I did get sucked into that “fight” as well. At least I saw part of it during the time Netflix wasn’t buffering. I don’t have high hopes for them hosting NFL games later this year.
Started watching Cross on Amazon Prime. A series based on the Alex Cross book series by James Patterson. 2 episodes in and I’m hooked! Amazon Prime knocked it out of the park with this show.
In case if you haven’t heard, we have no money to work with. It’s not like anyone wants to trade Lopez, but he’s the one player we have that accomplishes two things - most money to shed from the payroll, and most value received back in a trade.
It’s unlikely we’re going to hear about an interested party until the deal is 99% done. Then we will get a Jeff Passan bomb on Twitter saying Jeff Bezos is finalizing a deal to buy the Twins.
She’s still smoking hot at 58 years old! And would be a fascinating date. All of my celebrity crushes are older than me… Beyoncé, Jennifer Anniston, Julie Bowen, Keri Russell.
I was listening to SKOR North’s Twins Show. Declan Goff and Judd Zulgad said a firm has been hired to facilitate the sale so it sounds to me like the Pohlads are very serious about selling.
I don’t think they’d be making these type of personnel decisions if an acquisition wasn’t close… Just in my experience, the Chief Revenue Officer was selected to lead the organization through the acquisition. Department heads were consolidated and everyone started reporting into him. Middle management was next to leave. So in less than 3 months, I went from reporting into a Regional Sales Manager to the CRO and so did everyone else. The sales team shrunk from 50+ to 20 and we operated like a skeleton crew.
The decisions being made right now are specifically to improve the bottom line for a sale. Nothing more or less. I’ve been a part of a company prepping to be sold to a larger company, and saw pretty much the same things happening in the corporate world.
I truly don’t understand the hate for Kevin O’Connell as HC. He’s been by far the best hire out of the 2022 class of new head coaches and will be the HC here for many years.
What sort of voodoo magic did the Lions perform to get the results they're getting this season? Goff is the 3rd QB in 30 years to win a game throwing 5 INTs.
