    I like where your head is at, spy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRLHro9EPD0

    I'll take a basket of fried Red Snapper mow em down innings while the rest of my party arrives. Thanks!

    To quote The Big Lebowski.... You're not wrong. You're just a (you know what) But I agree with you.

    Also, what do you recommend for food here?
  5. Vanimal46
    No table option at this fine establishment?
  6. Vanimal46
    Because he's publicly embraced the role as clubhouse leader....
  7. Vanimal46
    Sure, but that's where leadership comes into play to let the young players know the sky isn't falling... There's plenty of games left to play. Maybe Dozier gets a bad reputation because reporters seemingly only go to him for quotes in the paper. From the fan's perspective, he's leading the way complaining about the team selling, and not playing at a high level.
  8. Vanimal46
    No doubt it's deflating. However, the FO was merely reacting to how the team was playing. They wanted to make smart buy trades, and when the wheels fell off, they changed course. We could say they should have bought earlier, and I would agree with that. Not much else you can do when they play .300 baseball over the last 20 games.
  9. Vanimal46
    Agreed. They do have to find a way to motivate themselves now that the season is over. Whether that's pumping up their stats, earning their next contract, or securing a role on the team next season. Still not sure the right leadership is in place for the young players to follow.... Specifically Molitor and Dozier who's supposed to be the veteran clubhouse leader.
  10. Vanimal46
    You know the options are very, very limited when they keep going back to Gibson....
  11. Vanimal46
    Sounds like it's about time Dozier got moved out of the lead-off spot. It also feels like it's a weekly occurrence with Rosario having mental lapses in the OF. Sigh....

    At music festivals you get to see some things you really want to see! But more often than not, you're going to see things you never wish to see again... Chi talking about muddy grounds brings up a memory I wish I never saw again.

    Mid-50's? In August?
  14. Vanimal46
    It is, diehard... During the very limited times I fly back home, going to Jake's Pizza is a must.
  15. Vanimal46
    Agreed. Publicly-funded sports stadiums are an absolute scam, and the NFL is superior at strong-arming communities to pay for it or else... I know there are rabid, diehard Vikings fans who would have been crushed if the team left Minnesota. We're not that demographic, obviously. I'd much prefer having the choice of tuning in or out of the game from the comfort of my living room.
  16. Vanimal46
    Hmm, I never thought of that before. But it makes sense. The TV contract rate is the same whether it's 162 games, or 180 games. Do they not see the revenues from TBS/FOX when they are on national TV for the playoffs?
  17. Vanimal46
    What do you learn in game threads? That we're all just a little, oh what's the right word... unique?
  18. Vanimal46
    That's okay, we're doing this rhyme on the company's dime.
  19. Vanimal46
    Like Corona without a lime.
  20. Vanimal46
    Absolutely. After stressful or unsuccessful days at my current job, I think back to the days when I worked for the city parks department. Still one of the best jobs I've ever had. Working at a baseball field, mowing awesome designs in the OF, and lots of manual labor to make the infield look professional. Can't beat working outside when you're young and free!

    Also, #FreeJakeReed
  22. Vanimal46
    So Romero is at 110 innings so far. His cap before getting shut down completely is probably, what, 150 innings? It sure would be nice if 20-30 of the remaining innings were in Minnesota.
  23. Vanimal46
    This was on the Rangers broadcast last night. I don't think you can butcher a graphic any more than this.
  24. Vanimal46
    Concur. There's a rewarding feeling with manual labor... I loved mowing lawn in high school because of the instant results you could see. And I'm sure my dad enjoyed the fact he didn't have to mow the lawn when he came home from work.
  25. Vanimal46
    You've always been a rebel, eh Chi?
