    Caseys at 6 am for the plain donuts right outa the fryer, dripping in grease. Every bite, one less year of watching the Twins!

    True, rumor has it that the Twins are trading Nolasco to the Birds for Duensing. We are then turning around and trading Duensing and selling high on R Grossman to Toronto for Donaldson. Donaldson. Unable to unseat Trevor Plouffe will play LF, giving us an all IF/OF. On a related move, Joe Vavra has been demoted to Rochester.

    It's so sad to see someone turn delusional right in front of our very eyes!

    Go straight down 75 on the right side just before Iowa!

    That couldn't have been me, I shoot right handed!

    I hope that ain't the old guy who owns Burnett Realty? Now they are signing up advertisers also? What next, the old white haired guy from Menards? (true story, he was also the complaint dept manager for corporate), Hannahs Horse? Flo from Progressive?

    Speaking of leadership, Dozier was quoted as on the subject. Once he said he was the team leader, and once he referred to himself as one of the team leaders. He likely has a point, as it's obvious the whole team is following his shining example. Snark meter is currently set at full operating capacity!

    Yes! I am on a high carb, low on fiber diet! . We went with two friend from Milwaukee. A Mr. Harley, and a Mr. Davidson. . We are currently sitting at Tim Hortons waiting for North, but he still hasn't showed up?

    So if Guy Fieri wants to try excellent dining he should travel to SW MN. Laugh if you will, but Langes in Pipestone is worth the trip. It was a difficult choice Sunday, 120 miles one way on the bike for breakfast, or another Twins nail biter. We opted for the ride. It was as advertised, a 10 on a scale of 10. If Guy can find Pipestone, he should give it a try.

    A good idea, I have always wanted to drown alone! Living on the river I have often noted that all canoe paddlers go down river. But none ever come back. This is apparently where early man got the idea the world was flat, as I am assuming these people must have fallen off the end somewhere. Hopefully not in Le Seuer? Which I am sure North will tell you is French for "The Sewer". Seems a strange name for a town?
  11. Platoon
    I refuse to start another discussion on wieners! Beside me and North are heading straight to the Polish sausage stand. Krysmawhachumacallit, or whatever!
  12. Platoon
    The one on the SW corner.

    It did, she stepped on the edge of the canoe to get out. I am 6'5 and the water was 7'2"!
  14. Platoon
    I'll pick you up at Tim Hortons in 30 minutes. You pay for the gas!

    Would questioning whether TR will have both oars in the water, while piloting his rowboat be inappropriate? On a side note, my wife and I tried canoeing with less than moderate success. Let's just say we were the canoeing version of the 2016 Twins with the exception we eventually got our heads above water. On one occasion she yelled "there's a beaver"! Looking to the distance All I saw was a squirrel swimming heroically across the muddy MN. Since both species have two ears and a tail, it was an easy mistake to make. Be that as it may, there has been a long and ongoing "discussion" over who was in charge of steering. The person in front or back. Your answers to this question will determine whether she sees this post or not!

    Ha has made some pretty odd moves, and bears some of the fault, but he wasn't given a roster that can readily be adjusted either.
  17. Platoon
    The Pragmatic Platoon says he can agree with this observation. The Sarcastic Platoon wonders which players you are referring to?
  18. Platoon
    Rumor has it that Captain Smith wanted to back up the Titanic, in fact tried. But the water just kept coming in!

    The Twins have so many problems that discussing any one of them results in a "but if the Twins had a (fill in the blank) things would be different comment. And that's true. But each part of the game should stand on its own. I am not sure why anyone thought that this was going to be an explosive offense? I can see die hard fans, but the FO? They had not intention of Buxton leading off, so they still had no leadoff hitter, no true 3 hitter, and Sano was moved to RF, and does not appear to be ecstatic over the idea. Park was, and still is a roll of the dice. Currently he seems in either a large slump, or they have started to figure him out. I think he is an extreme guess hitter at this time. Enough has been said about Dozier, but the sum of it is the BD that existed in the first halves of the last two years is not coming back. And while I am a big Mauer fan, I fear he isn't either. The only one close to consistency is Plouffe. (Jeez Louise) and that explains the offense in a nutshell. If Trevor Plouffe is your cleanup hitter, your lineup is in serious trouble. When you take over beloved veterans and pair them with on the job training rookies, and add a SO prone 29 year old, what exactly did anyone expect. A lineup like Torontos could carry a couple hitters learning their craft, expecting the veterans on this one to, is a fools errand.

    I know he has a lot of issues with strikeouts, so it's good the Twins don't have any offensive problems, and are able to let him mature in Rochester. .
  21. Platoon
    Grammatical question for Chief? Is putting . . . after ellipses. . . an incorrect use of puncuation or . . .
  22. Platoon
    You don't have to wait, our Twins have already redlined! Whoops, I meant flatlined!
  23. Platoon
    Whoever said "consistency is the hallmark of a great team" had never watched the Twins!
  24. Platoon
    Mollies faith in Jepsen is well placed. True there were a couple fly balls to the OF, but that can happen to anyone!
  25. Platoon
    I have noticed that Sano and fly balls often tend to go in different directions.
