Posted by Batgirl at August 11, 2005 01:21 AMwith the chairman, all your wildest dreams come true!
haha.. that game was awesome.
Posted by: Renae at August 11, 2005 01:40 AMCarrying the load at the plate (despite a couple of I-walks), stealing a base himself AND squating behind the plate for 14 innings. "Chairman" hell, approaching diety rank if you ask me.
Posted by: JimCrikket at August 11, 2005 01:46 AMThe Chairman is good; The Chairman is great.
We surrender our will as of this date.
...which would make the slogan "Mauer is God"
now pardon me while I hide from the lightning bolts which I'm certain are headed my direction.
Posted by: JimCrikket at August 11, 2005 01:48 AMThe most feared lefty batter in the majors (on Wednesday) At least the M's bullpen pitched to him in the 14th. Deserving of BOTD for the rest of the season because the Chairman may have just saved the rest of the season for us. Look out Oakland!
Posted by: esls79 at August 11, 2005 01:52 AMall hail the Chairman!
Posted by: kafumbly at August 11, 2005 02:02 AMA hundred flowers bloom, a hundred schools of thought contend, Chairman Mauer at the plate, Newman runs home will send.
Posted by: sadgoatboy at August 11, 2005 02:14 AMAs the Chairman wrote, so the Chairman did:
"Nous devons nous lever et agir."
The wonder is that the player who is not only the best hitter on the team, but also the BODSHC's Boyfriend, should have even been in last place at this late date in the season. It was starting to look very suspicious.
Posted by: frightwig at August 11, 2005 04:40 AMfrightwig: perhaps Diebold had something to do with that!
The Chairman is good, The Chairman is great, Our gratitude will ne'er abate!

Unite under Mauerism!
The Chairman marches unstoppably to command the new great wave of Twins offensive revolution!
Posted by: MRG at August 11, 2005 08:01 AMYou don't mess with the Chairman. He proved why in the 14th inning. Lead us on, Chairman, and we will follow thee.
Posted by: Just Beth at August 11, 2005 08:24 AMThe will of the people of Twins Territory unites under the wise and undeviating guidance of Chairman Mauer!
Posted by: Jeb at August 11, 2005 08:49 AMLast night, the steadfast of heart were rightfully rewarded for their loyalty to the Chairman! Long live Chairman Mauer, our Great Teacher, Great Leader, Great Supreme Commander, Great Helmsman! (Dear Twins: Please make the Twins' Great Leap Forward at least marginally more successful than that of China...)

Nananananananana Chairman!
Chairman!
Chairman!
Chairman....
What about Lew? He knocked in the tying run and scored the winning run and he doesn't even get honorable mention? Joe totally deserves it after catching 14 innings and patiently waiting for LeCroy to strikeout everytime Joe was on base. But come on, a little love for Lew would not be amiss.
Posted by: E at August 11, 2005 09:56 AMShhhhh!!! Gardy might hear you talking positively about Lewwwwwww! (in quiet tones) Nice 9 pitch at bat Lewwwww! Good job!
CHAIRMAN MAUER PLEASE LEAD US. CHAIRMAN MAUER IS ALL POWERFUL. HE IS GREAT.

easy-peasy-inda-Sea-Town-heezy
Mauers-daChairmo-forSheezy.
Liberty, Progress, and Mauer.
Justice, Temprance, and Power.
Our Chairman is like no other.
The chairman is all-knowing.
The chairman is a just and righteous ruler.
The chairman gives shelter to the poor and downtrodden; he imprisons thieves and murderers.
The chairman will remain loyal and true to his allies in their time of need and he will crush with unrelenting force enemies and turncoats.
The chairman will go 4 for 5 with 2 walks and swipe a bag when his graciousness allows it.
All this is true, for he is the alpha and the omega; he is the chairman.

(I was at the game! In my Chairman T-shirt! After the game, some blonde woman was screaming "Joe Mauer is my boyfriend!" When I told her that Boo was my boyfriend, she looked at me confusedly. Oh well.)
