    Great article and thread! I was 8 when the Twins first arrived and baseball was the sport in that world of mine. Never played any organized ball. Just neighborhood pick up games as little league wasn't in my Minneapolis neighborhood. We played baserunner on the sidewalk with the lines being the bases and one would try to get as many bases without making an out from the 2 catchers. Record was 36 held by me. Also threw a ball against the cement steps for hours, used a tennis ball as the flies off the cracks or line drives were coming back fast. Had a large barn like garage with a huge roof where we threw the ball to catch high fly balls. Plus hours of pitcher and catcher with all the dreaded Yankees coming to the plate. Catcher would call strikes and balls and throw hits to field. And baseball cards, that I gave away after I grew up. I can cry as I had cards from the 1950's! It really hurt to take my son to Twinsfest and see those cards for hundreds of dollars a piece! So many memories and baseball endures for so many of the reasons in this thread. The mind games, no time, any thing can happen, along with all the great stories and memories from games gone by. Up north on Kimble Lake each Summer, with just Herb Carneal calling a game as we fished and swam. Only interruption would be to find a station playing the Beatles new release. Thanks all for bringing back so much and firing me up for that next pitch!!!

    Now that brought back the memory of me and my son seeing and talking to Ortiz at 2 Twins clinics, he was awesome....huge and friendly and funny..... but, he never woulda become Big Papi if, he stayed here.

    Dark days? Not sure if I have had them, been a fan since day one, at 10 yrs. old. Now as I have aged, I still enjoy that every season brings a chance. I did enjoy it more when players didn't get the big contracts, as I feel their desire has diminished. And now that I can pay more attention to the games, as my kids are on their own; I feel the next 2 years may be dark and gloomy.....yet on day one of the season we are in first place:)

    Hicks should have more confidence due to the work he has done since he was sent down. Pressure due to Pressley or Bartlett??? I would worry more if, I knew Bartlett was able to replace me:p
  20. Jerr
    That and I feel the Twins gave "scholarships" to Bartlett and Kubel. I believed the Twins when they said players had to earn their spots on the team. And it is sad that Twins need a veteran to inspire them to "do things right" and said veteran is from the past and not doing it on the field. Totally unexcited about this team:( and Bartlett.
  21. Jerr
    And that, along with Kubel have got me not buying any tickets and I have been a fan since 1961 (10 yrs. old back then). I believed the front office when they spoke of "no scholarships" any more....Bartlett and Kubel got exactly that:(
  22. Jerr
    He hasnt nor has he looked good in the field....but it is a learning curve:D
  23. Jerr
    Buxton did NOT look good on that ball:banghead:
  24. Jerr
    Nor me!!
  25. Jerr
    Yeah!!!!
