To help pass the hours until Twins Fest, Batling AJ sends the following missive:
I didn't know if I should post this in the DTFC room or with you, but since I believe there is a high quotient of "sass" involved, I think it would be fun to make a list of awesome Twins anagrams.For example, I know Lew Ford is Red Wolf - which sounds like a name he'd
use in internet chat. Twin Ski Jock is our newest addition.A helpful link is http://www.wordsmith.org/anagram
Batlings! Make it so!

maybe not the whole team isn't, but i wanted to contribute something appropriately negative for my unpopular beloved.
Posted by: Say Rah! at January 28, 2005 11:45 AMI don't know WHAT this means: MR LEW TO A TECHY
Heheheh, this one cracked me up ... SLEEKLY HO
Ok, I'll stop.
Posted by: mmmarkiep at January 28, 2005 11:52 AMI've always been horrible at deciphering anagrams, which makes reading this entries more challenging. But I couldn't resist adding my favorite player.
I'm a cuddly cheer
Posted by: Just Beth at January 28, 2005 12:16 PMPick no nut (in case he has a peanut allergy)
No tin puck (in case costner was thinking of making a hockey movie)
Count Pink (Count Chocula's colleague in the House of Kick-Ass)
And when he's misbehaving, just give him: Punk Tonic.
Posted by: Chris at January 28, 2005 01:03 PMThese are tough. I had to find a roster and checking letters to get half of them.
A Low Erect Myth
That name is great for anagrams:
Lew Met Thy Orca
Try Hot Mace, Lew
Lacy Wet Mother
Calm Her Wet Toy
The Cat, or my Lew?
Here's hoping it's true this year: SAME JOY

Posted by: YankeeFan at January 28, 2005 03:40 PMI'm still trying to decipher all of Yankee Fan's entries. I regret not putting the actual names on mine so that others would follow suit. Dang it.
Posted by: mmmarkiep at January 28, 2005 03:45 PMok last one (i promise) but this one is worth it:
Jason Giambi is
Mini Job Saga

Posted by: YankeeFan at January 28, 2005 03:50 PMHere's one for the Sox first sacker:
A LOOKER PUNK
Female Twins fan: God, Paul Konerko is ugly.
Female Sox fan: No, he's a looker, punk.
Phobic Dirt Sex,
Ilk
Ok, the only one I still can't figure out is "I go live, son." I may not be that bright, but I've got all my teeth.
Posted by: mmmarkiep at January 28, 2005 04:32 PMDidnt say it had to be a current Twin:
Idiot Wag Men Lick Zeus
It doesn't have to be Twins PLAYERS, does it?
"Uh oh, Mort, meet her Murphy bed!"
"My humper thumbed her hooter"
(okay, I'm either over-tired or plain immature, but that last one cracks me up. I'll never look at the dome the same way again)
With love from one of Batgirl's newest "Lintbags"

CARL ADOLPH
CPA HAD ROLL
ALLAH CPR DO
I've gotten the rest, but these ones are too tough for me:
A smitten in snow.
I go live, son.
glib rat
NUTS, JOIN MAUER!
Personal favorites:
ACORN INJUN
A NEAT JOHN
CORK EYE IS OK
But the best of all was:
EAT JOHANN
(also, ATE JOHANN)
Craig,
A smitten in snow = Minnesota Twins
glib rat = bat girl
The other one, well, I'm still stumped.
Posted by: mmmarkiep at January 31, 2005 11:42 AMOh, C'MON! Someone help me out.
Posted by: mmmarkiep at February 1, 2005 12:10 AMY'all suck.
Posted by: mmmarkiep at February 1, 2005 04:28 PMmmmarkiep,
I should have written them down. I can't remember what "I go live, son" was an anagram for, and now it is bugging me as well.
I know I know -- I suck. :)

Posted by: YankeeFan at February 1, 2005 05:31 PMThanks, y'all. You know y'all don't really suck. That was evil P talking.
