    Yeah, they use a blended average I believe, they have a good chart like 2/3rds down the page that shows it better (how he would need Colorado+ Nevada)
  2. DaveW
    If you extend his number since his call up he is a 7-8 WAR player. Happy?

    Not trying to be a dick, but I'd suggest you stop being friends with morons. I live in one of the most liberal cities in this country, of course there are people like the women you mentioned, but they really seem few and far between and it's easy to just put the headphones on and ignore them. Those type of people don't contribute anything to society and they don't do anything to help "fix" society. When you take it to such an extreme your message gets completely lost, which is a shame. Those type of idiots (and yes I will call them idiots) are on the fringe of the "liberal" movement, just like the hard core tea partiers (the Curt Schillings of the world) are on the fringe of the "conservative" movement. The good news is for every one of your examples that you mentioned Brock, they are outnumbered by about 5-6 of the Curt Schillings of the world.

    You are viewing it wrong. He needs to win Florida+Ohio+NC, and then still flip Penn, or a combo of Nevada+Co He won't flip Virginia, but if he did, he would need to flip it with one of Nevada+Co as well.
  5. DaveW
    The numbers are accurate, go ahead and add them up. He needs to not only win Florida+NC+Ohio, but then either needs to pick up Pennslyvania, or FLIP two decent sized states like Colorado and Nevada, again nothing is impossible, but the road to victory for him is pretty tough, and of course there is the very strong possibility that he loses but Florida and NC anyways. It was a slip re: house vs senate, the Dems will take the senate (which is enough when you take the POTUS as well)
  6. DaveW
    Sorry, meant the senate.

    Buxton is for real at this point, another great game tonight all around. He should be the 2017 lead off hitter from opening day until the last game of the season. Bat Dozier and Sano behind him to give him some protection.

    The encouraging thing to me is that at this point, Trump really has no realistic electoral college road to the white house. He could win Florida, Ohio and North Carolina at this stage, and it still wouldn't be enough. At that point he would still need to win Pennsylvania (a state that becomes more and more blue every year) or Colorado AND Nevada. (The weed state and the gambling/prostitution state). Baring something insanely drastic, that just isn't going to happen, and more than likely Trump doesn't sweep Florida/Ohio and North Carolina anyways. Speaking of Colorado, I wish Clinton had the guts to run under national marijuana legalization/taxation. At this point the polls show well over 50% of Americans are for it, and it would help solve/fix a lot of issues as well: 1. Gets a ton of non violent offenders out of jail/future ones from going to jail. 2. Puts a dent (albeit not as big as if you legalized all drugs) out of the cartels/violence etc 3. Pumps a ton of new found tax money into the govt, spend 33% of it on education, spend 33% of it on rehabilitation (for all prisoners/drug users), spend 33% of it on clean energy research/mass transit/infrastructure improvements. 4. Let every state tax it how they want, just try to mandate that 33% goes into education and rehab. I still hold out hope that after November 8th, assuming Hillary wins and the Dems win the house, that YOLO Obama starts the ball rolling on legalization across the board.

    I believe he holds the Twinsdaily record for lifetime bans.
  10. DaveW
    Book it!

    I could have sworn Pig didn't know who Trolpo was, I recall looking at the IP and it didn't match anyone other poster (ABUSE OF MOD POWERS!!1!) Of course Trolpo could have been using a VPN. My money was on Ofx, Kobs (why not?) or Hawk.

    Facebook "on this day"` Thanks Zuckerberg!

    I miss Fatbeer too (who makes a cameo in the video above) also the random post from RonGardenhire himself every 8th months telling us about a blackout encounter in his dorm room with some co-ed.
  14. DaveW
    I was at that game, it looked so brutal in real time. Poor guy had no business starting the season in the MLB.
  15. DaveW
    Fun fact, Youtube actually took that down for about 6 months due to a copy right strike by her (her people), I actually won the appeal on the basis that it was clear parody.
  16. DaveW
    Yup, IIRC he ended up losing SOME money (at least that first year), but not near the full amount since he went to Japan and played/got paid over there. In fact I believe he ended up signing a 2 year deal with more guaranteed overall money, which is why I think the "praise" for him quitting was a little over blown, the guy clearly how no desire to work himself back onto the roster anyways. Pathetic. Mental Midget. Golden Coral GHHHHHHEEETTTTT READY!

    In a season featuring a treasure trove of hot takes, this might be the hottest of all It is way way way way way way way way way way to early to suggest this. If he is still struggling in the majors in early 2019? Then maybe the discussion can start.
  19. DaveW
    That's why I think it is so big that Hillary admitted that the E-mail thing was a mistake and that she wouldn't do it again if she got to do it over. Probably not the "admission" a lot of the EMAIL GATE OMG!!!1! people wanted, but the fact that she actually OWNED up and admitted a mistake makes her so much infinitely more appealing then Trump, who for some reason refused to admit the birther mistake. If there is one thing I have learned about America (and sports) American's love giving second chances to someone when they admit a mistake. But when a person keeps lying/doubling down? That is what screws them. See: Andy Petite vs Roger Clemens steroid issues.

    My point is, I don't think the casual poster/lurker here knows enough about Vikings Journal/Wild Extra, yeah we see them linked on the sides, but again, that doesn't drive a whole lot of attention. I'm not saying move the forums into this site either. Maybe something along the lines of putting ONE Vikings article/topic a week at the top of the Twins forum. Cross posting would go along ways. It's the same thing Gawker/Deadspin/Gizmodo/Kotaku/etc did, and it worked wonders introducing a large fan base to other sites they might enjoy.
  21. DaveW
    I think you just did
  22. DaveW
    You know what I mean, those get lost in the shuffle on an otherwise busy page setup. I think Twinsdaily could definitely do "more" to encourage people to go over to VJ.
  23. DaveW
    Yeah it's a pretty dumb comparison and I am not sure the point? I mean yeah I'm all for tougher DUI laws, but I don't see what that has to do with the Mariners suspending this jackass.
  24. DaveW
    This is going to be a fuuuuunnnnn offseason.
  25. DaveW
    Even if he is a part time player due to injury at this stage, he still can put up a .800 ops with a high obp. Plenty of value in that.
