  1. Camp? You can go to a camp. I already have my secret hiding place dug in the back yard with provisions for 4 years. No one will ever be able to find .............. Whoops
  2. I just hope that the season long pursuit of this record, will not leave the boys drained tomorrow, and not up to their best effort. It's important to remain focused on 105!
  3. News Flash, Les Nessman here reporting that a hotly debated GT topic from several weeks ago has been debunked. Rugby ND no longer considered the center of North America! You heard it here first on TD GT!
  4. there's something about that pic that made me think Molitor is the back half?
  5. Chicago hitter thrown at for disrespecting Twins pitcher! (160 games too late)
  6. Dick keeps promising us there's no more games after Sunday for the Twins. He better not be lying to me.
  7. The game has settled into a nice pace. You can catch a little nap, mow the lawn, take out the garbage, and shingle your garage, and not miss a thing.
  8. Apparently the boys left it all on the field last night in that thrilling come from ahead win. Understandably it's difficult to maintain such a high level of competitiveness every day.
  9. Maybe the best example of "faint praise, indeed" ever posted!
  10. Walk? Hit? SO? Makes not a difference. Robbie can't play OF. I would take Arcia over him. And what compounds it, even if he catches it, he can't throw! UGH
  11. It appears the only ones who want this season over more than the Twins, and TD GT'ers, are the umpires. We used to call it, .swing early, and swing often.
  12. No way Corgi, trooper that he has been, can maintain that pace for 6 more innings.
  13. The good news is that this beyond inept performance may be the thing that finally convinces someone in authority that simply a few relief pitchers, a new DH, or even a new GM is not going to do it. There are some legitimate ML players here, but some are going to have to be traded for needed parts, and the entire culture needs an upgrade!
  14. And the corner guys need to give him an extra 25' when judging the need for them to get to a ball.
  15. Hi, my name is Platoon, and I am a Murrican! >>>>>>>>> HI PLATOON!
  16. During the 160th game of the year, Dick noted that the Twins don't need any more DH 1B types. I noticed a long time ago what an astute commentator he is!
  17. Is that Sarnia? I normally take a raft across there. . I have my passport and Canadian language guide. All I need is a sponsor for citizenship.
  18. I have to say one thing. The White Sox defense is vastly improved over the last time I saw them!
  19. Holidays at our house are noted for no holds barred torments and oddball humor. My 92 yr old dad loved tormenting his granddaughters. One Thanksgiving he regaled the two of them with tales of his and a female friends efforts to get together for a glass of wine and cordial conversation. My oldest daughter was a huge fan of her late grandmother, and dad could see he was getting her goat, which was his intent. She finally could take it no longer, and blurted, "GPA, how old is this woman?" When he responded "65", she just about flipped. "GPA, WHAT are you doing with such a young woman?" I don't think we quit laughing for 5 minutes.
  20. I realize Robbie Grossman walks a lot. Of course he also takes enough called third strikes for almost a whole team.
  21. I lost a few of them myself. And not once did I end up regretting the loss. In fact the one that seemed the biggest loss, turned into the biggest win. Good luck to you in your search.
  22. Removing Berrios in the 5th with two outs and a lead was not done because he was losing it, or because the game situation, or season demanded it. It was intentional. But for what reason? To send a message? But to whom? For what? Gardy was infamous for using that situation to either discipline a recalcitrant pitcher, or in the inverse reward a veteran by leaving him try and get the out for a cheap win. Molitor didn't remove Berrios in a poor strategic move. So why did he really jerk him?
  23. It went into Canadian auto correct by mistake. It was supposed to be, supportive. I need to proof read better. And I don't mean a 100 proof either!
