Nerd city - Baseball edition

Winston and I had this IM conversation this weekend. I was watching the Brewers play, and we have a closer named Eric Gagne.

Me: Brewers bringing in Gagne?

Winston: gagner in French means "to win"

Me: really, that's cool! He is French

Winston: well he better win then

Me: Go gagne

Me: ya Brewers gagnge… Gagne gagne

Winston: yeah, I forget how to conjugate it:

je gagne

tu gagnes

il / elle gagne

Me: Brewers gagne

Winston: Gagne gagne is right though

Me: so who "gagne"? Gagne gagne?

Winston: he wins. Gagne wins. Brewers Gagnent

Me: nice

Winston: man, I know so little French

considering I took it for 7 years
