If there’s a goal that everyone remembers
It was back in old seventy two
We all squeezed the stick and we all pulled the trigger
And all I remember is sitting beside youYou said you didn’t give a **** about hockey
And I never saw someone say that before
You held my hand and we walked home the long way
You were loosening my grip on Bobby Orr

Underrated song. Others I enjoy that might be under appreciated...Trickle Down, On the Verge, Greasy Jungle, Thugs. Also really enjoying the hell out of In a World Possessed by the Human mind lately.

Well, I've got a spleen. What's the actuarial hit for aftermarket vs. OEM?

Not much difference. Key is to make sure it's well vented.

Didja buy new, or used?

Tonkin's been pretty bad as of late. Then again, who hasn't been terrible?

Plumbing hooked directly into comments section of Reddit Trump articles, so good to go.

I wonder how much of that can be chalked up to over use. He and Pressly might both pitch 80 innings out of the pen.

[USAFChief]

I know Toronto has 12 runs, but honestly, it feels like more.  

[ashbury]

Wonder if any sabrmetricians have done a study on thread traffic after a horrendous bottom of the sixth inning?

[operation mindcrime]

Tonkin is a scrub! Just release him already!!!

Oh, sure, jinx our bullpen.

If you used that logic for the rest of the team, there might be only 5 guys left on the roster.

I mean, our decent players would get more ABs, so maybe it would be an improvement.

[operation mindcrime]

The Corgi looks like he has more stamina than our pitching staff!

Fewer guys on the field might improve the defense, too.

Yes.

 

The paperwork is... vague on that point, and the last thing I remember clearly is the waiting room.

I'm fining you 10 posts for not inviting us over for free beer and wine.

 

You're down to 485.

 

I looked at this and then I looked at mine. 

 

I'm over 15,000

 

Where did my life go?

Molitor deserves a bonus for maintaining somewhat of a straight face during this scheisse show.

 

[Danchat]

Well... let's see if preseason NFL football is more interesting. I think I'd rather watch the Browns' and Buccaneers' backups duke it out instead of watching this trainwreck.

[operation mindcrime]

I can't even like or quote posts right now. It really makes me mad. I'd like to use some more choice language!

[Aggies7]

I suggest drinking heavily. I'm on #4. Hey it's friday

Suzuki's got quite the cannon. Maybe he missed his true calling as a right fielder?

 

I say give it a shot

Fewer batters faced would be my recommendation.

Man, I woke up this morning with such a sore neck I had to slowly push my way out of bed on my hands and knees.

I'm 29. What is 60 going to be like?

 

Everything else will hurt enough that you will forget about the pain in your neck.

Game thread:  15 pages generated.

 

Twins pitching staff:  15 runs generated.

 

Coincidence?

I think you'll find a clue to this mystery somewhere there in your post.
