Lineup
2B Ian Kinsler
SS Michael Young
CF Josh Hamilton
DH MIlton Bradley
RF David Murphy
LF Brandon Boggs
1B Chris Davis

3B Ramon Vazquez
Chris Davis is a beast.

That's pretty much our best possible lineup
Though I do agree that Josh should get more rest.

no
swap Murphy and Davis, then swap Max and Brandon. THAT would be our best lineup.

Well I’d rather have Nelson Cruz in the OF, with Boggs on the bench.

Forgot that the game was on this early today
I have just enough time to go get some Blimpie’s, some Kit-Kats and be back in time for the game…

the one on Kimball in Southlake isn't too bad
what happened to the original now that people prefer other locations..? The original used to be awesome. I haven’t been there in years, so I can’t compare it to the others.

agreed.
I live an hour N of Austin but work down there. I hit Huts as often as the opportunity presents itself. In Dallas I always liked Club Schmitts over off Harry Hines. Greasy burgers cold ass beer and lots of folks who liked to wager on football hung out there
