Opening Day Extra Innings Overflow Thread

Royalsreview_tiny by royalsreview on in News

Over 1,000 comments, huh? Talk about setting the tone for the next 161 games. Now lets get a win and move into first place.

 [Note by royalsreview, 03/31/08 4:48 PM EDT ]

And now, you can consider this your postgame celebration thread as well. Trey-mendous work by the bullpen, including our man Tomko.

Star-divide

I'm amazed. Well done everyone.

Seriously though, I think we may have crashed the network if we had kept the original thread going. Post  new comments here.

Does anyone know where Grudz has been

It's weird not having him with us.

... if Gordon were batting

Last year I routinely...

...saw threads go over 1000 for Cubs games. Do we really need to set up an overflow? ...Of course I'm happy about the buzz and all. - TL

The Tigers have a strange affinity

for picking up Royals cast-offs and throwing them into the bullpen - Bautista, Durbin, Byrdak, Jamie Walker

True. Blue. Third Place in 2008.

You've probably been...

...waiting all game to post the "I-don't-agree-with-that-sacrifice" comment by virtue of our manager's love of the said. Am I right?! ;) - TL

A double should win it

with Soria pitching in the bottom half.

I mean, no offense to FOX

but there's no way that Bautista hit 101 mph last inning

PS

I think we need overflow before 1000. That page killed my browser. Did that happen to anyone else, or is my computer just old?

if gathright gets a hit

that will leave Guillen as the biggest drag on the offense
