  1. I am blessed with about the best damn sub sandwich place ever right around the corner from my house. Didn't Wendy's claim to be made fresh, once upon a time? To me, real fast food is ordered from a place that has no tables or chairs.
  2. ISWYDT...
  3. Who needs clean drinking water anyway.
  4. This is what you said. This is clearly not true. Just own it.
  5. Read the articles again and try to understand them, or just carry on insisting you're right as usual. Both of them say much more than that and there are others as well, including a lengthy article done in Twins Daily by Parker about Dozier's change in approach a couple years back. Hitter's talk about changes in approach regularly and so do pitchers. If you can't be bothered to read any of them, that's on you, it doesn't mean they don't exist.
  6. Well that was expected, goal posts moved. I have no idea what you're on about, but it's not worth my time. Carry on. http://i774.photobucket.com/albums/yy30/FishytheFish/Headshake.gif
  7. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/176003374/brian-dozier-emerging-from-early-season-slump/ http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/brian-doziers-path-out-of-the-slump/ There's more, but you can find the rest.
  8. Concur, with all of that. Aggressiveness was never Lynch's problem, he just needed to be smarter about it. I said it before and I'll still say it, the Gophers chances of making some noise in the tourney revolves around Lynch's play. Without him, they are too one dimensional.
  9. Lynch never quite got the memo on the 0 aggressiveness thing, he just fouls out. His ability to avoid foul trouble the last month has been key for the Gophers.
  10. I still can't believe it.
  11. Brian Dozier. Are we really going to do this? I can name plenty
  12. I would highly debate the majority of fans being drunken idiots. Unfortunate that's your perception of a team's supporters, it's an unfair stereotype. Having a sense of belonging to something that one enjoys following is pretty natural, especially a sports team that represents the city, state or country that fan is from. The term we is used pretty euphemistically, it's pretty silly to take issue with and takes for granted the people who go out of their way to show support. Fans and players are clearly different, nobody is saying otherwise.
  13. Methinks you're overreacting just a little. I've heard lots of hitters talk about their changes in approach, they don't suddenly turn into a pumpkin. Same for pitchers, you learn a new grip and talk about it and this somehow magically allows the hitter to figure out how to identify it and when you're going to throw it? Hey, I learned how to throw a 100mph fastball......good luck!
  14. I think fans invest a lot, clearly not as much as the players. I think using the term "we" is just feeling that you are part of things, which as a fan you clearly are. You feel the highs and lows, you attach yourself to the players and you've likely been involved in following the team longer than any single player has played for the team itself. The fans are part of a teams identity. To suggest people don't have the right to use the term we when describing their favourite team is condescending and petty.
  15. That might make me angry, understandably of course.
  16. Peaking at the right time. That little losing streak awhile back was a good reality check for this team, they seem to be taking care of the details a lot better.
  17. Is this serious? I mean really, this angers people? Wow.
  18. That's a huge win for the Gophers. 4 seed looks much more encouraging with play and wins like this one.
  19. Dude, read my post, that's like literally exactly what I said.
  20. I said fascinating not horrible.
  21. Yeah, just that easy. The fascination and judgment of Sano's weight never ceases to amaze me.
  22. Only lost 15 pounds? C'mon Jimmer, try being a 23 year old professional athlete, still trying to build strength and lose more than 15 pounds. It's quite a feat. So is getting to 286 but they are two separate things.
  23. I was heartened to hear Sean Spicer report that President Trump had a productive meeting with Prime Minister Joe Trudeau. So productive in fact, they couldn't even remember his name. **** me, what a clown show.
  24. Stephen Miller........holy **** people. That's just not even close to funny.
  25. My thoughts exactly, probably for different reasons though.
