  1. It wasn't PI. But let's grant that it was. It only mattered because the Gophers spent 59 minutes not playing offense, behind a stupid game plan executed by a poor QB, wasting a pretty good defensive effort. Lather, rinse, repeat. That's the takeaway. Not a call that can be quibbled over.
  2. It's a shame this team has been tied to Leidner for so long. What a series of wasted opportunities. Above average?? What?
  3. HUH? It's your contention that players playing better with other coaching has nothing to do with the possibility that there's an issue with Twins coaching?
  4. “Yes I did… and I’ve also run out of bullets”. You can say that again.
  5. http://67.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1itsg87X61rn95k2o1_500.jpg If you say so.
  6. I hope, REALLY hope, this isn't an alt account for an existing member. That would be a clear violation of TD policy, bro. A CLEAR violation. If it were, I might have an excuse to be forced to take moderator action, which would leave that "FireFalvey" handle open for usurpation by a moderator use by a new poster.
  7. Congrats to Jeremy for scooping this a full day ahead of anyone else!
  8. Pretty sure he was referring to the "Chief and Brian" part.
  9. Seriously...they have absolutely zero regard for us as fans, running this collection out there night after night. I feel bad or Dozier. If I was him I'd be asking out. This is not a major league team. This is not a major league manager. It's just sad.
  10. Debate? It's settled case law. Mary Ann.
  11. This is all true, except the bolded. It's gotten to the point where it's ridiculously hard to be charged with an error. Anything on the edge of anyone's range is going to be ruled a hit, not an error. I seriously doubt anyone is racking up errors because they're diving for balls that are passed other fielders, and not coming up with the play cleanly. There are occasionally errors charged to outfielders that really aren't their fault...they make a good throw, the ball kicks off the runner, and runner(s) advance. Error charged, but no real misplay was made. Outside of that, charged errors, particularly to infielders, can be reasonably assumed to be legit. An out should have been recorded, and wasn't, or an extra base(s) gained that shouldn't have been. And so errors are one of the things that need to be considered. I also find it ironic that people often scoff at errors because "it's just a judgement call, made by a human," but then turn around and swear by advanced defensive metrics, which rely on humans making judgement calls based on taped replays.
  12. I hope you're right. But, again, I'll be mildly surprised if you are.
  13. Yeah, well, that's just like, your opinion man.
  14. http://i2.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/019/304/old.jpg Part of me wants Mcleod only because Ashbury will eventually post a "Old man yells at Mcleod" meme in response to something I say.
  15. I posted a month ago or so, semi-joking, that Rob Antony was the front runner. I will be mildly surprised if he's not in one of these two positions, likely the GM chair.
  16. We don't have relief pitchers that can go through one inning, Mike. And you think they can find a whole slough of em who can go through three innings?
  17. The way to improve next year's rotation is to keep this year's rotation?
  18. your new appreciation for whiskey will help with that
  19. Horrible footwork by Murphy. What's he doing up the first base line?
  20. I’m Straight Outta Compton… Well… No Not really… I’m from Minnesota so that would be silly. I eat hot dish.... when the weather goes cold… I dress warmly when it’s 20 below. I take walleye… from the lake… the DNR tells me how much I can take. Officer Jim… he is my neighbor… when I need something… He’ll do me a favor. Uffda.
