You could employ those with any team! My Twins "tru-isms" are exclusive to them, For eg.,:

You're a Twins fan, if you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 18 inches of ice, and sitting there all day hoping that the food will swim by.

 

[Mocking You]

Wow, I just watched Nagorata get banned.

My "nick"(Like "Barney" was a "nick" for Bernard, which happened to be Mrs. Lisch's late husband's name also) is "The Closer" and/or "The Exterminator." I'm also referred to as "The Rembrandt Artist," as I paint the corner on all threads, backing the wolves/ette's into the corner, as they howl........

i love it when you sneak in a few eephus (ephus) pitches. like Satchel and Rip Sewell. Tewks threw a few too -

wikipedia -

Bill "Spaceman" Lee threw an eephus referred to as the "Leephus," "spaceball," or "moon ball."[11] Pitching for the Boston Red Sox in Game 7 of the 1975 World Series, the Red Sox were up 3–0 when Lee threw three eephus pitches to Tony Pérez with a runner on base. The third resulted in a towering two-run home run and the Red Sox would go on to lose the game 4–3, costing them the chance for their first World Series championship since 1918.[2]

Other pitchers known to have employed the Eephus pitch include: Pedro Borbón,[12] Yu Darvish,[13]Casey Fossum (called the Fossum Flip[14]), Steve Hamilton of the New York Yankees (the folly floater);[15] Liván Hernández, Phil Niekro;[16] Orlando Hernández, Dave LaRoche (LaLob), Vicente Padilla (dubbed the soap bubble by Vin Scully),[12][17] Satchel Paige,[18] Pascual Perez (the Pascual Pitch), Kazuhito Tadano,[19] Bob Tewksbury, [20] Carlos Villanueva[21] and Alfredo Simón.[22] - wikipedia -

I remember it.

In 1975 I was actually rooting for the Red Sox because the Reds had beat my Pirates in the NLCS.

In 1975 I hated the Big Red Machine.

I'm so sick and tired of the major networks only broadcasting Yankees and Red Sox games.

Watched a Jays game this morning and three others today...two of which had the Red Sox and Yankees in them. Just watched Texas beat up the Red Sox (Chi Chi pitched) and now Yankees and A's.

we had satellite starting in mid-late 80s, and i would surf different baseball and hockey games nationwide; all channels and premium also. basically every channel out there. the dish would move every time you switch satellites. even then, there were about 20+, i think. each with up to 20? channels. it was too much, i could never settle on one thing because i thought i was missing something else. no dvr, remember.

you are from canada, so i'll give you a break on the BJ's -

sloppy lately, but the Cardinals won Sunday ! - atrol:

Of course, your town just got microwave ovens in the late 1990's, and CD's at about the same time-and I don't mean "certificates of deposits." What's your hurry, in moving into the 21st century, Mayor?

Actually, saint john w, I'm fond of the late 1970s when everyone in my town had rooftop antennas and only 3 channels.

We were lucky to get the game of the week on Saturday afternoon on NBC and Monday Night Baseball on ABC.
