1. Good to hear from trish, I thought she was dead.
Joe Mauer for the amazingly busy Dr.Don who is spending lots of my Company’s money this week. By the time I am done with these claims, I will spend close to $1 Million.
And I am on a tight budget.
Damn it is fun spending someone else’s money!!!!!!
At least you sound better today. The other day the prospect of having to spend that much money — even someone else’s — sounded like it would be a real bummer for you.
ben, you are going with Nishi? His brother used to be a boxer and his Father was his manager. His father had diarhea. Nishi’s brother is the slap happy Jappy with the crap happy Pappy.
Me, JB and Doc.. were in the chat room tonight.. and we were down 5-2 in the 3rd inning.. and doc said.. dont worry ben and JB.. blackie will get the win and we will win 8-5…. and well we all know the final score..
CF Revere, Ben
2B Casilla, Alexi
C Mauer, Joe
RF Cuddyer, Michael
DH Thome, Jim
3B Valencia, Danny
1B Hughes, Luke
SS Nishioka, Tsuyoshi
LF Repko, Jason
Gonna go with Big Jim Thome today against Buerhle.
** Sounds like 2 roster moves will be made after the game… Delmon will be activated which means an outfielder going back to AAA Revere or Tosoni.. Also sounds like Miajres will be going down to AAA to work on his stuff.. sounds like Chuck James will be recalled.
I’ll go with that Joe Mauer Fella.. Swarzak on the mound for us
Ben
Lexi
Mauer(DH)
Cuddy(3)
Danny
Tosoni
Nishi
Butera
Repko
I will go with Plouffe.. why not.. i will be in the chat by 830ish or so.. my little brother has a basketball game tonight.. last one of the season before playoffs start.
Also, I just saw the forecast for Target Field tomorrow. 102 degrees with a 120 degree heat index. Take care of yourself and your family. That temp is ridiculous.

I got back home about midnight last night, long frikking weekend but I sure enjoyed TF. Ate my first Murray’s Steak Sandwich. Add in a couple of the walleye fingers that my daughter could not finish which were also excellent. Thanks to all of you for your thoughts and advice at TF in regards to what to drink and to stay cool. We were lucky, our seats were under the overhang on the 3rd base side, so we had shade, but damn, hot is still hot. For your information, I had 1 beer, 1 lemonade, 3 waters, and 0 cigarettes. I done good. Thome’s blast was horrendous.
By the way, I am picking Delmonster the Youngen for today’s first game.
hahaha yes doc i do.. have AC in my chat room.. its called sitting in my room on my puter with the AC on…
and it wasn’t the heat it was the damn humidity that killed.. hopefully being in the chat with you guys we can win tonight.. Let’s hope we find a diamond tonight!
Tuesday update….I just got home from working out in the hot fucking heat to adjust some hail claims. It is a bitch out. (more to come every frikking day this week.)
But I am now home, finishing up the paperwork, (In my AC chat room… )and will close out the claims tomorrow.
It is so fucking hot, it is melting the nuts off the steel bridge that connects the main drag between Moorhead and Fargo.
