GM's thread about nothing (23 Viewers)

Catchers and pitchers report in 17 weeks.

In the Twins' case, it's just catchers.

 

[Idiot Boxer]

The only Julian I know if is King Julian from Madagascar.

So gay or lemur.

 

[Homer J Simpson]

Julian = Gayer than a mustache ride at the Vatican.

Julian Caesar was a pretty good king

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Julian Caesar was a pretty good king

Julian was a man of unusually complex character: he was "the military commander, the theosophist, the social reformer, and the man of letters".[4] He was the last non-Christian ruler of the Roman Empire, and it was his desire to bring the Empire back to its ancient Roman values in order to save it from dissolution.[5] He purged the top-heavy state bureaucracy and attempted to revive traditional Roman religious practices at the cost of Christianity. His rejection of Christianity in favour of Neoplatonic paganism caused him to be called Julian the Apostate (Ἀποστάτης or Παραβάτης "Transgressor") by the church.[6] He was the last emperor of the Constantinian dynasty, the empire's first Christian dynasty.

I always figured King Julian for a gay lemur. NTTAWWT

 

[Bob Sacamano]

My wife keeps throwing out the name Julian for a baby boy. I think it may sound too much like Julie and suck as a kid to be called a girl on the playground. I said, how about Julius as a compromise, but this doesn't alleviate that problem, it just gives me satisfaction of Caesar. She says it reminds her too much of Orange Julius. She's not even pregnant, unless draining me fully last week took, so it's pretty moot right now anyway. Julian - yay or gay?

I have a friend named Julian. I think it's a fabulous name.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Of course, there's a pretty good chance he's reporting with pitchers and catchers NOW.

 

[Disco Stu]

Does he have a Twin who's only a catcher?

Shark pool talk. I am desperate for a RB in a 14 team league where all my guys are on bye except one. Who should I pick up and start:

Toby Gerhart

Brian Loenard

Fozzy Whittaker

Khiry Robinson - part of committee?

Shonn Greene - supposedly getting 15 carries a game going forward?

Patrick DiMarco - Dodds has ranked 35th with 46 yds receiving

All good. Just seemed like a fitting response.

Second best is pretty good in life. I tell my boys that all the time. Look at me, I've been second best at just about everything. Cal embraces the concept. Dylan does not. You can tell the loser right there.

Losing sucks balls. You keep fighting the losing fight, Dylan. #### them.

Losing does suck balls. My point is if you try your hardest but come up a bit short, usually you are still in pretty good shape. Unless you are playing basketball with those Aborigines that behead the losers of course.

 

[St. Louis Bob]

Just had lunch at Hopdoddy. Damn. Great Buffalo burger, good fries, good Pumpkin Porter from Four Peaks. I couldn't be happier without a hummer, a nap, and a game 7 on Halloween.

Yeah, and I'm the gay one. Did you at least drink this with your pinkie out, Serge?

I ordered the Seasonal Beer. That's what I got. I think the pinkie happens regardless.

I had two pumpkin beers at Trailhead on Saturday. I usually just get the blond but thought I would try something new. It was alright.

Mine was excellent. But it had absolutely no pumpkin flavor.

Should be an interesting day at work today. I'm pretty sure I'm still drunk.

Yeah got the boys off to school and went back to bed.

Just saw that and edited my post. Picked him up.

GM - you have company. My son and his friends are at school today dressed up as the girls basketball team.

Arranged marriage?

Makes for a great "WHAT THE HECK FLEX PLAY!"

Cowherd leading the "Ortiz is on the juice" charge this week. Listening to guys call in to defend a 38 year old hitter who couldn't hit 2-3 years ago who can suddenly catch up with 98 MPH filth is good times.

yeah, he almost has to be dirty. maybe his head will blow up like Bonds did.

Does Mauer have to report when the rest of the Twins' Catchers report?

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Boys wore their halloween costumes to school today because apparently a 5-day school week is too tedious this time of year, what with all those taxing and strenuous conferences we have to endure (seriously, Coop's conference with his hot-for-teacher lasted maybe 10 minutes). I mentioned Kellen's costume, yes? Well....

So, you know...maybe there is some truth afterall to all that 90210 watching.

at least you're never going to have to worry about him knocking up some chick in high school.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

He chopped his K rate drastically in 2011, and has held it since. I don't know if that's due to juice, or if that can even be accomplished via teh juice.

I dunno, sometimes hitters can make an adjustment mid-career and make a leap. Look at Bautista.

If 38 years old is mid-career, how long is this guy going to play?

Maybe not mid-point of career, but far enough along in his career where a sudden spike in ability is improbable or unlikely.

The wife and I have been invited to a Halloween party...tomorrow night. It was kind of out of the blue so we're scrambling for costumes.

I'm going as this guy because I'm lazy.

Then it was my job to come up with something for the wife. We thought about making it a couples deal and she could go as Flo from progressive but that would require buying a dark wig.

I came up with idea that she wear some sort of sorceress or fairy costume (no offense, GM) but with eyeblack and jersey and go as "fantasy football" har har har. She actually liked it. Then I got the brilliant idea that she could wear a little skit with fishnets, stripper shoes, a mardi-gras mask and the jersey and go as "fantasy football". She liked that too.

He lost a whole bunch of weight too. But I'm sure Cowherd has his finger on the pulse.

Nice to see octogenarians still dressing up like idiots.

KEV > Made some pretty big changes to the Condoms franchise. Your boy Core-Darrell Patterson deserves a chance to play WR, alongside Denarious Moore. Looks like Jonathan Stewart's bruised uterus is healed enough to carry a football, but I think we should take a wait and see approach. I've got Tannehill in there as an OUT OF NOWHERE Flex Play. Also, defensively, I think the refreshed Colts taking on the Titans and their 8th string QB is sagacious.

stryker>every one of our receivers is hurt or on a bye, so I stuck Josh Morgan in the lineup. Feel free to go with a day-to-day Greg Jennings or Eddie Royal, who's in a walking boot.

I'm leaving town for a few days so I won't have a chance to see if anyone gets healthy.

IB, I note that I have two Titans in our lineup. Feel free to make changes.

I have a silent partner that does all the work. Every decision I've made regarding the team has been horribly wrong.
