    I did that exact same thing once... My buddies put crazy glue on her suit. I had to ride her to the supermarket, church, sporting events... Everywhere for a week. It was kinda cool... People got out of your way.

    Yes... And collectively they bill around $100 dollars a week. If I make a trip to Dickinson for a market visit. The gas expense alone will eat up a years billing from a Minot station.

    They are very big... But they don't quite own everything. There are still some ownership rules that prevent that... they are the largest media company by far tho. Nope He's out... He was an investor when the company started. That group sold and he's out. Now I can speak freely about him. He's a goober!!! It felt good to get that off my chest... I can be mean at times.

    Harvest is fantastic but I've got "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere" in my top three.

    Twins: SP Kevin Correia 2B Dozier C Herrmann 1B Morneau RF Doumit 3B Plouffe LF Thomas DH Colabello CF Hicks SS Florimon Mariners: Iwakuma SS Miller 2B Franklin LF Ibanez DH Morales 3B Seager 1B Smoak RF Saunders C Zunino CF Ackley Things to think about for tonight's game: 1. Think about Chris Colabello... He is due for a big game. He's the guy on the roster who really needs to have a big game. Maybe not tonight but he needs one soon. 2. Think Iwakuma... I discovered this guy... I had no idea who he was last year. I watched him throw a game and I said to myself... I don't care what his stats say... He can throw... I've said that about a lot of people and missed so I'm happy to say that I got it right on this guy... He's good. 3. Think about the Seattle lineup... It's not like they are tearing the cover off the ball but the lineup is full of guys who were high rated prospects when younger... players who just haven't taken the next step... Smoak was supposed to be a superstar... So was Ackley. Its not like they haven't tried to build an offense. 4. Think about the lateness of this thread... Sorry I was late to put it together. It's been a busy day at work. 5. Think about ZZ Top... In 1975 they produced the Classic Tune "Tush"... In 1983 they produced the Classic Tune "Legs"... To keep things in order... In 1991... They should have come up with a song called "Feet"... They didn't.

    I don't know either but that's funny.

    Deploying Yes... Maximizing? Epstein or Moyer have been busy... I will give them that... And I can even give them credit for that... They certainly appear to be trying... But it's still TBD if all this activity pays off down the road. The Cubs have not beaten the Twins at anything yet. Bigger Hole? Based on records last year... The Cubs drafted 3rd and the Twins drafted 4th. The year before that the Twins drafted 2nd and the Cubs drafted 6th. Both teams were in a hole... The bigger hole? We got to be talking inches if different at all. Right now... The Cubs have one more win than we do. Both teams have a long way to go and it was gonna take time to get back. Using the Cubs as an example/argument... In my opinion... Seems to be a preference for how Epstein and Hoyer are going about it over Ryan. Yet... nobody has fixed it... Yet.

    The Infield Fly rule. The umps blew the call yesterday... No doubt in my mind... They blew the call... The reason for the infield fly rule is to prevent exactly what happened yesterday. However... I'd like to push that call aside and focus on Justin's at bat. Justin blew the at bat and he did so in rookie fashion. Frieri was struggling... He started the inning with a walk and a hit batter... He then started Justin with a ball. 1-0 count... Struggling pitcher!!! Every veteran should know that you don't help the guy out by swinging at a ball with zero strikes in that situation. That pitch was quite a bit inside and that is why the bat was shattered. The only thing he should swing at in that situation should be the exact pitch he is looking for in the exact location he is looking for. 2-0 count... Frieri is gonna stop trying to nibble. He's gonna give Justin a fastball over the middle because he doesn't want the bases loaded and no outs. Bad at bat by a Vet... Rookies get overaggressive in these situations... Vets are supposed to know better. With the youth on this squad... We have very little chance if the few vets we do have... do that.

    The Umps blew the call... No question about it... But the call was a distraction for a problem that something can be done about. Why was Morneau with a 1-0 Count swinging at a ball? Frieri just walked and hit a guy... He started Morneau with a ball. Why is Morning swinging at an inside fastball that would have made the count 2-0? I understand that #3 hitter is a different mindset but so is the #4 spot. You are not going to crush the ball swinging at something out of the zone. You got a struggling pitcher... Don't help him!!! A 2-0 count is gonna make Frieri groove one becuase he cant walk the bases loaded. Vets should know this. Rookies are the ones who typically struggle with this stuff. Young players try to be heroes and get over aggressive. Morneau should know better and if our vets are gonna perform like that. We probably ain't going to the playoffs and look at that... We ain't going to the playoffs. Yeah... I'd like to be pissed at the umps... They blew it... However... Morneau blew it first. I've seen too much of too much of this.
