  1. Is it okay to root for the Bears in the play-offs, thinking if only we had beaten them, that coulda been us? So very far from the 0-16 ideal...
  2. I resolve to earn my trope for participation!
  3. I resolve to procrastinate smarter, not harder... or is that softer? I'll get to the other resolutions eventually... before i need to, at least.
  4. I would watch the Tom Kelly special. Nothing wrong with Die Hard neither.
  5. I drink Surge when i can get it, and if were a Coca-Cola distributor, i might be offended if someone implied it gave you wind. But if i am grasping at straws, it is only to drink more Surge to drown my sorrows at being offended. Please forgive my wind.
  6. Holy smokes! Congrats to both of 'em!
  7. I bet there are teams as bad us at the 2 minute offense. How are is the Jets' 2 minute drill? But it doesn't get exposed quite the way ours is to such criticism...
  8. Oh well. That's that, then, eh?
  9. Just as long as he doesn't miss the game tie-er. Someone else can always win the game for the Vikes.
  10. Another PAT. Not out of this game yet...
  11. And a field goal!
  12. Made 1 kick! A PAT no less. (and there was much rejoicing.
  13. How many kicks are we going to miss this game? My pop always thought the excellence of the kicking game took away all the meaningful/interesting strategic 4th down decisions, as does the DH in baseball. So i am at least intrigued to see how our modern team handles the adversity.
  14. Oh... With a headline like way too early projection, i was hoping for something like realignment in 2050 following homoginization of rules where the Central loses Detroit and Cleveland, but gains St. Loius and Denver, and becomes the plains division, making our division great again. But i got no problem enthusiastically looking forward to next season. Am glad to keep the target on our backs as well as our field.
  15. If we win out, and Arizona loses a game, do we still have the tie breaker?
  16. Wichita Attitude? I wanted to offer a palindromic mascot name, but it just doesn't quite work. This is as close as i could come. (Well, unless a sneaze is acceptible... which would pair well with homer hankies... that could double as a backup face mask.) And if you want to appeal to thumpers of a bible, you can say that in olden days, AAA was just A, so AA was actually B. Not sure this adequate, but i will settle for creative for now, and keep thinking...
  17. Meh.Missed kicks are a part of the game. Just kinda wished they weren't quite so big a part of ours... Do we have someone who will do a better job? With all the misses, we were closer than the score said. Am i still allowed to be optimistic? We still got an outside shot at the playoffs.
  18. US 52 goes to Rochester, not I 35... And yeah, i am envious of modern times for being able to google things. Hearing a prospect was playing in Rochester when i was growing up there left me confused as to why i couldn't go to a game and watch them. Google woulda straightened me out right quick.
  19. No rumors worthy of sharing here as to where Rosario will end up? That is what i am wondering. I am glad for him that he has his freedom, even if the money is now expected to be less than arbitration level.
  20. Yeah... We're falling further and further behind our 0-16 target. Let's go 0-19...
  21. To my knowledge, no extra runs are given for an extra long homerun. But it is easier to hit a routine fly ball than a homerun, and with increased exit velocity, more of those cans of corn will clear the fence. Also liners and grounders are more likely to find a hole if they get there faster. So he may still benefit from more refinement, but hitting the ball harder does tend to lead to better results and more runs given a similar contact profile. As to the over all question, the other core Twins would also get tendered or not based on the talent behond them. They still could get traded, but with their contracts, it would need to be a really good return.
  22. I will miss his play. The good with the bad, not to mention the ugly. Will definitely pay attention to him wherever he may end up.
  23. Science may discover the underlying principles, but how do we apply them to achieve results. This sounds like a job for... Engineering. So... If we cook our turkey over a dumpster fire, we will win in the playoffs?
