  • I had to vote for everyone. I know it doesn't help, but I thought everyone did a great job. Now everyone has a participation trophy.   Thank you to everyone who have made these game threads happen.

Add a fine for those N's on this shoes. 

Who are you? George Banks?

 

Anyone have a favorite powerball number for tonight? I'm not asking for all six numbers just a gut feeling about the powerball itself. Just the red ball.

 

Would be nice to scan one of those little scanners and not have it always read "Not a winner", that makes me feel like a dirty White Sox fan of which I will never be.

I actually got a ticket today and all those numbers will be my favorites, when I check them tomorrow.....  :)

Yes... I'm stern and practical. 

 

Wait a Sec (Pause)

 

Actually I'm the opposite of those things. I don't even know what Stern and Practical Mean. 

I voted for ChiTown because I gotta keep her on my side. She's a make things tick gal. 

 

With those strict HOF vote percentage guidelines. The way the poll is going. It looks like we are all going to be Bert Blyleven'ed. 

 

Another thought... Where will the hall be built? I'm thinking Brainerd or Dyersville Iowa.

 

Intercourse Pa?

Just don't quick pick it. 

 

Good God... The Odds of numbers coming up randomly are long enough. If you quick pick it... That means those numbers would have to come up twice. That makes the odds twice as long. 

 

Better than 4, 4 is an unlucky number. 8 is the Chinese number for luck and also one of the most commonly picked powerball numbers. That and I'm thinking the Twins might need that many runs after Hughes pitches tonight.

 

8 is also the only number that uses every light on a scoreboard.

HUH???????    :roll:

Kudos on the links so as we can reread 'em.No one told me i would be graded on length...Some day, i'm gonna match that. But if i do, it'll be in one long sentence... A subtle/shallow criticism of the Twins battery: run on.

Fair warning ... editing is my thing. :)

So what is Hughes averaging on his fastball tonight, 85-86 miles an hour?

The only luck I ever have with Chines numbers is when I order the #47 at Fung Yu Wangs House of Foo Yang! It's a combination Moo Goo Gai Pan, and Fettuchini Alfredo dish!

Plouffle!!!!!

 

HUH???????    :roll:

 

The Quick Pick is a Random Draw and the Drawing is a Random Draw. That means to win... you gotta match up two random draws exactly in a short period of time. 

 

Your Odds have to be at least 100 to 1 on that happening. 

Yes... I'm stern and practical.

Stern is the back end of a ship. I think that's where the poop deck is. Not to be confused with the head...

 

I think they maintain the nomenclature, even on non-sailing ships, but don't have relevant experience to comment.

 

Hmmm... So is that what folk meant who told me to use my head? I never thought of that before...

 

 

Hey Dozier's on second! Cool!

The same odds as Plouffie getting a leg double?

TC's Mom -- she was in the woods with her twin cubs when she confronted by trappers who made her choose which cub would remain with her free in the wild and which one would end up coming with them and have to live a life doing stupid pet trips while wearing a stupid grin.  With great anguish and a Polish accent she told them to take TC.  There is a plaque telling the story in the Legend's Club.  Sad story.

But oh! Those cheekbones!

I've been told to use my head just once in my life (yeah, that was you, Chi).

 

It's no compliment. Everyone who's met me can clearly see that I have none.

Great looking crowd for a playoff hopeful team with 12 games to play in a surprisingly good season. Yeesh.

...

My bad. That was Plouffe, and that's what i get for not payin' attention to the game.

I think they mentioned Dozier's from yesterday and that confused me.

I had Barbecue for lunch... as a group we ordered a half pound of everything. Ribs... two different styles... Pulled Pork... Brisket... Chicken and Steak. 

 

It was fantastic lunch fit for a Puma. As long as the Puma enjoys a dry rub.

 

 I may not think about food for a couple of days.

 

I feel like a snake that just ate a Water Buffalo. I'm probably good for awhile.  

 

Ahem, I voted for those that might be in a position to influence those who make the decisions about the game threads for the playoffs.

 

That they also happened to be the best thread starters, in my opinion, is merely coincidence.

Those of us stuck at home, listening to Gorg, search for the remote to mute the sound.

Wow. There really is someone whose last name is Gorg and is not involved with Fraggle Rock...

 

Astounded!

 

Anyway, not to be distracted...

 

Each of us adjusts our environments to simulate comfort, as the players battle the elements along with their adversaries...

11. Longest game thread ;)

Heh--  love it.  A game thread that goes up to 11...

There is no future in getting behind Kluber.  Might as well go up there hackin'.
