Lifelong Chicagoan. 

 

For Me, Twins Daily makes me feel a part of Twins fandom here in "Enemy Territory"

 

I feel it ... although not lifelong in Chicago, been here long enough that the natives accept me as native. You can take the girl out of Minnesota, but you can't take the Minnesota out of the girl ... forever a Twins fan, much to some of my friends' eye-rolling consternation.

 

Did I ever tell the story of when Kenny Williams used to live in my building, and had a parking spot next to mine? When I discovered that, that's when I put the Twins sticker on my car. Not sure if he ever noticed it.

You should have had your car repainted with Twins logos all over it. Now THAT would have been noticed.

Welcome! Game threads are fun here ... game talk and just about everything else. Let’s hope we have some this year! Sad reality is we may not

Okay, log rolling? I could see how that might be ... interesting.

[deanlambrecht]

1.) Where are you from? Born (1968) and raised in Bloomington Minnesota.Lived in Massachusetts for awhile (would love to return but career and family are here), and have lived with my wife in the same home in South Minneapolis for 20 years.

2.) Age Range? 52

3.) What brought you to Twins Daily? I was an enthusiastic follower of Nick Nelson's blog, and he led that crew here when he consolidated with the OG TD Krewe.

4.) Highest level of baseball/softball played? I was afraid of the ball by 6th grade.Since I have no sprint capability, poor hand-eye coordination, and a crappy arm, a growing fear of being hit by a pitch ended my "career" before I was 13.Otherwise, though, I was a solid prospect.

5.) Favorite Twins Player, and favorite underappreciated Twins player, and if you want, favorite current Twins player? Jamie Carroll.Max Kepler.

6.) Favorite non-Twins Daily site/authors?No particular author, but I'm a MLBTR junkie.I used to really enjoy Craig Calcaterra but I don't like how NBC ruined his blog so I eventually lost interest.

7.) Favorite Twitter follows?I don't Twitter.Not sure why because I'm a news junkie, but the format kind of bothers me.

8.) Other interests outside of baseball.Live music.Plus I'm a workaholic (criminal defense lawyer), so I spend a lot of time working which I greatly enjoy.

9.) Favorite part of Twins Daily... forums, blogs, articles, topics... wahtever you like.I enjoy it as an overall resource - impactful baseball reporting that doesn't take itself too seriously.

10.) Tell us what we can do better. What features or other topics would you like to see in-season or out of season?I always want more articles by the original crew (not to knock any of the other excellent contributors at all).Oh, and it bugs me that any post I make that has more than a single sentence, for whatever reason, doesn't recognize the spaces that I put between each sentence.If anyone can tell me if that's a weird setting on my computer I'd appreciate it (MacBook user, running Chrome, but I think it happens when I use my work PC as well, so...).

11.) Have you been to any of the Twins Daily "events?"I was at the first winter event on 6th and Hennepin, which was a blast.No good reason I haven't been to any others, frankly, and I always feel a little bad that I don't attend.

[rdehring]

 

Days later.

This makes me about No. 179.

Should anyone actually get this far and read it, drop me a note. Appreciated.

1.Madison, WI (Yes, as you might expect -- Go Badgers, Go Pack.) Now living in Plymouth, MN..

2. 77 last Saturday. Started following baseball around '49. A color baseballcard, drawing of of Joe DiMaggio, got me started.

3.Browsing. Looking for more Twins info than the Strib offers. Came here from Wisconsin in 2002, didn't give a hoot about the Twins (or the Brewers for that matter) but caught on because, along with the Saints, they're the only game in town. I'm stuck with 'em.

4.Played baseball from around 8 to 15; then fast pitch softball through high school, U.S. Navy and in Madison recreation leagues, average level of competition 4th best league in a range of dozens. Never hit over .250 in any of them but as a catcher when there were few others who wanted to play it, I was tolerated annually.

5.Joe Mauer, Eduardo Escobar, Max Kepler, Luis Arraez, Taylor Rogers.

6,NA, radio and TV.

7.Don't do Twitter. Did Face for a while to keep track of my son and his family but dropped out over a year ago. They asked me why, I said "I don't like the way you're doing things." Don't miss btw not doing any social media. This is close as I come.

8.Guitar (novice), motorcycles (veteran), house cats (2), aforementioned Badger football and basketball, the Pack in third place, politics (at times when I can stand it).

9.All of it; most, anyway.

10. Keep it positive. Help pull the Twins through to the playoffs.

11. No. 

 

Hey, Fritz.Just read your comments now that Seth brought this back.Are we gonna have ball this summer?Stay safe!

Use only one space, instead of two, after sentence ending punctuation, and it will show correctly. It's how the site is programmed, or something like that, so we 'olders' have to get used to the single space that we learned back in typewriter days.

[Rutjers]

1.) Where are you from? St. Paul, but have lived in Sioux Falls, SD for 25 years. Hard to believe I have now lived in SD longer than MN. But still consider myself a Minnesotan.

4.) Highest level of baseball/softball played? 9th grade JV. Our school cut nobody from JV. I feel like we had 60-70 players on the JV. That was fun getting into one of every 3-4 games, and not even getting many reps in practice. I played HS golf the next year.

[thuuuuney]

5.) Favorite Twins Player, and favorite underappreciated Twins player, and if you want, favorite current Twins player? 

• Favorite Twin period is tough but I think I'd go with Johan Santana.
• I know we didn't underappreciate him, but Jason Kubel did not get the recognition nationally that he deserved in his time here.
• Favorite current Twin with a bullet is Eddie Rosario. I really hope we don't lose him.

6.) Favorite non-Twins Daily site/authors? Probably Lavelle or Aaron Gleeman.

 

7.) Favorite Twitter follows? Recently the account "Friday Beers" has been very funny and Rex Chapman always posts great videos as well.

9.) Favorite part of Twins Daily... forums, blogs, articles, topics... wahtever you like. I'm still new here but the front page articles are great and the topic page where I post also is filled with great content.

 

10.) Tell us what we can do better. What features or other topics would you like to see in-season or out of season? Other than making it a "secure" site, I can't think of any other improvements. 

 

11.) Have you been to any of the Twins Daily "events?" No but I would love to go once this is all over! To those in the future I'm referring to COVDI-19.

I did this once about 2-3 years ago, but it was during the offseason and well, it's been a long time ago... Let's get to know each other a little bit... Who are the Twins Daily readers and contributors. Obviously don't tell any more than you want to... here are some questions to consider answering, with my answers:

 

1.) Where are you from? I'm from Perham, MN, home of the Yellowjackets. Currently live in Warroad, MN, Hockeytown USA... Been here for 21 years, and don't feel like you need to get any more specific than you'd like.

2.) Age Range? (I'm in my 40s, lower half, easily.)

3.) What brought you to Twins Daily? (I was at SethSpeaks.net, and me and the rest of the TD guys consolidated to create this fun-filled place)

4.) Highest level of baseball/softball played? (two years at college, Concordia in Moorhead)

5.) Favorite Twins Player, and favorite underappreciated Twins player, and if you want, favorite current Twins player? (I mean, Kirby Puckett, of course... Underrated... Matt Lawton... and current, well, probably most enjoy watching Eddie Rosario though having had the opportunity to meet so many of the players, there are a lot of very good people in the organization.)

6.) Favorite non-Twins Daily site/authors?

7.) Favorite Twitter follows?

8.) Other interests outside of baseball. 

9.) Favorite part of Twins Daily... forums, blogs, articles, topics... wahtever you like.

10.) Tell us what we can do better. What features or other topics would you like to see in-season or out of season?

[Platoon]

 

I know exactly where Longville is ... I spent a couple of summers at a camp on Little Boy Lake.

And that road is a stunningly gorgeous drive in fall with a motorcycle.  

[Platoon]

I grew up on a farm south of New Ulm, and have lived in a couple very small towns in the immediate area.That said I have managed to cross about 46 of the states, and quite a bit of Canada. After awhile it all blends together.

 

I always thought age was simply a number, so I was astounded in reading about the recent medical issues in the world that I am "elderly"? I guess I should have noticed when they started giving me Senior Discounts without carding me.

 

I played town ball baseball into my 20’s, obviously poorly or it would have been longer. I combined the unique blend of being able to hit neither a curveball or a fastball, with a lack of foot speed! But I played years of slow pitch and coached and umpired years more of baseball through all ages, up to adult.

 

My favorite Twin is probably Harmon, but there’s a lot to chose from. I agree with the thought of Greg Gagne as under appreciated, especially since he is so under appreciated I didn’t think of him till someone else did!

 

I have no idea how I discovered Twins Daily, but that phrase puzzles me since there were others on here already,sort of like Columbus found out. There is no favorite part, but in the past I was pretty fond of GT, but I do miss the snarkyness of the bygone losing era, that was combined with references to obscure knowledge. Some of that allure has sadly been replaced by baseball discussion.

 

One of my favorite bloggers was Ed Thoma, I say was because he seems relatively inactive during the shutdown. Plus he pointed me to some excellent non baseball books by Bill James, if you are a true crime aficionado try "The Man on the Train".

 

Baseball is still the same game as always. You ‘see the ball’, ‘hit the ball’ and with the exception of the Twins IF you ‘catch the ball’! That said it is discussed in different phraseology today, and the means to "count" results are much more intricate and detailed. But they all end up pointing in the same directions. Some things just won’t or can’t change.

 

I wish I could see the game coming back this year in a meaningful fashion.at all levels. But I don’t  see that happening, nor do I see TV ball in empty neutral stations, with a faux WS very satisfying. That said, GO Avondale Twins.)

[Channing1964]

#1) I was born in Sioux Falls and my parents raised me in Mineapolis. #2) I'll be 57 on my next birthday
#3)Since I live in Phoenix now I had been looking for some time to get connected with a more local source of in depth Twins coverage. Even though i dont always agree with all the diverse views of the team, there is no better way to interact with informed and loyal Minnesota Twin's fans than this one.
#4) I was one of the captains of the 1982 South High Tigers baseball squad and i got cut as a walk on at North Texas State in the spring of 1983.
#5)Its hard to pick a favorite all time Twin....I have so many Carew, Oliva, Pucket, Hrbek, i appreciate what Gladden brought...Then theres Hunter, Santana, Mauer, Nathan, Morneau, Cuddyer...theres something to love about any era in my life. As far as an underappreciated Twin...from what I have read lately its got to be Rosario. In a lot of ways Mauer was as well. In Joe's time everybody wanted to complain about all the money he was making. I don't know who they thought they were going to replace him with but in my opinion he was worth every penny. especially when you look at what guys like Machado and McCutcheon are making now. We were blessed to have Joe Mauer.
#6) i think this is actually number #5 but my favorite non TD author is probably Aaron Gleeman on the Twins level and Ken Rosenthal on the national side. I read a lot of the Athletic and i listen to Gleeman and the Geek and Jason Stark and Doug Glanville's podcast called Starkville.
#7) i dont really do Twitter much except to check what outragious stuff the President has to say.
#8)I keep up with local Arizona sports mostly because i work at Chase Field and State Farm Stadium. With the pandemic I have become even more of a baseball nerd. It seems like a good way to pass the time and stay out of trouble. I am so happy they finally started the season. I am also a big Hockey and football fan. I miss the North Stars and I love the Vikings.
#9) my favorite part of Twins Daily is the game threads...it connects me to home and all my friends just dont get it when i watch the game and keep texting...the Diamondbacks just aren't that exciting. I do love Escobar and i was royally pissed off when Falvey traded him but he is a joy to watch play and i love seeing him do good no matter who he plays for.
#10) obviously being in Phoenix I dont attend any TD events unless you want to count listening to Gleeman&the Geek podcast as an event.
