  1. I have to say that MLB's solution to a 3-way tie WC situation is absurd, and it is the result of the absurdity of having a second wild card. I don't hate it, I just think it's nutty. 162 games ... comes down to playing 163 and 164, then a one-game playoff????? BS.
  2. You have taken my rough views (which I had thought were refined) and refined them into shape. Thank you.
  3. I thought I had my "OH CRAP" blocker set on my computer. I'll have to see if it's been disabled.
  4. The Twins backs are up against the wall yet again. Even if they "win out" they may not win the Wild Card, because 1) The Angels are playing the Rangers who just clinched, and everyone knows what happens to teams that just clinched: they let down mentally, they play a few reserves, they get ready for games that really matter. 2) Houston plays the Diamonbacks (nuff said?). 3) However, The Twins play The Royals who have also clinched (just not recently), so they may have have some let down issues as well. 1) Win game 1. 2) Win game 2. 3) Win game 3. 4) Stars align, chips fall, confetti gets thrown and champagne drunk - by one? two? or three teams? Fun to watch.
  5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGcWTIWYDMQ Werner Herzog eats his shoe.
  6. It's good to throw a ball every now and then, unless you're Glenn Perkins tonight.
  7. Brian, who will make us laugh in the off-season? Who? I ask you, who? Who?
  8. It would appear that we won't be eliminated until October. That is some way is a feat that can soothe us in January. Then again it ain't over until it's over. If we win 7, or 6, or even 5 (as others have said), we'll remain in the thick of it.
  9. You can move to Bisbee, Arizona where I and supposedly 27% of the population don't have jobs. But seriously, I hope you aren't going to lose your job. Unless it was destined to be, of course.
  10. Germans are famous for having words for just about everything, but this truly amazes me.
  11. Sounds like you had a nightmare. In fact, The Twins are winning 16-3.
  12. How can you joke at a time like this? Gotta basically go 8-1 if we lose tonight. Not likely. Oh well. Gee whiz. Crap. Something something.
  13. This is what we need.http://wtop.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Tigers-Twins-Baseball32-1023x1254.jpeg
  14. Now we have a ballgame. But we didn't want a ballgame. We wanted a laugher. We wanted a win made of one hit, no less.
  15. He got smacked around (in Sabermetric terminology we can all understand).
  16. I'm taking my like back. Oh, and by the way, tie game. ****. Can I say ****?
  17. It was a great book, all about a kid who fouled balls off forever and always walked, always walked, always walked ... until the last plate appearance of the year, when the game was on the line, he had to man up and ... and ... and ... got a hit!
  18. Anybody old enough (or whose school library stocked old books) to remember the kids novel called "The Kid Who Batted 1.000," written by Bob Allison (not that Bob Allison)?
