I'm here! Preparing for the fantasy football draft
I have drafts on the next three nights. Whoo-hoo!
I have two drafts at the same time tomorrow night.
Yeah, that's worse.
You gotta pace yourself, DK. I never order two beers at a time any more.
Well hey there, 24 guests, 6 bots, and Beau! What's the haps?
Me too!
Welcome to the party! I believe some people may be giving up on the season. I suppose it's Labor Day Weekend, too, so maybe everyone's just really drunk.
I'm not actually paying attention to the game. I'm just here for the conversation. Last night was a mess. I'm still feeling it and it's 6:30.
heh, me too. These junior faculty parties are killing my liver.
Yikes. Well, at this point, it might be best not to pay attention to the Twins in your condition. I'm not the kind of guy who gets all GOSO all the time, but...the Tigers have won five straight and all...
Bert claims that Blackburn's losing streak has built character. Oh, well all's well that ends well, then! Because I'm pretty sure a winning streak would have built a possible playoff run.
I know my character has been built -- mostly around the bulging veins in my forehead.
How shocking that someone like Bert is amazed by air shows.
How shocking that Morneau didn't get on base.
whaddya mean no one's around?
Well, y'all weren't when I wrote it, anyway.
What to you mean, "whaddya mean no one's around?" ?
What do you mean, "What "to" you mean?"
That is indicative of a night of light sleep due to a dozen college kids staying over on their holiday weekend.
You need to nip that sh!t in the bud right now, Rhu_Ru! Those damned kids should be partying at some skanky apartment in Columbia with all the rest of the college-type kids.
Can't have a rally without a DP. Well done, Twins batters.
d'oh. GOSO (gomez out, season over)
cr@p, I knew Blackburn would eventually get a K; I was hoping to take it lazy today. *sigh*
A strikeout for blackburn, we're going to win this game.
I haven't been paying attention to the TV since I was on Skype, but it looks like Futurama is in some sort of Lord of the Rings type world. Anyone know which one this is?
I wonder what the cause of Morneau's late season slumps. Hard to make a pennant run when your run-driver-inner isn't doing his job.
Dick: "All we've been doing all these years is guessing. It's not like we know anything."
Ah, so fucking true
Mauer working on leveling out his BABIP. Unfortunately
Weight room, Cuddyer.
The announce team's really bringing the pointless splits today. Random Twins hitter vs. Indians in 2009! Cuddyer on Sunday! Smell the relevance!!!
The Sunday split for Cuddyer cracked me up. Clearly days of the week affect player performance, how else could a team do so badly on Mondays.
Ha! Indeed. Actually, they're on a two-Monday winning streak!!!!
Well, I play better on Saturdays than Sundays for rugby since I tend to go out on Saturday nights. Of course, I'm on the third team for a college club instead of getting paid, so I don't always put rugby first.
I'm surprised - not that the Twins were 0-for-2 with RISP, but that they HAD two RISP up until now.
Well done, DSPAN2!
did dick just say "spanks a single up the middle" ?
It's a nice change from the overused "drives"
I guess I didn't realize that the ball had been naughty.
I balls naughty singles.
what up, painter?
My weight. How 'bout you? Did the fire scotch your plans to hang in ABQ for the print-making class?
Yeah, that's a done deal. For now, I'm a texas house husband. I'm on the short list for next year, but still not accepted, won't know until april if I'll be going back. The wheels fell of the bus of my life pretty quickly, but the good Dr. and I are pressing on.
Say "hi" to your better half for me.
more time for brewing, meat!!!
*checks pulse; still alive*
That was a good bunt. Nick, were you paying attention?
It was the key to the inning.
I've come to take matters into my own hands.
way to go, dude :(
apparently, Cuddy wasn't listening to me.
I would love to be a presenter on Top Gear. It looks like those guys have so much fun.
aauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
was there a chance to get the runner at home?
Good lord.
That. Was. Awesome. /goso
Diet needs more ruffage.
Your 2009 Minnesota Twins, everyone.
I guess that ends Mighty Mouse's win streak.
yeah, suddenly this game has become exciting for at least ONE team at least
sweet, teh suck keeps on a rollin'.
No errors? How the frack is dropping the ball while making a tag NOT an error?
On the bright side, I have a mighty fine pastrami sammich in front of me.
You and your tasty sammiches. I'm jealous.
Costco sells a pretty passable pastrami for cheap. A slather of whole grain mustard, some cheese, some onion, a couple o' slices of bread and you are in bidness.
On the other hand, I am in my office.
I should eat. Might help this overall feeling of wanting to be dead.
yea, the dry heaves are pretty hard on the system. Better to have a little something in the system to bring back up -- to protect the internal organs.
Bangers and mash - mebbe some mashed peas....- should do the trick.
Baked beans on toast and a ginger ale with bitters. You'll be a new lad.
That give me an idea - breakfast for dinner. I'll be back later.
Out-cab =/= the greatest trade evah.
Well Morneau's definitely the guy I want up with a chance to tie the game right here. /snark
the slump has to end sometime, right? Right?!
maybe not this year, anyway
MVP. MVP. MV, who the hell am I kidding.
Mauer's all about "good wood."
that's what SHE said.
You were on fire yesterday in the game log. I was laughing out loud last night when I returned home from the Fair.
thank you, kind sir.
that's no joak.
just taking it one day at a time, trying to help the team.
(naughty word alert!)
Man, that was a set of U-G-L-Y swings by the mounted police.
OK, who left this stupid drum kit here? (S'posed to go under Doc.)
w00t!
Wasn't Spooky in that one?
What can I say? I just know how to wear pink.
E-6
Yes, Rhu_Ru?
It's a road game, so he's charging you with the error, shortstop.
Who writes your stuff, doc?
Henny!
Yeah, dick, that was the straight change, not the gay one.
Not that there's anything wrong with the gay change-up.
particularly if pitched to a switch-hitter.
Hey, look! It's prior-to-Prior!
MOR-A-LES! MOR-A-LES! MOR-A-LES!
so, after he homers with Harris on board, who plays CF? _elm_n??
who cares? If we lose, or he ties it up and then we lose...
GOSO.
It's not GOSO, but I can see it from here.
GOSO!!!
Pitching was cold, bats were hot last week. Vice versa this week.
Baseball is dumb.
The Twins are at .500 for the millionth time this year. We really do have to be approaching a record.
Thanks for bringing your magic touch to sunday this week, spooky! Can you take it international tomorrow too? ;-)
I really do have a singular touch, don't I?
