  1. Hmm, wonder which All-Star(s) were selected at #10 to skew the number higher than the people selected at #4 overall?
  2. Along with National Happiness Day, it is also National Frozen Custard Day! Culver's I know is exclusively custard for their ice cream treats. Are there other chain restaurants that have only custard?
  3. I'm not sure if I even want to tune in for the 2nd season. Not sure I want to commit to another season of infuriating content that won't be solved. If they couldn't get any traction from the 1st season with everyone including their grandmothers talking about it, what makes them think a 2nd season will do better?
  4. It wasn't him kissing himself in the mirror? http://www.jamespreller.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/alex_rodriguez.jpg
  5. Does A-Rod leave this game as the most polarizing player in the history of baseball? Or at least in the last 20-30 years? The only other player who I can think of that was this polarizing was Barry Bonds. And even for him, I'd say more people hated him, and he found that bubble in San Francisco where he was a God.
  6. Sure, are we going to be around in 6 years to determine the winner of the bet?
  7. Ha, bet on what? That the #10 pick is worse than the #4 pick?
  8. With how much of a crapshoot the MLB Draft is in general, it doesn't matter if they have the #4 pick or the #10 pick. I prefer to see more wins this year to build towards next season.
  9. George Carlin was a master at creating comedy bits about the English language. Wish I could post them on here, but they're littered with profanity.
  10. Guy is definitely a YMMV kind of guy. I've gone to a couple of places here in Austin that were featured on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives. One was a very average BBQ place, and one was a brunch spot that was actually really good, but a terribly long wait to get a table.
  11. Congratulations Ichiro! What a career for him.
  12. A-Rod became a star right when I was becoming a fan of baseball as a youngster in 1998. Besides Barry Bonds I can't think of another position player in my baseball fandom with more natural talent and ability on a baseball field. The surprising thing IMO is some team hasn't shown any interest in letting him attempt to hit 4 more HRs to get to 700.
  13. Then Polanco or someone will be plan B at 3B. I refuse to write off Sano playing there after 28 MLB games there. This Twins hot take of Sano being a terrible fielder who will never figure it out is getting out of hand.
  14. I'm currently at a bar where the game of the night is "Chicken S*** Bingo". There are live chickens here and a big playpen with a bingo board set up. If said chicken s's on your number, mark it down. It's the simple things in life! How's the game?
  15. It's been 30 minutes. He's got to be 350 pounds at this point, right?
  16. Pretty disappointed Kemp's Ice Cream is not included in Joe Mauer's basket. Is he no longer the face of Kemp's?
  17. For the right price and cause, you can get Brian Dozier to autograph anything! - Autographed ticket stub - Autographed Media Guide - Autographed baby He'll even write out his name in spaghetti!
  18. My assumption is that every licensed plumber in the US goes commando. How else do you explain plumber's crack?
  19. That is true. Though going commando all day can be risky. This is probably in the TMI category, but there's nothing better than coming home after work, taking off the pants and undies, and putting on some shorts.
  20. Correct. It is a pipe dream to expect some sort of trade to happen in the next 2-3 weeks that includes Trevor Plouffe. Teams did not line up for Plouffe (or any notable 3B) last off-season. He's playing worse this season. Why would there suddenly be interest in him now?
  21. Even if an August trade does not happen, this idea should be explored at length in the off-season. I'm still of the belief if the Twins can get under the last 2 years of this contract, that would be ideal.
  22. The problem with August waiver wire trades is some other team could put a claim on him with no motivation whatsoever to make a deal for him. All it takes is a team like the Angels or the A's to put a claim on him to ruin this proposal.
  23. My mind was in the same gutter as yours when I clicked on the thread.
  24. Sounds like we found the next Ben Revere for the organization!
  25. You're right about Molitor not benching Plouffe, sadly. I have a feeling this is going to happen, which is a shame. Polanco has been red hot since he was called back up.
