Today is a great day. I finished putting in some plants in some terraces I built and I have country ribs on the grill smoking while I watch the Twins on Direct TV.
Due to my complete unhappiness with mlb.tv I decided to check into getting FSN 1 on Direct TV. Last year, the channel packages were unbelievably expensive. This year? $14 a month, first 3 months free. If this works, goodbye mlb.tv
So, who do we blame the loss on, if things continue? I was not able to keep an eye on the game from the beginning, like I usually do, Chief was at the mall, chitown is at the game and BK claims he's 0-5 when he starts a game thread.
Oh yeah, the Twins are in first place by half a game. What a weird turn of events this is. I'd have given odds the Twins wouldn't be 4 and 0 to start the season.
Allen: Yo, Kintz Kintzler: Yes? Allen: Seen Bull Durham? Kintzler: Yessir! Many times! Allen: Remember what Crash said to Nuke? Kintzler: ??? Allen: Strikeouts are fascist!
I think our discussions are heated enough as it is. Buxton batting third, the Mauer contract, Santana versus Punto... Politics would probably by somewhat tame by comparison.
