  1. . For 10 mil we should have gotten both of them, like a BOGO
  2. . Yes! No! None!
  3. . I too thought the stop sign was very late. But he did tie a league record for being out. Avila tried to make it close
  4. I did not want to sign Hunter, I was aghast when they did it, and have not changed my opinion. But in expressing it I would hope to be able to do it with a little less fervor. On this team, in this situation, it was a decision that can only point in one of two directions. Either he was signed, despite statements to the contrary, to sell tickets and merchandise to the casual fan. Or he was signed because the people in the FO still thought he could play baseball? I am not sure which is worse? I like many, am absolutely sick of seeing him shoved down our throats during every broadcast. But truth be told, if someone offered me 10 m to play, I would do it, even knowing I can't. One thing is obvious, Target Field has more empty seats than ever. No one is turning out in droves to watch him play.
  5. On a rare baseball note, Dozier seems to be extremely frustrated lately. His displays on called strikes is becoming pretty common. A night to calm down?? I don't think Molly did him any favors in the 4 hole, he is already pull happy, and this just exacerbated It.
  6. I concur with your mom! While a Jacque Jones jersey generally generates generic gentrification , and 15 and 16 is an acceptable age for trick or treating, after that it's time to switch to something that shows your level of maturity. But what?? I am sure there are wags on here that would suggest just being on a TD game thread already indicates that maturity level, or lack thereof. But they should be advised that to do so, is a self indictment in and of itself!
  7. Regarding pinch hitting Escobar, what are your choices? Mauer is the only one that is hitting at all. Plouffe maybe? And they were both in the lineup. This is really not a good offensive team. Dozier has completely sold out on the inside pitch, and seems to be getting more and more frustrated. Virtually every young hitter in the orginisation is struggling. It's like it's a disease.
  8. Good news TD threaders! Nolasco reports his arm felt wonderful, and he is ready to go! YEAH
  9. The post office? At 10 pm? Where I live the post office closes at 1 pm. She goes home for lunch!
  10. Since Torii left Detroit, it's obvious no one is mentoring base runners!
  11. I miss the Gong show! And The Man Show! It seems that true iconic television is a thing of the past!
  12. Guy on third, no out! Walking Miggy seems like a good idea. And Martinez! And Martinez! Wait, that's one too many!
  13. . What's "cardio" tennis? My version would be me running back to the fence to pick up balls I missed. But I am assuming you are more proficient!
  14. It might be time for Torii to cut back on the mentoring, and work on the hitting.
  15. you can get in for under the $25, but you better have stopped at McDonalds on the way
  16. . If everyone left the game thread who said something stupid, we would not ever get to pg 2!
  17. . I thought that was the pic of Stecie Wonder? Btw, an exceptional DP by Samtana/Dozier
  18. . From the TV feed it looks like a lot of Minnesotans agree with you
  19. . Several thoughts: First off, you are going to have to quit sharing your pics with Brian! Not that they don't look good, it's that he has no sense of discretion whatsoever. Who knows how many men will now miss almost the entire game thread, and maybe even the game itself because of this. Secondly, considering Chiefs advanced age, it's irresponsible to put pics like this in the game thread. If something happens to the Chief, I am holding him personally responsible. But the most serious transgression from the game thread was seeing Schafer batting with Price pitching. Doesn't baseball have rules against stuff like this?
  20. . I listened to the first few innings on the radio. Danno announced that Gibson looked like he was dialed in! 4 batters later the score was tied!
  21. . What if you got to watch all those WS with Jenmifer Lawerence?
  22. . But you would not need shoes if you go to the island with me! The Lawerence sisters will do all the work. We will feast on coconut juice, papaya, and the aforementioned occasional wild roasted boar!
  23. Dozier must have been ill the day they had sliding lessons in ST?
