Article: Game Thread: Twins v Tigers, 9/29 @ 7:10pm CT

[Blake]

 

You and me both, ExPat. Once it hits 50 something degrees I'm freezing now... All of our Minnesota weather toughness was lost years ago. 

Speak for yourself. I've been out of MN for 15 years and I don't get cold until it hits 69 degrees. 

[TwinsCD]

 

You're two hours ahead of me and only on cup two?

 

Piker.

Geez, what do you call those who don't drink coffee?

[Mike Sixel]

wealthy?

Envious? Drinking coffee has become so ingrained in my morning routine that my body now acts exhausted if I don't drink a cup or 2 in the morning. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Geez, what do you call those who don't drink coffee?

I give up... What do you call those who don't drink coffee?

[twinsnorth49]

 

Note: It's the first 70 degree day of autumn in Austin.... So of course, sweaters, uggz, scarves, and flanel apparel is needed today.

I don't wear clothes when it's 70 degrees.

Flounder.

I don't wear clothes when it's 70 degrees.

 

uh. hmm. 

[twinsnorth49]

 

And no matter how many times people are told not to plug space heaters into cubicle outlets or surge arresters, they do it anyway.

[Blake]

On a more serious note, I really wish Kintzler were around for the back end of the bullpen.

 

Every time Belisle throws his high warmth I cringe knowing how easily that pitch can wind up in the seats.

 

At least Kintzler could hit mid-nineties with his four-seamer.

 

Yeah, I went there.

[twinsnorth49]

 

uh. hmm. 

Well I've got you thinking I see. It's best to stop.

Sounds about right. Even for 70 degrees up north.

[Blake]

 

I don't wear clothes when it's 70 degrees.

So, once a year, maybe late summer?

[Squirrel]

MY EYES! MY EYES! I'M BLINDED BY THE THOUGHT OF IT!

[Blake]

 

MY EYES! MY EYES! I'M BLINDED BY THE THOUGHT OF IT!

This would be the real "Great White North."

Summer?

 

Wut?

You know, Summer:

 

[twinsnorth49]

 

You know, Summer:

Is that what it's called? Ok then.

[Blake]

 

Yeah, yeah, I know that Kintzler isn't the first option for the back end of anyone's bullpen, but I have more faith in Kintzler than I do Belisle. 

 

But, it's done and the Twins have gotten this far, so, PLAY BALL!

Are we talking 70F, 70C, or 70K?

 

I presume you don't venture to them latitudes all too often...

[diehardtwinsfan]

Hey now... family site. Just because someone mentions 69 doesn't change that.

[twinsnorth49]

 

Are we talking 70F, 70C..

Yes.

[Riverbrian]

 

Call me obtuse, but it took me awhile to figure out you were talking about Rochester, Minnesota and not the home of our beloved Red Wings Rochester, NY

 

I still haven't figured it out. 

[Vanimal46]

 

MY EYES! MY EYES! I'M BLINDED BY THE THOUGHT OF IT!

 

I actually found a picture of North, and we can confirm. Some times he wears clothes.

I've met North. That actually is him!

[diehardtwinsfan]

That could easily be me in a couple months too. I haven't lived in MN since I was 4 though, and I turn 40 in a few months. Some of us are just born warm blooded.

[Blake]

I see he's wearing the essentials:

Hat: Check

Shoes: Check

Socks: Check

 

Everyone knows keeping head and feet warm is key to winter warmth.

[Rhino and Compass]

This is a very good baseball thread.

You should know. When it's winter in California, it's time to wear socks with sandals!
