So what's the definition of a crooked number?

Anything other than 1?

5 or more

I am so making that up.

I think that's right

That’s how LaRussa explained it many years ago. 1 is straight; any other number is crooked.

If you get to 11 runs in an inning though, it breaks the system.

You ever look at it? Any why do you need seven remotes to change one television?

Brail buttons on drive through tellars?

Rajai (or someone) flies out, inning over

Don’t like not scoring after the triple. Even if we’re up 11-3.

by worldblee on Mar 17, 2009 3:54 PM PDT up reply actions  

Bizarre!

Gameday Audio just restarted on me and went back to Buan and Fosse when it was 5-0.

by Englishmajor on Mar 17, 2009 3:53 PM PDT reply actions  

It didn't restart.

You’re stuck in a time-space continuum.

IOW…

WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE!
