2017 AL CENTRAL DISCUSSION

[Voltaire26]

That was the 2nd loss tagged to the Indians' bullpen. How does that compare to Detroit's?

Not even in the same league. I wouldn't worry about us ... Minnesota might not go away.

In my humble opinion it compares to muff diving

in my humble opinion its like muff diving Kate Hudson then Amy Schumer. One is epic the other not so much

Well, this could be ugly... The Tigers play a night game in Houston today, probably get into Chicago at 3 AM on Friday, then have to play a doubleheader that same day. Meanwhile, the Chisox have a day off today.

Then there's the fact that the Tigers are starting Buck Farmer in the early game Friday. Yuck.

Rosen was wrong then or just joking. I thought that seemed off.

Yeah they are dumb

They cherry picked a 1996 stat.

Said it was the twins first sweep in Baltimore since 1996. In reality it was first 3 game sweep since 1996.

August of 2015 we had an even more impressive 4 game sweep.

I am glad I didn't play football. Sure. Bo....wanted me.
But I got time to study the game of baseball. Crunch numbers.
Able to shut down little peckerheads like ifgy..they rely on ESPN...i know the game

Tell us doug...did you have a football scholarship to UM? Were you recruited...if so, out of what school? Or were you a walk on? My bet is that you've never been anywhere near a UM football facility - without a ticket in your hand.

Twins got their 25th win this year 1 month and 4 days quicker then last year

We call that progress

Doug was all set to go and probably would have played as a freshman. But he also had a summer gig playing semi-pro baseball and it cost him his eligibility.

Doug also had a gig playing in the showers of the football facilities at Penn State.

20 mins in the corner Iffy

I could have played for bo....bad knee. He pick Jamie Morris over me.tough break

You're more full of shit than a clogged toilet.

I dunno..part of me REALLY wants to believe him

I can picture how it all went down. Bo tells doug that Morris barely beat him out for a spot on the varsity (am assuming doug was too good for any freshmen team, even then). Of course, instead of Bo telling this very good running back (doug) to rehab the knee and continue to work with the trainers....he just tells him to fuck off and get off the field!
Come on....I've must have heard a hundred if I've heard one of these "drunk at a bar" stories. Different sports, even different occupations, but always the same.

Doug...your Bo/Morris/knee story isn't even close to the best I ever heard of these "I almost...." stories. One raggedy clothed bozo once told me (with can of beer held firmly in his hand) that he was, at one time, going to be named Plant Manager of a Ford auto plant - "but his alarm didn't go off that morning" , so.........
My response was, "So you decided to go into Laundromat management instead?"

You may not know this, but I bagged groceries at the same store as Kurt Warner, thus the Rams made me backup QB.

So those jackasses picked a 3 game sweep over a 4 game? Unreal.

Yeah any way to try and make a stat sound cool I guess lol

 

[dougplayer]

You guys drinking the hateraide...
Wasn't a walk on. More of a sweve..on. I had swagger to my stride. The chicks really dug it

 

[dougplayer]

Sure. Tigers have a late game on get away day!!
Any thing to make it tougher on the tigers.
Give Indians a easy road.
The league is embarrassed for the Indians and that 1948 thingy...... so league helping Indians. Holding the tigers down. 11 game road trip. Last game on get away day is night game. What a sham

A ''sweve''???? WTF OK, doug. Now blame spellcheck like usual.

I believe a sweve is when you're transitioning across several highway lanes while wearing a weave.
