I would if I had my taser in good working order. I wore it out when the game was stolen from the Packers by refs, as usual, miles from the play Super, what did you say (in different words) about watching the game with me.

When we go out barhopping watching the games he doesn't even CARE who wins, the Pack or the Vikings. Knowing that, I always want to ask him about his meds but the guy is huge so I just let things slide and hoot like crazy at Vike fumbles etc. My next door neighbor (weird phrase..why not just call him my neighbor ?) is named Dave…and get this.

I don't know that adding the fifth player made this trade anything less of a good thing for the Red Sox or a concession by the Twins. Red Sox give: Jon Lester (P) Count Chocula (CF) Jed Lowrie (SS or 2B) Justin Masterson (P) Ryan Kalish (OF) Twins give: Johan Santana The Red Sox could give three or four more nobodies and I still wouldn't think it evened out. Apparently, reports state that the Twins want to have a deal done by the end of the day. Good, then I'll have a chance to be surprised by a turn of events that gets them Frankenbury instead of Chocula. [off-topic] Latest proposed Santana deal is apparently a 5 for 1 from the Red Sox.
