    I've totally gotten away from Pro Football but I like that you have a College FB forum so I'll have to remember to check for that. Best of luck with the site.

    Royals fans should be excited. I hope they have a lot of fun in the next couple of months. More power to 'em.

    I don't have a problem with that either. They should promote what they are doing. I didn't even have a problem with all the TF concert promotions, etc. This just was so totally unrelated to their product.

    This morning, the Minnesota Twins account tweeted the following: Minnesota Twins ‏@Twins · 2h Over 20,000 clients have trusted Hoglund Law with their social security disability case. Call today at 888-792-6009. http://atmlb.com/1mMps4Y I'm in complete agreement with the following: Retweeted by Seth Stohs Jesse Spector ‏@jessespector · 2h This is just embarrassing from an MLB team. You’re that desperate for a little extra cash? I'm just flummoxed by this. Are the Twins now raising cash based on tweeting advertising? This isn't even the personal injury firm that advertises by doing the ridiculous reminders during the game about ownership of broadcast rights. First, I'm ashamed of the Twins for "advertising" in their tweets regardless of the subject of the 3rd party advertising (and I'm about ready to unfollow the Twins). Second, I despair at the depths to which advertising by law firms has now fallen. P.S. I hope they were hacked but it really doesn't seem all that likely.

    Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino · 40s #mntwins VP Mike Radcliff tells me Buxton "was responsive after the collision" according to reports he'd received from Buxton's agent.

    Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino · 33s Just got off the phone with Felton Buxton, Byron's father. Asked if Byron is all right. "I really don't know. Nobody else knows right now." Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino · 5m Felton Buxton said he and other family members were already booked on flights to Hartford on Thursday morning. Still in Georgia tonight. Mike Berardino ‏@MikeBerardino · 4m I asked Felton Buxton if he at least could say that his son Byron was responsive following the collision. He said he wasn't sure. #MNTwins

    Wow, praying for him and his family.

    TOMMY MILONE, SERVICE TIME AND FREE AGENT STATUS Found this post by Berardino to be interesting: http://blogs.twincities.com/twins/2014/08/13/twinsights-tommy-milone-concerned-possible-service-time-manipulation/ Looks like Milone could get a nice raise for next year. But his potential free agency was apparently delayed by his time in Rochester.

    Did they invite you back?

    I'm happy that they were able to trade Correia and Willingham and to do so in a way that rewarded them for their service to the Twins. Best of luck to both of them with their new teams. Given that there were those here who were willing to simply DFA both of them, the returns on the trades are nice bonus even if they don't pan out for much. I'm also gratified that they have finally acknowledged the rebuild. I felt like the last three years they were in public denial. I still believe it is time for a new manager and until the Twins have one, I'm not willing to think much about "Wait til next year".

    Dustin Morse ‏@Twins_morsecode · 7m Fun Fact: The #MNTwins are hitting a major league best .293 in August.

    I love pulp.
  17. JB_Iowa
    BINGO!
  18. JB_Iowa
    Did that. Just felt like I was seeing more but maybe that's because you are adding new members every day.

    Brock, Seems like I'm noticing a lot more spamming since the re-design. Lots of little "You said this well, visit my websie at blah, blah, blah" (nothing to do with sports). Is it something with the permissions? Sorry for adding yet another wrinkle.

    When I first went to read this, I thought perhaps Doolittle was going to give us a little insight into Oakland's use of sabermetrics, But I enjoyed his humorous look much more. And i've no doubt that Oakland gets pretty specific in what they evaluate! http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/buster-olney/post/_/id/7721&ex_cid=InsiderTwitter_guestbloggerseandoolittle

    You should be able to do it now. Brock lowered the required number of posts to 250. Anybody above that is supposed to be able to change their member title. Click on your name; my settings; general account settings and look at the 5th item on the page.

    Flip side of the mania and all those highs .... are the lows. Profoundly sad.

    I like this so much I had to "like" it and quote it. The boy needs a trip to the proverbial woodshed.

    I can't find it back but one of the stories yesterday definitely had a line that had that implication. Here's an interesting NY Times piece about the origins of confrontation in the sport: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/11/sports/autoracing/a-death-highlights-racings-history-of-confrontation.html?_r=0

    Thanks, Brock.
