Ron Gardenhire and Rick Anderson Discuss the Final Harry Potter Movie

by RandBall's Stu on Jul 15, 2011 10:02 AM EDT in WTF

"Hey, Andy, you seen any of those Harry Potter magic movies?"

"Yeah, some."

"What's the deal with ‘em? Wife called and said there were a buncha kids in wizard costumes waiting in line at the theater last night."

"Ain't that somethin'?"

"I don't get it. I tried watching one of ‘em back at the hotel on a road trip one time, and it didn't do a thing for me. Just some British kid yelling ‘Experience a boner' or something and waving a stick around."

"Didn't Lew Ford do that awhile back?"

"No, no, but I remember what you're talking about. He was into that Dungeons and Darkness game. Kept saying he was a Level 6 Mage and wearing robes around the locker room."

"Oh yeah. Thought Torii was gonna kill him."

"Crazy world, Andy."

"Isn't it?"

"You catch any movies over the break?"

"Nah, just hung out at home. You?"

"Took the fam to see that Transformers movie."

"The one with the space robots?"

"Yep. Total dogcrap."

"I suppose."

Always pegged Gardy for more of a Smokey and the Bandit man, myself

Gardy would be the Bandit

And Smokey would be Joe West.

I'm a proud fan of the Minnesota Twins and Dallas Cowboys!

I miss Lew.

The real question is which players will be going to the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn premiere. And whether that would lower their trade values.

I think Slowey might have seen "Terri" instead.

You’ve probably never heard of it.

"Experience a boner?"

I think I had the wrong idea about these movies altogether.

I’d like to see Ozzie and Gardy do a movie review show together.

Remember the one time the Twins had that Harry Potter movie marathon?

It got them nowhere.

No wonder they lost that game

They stayed up all night. That would have happened even if they watched a “Leave it to Beaver” marathon. BTW, the marathon comes to 14 hours and 30 minutes which means that the marathon would have lasted from about 11 PM on the previous night to 1:30 PM the next afternoon.
