Ah, Timlin.
Children, until we have taught them better, will be perfectly happy with a seasonal round of games in which conkers succeeds hopscotch.
This is very good to see
It’s only a matter of time
May The Red Sox and all their fans get food poisoning and all collectively crap their pants
Let's try again
Walkoff thread mojo!

Won't work
There is an hour lead-time before that stuff kicks in.
Not that I know anything about it, of course.

So you should take one every hour of your life...just in case?

that hurts just thinking about it

And every four hours....

I just lost a round of Text Twist on the word "vermin."
I should’ve gotten that, considering I’ve been watching the Red Sox for five hours.
Yuck. Vermin.

And I've been talking about mice for the last five hours.
Children, until we have taught them better, will be perfectly happy with a seasonal round of games in which conkers succeeds hopscotch.
Yuck. Mice.
And rats.

This is so predictable
Keep it up Timlin
You are Jim Mecir, Keith Foulke, Post injury Santiago Casilla and Justin Speier all in one
May The Red Sox and all their fans get food poisoning and all collectively crap their pants
...and the mouse said, "Look, get my ass out of this trap-"
“-and I’ll get you a leadoff walk, which, according to Gameday” said the mouse, “gives you a 24.5% chance to score, and thus, win the game. SQUEEK!”
Now ask the raccoon.
Let's Go Fremont! clap clap clapclapclap
HOLY CRAP!
COME ON RAYS!!!

I don't understand what that graphic on the base path means.
It’s always the same number. It would probably help if I had the telly un-muted.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
I think it's the number of feet in the lead

By feet I mean the measure not the end of the leg
By lead I mean the distance from the base not the radiation proof element

Yeah, the red means they're too close to first to steal
and when they’re in the green, that’s the “go zone”- the lead they need to steal the base.
Let's Go Fremont! clap clap clapclapclap
I think they call it the "lead tracker."
Something about how far the runner is off the base.

We're the Red Sox, you have to give us the call.

Francona was just reminding the ump that MLB has already decreed the Sawx are to win again

Then the ump said "you're the one who brought in Timlin"

I can't believe I had to follow most of this game on my PHONE.
If I don't comment on your comment how will you know you are completely wrong? -Rocktopus
But are you in LOVE with your phone?

It's the feel good story of the year.
Or whatever crap that commercial says.

Holy shit. The runner at second was on third almost
before the pitch.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
Woohoo - winning run at 3B
thanks for starting the runners, Maddon

I would have bet my house that TB wins when he brought in Timlin
I don’t own a house but I could have bet yours

I would have bought a Credit Default Swap from you.

Gosh, what a bad throw by Drew.

Two great games in the NLCS so far.

The post-game interviewees...
…rarely look directly at Sager.
I wonder why…

If I must watch an endless game...
I’m sure glad it ended this way.
New Post-Game Thread!?

I don't smoke...
But I’ve been looking for a way to become addicted to nicotine and I love cappucino.
Maybe new Commit lozenges are for me!

Put the "nico" in "nicotine" - sssssssmokin'!!!!!
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
G'night y'all
and yeah, not a great throw.
Let's Go Fremont! clap clap clapclapclap
It didn't look like he cared all that much
Which would be odd, given the situation.
