  1. Also Bruce Campbell as RR was great.
  2. Paul has some good ideas, but he just comes off as a know it all Napoleon syndrome swarmy piece of **** too often. That guy just isn't electable, trump successfully bullies him every chance he gets.
  3. for sure
  4. Read a fan theory online that bear (the reasonable Gerhardt son) ends up becoming the head of the Fargo syndicate in season 1
  5. Meh, I am not a huge Ryan fan anymore, but I gotta say I like what he has done this far this offseason. I think it's far too early to say he isn't going to trade plouffe as well. I'm willing to give him a few months until I rip him for this off season personally
  6. You would make a hell of a politician nick! Arguing against a stance that literally nobody is taking! Nobody is comparing the two (at least around these parts)
  7. Herrmann really has no business being on a major league roster, so getting anything for him is a win. Trading him for a dude with power? Even bigger win. Maybe this dude becomes Collabello and a cheap bench/1b depth for cheap for a year or two. Either way, good move. Can't teach power
  8. Yeah they got a long ways to go, if they were in the East I think they make the 6 or 7 seed, in the West, they could have a very nice season and still finish 10th or so.
  9. Poor is a bit over the top, I don't think Sano will be "good" at 3rd or even "average" but I think he can end up being a tick below average which is perfectly fine.
  10. lol Forbes. Yes, one player won't fix the Twins (or most teams). I'm still on the fence with the move (though I agree there is very little downside) but if he can mash, he goes a long way in helping fix the Twins.
  11. Agreed, but if either is traded for GOOD value, I would be for it. The reality is a guy like Kepler and Rosario are better bets at getting a good young pitcher or catcher back in return then Plouffe. However they shouldn't "move em, just to move em" but I'm not worried about that, Ryan has never given up youngsters in trades for the most part (good thing)
  12. Most people (and history) have much more positive things to say about him.
  13. I wouldn't read much into these numbers. The GOP are the ones who have been getting all the press/attention etc lately. Lol Carson.
  14. I would rather not see other teams end up throwing at his or Sano's head.
  15. Rosario or Hicks are the best trade assets the team have since they are both true CF's and are playing out of position for the Twins (with Buxton as the future CF) With that said, I would prefer not to trade either one at this stage and would like to trade Plouffe now, then once Buxton is "proven" and ready then you can trade Hicks or Rosario (or Kepler)
  16. He had a nice year, but he never showed much in the minors for the Twins etc in 4+ years, besides the Twins easily could have kep him on the 40 man roster and not exposed him, instead they decided not too. Either way, not worth getting too worked up on losing him...yet.
  17. Yeah, I don't get the rule 5 paranoia, you shouldn't "wait" to sign legit FA (Park is a legit FA even though I am not super high on him) because of the rule 5, I get not wanting to waste a current spot on a 3rd catcher or something of that nature. The Twins aren't going to lose anyone they will truly "miss" in the rule 5 anyways.
  18. The Twins aren't going to pay the posting fee and another 30-40 million to have a guy be a bench bat.
  19. I only like it if they move Plouffe. Putting Sano in LF is just such a waste.
  20. Why wouldn't he start? He is 27 years old a first baseman and a power hitter, signing him then sending him to the minors doesn't make any sense. I doubt he is going to come from Korea to go play some games in Rochester...
  21. Right Handed bat that may be a AAAA player? Couldn't we have just kept Colabello instead? The KBO is weak and this dude lead the league in strike outs, color me unimpressed currently.
  22. You can dislike John Oliver all you want, but comparing him to Carrot Top is like comparing Nick Puntos skill set to Miguel Sanos skill set.
  23. My problem with having 4 of the last 5 presidents as bushes or clintons is the fact that two of them were Bush and the country suffered quite a bit under them (history will not be kind to pappa or W) Billy Clinton however was a great president, so I don't see why Hilary can't be the same (especially with the momentum of Obamas 2nd term)
  24. I'm not the biggest Clinton fan, but I am curious on why you dislike her so much, she basically has the same policies as Biden.
  25. There is no Lester this season just like there is no Lorne Malvo this season. Both of those things are good things since it would be hard to top those two individual performances. Instead we get a ton of great characters this season and it expands the Fargo universe(good thing IMO)
