    Correct. Jeff Passan tweeted yesterday the owner’s plan was to hire someone above her - after she just built the first team to make the playoffs in a full season since 2003. Anyone in her position would tell the organization to F themselves on the way out of the door. She will be off to way better opportunities soon.

    I’m surprised not to read anything about adding another bat. This team needs at least 1, I would argue 2, middle of the order bats. And for me, acquiring those bats is a higher priority than throwing money at a Sonny Gray replacement.

    1 first down in the 2nd half before the final drive to ice the game says everything. I know we always play awful at Soldier Field but my god. I truly don’t understand why Mattison is getting 95% of the touches. He is not a bell cow RB, and never was.

    Glad I went outside and walked my dog instead of watching the 2nd half.

    Finally they finish a drive with a TD. Blocked PAT, because of course.

    Captain Check Down Kirk reporting for duty

    Kirk’s favorite play after a huge gain… Hurry up and throw to Hockenson in the flat for 2 yards.

    Bump

    We have hit the bottom of the barrel for announcing crews.
  10. Vanimal46
    Yeah I can’t take much more of this game. Just another turnover that won’t end up being Kirk Cousins’ fault.

    I’m absolutely bailing on watching the game next week. I may bail at halftime this game. The sun just came out.

    Because we are petrified of playing a RB without experience for some reason. Every time Chandler touches the ball he’s shot out of a cannon.

    The refs bailed us out of that comedy of errors. That was the most pathetic attempt at recovering a fumble I’ve seen.

    His wife had an incident in a Target parking lot where she waved for the other car to go, and the other driver insisted she should go instead. Long story short, they’re still insisting that the other one should go 28 hours later. And that’s why they need to explore other areas in the country.
  15. Vanimal46
    Correct. What else would Sonny Gray say at this time? Of course he should consider returning to the organization where he’s played his best stretch of baseball in his career.

    I was that way with tomatoes… After the 2 volunteer cherry tomato plants blossomed, I could not keep up with picking and eating them. Plus the other 3 tomato plants that I planted myself. I’ve been donating them or giving them away for the last 6 weeks. Depending on if we go through all of the stewed tomatoes that we canned earlier this year, I’ll cut back on the tomatoes next year. I wish I planted another row of onions.

    Have no fear. When Minnesota gets an expansion team in the National Pickleball Association and wins it all in 2040, all will be forgotten. They will unite every MN sports fan young and old.

    Do we have a link for the first poll in the winter? From memory I think I said mid 80s wins. First team to 82 wins is the AL Central champ. The Twins pretty much met my expectations in the regular season. And obviously exceeded it in the postseason by winning a series.
  19. Vanimal46
    Concur. You get it, the discussion doesn’t have to be either/or. The Twins have enough money to sign a frontline FA starter/trade for one, and acquire a middle of the order bat.
  20. Vanimal46
    Lots of ups and downs over 162 games. Early on in the season I did not enjoy watching the team. The offense was struggling to score more than 4 runs a game, and the strikeouts were piling up. It pains me to say this, but the team became more enjoyable to watch for me when Buxton was shut down, and the 3 rookies got their extended run of play time. The Twins were trending up at the end of the season, which is a welcomed sight after the previous teams crashed and burned in the final stretch of the season.
  21. Vanimal46
    If they are going to miss out on the top free agent SPs like Gray, Nola, Snell, Ohtani (lol), and Ed Rodriguez, then I’m good with making another trade. Why would we not double down on our strength for next year?
  22. Vanimal46
    Dreamer. I bet the trio Falvey, Levine, and Rocco get an A++ rating from the Pohlad family this season.
  23. Vanimal46
    This team HAS to sign offense in free agency. It’s going to be very tough to replicate the pitching performance from this season. The future depends on Royce Lewis truly being a star for a full season, resolving the Buxton situation, and replacing Sonny Gray/Kenta Maeda.
  24. Vanimal46
    That hurts. It also hurts that there will be no changes because the other AL Central teams gave up, and we broke the streak.
  25. Vanimal46
    Nice to meet you. Wish I had core memories of celebrating a WS title when I was 1 year old.
