jama, I can’t tell what’s less attractive on a man - those sideburns or the pencil-drawn facial hair thing Liriano’s sporting. Stay as you are, my friend. Those burns shall pass.

Of course, who am I to talk. I still have my suede leather bell bottoms.

Funny you say that, the lady friend was wondering why Mauer was pitching also, and then said that Blackburn is now her second favorite player. I guess that was a hint that I am in need of some sideburns.

Here’s my vote for the montage song:

fasolamatt - could you tell Mauer and Blackburn apart? Was watching on the tube, can’t find my specs, and at first I wondered why Mauer had his elbow iced up in the dugout. Blackburns indeed.

How about Little Nicky’s defense? I’m sorry about all the things I said about you Nicky…

The highlight, however, was Batgirl getting a shout out from the Fox announcer. He referred to Mauer as “The Chairman” at least once. I was hoping when they scanned the dugout he’d point out “Cuddles” but, alas not.

Delmon Young just gunned down Asdrubal Cabrera at the plate, C-Dog and I were very impressed. Greetings from the home run porch, where C-Dog is attending his first game. He’s rooting for the Twins. I’m not.

Ummm…hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I’m pretty sure that after 1985, all 1980’s training montages are required to include one of these two songs:

The awkward hugging on the beach scene and/or pulling a sled in the snow with a fat friend on the back are also legal requirements.

I don’t know, Jon, I think this one might make a better marathon montage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yJ_86fqX5k
