Shortly after your rap concert at the Minnesota Twins County Fair.

Well maybe if they hadn't flubbed my rider for god's sake! I asked for steamed buns! And egg whites in my sour! I don't get out of bed for charred accoutrement.

The Twins return home for a 4-game series against the White Sox which gets underway tonight. The Twins now have lost 13 games in a row, and the White Sox have not lost 13 games in a row. That’s the b

USAFChief – Chief is actually a really nice old guy. His bark is worse than his bite. Keeps us all in line. Secretly he still sleeps with a teddy bear and volunteers as a candy striper at local hospitals.  I also forgot to add, one of the funniest people on here!

 

Sorry Chief.  No snub intended.

 

I didn't have a chance to respond last night.

I think you misspelled "striper"?

Exactly.  That's why I  stick to calling people from Canada, 'Mounties'.  Although, that might just be women from Canada that I call that :-)

I probably shouldn't post this but I will anyway. I think the women would be "mountees" as contrasted with "mounters".

(If this is deleted by a mod and I get a warning point I accept.)

And I shouldn't post this either, but your observation is open to interpretation. :)

My birthday is on the 13th. My wife's birthday is on the 13th. We met on the 13th.

 

Make of that what you will.

When I logged on this thread was already on page 13. And the game hasn't started yet!? After a 13-game losing streak!? I've gotta read it all just to see what's up.

With the call-up of Buxton, the Twins now have 13 offensive players, that means 13 guys that are capable of putting the ball in play and getting a hit, NOT people you don't want to ever see again. As a matter of fact, tonight's lineup looks pretty much like the starting lineup will be in 2017 (minus the catcher, who will change) but I still don't like the order. Dozier leading off. Plouffe batting third. Polanco batting FIFTH!

 

Of course, we were hoping Suxuki would be left-behind in Cleveland, but instead they called up journeyman minor league catcher Adam Moore who would give Drew Butera a battle for most years on a major league roster but fewest at bats and lowest batting average. He's cheaper than the million Suzuki would've cost, can probably catch behind the plate, and the Indians sure don't want to give the Twins any kind of PTBNL that could haunt them in years to come, I guess.

 

The joy is Ervin Santana has 13 total victories as a Twins hurler and now will seek his 7th win this season, tying his mark from last season. Who knows, he might get to 10.

 

If Ervin can get us thru seven innings, we can bring out Pressly and Kintzler and save the game, since both have been off for a couple of days and faced 13 batters between them in their last joint appearance.

 

The real story will be how the Twin Cities roads and light rail handle the flurry of Thursday Night sporting activities that hit the town, amidst the Minnesota State Fair that has Billy Bob Thornton in the bandshell and Alabama in the grandstand. What will be the total amount of people on-the-town tonight!

 

Myself, am sitting here hoping the Twins stop the streak, as my fantasy team only ahs their stats happening on this lite baseball activity day!

He wasn't creepy on Pee Wee's Playhouse ... that was an AWESOME show!! Hilarious!! But then maybe some of the subtle adult humor hidden in the show went over your head?

I liked that show so much I used to record it to watch it later in case I missed it. Now the only TV show I watch is Twins baseball. When I can stand to do that.

I was going to point out that I was the first to change my location to "Proxima Centauri b or bust" (before Craig did), but then I noticed I actually put "Proxima b or bust" so I guess I lose on a technicality. Fixed now.

Edit: I still win. The "b" is properly lower case.

No, your punishment is that the post (and jimmer's which preceded it) shall remain in public view, as testament to a certain failure of imagination already alluded to in a couple of gentle posts in the meantime. But yeah, this is about as far as this particular subthread ought to continue, IMHO. :)

That's something you don't see often.

Oh crap. The game has started? With all the hijinks and folderol going on, I missed it. What did you see that you don't see often? They've already won?
