September 26, 201511 yr Author Weird time to have Perkins basically equal his season high pitch count (he threw 28 tonight, and only topped it with a 29 pitch 4 out save against St Louis back in June).What exactly was Molitor thinking? Not only does it cost us the game, it probably sets Perkins confidence level back a bit. Obviously he was playing the percentages with 4 right handed batters batting 6 7 8 and 9.
September 26, 201511 yr Spilled my beer.Germans are famous for having words for just about everything, but this truly amazes me.
September 26, 201511 yr Now... if we can't get a good punch line, maybe a good conga line will do... (I have it on good authority, punchlines are for suckers)
September 26, 201511 yr If you can't laugh in the face of death, what's the point?We spank the butt of Death with the angry newspaper of our defiance! Ha! I say. Ha! Feel that defiance? Want another? Ha!
September 26, 201511 yr Damn, I step out for 20 minutes to get some Chinese food, and now everything has fallen apart. Good food tho. Fried rice, spicy chicken and orange chicken. Yum.Lotus Garden is our jinx goat tonight, you are saying.

September 26, 201511 yr You all may borrow my mantra ... 'It's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game' ... says one who may not have a job to go to after Tuesday.
September 26, 201511 yr Forget Perkins, this is all Mauer's fault for not getting on base.Well, and Molitor for bringing him back for another inning. Well, and Perk for just not having it. These things happen. Very unfortunate timing.
September 26, 201511 yr Well that was fun ....said no Twins fan ever http://i.imgur.com/w0s2LlX.jpg Anyway, thanks for the company! I take the blame for premature chicken dinner... Next time i'll just have eggs. G'night all!
September 26, 201511 yr Would love to hear anyone defend Molly or Terry Ryan after this abortion tonight.
September 26, 201511 yr What a waste of a great opportunity. Fien, Perk, and especially--- Molly. Thanks, fellas.
September 26, 201511 yr You all may borrow my mantra ... 'It's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game' ... says one who may not have a job to go to after Tuesday.Sorry to hear that. And yes, it really is only a game. Life is much more difficult.
September 26, 201511 yr If you can't laugh in the face of death, what's the point? I just got a copy of A Small book of Grave Humour. I'll probably read it tonight, and laugh somewhere whilst readin'...
September 26, 201511 yr You can sit dispassionately on the sideline and say that 2015 never really was destined to be our year anyway. Or you can root for the team to achieve the goal of making the post-season, and take this loss as the stinging disappointment that it is. My head told me weeks ago to pick the first option. I'm still glad I went the other direction though. It's sometimes difficult to find real emotion in mundane daily life, and sports sometimes supplies it. / Better, at least, than seeking out someone who brings drama into your mundane daily life for you.

This sort o' thing reminds me i'm still alive, and i'm glad o' that. Also it doesn't hurt to credit the other team. They did kinda tag us for double digit hits and all.
September 26, 201511 yr Between the twins and the wild I don't know if I could be any more annoyed by former gophers.

September 26, 201511 yr Gott Verdammt es. Gebeulte meine Shin!Er ... I thought it was verschütten mein Getränk!

'It's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game, it's only a game' ... says one who may not have a job to go to after Tuesday.You can move to Bisbee, Arizona where I and supposedly 27% of the population don't have jobs. But seriously, I hope you aren't going to lose your job. Unless it was destined to be, of course. Edited September 26, 201511 yr by ScrapTheNickname
September 26, 201511 yr Twins blow a 4-1 lead late and lose 6-4. Jets blow a 3-0 lead with 7 minutes to play and lose 4-3 in OT. Seriously, why does whatever higher power that runs this Universe hate my sports teams so much?
