "Putin says" instead of "Simon says"

    Aha, i kinda figured that was likely my error. Them Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim... And him being less likely to be traded means all the more reason he would be around to welcome one Brian Dozier to LA... (that much of my comment i'd thought through, believe it or not)
  24. sampleSizeOfOne
    My bad... Perhaps i could have been more clearer if i had said something like "Please remind me who we traded him to." For some reason, i thought it was Los Angeles... Please don't blame the FO for my dubious communication skilz.
  25. sampleSizeOfOne
    I finally figured it out. The reason the Twins have not given up any hits is that they haven't been playing baseball... That RiverBrian is clever, what with the game thread and all! I wish i was quicker with the lyric references so i could have contributed to that aspect of the thread.
