Not to beg or anything... But not a single like for this.

 

I thought it was good.

 

 

I went looking for the 'meh' button, couldn't find it.

I guess most of us are down with the idea that these game threads are kind of like sitting at the ballgame and shooting the breeze, but this post was more like the guy at the end of the aisle who is muttering about something and everyone else is afraid to ask exactly what. Good job, keep it up, and I'll read it after the game.

Not so fast, Lee Harvey. I totally rustproofed all that boilerplate with self-deprecation at the end. Also, I'm the guy at the game who the guy muttering at the end of the aisle is afraid of being out-crazied by, and who breaks the sacred vendor-customer fan relay by randomly handing a purchased bratwurst 90 degrees off course.

Cool... I got a pity like from Ash.

I was preparing a longer version of it, set to the tune of Stairway to Heaven, in honor of its greatness. But not now, you beggar.

Zackly. You are a perceptive fellow.

Willi's pull down the 3b line is involuntary manslaughter in almost any beerball league game in America.

You fixed it too fast. Damn you!

Pull some strings... We do need a meh button.

 

I also think we need some "game threader" badge that has to be earned. Maybe a "GT" that goes next to our names.

Not so fast, Lee Harvey.

 

Too soon.

Fair enough. Like I said, it was long, so I put it aside for later savoring, and missed everything past the middle of the seco

Sorry if I'm violating any rules here, but I thought this was pretty big news.

ESPN reporting possible 100 game suspensions for A-Rod, Braun, and 20 others. No Twins on the list.

No Rules on a Game thread... However for breaking news... You need a sounder or you can't print it.

Sounder?

It sounded overly sarcastic, but as I went on to say, it's actually tinged with admiration. He's figuring things out. Just like a lot of 23-year-olds in the majors for the first time have to do.

My guess is that whatever you wrote after "overly sarcastic" made sense, but the matter/anti-matter collision of those words made me dizzy. Wait. Coming into focus now. Yes, like 23-year-olds starting... well, anything for the first time. Present company early 20's excepted, of course.

 

Snark fail on my part. I'm not on the foot patrol of the Hicks Defense League, I'm the guy they're macing. Even though I think he'll be....I meant IS good! Gotta go.

Sounder?

 

Yeah Sounder...

 

Dramatic sounding music that leads into the announcement.

 

Your post should have gone like this... Dun-Dun-Da... ESPN is reporting that A-Rod, Ryan Braun and 20 others are possibly suspended for 100 games... No Twins on the list. More after the game. I'm CairoCrown reporting.

It's also possible that RB was baiting me on that topic, since I've been posting that general opinion only, like, once a day or so for a month now. He's wily, that one. Like a Coyote.

Gotcha. I'll keep that in mind for future posts.

BTW... I knew this day would come. I have Braun on my Fantasy team.

Is there really an East Grand Forks? That sounds to me on a par with "Lower Lake Tahoe".

Be careful about meeting your heroes, lest you be disappointed. I shook hands with Cecil Fielder and he was about the same height (but not weight) as Freddie Patek. I exaggerate, but not by that much.

 

I know what you mean, but it is also possible that Olivia might be more enchanting in person than we can possibly imagine.

Now he can be on your Fantasy DQ list.

Perfection... If Snepp could get us some game threader badges... I'd give you one. Welcome aboard.

You fixed it too fast. Damn you!

 

The forum doesn't like asterisks in image links.

 

 

 

What did asterisks ever do to anybody?

Absolutely. It's totally better than Grand Forks because, you know, it's in Minnesota.

You have completely forgotten how absolutely withering an "ew, he's OLD" can be.

There is... They have the Cabelas and the modern movie theater and a single row of interesting restaurants.

Isn't first offense 50 games?

Probably because it was in the second half of Nathan Hale's quote: "I only regret that I have but one asterisk for my country."[

Cool... I got a pity like from Ash.

So those.... count less? @#%!

 

Wait. Is this official board policy or just a projection from the forum's scouting department? Is there a park adjustment for people posting from the road? WTF!?!

Absolutely. It's totally better than Grand Forks because, you know, it's in Minnesota.

 

I'm born and bread... Er Bred... Minnesotan. Who moved to North Dakota... So I'm not really allowed to argue your point.

Not as good as the Power of Greyskull, but close.
