This should be your signature in any Hill/Murray thread...

I'm telling ya... I'm not a big fan of his ballclub, but is there any way we can get CarGo and Ozzie Guillen in the same dugout? Those two are press GENIUSES.

Oh, the fun we could have!

Not since Burnsie have we had a guy like that.

After a game last week Ozzie was asked if he had any regrets about bringing some reliever into the game.

Ozzie's response: "I only have one regret, I got married too young."

Little too much info there Ozzie but hey, It keeps you in the news and the play of your team out of it. YES, he is a genius.

While never immortalized with his own verb, just the same Uncle Burnsie will live forever as a KQRS classic...

One of the best parts is the last 2 words he mutters at the end...it was just perfect!

A great big thrill in my life (sad, sorry little life), was a good 12 years ago or so while I was working at a bank in the Skyways of beautiful downtown St. Paul, and I got the opportunity to sell flowers with Fox 9/KQRS mega-celebrity Jeff Passolt - whom, of course, does an absolute SPOT-ON Jerry Burns impression.

So Passolt and I are standing out in the Skyway selling these flowers as part of the American Cancer Society's Daffodil Days fundraiser, and we're supposed to be "competing" against the other banks in the Skyway (I think Norwest had Norm Coleman, and 1st Bank had Stan Turner or something). Passolt is selling like a man possesed... He's yelling and screaming, chasing people walking around on lunch, "BUY SOME DAFFODILS!!! GREAT CAUSE!!! C'MON GUY - YOU LOOK LIKE AN ATTORNEY TYPE, YOU CAN AFFORD IT!!! "... Stuff like that.

One guy notices Passolt, and in passing says something to the effect of "I'd buy them from Coach Uncle Burnsie, but I can't buy them from you", so Passolt walks up to the guy and without missing a beat, in his Coach Burnsie voice says (edited so as not to get me banned) "Buy the g-damn f'n flowers ya sugart!t".

The guy took out his checkbook and bought an entire case for the office.

Twins still with 0 hits thru seven innings.

Gavin Floyd with 8 no hit innings so far against the Twins.

Mauer breaks up the no hit bid with a one out double in the ninth.

Crashing back to Earth...

No, this is not a police mugshot.

But he is the man who has been identified as the reason for not signing Frank Thomas for 300 grand.

Jason Kubel?

You gotta be kiddin me.

2008 Stats:

Kubel: 29 Games, 108 ABs, 4 HR, 18 RBI, .241 AVG. .389 SLG, 1 GIDP
Thomas: 29 Games, 104 ABs, 3 HR, 16 RBI, .212 AVG, .346 SLG, 4 GIDP



There ya go... on a level plane. Is it worth signing the same player with a nasty case of clubhouse cancer? You tell me. If Craig Monroe keeps rolling, we'll both be proven wrong at the end of the year anyway.

Frank Thomas.

I see th players association is complaining about the fact tht nobody has offered Bonds a job.

I think he can still hit.

Lets get him in here to pepepr some balls at the baggie.

Make the deal incentive filled.

What's the downside?

Oh wait, how silly of me.......what an idiot...........what was I thinking.......we have Jason Kubel.

Jason Boofin Kubel.

You get Home runs and the Circus side-show attraction to sell tickets.

It's a win-win both ways.

I'm with on that PB.

Babe Ruth Rises From The Dead and Wants to Play for the Twins

I a shocking story out of New York, it was learned today that scientists figured out a way to get Babe Ruth to rise from the dead. Thats right. The Sultan Of Swat, The Great Bambino, The Babe himself , George Herman Ruth is alive.

Ruth has spoken only these words" I want to play for Minnesota".

The Twins response was predictable. "We aren't interested" a team spoksman said. "We have Jason Kubel and we wouldnt want to limit his at bats in any way." he added.

Twins fan and Minnhock poster Govs93 was relieved to hear that the Twins would not sign Ruth. " Kubel will hit .240 for this club and he is a key component to its success" Govs stated. "Who needs Ruth with Kubel around" he insisted.

Ruth could not be reached for comment regarding the Twins rebuff but sources close to the slugger thought that he understood how valuable Kubel is to the Twins but was never the less dissapointed in their decision.

Barry Bonds and Frank Thomas? May as well get Roger Clemens, too. How about Kobe Bryant,.....or O.J. Simpson,......they can probably hit a few out, too. Michael Vick may be ready in few years.

He's got a good shot at the cycle He's got the two hard ones out of the way, just needs a 2B and a 1B
