  1. I'm trying to imagine who would greet us at the gate of RB World.... The band members from Bulletboys? W.A.S.P.? White Snake?
  2. On that particular evening, no, I most certainly did not. But, I did redeem myself 12-13 years later when I saw her at a random bar in the Twin Cities!
  3. I'd really like to be a human being in the same room as TR and PM. Quite frankly I don't think flies comprehend English.... I mean, they never oblige when I say to them "Get out of here, fly!"
  4. I believe Hulu has full episodes now! http://www.hulu.com/mr-robot
  5. Genie in a bottle takes me back to an embarrassing time in my life... The year: 1999. I was 9 years old at the time, and heading to my first co-ed Halloween party at a girl's house down the street. The party was going well - there was a punch bowl, and a bunch of snacks on a folding table in the garage. Also in the garage was the dance floor. The girls were in one corner of the dance floor giggling about something... I didn't get the scoop on what. Then, the next song played on the jukebox: Christina Aguilera "Genie in a Bottle" Apparently this was the perfect song for the girl who had a crush on me to make her move. This girl, let's call her Paige in order to protect the innocent, approached me on the side of the garage near the punch bowl and snacks. Her next words.... "I want to be your genie and make your wish come true." Paige then leaned in to kiss me on the lips. Remember, this is when I was 9 years old.... I was shocked that this was happening! So shocked, that I knocked her backwards INTO the punch bowl and snacks. The table collapsed, and she was humiliated. Turns out I ran into Paige during the college years, and she brought this story up over 10 years later. It was blocked out of my mind for years, but when she told me the story, it all started coming back. I was a real smooth cat back in the day....
  6. I can understand that. There's no other show on TV to compare it to. I loved it because it was so different than the normal dramas you see on TV. And that every episode felt like a mini movie.
  7. It's getting more difficult by the day to browse the Twins Talk forums.
  8. * Cue up Sarah McLachlan's "I Will Remember You" and pictures of sad, lonely animals *
  9. Yep. Pick your poison of 3B, LF, RF.. any would have worked. IMO they doubled up on the mistake by having him learn 1B. Basically eliminated one of his strengths, the good arm in the field.
  10. Yep. Dexter Fowler has been a key cog to the Cubs, and my fantasy baseball team. You, me, and several others over the off-season where basically pleading for the team to sign a legit veteran OF and bullpen arm(s). This is the 2nd year in a row that the organization has completely misjudged the readiness of prospects in the system.
  11. Season 2 drops July 13th! Can't wait!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YibylhkLwGo
  12. Holy bleep you guys! Today is National Devil's Food Cake Day!! That's an all-time favorite cake in my book.... Today is also National May Ray Day! A day where you're supposed to soak in the sunshine and enjoy a nice spring day! Ironically, Austin has around 220 days of sunshine a year, and the one day this holiday falls on, it's heavy thunderstorms all day.

    I've never heard of it. What's it about?
  14. As I look out of the window in my office and see thunderstorms roll in, reading this piece is very fitting this morning. There's going to be a lot of stormy days with this franchise until the young players step up their game.
  15. I think there will always be those risks as long as the Pohlad's own the team. They don't have any examples in their past hiring people without ties to the organization. We can only hope there's a breaking point with Jim and he seeks help from the outside.
  16. I'm going to head out and bury my head in some sand. Let me know when this nightmare of Arcia-Santana-Mastro-Grossman is over.
  17. It would be just like what the Minnesota Wild did. Dougie Baseball or Glynn comes in on an interim basis. If they don't turn it around, nothing's lost. They can sign someone else in the off-season.
  18. Great... Thanks Danchat. Now I have to go change ALL of my passwords.....
  19. The Philadelphia 76ers made that compromise a couple of years ago when they were a terrible basketball team. If they scored 90 points in a game, the promotion was in play. The Twins are going to have to figure it out.. Thank god for the Lynx! Otherwise there would rarely be discounted pizza in the Twin Cities!
  20. Ron Burgandy said it best in these kind of situations: "I'm not even mad. That's amazing."
  21. I'm one level away from being Randy Quaid in Major League... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAZU6DYwTDM
  22. Not surprising. Bremer's been the President of the Front Office Apologist Association for years.
  23. Tangent question about Tommy Milone... Now that he passed through waivers, let's say they call him up and want to send him back down to AAA. Does he have to go through waivers every time?
  24. In the off-season I was against tendering Nunez, but so far this season he's proven doubters like me wrong. The trade return for Nunez would be nothing special, so is it better for him to remain on the team as a utility guy? Or trade him away? Personally I hope the Twins aim higher and find out what they could get for Dozier. If Dozier is traded, Nunez could serve as a good stop-gap before Polanco establishes himself as the starting 2B.
  25. Could you share the comments?
