    Prolly push the alcohol, like the rest of us.

    I can't help but feel a good offensive team would have had the KC pitcher out of the game about 6 runs ago.
  3. USAFChief
    Can we return to urinal talk and up the classiness of the game thread?
  4. USAFChief
    One of my favorite Gilligan's Island episodes.
  5. USAFChief
    Come to think of it, you might be correct. I wasn't watching either, would have to go back and look at it.
  6. USAFChief
    There are no words.
  7. USAFChief
    Actually it did, since he later got thrown out at home.
  8. USAFChief
    I can handle the truth?

    Not to get all techinical or anything, but the baserunning blunder ended up not mattering. If Santana holds, the SS throws out Hunter. Mauer walks, runners on 1st and 2nd, one out, which is where it ended up. If everything else stays the same, of course.

    //wait for it...// yes.

    just enlisted, to boot.

    Three first inning runs. I'll take it.

    Given the regular Prince's size, a mini Prince must be really, really tiny.

    Dickbert: "Guthrie has all four pitches..." drink.
  15. USAFChief
    Uff da.

    My baseball playing cousin, Danny Santanarosannadanna, gets us rollin!

    Awesome work, Bark.
  18. USAFChief
    Nice job with the game threads, stringer. Thanks!

    My opinion hasn't changed since ST started... the best of a bad set of options was to start with Hicks in CF again this year. There is still a chance that option works out, meanwhile he's probably not any worse than the current options. Plus, I doubt the current CF options come with much if any chance at success, short or long term.

    Anyone else really tired of hearing "This bird..." every time you open a page?
  21. USAFChief
    I guess I don't understand any position on this but "9". But I'm uncomfortable being of the same mind as DickBert. Fortunately it should never come up again on a Twins broadcast while we're in the field...
  22. USAFChief
    It is indeed. One wonders why. I don't think the drastically reduced workload has had any positive effect on pitcher injuries, or longivity.
  23. USAFChief
    Governer Walker later defended not bringing a gift to the reception with a rather stern "I had no idea what to get them" retort.
  24. USAFChief
    Mauer clearly cost the Twins a run tonight with substandard baserunning. Should Molitor have pulled him from the game?
  25. USAFChief
    It's rather amazing how much things have changed in a relatively short time. Bert Blyleven debuted as a 19 yr old in 1970. From 1971 through 1976 (when he was traded mid season) he never threw less than 275 innings in a season, and had 110 complete games. His ERAs in that stretch ranged from a high of 3.00 to a low of 2.66. He was 25 yrs old at the end of that run. He threw another 3000 innings AFTER that, including five more seasons over 250 with 293 as a 34 yr old, and ended with a career 3.31 ERA. If Hughes is an ace, how much would Blyleven (who wasn't regarded as the top pitcher of his era), be worth today with those numbers?
