Kansas City Royals at Minnesota Twins, Sep 9, 2008 8:10 PM EDT
The Royals get a golden opportunity to play spoiler this week as they open a three-game series against the Twins, who, as you may know, just play the game THE RIGHT WAY.
Your pitching matchup features Brian Bannister (5.56 ERA) versus Nick Blackburn (3.71 ERA). Although he hasn't been able to secure a mythical pitcher win in awhile, Banny is sorta on a nice, or at least non-horrible run here, having lowered his ERA about half-a-run since topping out at 5.96.

it is one thing that will be remembered about today
but the game tonight against the Twinkies will be etched in our brains for all of eternity. We will be able to recall all the little details about today when we think about the game. For example, I am having grilled sausage, with corn on the cob with my wife, while enjoying a Blue Moon. Memories……

I have to take issue with Splitt and Ryan here.

Splitt got Ryan to admit that there was more hustle on the Twins part, but he refused to name Gload.

I live in the Twin Cities and only get to see the Royals when they play the Twins and the difference in quality when you consider they both come from cities of the same size is frightening. I’m going to the games tomorrow and actually taking the day off on Thursday so I can go to the day game and I’m dreading the abuse I’m going to get for supporting these guys.

its interesting that they've made Wallace likeable
not really sure why

Well, we've only seen a little bit of him
Generally, until the lawsuit ep, we see him looking at Michael skeptically (understandably so).
I think he somewhat represents the “normal person” perspective, a la the viewer, at least so far. Yes, Michael’s incompetent and clueless, and stupid. But Wallace sees, as we all do, that Michael just wants (despite himself) to be a nice guy, and is, deep down (Tobyphobia aside).

Maybe. Not crazy enough. I’ve been thinking over the 2008 Royals/Office thing for a while now.
Andy and Jan are good candidates for Hoagy.
Gload would probably be Dwight.
Gload or Grudz are Creed

well, if there is any silver lining here
it will help keep the ChiSox out of the playoffs

I would love to see Delmon Young beat the shit out of Torri Hunter for some reason.
Hunter’s a good player. I just don’t like him. Don’t know why.
