  1. I heard that is one of the next game promotions - you can get one with a twins logo and a picture of Terry Ryan on the side.
  2. Just think right now he could be telling his friends on how when he was at the Dells he met someone who he thinks was named RiverBrian or RiverBrain -- and how he learned everything you need to know about how to create an epic game thread and also the wonders of North Dakota.
  3. Guess we know who is going to do the next 82 game threads [plus any play off threads].
  4. I see a big potential for a number of promotions for next year. It would not need to be players and could be expanded to include the managerial staff and the front office.
  5. I am speculating, so take this as a grain of salt, but I sometimes think Souhan finds the one opinion he wants and then makes it seem like it is more wide-spread in the club house than it actually is. I did read an article somewhere online that speculated he was being proactive due to all of the Mauer is robbing us criticism he has seen. That said, it was a nice response. It has to be tough, because he must be dealing with the fact that it is possible his career is over. He seems well rounded and has his priorities in order (family etc), where his life won't be over, but that is still a huge thing to process and it has to be overwhelming to deal with all of the thoughts and emotions.
  6. This make sense. The MLB probably thought offering a game with two teams who might potentially meet again in October for the ring would entice new subscribers.
  7. Bark - very nice tribute to your friend. My condolences on your loss.
  8. Ah - so his over optimistic outlook was not just my imagination.
  9. You will be styling. You could wear these to the Diamond Awards next year (they want to consider taking a year off from giving those out...)
  10. I would cut Dick some slack - they have to be drinking heavily by this point, or at least doing their best to watch as little of the game as possible.
  11. I was trying to figure out why the season seems so familiar. Once I did, I felt better. The season is going to rebound - we just need to talk Tatum O'Neal to head our pitching staff. http://cineplex.media.baselineresearch.com/images/77512/77512_full.jpg
  12. You should try to save your 1,500th post for our first play-off win.
  13. In March, how many people would have predicted Robbie Grossman batting third, and thinking that it was probably the right choice?
  14. A lot of times it is hard to sense sarcasm on written comments on message boards. This is not one of those times.
  15. Little known fact - Thing is not a fan of the head-first slide.
  16. All we do is win now -- is this thread even necessary anymore? Do you think they will unveil any new food items at Target Field for the play-off games played there this fall?
  17. I think it was when a Neanderthal, a homo sapien, and saber tooth tiger walked into a tar pit.
  18. You are asking someone to come back when the team started playing better once he left? What is next - commenting on a no-hitter? (hypothetically speaking, if the Twins pitcher had a no-hitter in play.)
  19. An internet message board is no place for reasoned thinking!
  20. When was the last time we had a young starting pitcher who showed promise move to the next level and be a consistent reliable pitcher? There have been a few names of young pitchers the last 2 to 3 years where we were excited to see what they could do, but none who really lived up to expectations - at least in regards to starting pitching.
  21. To the moon! (we will hit a number or at least a pair of moonshots to get there).
  22. I wonder if Ortiz is going to be able to suppress his laughter during whatever they are going to do to honor him.
  23. At times this season has made the Red Wedding seem light and fun.
