Winner:

 

 

It's Applebee's.

 

Makes sense, some chain restaurants have the kind of atmosphere where employees are really encouraged to express themselves...

How the heck did we win that one?

You get to keep 1st and 2nd inning runs the whole game

Kintzler had some serious movement on his pitches tonight.  If we need a closer tomorrow night, who gets the call?

I think you know

 

Finally ol Jerry gives us a corner

 

Please get Abreu here.  Pleeeeeeeeeeeeze....

 

Please don't let Garcia come up as the winning run.....

bit of a time delay all the way to Hong Kong, I guess

Amazing how much better the bullpen pitches when they see guys around them getting DFA'd and sent down.  

Okay, let me see if I have this correct:

 

Pressly struck out the side.

 

Kintzler struck out 3 of 5 batters.

 

I've written game threads that were more believable than the way this game came out.

Yes, the uniqueness of everyone wearing flair really stands out.

I think it's the other way around -- it's already tomorrow there.

Wow, Kintzler really earned that one. Kudos.

Heh.... I had to repost this just because I made myself laugh...

 

<cue dream sequence music>

*camera cuts to Molly, in the dugout, checking his mobile.  Zoom in to see he's following the TD game thread.*
*cut to close up--lineup card in hand, pencil poised--  hand begins to scrawl: "W-i-l-k..."
*cut back to Molly close up-- wry smile and barely perceptible chuckle*

Molly (sotto voce):  That oughta make their little heads explode...

 

I think you know

 

With this bullpen... It would be #39

I'm a half-day ahead of you guys, so I already know what happened.  But I just pretend to play along, so I don't sound like Nostra-dumba$$.

I was severely chastised for showing a picture of him not long ago

 

I haven't

Have too!

Back in first place.  MLB network still not believers....along with many others.  The problem is that we have beaten bad teams and lost to the good teams.

If I get back to the States this summer, tho, I'm taking Brandon out for a chicken dinner for that performance tonight.

 

That was a dang good job.

 

I was severely chastised for showing a picture of him not long ago

I seem to recall some (okay, a lot of) mocking but no chastisement.

c'mon.  clean it up.  This is a family website.  Posting vulgar pics is out of bounds, and you know better.

Context, young man, context.  All about the context.

Applebee's had this sign up

 

I must have waited for 25 minutes before an employee came by to wash my hands.

Hehe I know, all in fun

My friends way back when used to give me grief when they noted a similar pattern of success, and the lack of it, when I asked for girls' phone numbers. The solution was simple, really. New friends.

The beauty of Twins Daily game forums, perfectly summed up in one sentence. Where else can you find this kind of appreciation for the finely nuanced differences in giving people crap?

I'd "like" this, but I'm out of "likes," and frankly this post just isn't worth going back and "unliking" another one to free up a "like."

And I love that someone found an image of an autographed Ron Davis picture. How did that conversation go? "Can you autograph this please, Mr. Davis? I used to love watching you crush imminent Twins victories like a deranged elephant stomping on cute puppies!"
