    so you are saying this bullpen is just too good to add Chargois to?
  2. Mike Sixel
    I admit, I don't know if they have poutine, let me check. But, might be some of the best nachos ever. And beer.....
  3. Mike Sixel
    I hold out a small amount of hope this is about a trade, but you know, you can call up Chargois, and then if you do make a trade, call up Boshers after that......can't you?

    Breakside Brewery, Portland OR. Come to the smaller location with food. Ping me, so I know I should show......

    I had previously gotten out....but I may get back in now. I have a very large sum of money I just moved into my trading account (having sold my house), and want to gamble about 10K, and "safely" invest the rest. Having sat on it for a few weeks while we paid bills and figured out our "free cash".....I probably lost around 10-15K in profit already.......sigh. And now I'm less confident in my choices.

    You can get cheese curds on your poutine.....just sayin'
  7. Mike Sixel
    Given how fat I feel lately......no idea. I'd guess it would involve a brewery, nachos, and poutine.
  8. Mike Sixel
    Is the story any good?
  9. Mike Sixel
    come on, he didn't say it was the ONLY thing that mattered.....do people disagree that attendance is largely driven by the quality of the team?
  10. Mike Sixel
    Another day....and someone else is up......it is still time.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Such condescending BS, it hurts my eyes to even read this ..... "my time sitting around watching my favorite sport is better than your time".....MLB is not some holy sanctuary, and soccer is not some curse on hard work and humanity.
  12. Mike Sixel
    It's never the Twins FO fault that they make a head scratching move. No matter how odd, it is always defend-able. Apparently. Just Tuesday Seth posted an entire thread that Chargois should be up now.......
  13. Mike Sixel
    the message appears to be......if there is a really good Japanese FA, sign him.
  14. Mike Sixel
    So, like casual Twins' fans, then, except maybe less watch the playoffs and WS.....
  15. Mike Sixel
    someone said that?
  16. Mike Sixel
    Ya, his post Mn time has not been too great.....
  17. Mike Sixel
    It's about 10%* a free market for baseball, but more so if you include all entertainment options.... *a made up number, taking into account the Saints, Gophers, and the MLB monopoly....
  18. Mike Sixel
    Glavine was better at getting pitches 9 inches off the plate called a strike......
  19. Mike Sixel
    Some scintillating updates on this thread so far......
  20. Mike Sixel
    Fair. i too would not have sent him down......
  21. Mike Sixel
    Wasn't the Morris deal one of the biggest ever? He didn't sit on using a guy like Tyner as his DH either..... Night and day, imo.
  22. Mike Sixel
    Then, we can keep him down for another month while they try to do a waiver deal......there is always a reason he's not up here, none of them seem to be about the present or his future.
  23. Mike Sixel
    Well....they are spending that money no matter what....the real question is, should they spend it on a player not to play for them, or to take up roster space? If they ate it all this year, that would be a tough pill to swallow, profit wise.....but would free up roster space and money for future years. If they ate it over the term of the contract (does any such deal exist?), it would be pretty much the same as paying the player......but would not free up money to sign others.....but would clear a player off the roster they don't want. If they DFA the player, they eat the money, free up a roster space, and get back a tiny bit of money this year. If they keep the player, they spend the money and take up a roster space with a guy they don't want. There may be other options.....but which would anyone here choose? Remember, you do want to make money.....
  24. Mike Sixel
    I have no issue with that......I think the human body is beautiful, and admiring it should be ok. Staring? Touching? Bad stuff? No.......looking? Sure. edit: admittedly, I'm a guy....so maybe I just can't understand it.
  25. Mike Sixel
    good stuff, thanks. If I ran the Twins, they'd have pushed that follow up interview a lot harder. However, I'm not sure the casual fan cares......how much effort should they aim at improving their reputation with us, or the industry?
