    I've totally lost interest in the Olympics at this point. It is partly the coverage, and partly that I just don't watch stuff that doesn't scream "watch me" in general anymore. I think my wife would watch it more if: a: we lived in MN, and it wasn't over at 11 b: I wasn't in the room, ripping on the fluff all the time

    Which I still regret asking. I'll do better next time, promise.

    Is Bonds eligible? If so, agreed...

    lol, really, out loud on that one! I didn't really ever drink much rum, then we went to the Virgin Islands, where they give you rum as you get off the plane...

    Our friendship is now on the rocks after that post....

    I could trade Revere or Span for pitchers....the difference should be, we should expect the GM to be right more than I would be. Anyone on this board could have followed that process, the Twins followed it twice, and failed both times. As for the Span trade, John Bonnes did research, tall pitchers, other than 1, don't work out. The Twins didn't just roll the dice, they rolled 1 die, and tried to get a 7.

    If the number 6 pick in the draft is a RP.....that's not a good outcome for a team that won't pay huge money for FAs, so, I disagree with that being a good outcome. I have no idea how anyone can judge the pick based on this year, though. He was good, if not great, and he's in AA.

    the Cardinals have a voodoo pact going, you just can't compare them to the Twins at all. Or, maybe we should have higher expectations for the Twins, your call...

    It could be worse: Murdoc: Who has the most work to do for 2017 and beyond: A’s, Twins, Rays, or Angels? 9:14 Paul Swydan: Definitely the Angels. Moose: What will be the team with the longest playoff drought from today on? 9:56 Paul Swydan: Angels. Perhaps the Twins. Jury is out on them until they hire a good GM. Hopefully they can manage that this time around. 9:56 Jeff Zimmerman: Rays … no money in a tough Division 9:56 Paul Swydan: Braves are in the mix, as are, as Jeff said, the Rays. 9:57 Paul Swydan: I really have no idea what the Rays’ plan is. Both this year and last year their goal seemed to be to get to 75 wins. 9:57 Jeff Zimmerman: Angels at least have money 9:57 Paul Swydan: True.

    I would have left him down A LOT longer the last time, so I understand your statement.
  11. Mike Sixel
    I agree, it looked bad right from the start. I hope he's ok.
  12. Mike Sixel
    bummer, I love Rum, and did grill yesterday. guess I'll have to make that up today!
  13. Mike Sixel
    Huge, huge fan. Hoping he continues to grow as a player, but even if he only stays here, big fan.

    Tim Raines, number 1 snub right now, if you care....

    Here is a list of people expecting him to be an MVP right now:
  16. Mike Sixel
    You are arguing that years of drafting players and all the information they have on players...we should have zero expectations that the Twins can draft and develop early draft picks? I'm not sure I'm following.
  17. Mike Sixel
    i've been to nearly every brewery in the TC, let me know if you have questions...
  18. Mike Sixel
    Well, on that last parapgrah, the Twins hardly ever moved a guy in the past until way too late (or not at all). It's a question some of the posters here have raised before. Taylor Rogers, for example.
  19. Mike Sixel
    If the number 2 ranked science major in all the US goes to college and gets a bunch of Ds, I'd think that is a failure on their part.
  20. Mike Sixel
    I can jump higher than that. Wth? And, that kind of soccer is sooooooooooo boring.
  21. Mike Sixel
    They did hit up Goodwill the other day, but with no success. My wife tends to shop Kohl's or other places when she has really big coupons. I largely leave the sons on their own for clothes and shoes...Yes, both are in college.

    I used to live fairly close to Steel Toe. If you like the beers you can get in any store/bar, you'll like it. But, they do nothing interesting/different at all in the brewery (once in a while they have a barrel aged beer, but there is nothing cool about the beer in the brewery).
  23. Mike Sixel
    what is a reasonable expectation for the number two overall pick?
  24. Mike Sixel
    I just watched episode one. Everyone else thinks it is bed time. Sigh.
  25. Mike Sixel
    I almost went with...i hate you... But it was funny...
