    Queen Victoria smart guy. Originally it was celebrated on her actual birthday but stores in Grand Forks and Fargo banded together and petitioned the Canadian government to make it on the Monday preceding May 25 so that Canadians would come there on mass and spend all their money because they had nothing else to do.

    Say hi for me, I'm bound to know one of them.

    Truer words may never have been spoken. If those crazy Jays fans let a loss get in the way of a good time in the Twin Cities, they don't deserve to be there.

    For those wondering about all the Jays fans in attendance, it's Victoria Day here in Canada on Monday so it's a long weekend. Bus tours like crazy from Northwestern Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Do me a favour.....keep them, I don't really want them back.

    I laid down for a nap this afternoon and had this crazy dream the Twins beat the Blue Jays in a game of baseball. Ha ha ha.....ha ha ha ha. I shouldn't have spicy food for breakfast

    The Twins have a lot at stake in the development of their highly touted youth. It's an asset they need to invest as much as they can in and should be their number one priority at this stage. This of course starts with the people in charge of that development, who so far have not only accomplished next to nothing with pretty much all of them but have arguably bungled and mismanaged them in a serious way. If the Pohlads care most about their assets, they should be looking for new people to manage and develop them. Time for a change.

    Speaking French now are we? Tres Bien.

    The Sens? Yes. The Leafs?............. No real Canadian outside the Province of Ontario hates anything more than the Leafs. It's unpatriotic.

    God I hate the ****ing Blue Jays.

    What is that salary cap? I didn't say it prevented them from spending money, I said it doesn't prevent them from doing anything, which it doesn't. This team is not held back by Mauer's contract, period.
  11. twinsnorth49
    Lol, Mauer's contract isn't preventing the Twins from doing anything. What do you suggest they do, ask for it back? They could bench him, Lord knows this team is good enough for that. Still have to pay him though. Tired of hearing the Mauer bad contract stuff, could be the most beaten horse on this site.

    I think it's safe to say the main hatchway's caved in. Fellas, it's been good to know ya.

    What, and ruin a good meme?

    Sorry but this isn't just about Berrios being sent down, it's about the overall mindset. Why bring him up to begin with if this is the amount of rope he was going to be allowed? Personally I think it's because they were hoping for another lucky shot in the dark, they were desperate, already, in mid May for God's sake. If you're sending him down for his own benefit and a big part of the reason is another couple of wins he might be worth is meaningless anyway, then you are essentially pulling the pin a month and a half into the season and have grossly overestimated the team you put together. If TR had a damn clue about the true talent level of his team none of Buxton, Berrios, Polanco would have been anywhere near this team, you'd probably have optioned Rosario by now and no way in hell would you have ever placed your future franchise cornerstone player in RF where he has never played before for the sake of Trevor Plouffe. Oversight is being far too kind.

    Just another example of the lack of any discernible plan. Seriously where are they going and how is it they are trying to get there? I honestly have no ****ing clue and it leaves me with very little faith in anybody in this org. Trying not to be hyperbolic but it's really discouraging to see the team just floating in the breeze to nowhere, it's a waste.

    And doing what with it? Who's responsible for it being in the state it is today, the politicians? "Solidarity is first and foremost a sense of responsibility on the part of everyone with regard to everyone". - Pope Benedict I don't see that as a pervasive attitude in America and it's not entirely the fault of the politicians.

    Well, of course. Lab by day, bar by night, this type of high level genetic mutation stuff is thirsty work.

    My Dad was a musician and always sang to the radio in the car. There are countless songs I remember during those times in my childhood but I think the one I used to enjoy the most, and always go back to when I hear it these days is "Sir Duke" by Stevie Wonder. Lots of rocking out to that song, my kids pretend to think I'm nuts when it comes on theses days, but I think they secretly like it.

    Wait............we won? Was busy in the lab all night. And by lab, I mean bar.
  21. twinsnorth49
    Untruth.................it's McGill.
  22. twinsnorth49
    Is Sale that good or the Twins that bad? Carry on.
  23. twinsnorth49
    Well, at least they kept me entertained for most of the night this time. Can't decide if that's actually worse yet.
  24. twinsnorth49
    Your head might be next in the morning. The blows part might also still apply.
  25. twinsnorth49
    And you did just that, I tip my hat.
