Over the past 6+ weeks, this team's inability to step on the throat of an opponent when given the chance has been infuriatingly frustrating.

Also frustratingly infuriating.

[mrtwinsfan]

Bremer tone it down pleez

[Aggies7]

Maybe Thorpe just needed time to get used to standing up the right way, being from Australia and all...

And when he throws his arm goes counterclockwise

[John Kelsey]

It's never easy.

Really? Because out of that forum was borne BYTO, which I founded in 2006.

 

BYTO was folded into Twins Daily in... 2011? 2012?

 

There are still posters on this site from the late 90s ESPN board.

 

RIP jew-scott, and shocker.

breaking balls break the other way there.

[Don Walcott]

I’ve seen one or two of the posters from the twins site here. That was always infested with trolls.

I didn’t even know what Trolls were before ESPN.

And we just found one of those late 90s ESPN posters.

Son of a bee I wanted to see him do it

ACDC going through my head...oy, oy,oy,oy

Not always. All the good posters left the ESPN board when I founded BYTO in 2006.

[Mill1634]

Fantastic outing of relief from Thorpe. Let's shut this down. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Lewis Thorpe is all smiles.

That was one hell of an audition for a prolonged role in the bullpen down the stretch.

[AZTwin]

I didn’t even know what Trolls were before ESPN.

I don’t even want to say my screenname from those days. I’m sure it would be remembered. I was young, and a troll

[MNT1996]

Not liking the Harper call here

No, I mean the forum on the twins actual website. Not sure if it’s even there anymore

[ashbury]

Omg this is the most daring move a Lewis has made since0DDF92B7-9B09-45CE-85B3-815D39CC160D.jpeg

 

[Whammy]

I remember when ESPN used to have a Twins site fan forum! I was on that forum constantly. Circa 2001!

Then I discovered BYTO and never looked back.

No, they pulled it down... last year? The year before?

 

And yes, it was a cesspool.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Price of Twins bulllen help just went

 

[drock2190]

I'd almost want to see Parker in this spot and thats saying something!

[DiscGolfer]

 

Not liking the Harper call here

Rather see May come in?

[TribeAZ13]

 

Here's something you should hear more often.

 

Thank You for your Service!

Appreciate it very much, but thats always made me uncomfortable...Did 2 tours in Corps, made it back alive (3 of my guys did not), all for a reason we were unsure as to why we were there in the first place..apologies for getting political, but my genereation had it good.  I have never been disrespected as a combat vet...WW2, Nam, Korea...those war vets are the ones im in awe of..I love the USMC, but not the nonsense overseas or the govt for that matter...k, im done...lol . But for real, much appreciated.

[Aggies7]

Watching that movie now, you wonder how many chargers would have been brought on the nerds. Breaking and entering, assault, surveillance etc

[MVP Nick Punto]

Is that where Cessa came from?

[tvagle]

 

I don't think Baldelli will let Thorpe pitch the eighth in a close game against the Yankees on the day after he was recalled (nor should he).

Ha!
