August 27, 201610 yr Author 200 post lag time and you came up with THAT?? I've spent all day at a convention in Dallas. My brain is like cream of mushroom soup. Open my skull and throw in some tator tots and you'll have a ready made bowl for serving at Minnesota Church Gatherings.
August 27, 201610 yr I think September 1 is a good time to end the regular season, eh MLB? To think we have over a month left of this humanity...
August 27, 201610 yr Bullpen needs to hold together for just two more innings, assuming the Twins offense scores some runs.
August 27, 201610 yr I've spent all day at a convention in Dallas. My brain is like cream of mushroom soup. Open my skull and throw in some tator tots and you'll have a ready made bowl for serving at Minnesota Church Gatherings. We've started swapping out the cream of mushroom for cream of chicken. Bold, I know. Blasphemous, even. But give it a shot.
August 27, 201610 yr Game thread: 15 pages generated. Twins pitching staff: 15 runs generated. Coincidence? September headline: "Berrios/Dean Outing Causes Server Fire, Internet Outage" http://www.tus-fire.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Fire-guts-computer-server-warehouse.jpg Or is that 'Internet Outrage'?

August 27, 201610 yr Poor Alex Wimmers. Makes his major league debut and not even folks diehard enough to be in a game thread at this point in THIS game in THIS season notice. His MOM prolly tuned out 4 innings ago.
August 27, 201610 yr I'm kinda partial to Mila Kunis style. Now I know why Ashton Kutcher divorced Demi Moore!
August 27, 201610 yr Now I know why Ashton Kutcher divorced Demi Moore!DUDE! Spoiler alert, next time.
August 27, 201610 yr I looked at this and then I looked at mine. I'm over 15,000 Where did my life go? Well spent in the process of accumulating 10,896 'Likes" ? http://images6.fanpop.com/image/photos/36700000/Uncle-Scrooge-McDuck-image-uncle-scrooge-mcduck-36753956-500-375.gif
August 27, 201610 yr Wimmers with the 1-2-3 inning! Finally, something positive!What is this nomenclature? Six runs in the inning, all told?
August 27, 201610 yr 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?It'll probably look like the Twins haven't won a World Series in 57 years!
August 27, 201610 yr Twins score two, pull within eight...Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Bailey?
August 27, 201610 yr It'll probably look like the Twins haven't won a World Series in 57 years!Now now now I was a young lad of 5 when the twins last won. I actually have a very vague memory of it happening because my dad was quite happy (he's obviously a twins fan and obviously got me into this mess)

His MOM prolly tuned out 4 innings ago.I was gonna say something about it but then my search for a sleeping Corgi picture made me pretty tired. That, plus he's Alex Wimmers.
August 27, 201610 yr Lah-who,Zah-her. Held 'em to a one touchdown deficit. Not bad for a presea... Oh. Yeah. That's not 'til Sunday. http://degruchy.org/assets/posts/fbi-hacking/picard-facepalm.jpg
August 27, 201610 yr Tonkin's been pretty bad as of late. Then again, who hasn't been terrible?meh, I'm ready to move on from Tonkin. The strikeouts are nice but he doesn't do anything else well. too many HR's allowed, can't hold a runner worth a crap. Seems to let tons of inherited runners score.
August 27, 201610 yr Three Pistols Saw them July 30, 1991, five days after I became a dad for the first time. My friend made a bootleg of the show. Not good quality but OK none the less. Sitting with him in the first row in the balcony of what was then called the Walker Theater, he always wanted us to not talk to him during the show so his recording device wouldn't pick it up. Three Pistols was the first song of the night and I don't know if this chick was drunk, high, both or trying to be ironic as she was really loud and was leaning over the edge of the balcony (then she sighed and she fell from the balcony?). Anyway, on the recording there is an audible, from me, JUMP or STFU. True story.

Gord refused to speak to anyone... Like he was pissed to be there. He just sat on a table in the corner. The rest of the guys were real cool. Dan Aykroyd was also backstage. It was Dan, my wife, some other person I don't know, A record rep and the entire band. I think Gord was pissed because he just played for about 100 people and everybody started showing up at the end for Page/Plant. Americans just didn't get a chance to discover the Hip.

True story.Was there, Gordie walked out bald as a cue ball, the lights came on and they went right into Three Pistols and didn't let up all night. One of the things I remember most was the three people in front of us being the only ones sitting down and seeming right put off by it. Hopefully their life got better over the years.
August 27, 201610 yr The good news is my grandchildren prevented me from watching the last two games! The bad news is I don't have enough grandchildren to cover the rest of the schedule!
