  1. "I think it's well worth enduring the losing seasons for the result of a stocked farm system. I think this is the way to achieve sustained success." This doesn't seem contradictory to you, Sam? Losing seasons equals sustained success?
  2. Plus, it's not like anybody would believe he hit what he was aimin' at.
  3. Oh c'mon, lets not exaggerate. The BNB's could hit.
  4. This is obviously wrong. It only SEEMED like we skipped the top of the 3rd and the WS batted for six consecutive outs.
  5. LOL: Morris "No, I don't believe May was throwing at him...but I'm glad he did."
  6. Just exactly what class ARE you teaching??
  7. I sense sarcasm from 1800 miles away. amiright?
  8. http://regardingarts.com/film/gfilm/greentwp.JPG walkin the mile, walkin the mile...
  9. Dick just informed me the WS are "beginning to pull away." True story.
  10. "True story" I forgot our anniversary last week. Kind of a big deal...35 years and all. The next morning I felt terrible, so I asked Mrs Chief how I could make it up to her. She told me she wanted to find something in the garage that went from zero to 200 in seconds flat. So i backed her old clunker out and put the bathroom scale in her parking spot.
  11. The next time somebody tells me Joe Mauer never has any RBI's because he never gets any chances, or spouts some dribble about his BA w RISP, I'm gonna play a tape of that AB. "Take two and flip one to left with 2 strikes" never won a pennant and never will.
  12. Busted. But I gotta ask...of all the "personal" stories I've told on game threads, THAT's the one I get busted on??
  13. http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/shot-glass-whiskey-27414884.jpg concur.
  14. http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.2540157.1456171265!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_635/108024005.jpg I thought that guy from Utah had the record in Jeopardy.
  15. A bear walks into a bar and says "Give me a beer ... ... ... and some peanuts." The bartender says, "OK, but why the long pause?"
  16. So I've been going to the same barber shop for a couple years now, and almost every time I go, the same scenario plays out. The barber sees this kid walking in, looks down at me and says "Watch this. This is the stupidest kid in the world!" He puts a dollar in one hand, and two quarters in the other, holding both hands open so the kid can see what is in each. "Hey kid," he says. "Which one you want?" Sure enough, the kid picks the two quarters over the dollar bill. After the kid walks out, the barber says, "He does the same thing every time!" and laughs and laughs. Yesterday, I was walking down the street after leaving the barber, and I saw the kid walking out of a candy store with a small bag of candy. "Hey kid," I says, "why'dya take the two quarters instead of the dollar? That's stupid!" The kid just looks at me and laughs and laughs. "Yeah, real stupid. The day I take the dollar bill, the jig's up."
  17. I prefer a team puts a minor leaguer in the lineup when he forces his way into it. When he's better than the player he replaces, or likely soon will be. I don't like letting clearly inferior players lose games in the big leagues in the hope they might someday be better. Right now, I doubt Alex Meyer helps the Twins win more games. I would, for example, let Buxton play CF for the Twins, because I think he's better than Santana, or soon will be. I wouldn't pay much attention to 2017, much less the years after that. It's difficult to predict next week in baseball, much less next year. Thinking you can plan 3, 5 years ahead is folly.
