  1. Actually, I'd argue that people gave away too much on the internet. It's one way news has become devalued, imo. OTOH, I agree in this instance, it should be free in market. Just as I think book publishers are idiots for charging full price for 40 year old ebooks, I think MLB is foolish to charge for listening on your phone, when they let you listen on the radio.
  2. I generally agree, except it kept them from getting a good catcher last year, since they clearly thought JRM was that. Luckily, the guy I kept pushing them to trade for is now here...
  3. they should 100% be trading him at the deadline unless they are in a playoff team at the time, even then, I'd consider it. This team is not a playoff team. As the Yankees showed us last year, and as TX has stated in interviews, and as the Cubs and Astros showed us, you have to be willing to trade veterans to build for the future.
  4. I'm not defending Buxton at all. He's beyond terrible. If he wasn't a top prospect, he'd be in AAA by now. Guys that hit like this are just generally cut....but he has tools, and he's young. Of course, they have NO PLAN at all for 1 of these OFs failing, since they have no real backup OF.
  5. Unless you only want to watch about 10 games a year.....I could never sit around and watch sports like I used to. As for the radio, who the F has a radio sitting around anymore? It always bugged me when I lived in MN that I could listen for free on 1950s tech, but I couldn't listen to the same thing for free on my phone or computer.
  6. This is the issue, let's hope this new FO doesn't do this. Not having a 4th OF they like in the OF this year, however, makes me not thrilled.
  7. It isn't up to you to tell other people whether they should be offended. If you can't see how "Redskins" is an offensive name....
  8. that part where they said "forever" doesn't exist.
  9. KLAW isn't so sure he can hit here, IIRC.
  10. So, now we can't talk about past trades? I've never understood people coming into a thread saying it was a stupid thread. don't want to talk about it, read about it? don't come... I was thinking about this trade the other day. I still think it is two bad players for each other. I always felt the Twins were overly impressed by a couple ABs by Murphy against their terrible pitching staff. Hicks and Buxton....anyone notice a trend?
  11. He also must play Danny..... Still can't figure out he is on a roster.
  12. I must report, the bourbon peach pie was not as good as the others. Good thing I didn't walk there tonight. I see Minnesota sports are as good....
  13. I will never understand pinch running for Sano like this. Two outs? On first? Do no like
  14. Look, Mauer has to adjust to situations. He seems to refuse. Buxton just sucks. I recall people telling me he was a better prospect than seager. Same people that said the Cubs and Astros were no better than the twins....
  15. Yup. Really sucks out of state
  16. Ha. Nope post what you like. They don't Dee lite
  17. That was my list last year for albums. Artists seems harder
  18. Xtc - oranges and lemons Dee lite - world clique Waterboys - fisherman's blues Arctic Monkeys - am Violent femmes - violent femmes Weezer -weezer, blue Soul coughing - irresistible bliss Devo - freedom of choice The clash - london calling Nirvana - nevermind
  19. 89.3 did essential albums last year. 9 of the 10 I picked made the list, including the easy top 2 for me. this year, essential artists. Thoughts? Did you do it last year? doing it this year? I'll have to post my album list when I get home, and can access that site.....
  20. In honor of this, I suggest everyone who uses gameday tonight "watch" in Espanol.
  21. I think I've watched a similar number all the way thru. Plus paused on it a few times, with regret.
  22. So the Jedi will be Gandalf the Grey, and not in white? on a side note, it's always been interesting to me that the stormtroopers are in white, not black....
  23. Remember though, most players that hit like this never get this many chances, so there is a lot of survivor bias in that list at the end.
  24. and you said there was no meat those bones....
