I like it when the Twins win. I like knowing that, if they should fall behind, there's a good chance they can rally and win. Which is a different feeling than last year. Last year, if they were behind by the fourth or fifth inning, I just watched something else. Last night I didn't do that, and I'm glad. They made it totally worth sticking around for.
I especially loved how just when Dick-n-Bert were mentioning that Ozzie said that Justin was the most dangerous batter in the American League, Justin goes and proves the point by smacking a bases-clearing double to take the lead. Yay Justin!

We say "Goodbye", and we say "Hello":
So just when I was going to bid adieu to Adam "Adam" Everett by talking about how he pretty much got "Wally Pipp'ed" out of a job and how I felt kind of bad about that because he seems like a pretty likable guy, if not really a great hitter, and to wish him the best of luck with whatever he decided to do, I have to pull back because he's needed after all.
And for what? Another stinking hand injury. It seem Alexi Casilla tore his thumb ligament and might be out for a long time. **sigh** I feel really bad for Alexi, but come on! Enough is Enough!
I wonder if MLB will allow the Twins trainers to purchase a couple dozen bionic hands.

Pitcherstress:
A co-worked asked me if I was nervous about tonight's game. I said, "Yes. Livan's pitching." And another co-worker chimed in with, "Are you having pitcher-stress?" YES! That's it exactly.
Dear Livan,
Honey, please, oh please, don't stress me out tonight. Please keep your Earned Run total for the evening as minuscule as possible. Zero would be ideal.
Love,

Good response to that post over at Alright Hamilton! Man, that post got my blood boiling.
Livan didn't listen to you...darn it!
Tricia,
Yeah, it got my blood boiling too. I'm sure it was worse for you because he called your blog out specifically.
I was so mad, I could've written an entire essay. I didn't because I didn't want to bore their readers.
Anyways, it'll be interesting to see if he revisits the topic like he said he was going to.

Okay, color me completely clueless! I just read Alright Hamilton's! blog entry. Both you (K-bro) and Tricia responded so well. I am a twinge more ghetto and will probably refrain. Thanks for that!
did you see that our "favorite" Boston player got traded to the LA Dodgers...
