We're at the lake
lots of things to do here.
A lovely story:
One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who didn't whine, nag or bitch. That would be me....
But that was a long time ago and it was just that one day.
The end
I thought you were watching the Hawkeyes, Sue.
My sister went there for awhile, we went down there in the early 80’s. She was on the pom-pon squad, and it was parents’ weekend – my Dad got to go down at halftime and be on the field… dads shaking pom-pons in the air with their daughters.. only she forgets to tell Dad how to dress, so he picks out this garish Red leisure suit with white piping.
Yep, they were playing Indiana.
Dad went to Northwestern mind you, and wasn’t Polish. He just had this ridiculous red suit, and lacked from clues at times.

M.I.S.T.
If the Cubs still have a chance, no matter how small, it’s still Go Cubs, damn the math and pass the KoolAid.
Two hits to the PITCHER?
Who was batting less than .150 going into today’s game?
Goodness.
Thanks for leaving him in too long, Quade.
I didn't believe it last August, but it turns out that love survives.

you were anxious to see Scott Maine?
I hope that he lives up to your expectations.

To be fair
There wasn’t a hard-hit ball in any of those hits – they just all fell for singles, though.

Quade
Too late to the mound. Iowa ties Memphis 7-7. Both managers already tossed.
If a quality pitching start is 3 runs and 6 innings, then a quality hitting day is 1 for 4.
The Mets have more slobs than we do
and everyone of those frigging bloops this inning was a hit
I blame that inning on Theriot, with an assist from Miles

Yes he has. He's
mentioned his in-laws before too.
A lovely story:
One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who didn't whine, nag or bitch. That would be me....
But that was a long time ago and it was just that one day.
