We are down 1-0 already? Not to worry. The Boston series has spoiled me.

One moment... Finding gameday, and distracted by food...

If Chiefisms are too difficult... What about Gilbert and Sullivan? New England is said to have societies for 'em aplenty (i forget who said it, but i remember reading/ hearing it...

Oh yeah... Weather... (looks out window) Sunny. Straight out of Lawrence of Arabia. The trick is not minding...

5. Sometimes less is more. 4. If that is the case, how can you tell? 3 days ago, Riverbrian wrote a fantastic game intro about the colour green. Not to be confused with the colour red. This thread became the coming green thing. And then the game started, and a trouncing happened. Not by ounce, but by the pound. You might even call it a pounding. 2 days ago, i wrote something, now lost in the sands of time, aka the game thread archive. It was probably trying to be clever too. But while well received, response was spartan. Like the offense in the game. But the Twins pulled it out. 1 daze ago, A long thread. It says it is hot. And people actually discussing baseball. In a game thread. I know. It surprised me too. And the wind blew. And the Twins won again, somehow. These are the kinds of games "good" teams find a way to win. I am out of my element. Not that i have an element, i suppose. So 0 dyas ago... or today, as some may say. there is final game this season between the Twins and the Red Sox. The game is the players to play, and the game thread is yours to post. With further ado, namely mountain dew, 'cause i like it, But ot each there own. What is your beverage of choice? And do you have a favorite Chiefism? Or pointless joke? Twins Pitching: Tommy Milone (L) Batting: 1. Eduardo Nunez ( R) SS 2. Joe Mauer (L) 1B 3. Miguel Sano (R ) 3B 4. Brian Dozier ( R) 2B 5.

I was being obtuse. Sorry.

A 1 to 3 inning?! Curds! Er... No whey!

No hurry. Take your time.

I give up. Where do you want to throw him a fastball?

Sano. As usual.

Is that set in Boston? I know Costner comes to Boston in Field of Dreams...

Red Sox announcers speculated Mauer would suit up, little knowing the can of worms they were going to open...

You entered... The TwinsDaily Zone?

Rosario hits the 5 hole.

I thought he meant Buck-ano.

Did Sano just catch a pop up?

Moxie commercial on the radio!

But Buxton got the bunt down. One out of two ain't bad...

Hearing it on the radio, i just assumed he had made his own alterations to make it more comfortable...

Fed and gassed. On th road for another hour plus... Y'all gotta keep the thread moving!

Got fooled by time zones again. Was in car, it was after 6, so i thought i would search radio for the game. It weren't a waste of time, as i found Prairie Home Companion.

Many thanks!

Mystic River anything like Mystic Pizza?

Please elaborate?

If i get a chance, i'll check out the the first and last, but alas, probably won't go out of my way. Good Will Hunting is appropo, and is an easy choice all around. Side note: i was there when they showed the movie at MIT, along with perhaps a couple thousand others watching it over the course of a weekend. It highlight the fine distinction between filmed in and set in... Rumor has it much of the recent Ghostbuster movie was actually filmed in Boston. Word is also that it is worth seeing.
