Tolbert looks pretty damn good when put up against Nishi and Florimon.

I was watching the Brewers/Pirates game a couple of days ago and the Pirates' pitcher fell while scrambling to grab at a comebacker. I commented that he Hrbek'd the sod because he dug up a chunk of it as he slid to the ground.

I'd like to nominate the term for our Twins Glossary (if it's not already there).

Hey.....don't think I didn't consider you for the role, espescially in view of the unfair attacks on Bruno.

Molly = New Twins manager Paul Molitor
Mr. Creativity = TJSweens
Mr. He Tries Too and It's Pretty Good = SMF
Mr. If SMF's Attempt at Creativity is Better than Pretty Good I Steal It and Make It My Own = TJSweens

Boyd, I thought you'd take this in stride. If it bothers you, I'll delete it from the glossary. I remember someone asking you about missing punctuation a few years ago and I think you said you sometimes don't have time to proofread your posts. It was probably Trekkie or Lynn that asked.

The only "Boyd Principle" to me is "avatars of hot women".

I like the Boyd Principle.
