Joe Mays > Joe Mays

 

 

 

 

 

*mind explosion

Joe Mays contract extension > Joe Mays.

 

How'd that happen?

Sean Bergman gave up 111 hits in 68 innings with the Twins in 2000.

 

111 hits. Good grief.

Smallpox blankets> Joe Mays

Jeff Gray > Joe Mays

Jeff Gray > Joe Mays

Dark days. The team's marketing slogan for 2012: "Just Roll With It"

RonDL White > Joe Mays

 

Who wins a knife fight between Rivas and Astudillo?

 

We do.

And yet, 6 days later, Mays single-handedly won the only game the Twins managed to win in the ALCS. 8+ innings and 1 run.

 

Making Mays the answer to this question...who is the only Twins pitcher to win an ALCS game since David West in 1991?

I HATE being "that guy", but I'm just lost as to the original context behind this thread.

Do you know what nemesis means? A righteous infliction of retribution, manifested by an appropriate agent; personified in this case, by an 'orrible c***.... me.

For those of you wondering, this "_____ > Joe Mays" bit goes all the way back to the day of that game on the now-defunct ESPN boards.

 

Somebody melted down after Mays' performance and typed "______ > Joe Mays" for the first time (did it start with him being compared to Sean Bergman?).

 

From there, as the internet is wont to do, things only escalated and within a few hours, poor ol' Joe was being unfavorably compared to things like "Avian Flu", "Herpes", and "Carrot Top".

Let's call it a draw.

Those of us that participated in those boards commonly refer to them as the elysian fields. But yeah...

Elysian Fields> Joe Mays
