fred mcgriff says i just struck out. boono. :1orglaugh
hmmm, i think you should know that i despise everything about the minnesota twins. from their uniforms, to the stadium to their players. i even hate kirby puckett. kent hrbek is a punchline i use while insulting someone. just fyi.
Yeah, but we took the AL Wild Card, so I was a little not sure. We took 4 AL Central's since 2002. :thumbsup:
And just so you know, I used to hate your 'Injuns' quite a bit too, but it was always kind of hard for me to hate a team with such a....hhhuhhumm, mediocre post season record...lol :1orglaugh
Guess who took the most World Series' out of the central? Ok 1, but still the most!
If you're referring to my beloved Twinks, we won TWO, (87' and 91')for the record. (Only damn team in MN to ever win a world champ...lord knows the Queens can never win)
I don't know, but they kept saying that A LOT of players are leaving if he leaves because he is like a father to them.
Somebody on Mike and Mike this morning (I think Dicky V) was saying NO WAY, that Steinbrenner was bluffing because JT is so loved by the Yankees. :dunno:

The secret ingredient? MY BALLS
So, what you're saying is...Senob is up to bat, but...I'm on deck?
(Sorry, baseball pun...I won't bother making an "in the hole" joke, although it would be nice)So, what you're saying is...Senob is up to bat, but...I'm on deck?
You could also use some other baseball metaphors like getting to first base, going all the way, and getting a grand slam. Of course whiffing and striking out are also a couple of those to. :1orglaugh
I hear Buck Showalter is available. George has done it before.
Don't worry, Chef. I strike out alot, (in baseball and otherwise) keep your big stick at the ready!So, what you're saying is...Senob is up to bat, but...I'm on deck?

he was referring to the central. the twins have not taken any since the move.
and..... the twinks! :rofl::rofl::rofl:
I hope they don't replace Torre.
Works for me.
I don't think I could stand to go to Boston. I'd have to kick people in the naughty bits because of their accent.
But then, I'd miss out on some Irish pubs.

Joke away. I'm unwell today and need a diversion.
Yankeefan, As a fellow BRONX buddy, I would like to see Torre go out winning another title. Thing is I do believe Torre may be the person that tells Steinbrenner he doesn't want to get a new contract. This past season had to be a bitch on Torre, and I really do not believe Steinbrenner put out a "win the Indians series or your gone" ultimatum. Those two will sit down and figure things out. The "media" just needs to stop making stories out of a few words.
That could be said for many stories out there, not just the whole Torre/Steinbrenner stuff.
He's done if they drop him. Would you want to go anywhere else after leading NYY for 13 years? I think they said on ESPN the other day he led the only dynasty in MLB since free agency began in 70'. He's a lock for the Hall too.

Well, you got to take into account that the man is pushing 70.

so, he isnt clemente. i was also pissed that lasorda was allowed to go in early.
I don't mind if somebody goes into the hall early if it's almost guaranteed that they will never play or work at the job their going in for again. (Unless it's in media broadcasting or something similar where they don't work on the field of play) I thought most halls of fames put a time limit to be inducted to make sure the person didn't come out of retirement and screw everything up with all the info they have with them in it. :dunno:
IMO, Tony Gwynn is doing an outstanding job a broadcaster on TBS for the division and NLCS. He was a bit slow coming out of the gate, but lately has been doing an exceptional job.
Too bad TBS does not have the world series - I can't stand Joe Buck and Co.(unless FOX went to Thom Brennaman).
