  1. Concur about spaghetti-os. I won't buy them. Why couldn't he just make Ramen/Cup o Noodles like the rest of us did when we were poor and/or in a hurry. Or even still, Microwave a hot dog? :-)
  2. Is Bert or Bremer worse, cause they are both very bad. I think Bremer is worse though. I also prefer Bert to Morris.
  3. now, see, I knew what GDMF'n meant ;-)
  4. I was deployed to Saudi Arabia in 2001, and this young man would go get his dinner, bring it back to work, open up his food container and, from across the huge pre-fab 'tent' we worked in, I could instantly smell the ketchup. No Joke, every day, including Thanksgiving Day. He put it on everything! I've pretty much given up on ketchup unless I have scrambled eggs, which I rarely have (though I did today).
  5. Used to go to this place called 'The Dugout'. They had Long Islands teas that tasted so good, you could hardly tell you were drinking alcohol at all. Till you stood up.
  6. Take a burger, put a fried egg, some pulled pork, some onion rings and some bacon. Then call an ambulance :-)
  7. yeah, I just never saw all those letters put together before. Thanks Chi.
  8. I don't know what 'IMOFWIW' means, but the only thing I eat at McDonald's is the McGridle. And even then, that's maybe twice a year when my son convinces me to go there. I haven't had a burger there in, I don't even know how long. IMO, worst burger out of all the major hamburger joints.
  9. I think someone here did a good job debunking the whole Dozier to opposite field narrative a few weeks ago. If I can find it, I'll try to post it. In any event, according to B-Ref, he's gone RF like 56 PAs. (or less than 10% of the time). Basically, the same amount as last year. That's not what's turned Dozier's season around.
  10. Their April pitching wasn't so bad (depending on what you're looking at), their May pitching was horrific.
  11. My brother went to four different high schools, one year apiece. He didn't enjoy it one bit. it likely cost him a full baseball scholarship.
  12. http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/22/health/best-worst-states-raise-children/ (CNN)Minnesota reigns as the most kid-friendly state to raise a family for the second year in a row, according to an Annie E. Casey Foundation study. They use a carefully developed methodology to tally each state's composite score in four main categories: Economic and health conditions, education and quality of communities.
  13. I agree Molitor needs to go, but how many Twins players right now do you think would make a 25 man roster for an ALL AL Central team. Dozier? That's a problem with talent when there are only 5 teams in the AL Central. How about the ALL AL team? Probably still Dozier, but he wouldn't be starting, right? Altuve would do that. We certainly we would have no pitching on either team. This team isn't loaded with talent. Molitor's lineups and in-game management, along with the lack of fundamentals this team has, warrant his firing, but no manager makes this team an 80 win team, or perhaps even a 70 win team. The talent doesn't stack up.
  14. He's been back for, what, 13 games now? In the last 14 days, he's started 12 games and hit .333/.404/.714 in 48 PA. He's also sported a BABIP of .455. He's struck out 33% of the time, which is very close to striking out as much as Cody said he had in his first 109 games. Then you look at what he's done in the last 7 days (which is included in the awesome last 14 games time frame): 6 games started, 24 PA, .158/.304/.316. (with a BABIP of .222), striking out 40%. So what's happened was, he had an AWESOME first week back. That's what happened. He looks better, but he's got a ways to go.
  15. For a moment there, I thought he might fall down right after rounding 3rd :-)
  16. except when you get to watch Buxton fly around the bases.
  17. I'm thinking his long term position is at the counter of a Burger King. Maybe the fry station
  18. Ah Duffey...a cornerstone of our rotation...
  19. Try Cake Wars, Face Off, Top Chef...
  20. I feel so bad for you.
  21. I have to catch up on Homeland. My wife hastily bought me the first 4 seasons after I said I liked the first couple episodes :-)
  22. This thread is likely to be either locked or merged with Seth's http://twinsdaily.com/topic/23899-message-to-season-ticket-holders/
  23. I can't even eat the thin crust from there, but my experience mostly comes from their stuffed pizzas. Again, the flavor of the ingredients are good, but the dough has no real flavor. Then again, Papa Johns is horrible all around and Pizza Hut is just grease. I am really close to giving up pizza altogether though.
  24. Well, first, if I didn't like the taste of Papa Murphy's I wouldn't have bought it. Problem I have with it is the dough, just like my main problem with Subway is it's bread. I imagine many would say, when looking at just Pizza chain restaurants, that Papa Murphys is very good by comparison. But bigger cities have other types of Pizza places that make unbelievable Pizza's. For example, about 30 of them in Chicago and it's surrounding areas (can't speak to NY, cause I have never and will never go there;-)).
  25. I imagine TR also thought Meyer had Ace, or #2, stuff or trading Span for him would have seemed, um, sillier than it turned out to be. I can't remember even the most optimistic saying May would be an ace. That includes fans.
