    That's way too much work.... Better off to just shoot from the lip and apologize later.
  2. Vanimal46
    He did attach a Twitter handle, so he may be the real deal! Someone was going to take the username eventually. What better time than 12 hours before it's announced he has the job?!

    The cupcake portion of the schedule is over. The running game is on point. Really like the 3 headed rushing attack of Brooks, Smith, and Leidner. Still not sold on Leidner's ability to be a consistent passer... We'll see how they do in Big 10 play beginning this week.
  4. Vanimal46
    Agreed. It's also very simple to make the move to VJ for us TD folks. Your username is the same as here. So just log in and post away.
  5. Vanimal46
    Agreed. Especially when it comes to the analytics team. They need to basically double the staff, not eliminate and start completely over. For most every department, I'd be looking to add on staff, not subtract.

    Those like tasty... Do you have the raspberry syrup recipe? Or is it a family secret recipe?
  7. Vanimal46
    I can't see Mauer with an ego. I'm sure he'd like to play as much as he can. Like you said, it's up to Falvey and the manager setting the expectation they'd like to keep him fresh in a decreased role.
  8. Vanimal46
    It's happening!! Still holding out a little hope that McLeod is the PBO and Falvey is the GM... Either way new blood will be welcomed with open arms here.

    OPH was the go-to breakfast spot after a night out at the bars when I lived in MN... Loved their 49ers pancakes. That, or whoever made biscuits and gravy.
  10. Vanimal46
    Do you mix the veggies into the batter? Or just put them on top once the pancakes are fresh off the griddle?
  11. Vanimal46
    Happy Monday! Today is National Pancake Day! Any day with breakfast food involved is a great day. I'm a big fan of blueberry pancakes. Any other pancake combinations to try? Today is also National Dumpling Day! One of my favorite soups if I'm in the mood for Chinese... Finally, on this day in 1960, JFK and Richard Nixon settle in for the first televised Presidential debate in U.S. history. JFK won over the national audience as he was much more comfortable in front of the camera compared to Nixon. Nixon refused to wear makeup on set, and appeared nervous about the situation.

    DVR and Hulu could help you out! Rarely do I watch TV shows live, unless it's Fargo.
  13. Vanimal46
    This would solve some roster construction problems, and make the PBO opportunity more intriguing. Freeing up $24 million a year immediately is a big deal.
  14. Vanimal46
    I'd hang on to Mauer for 1 more season. He should not be a lock for a starting role anymore. There's still value in 250-300 Mauer at bats in a season. He could be useful in a platoon/bench role.
  15. Vanimal46
    RIP Arnold Palmer.
  16. Vanimal46
    What in the world?!! My goodness... 24 is way too young to leave this Earth... I will miss watching him on the field.
  17. Vanimal46
    Now we've got a couple of companies trying to pick up the slack called Fasten and Fare. The only positive from them is they don't do surge pricing when it's late at night or a big event going on. The negatives outweigh the positives though. Their apps have crashed more often than not, and they don't have enough drivers out there working for them. We really miss Uber down here.
  18. Vanimal46
    Losing the first 9 games of the season while striking out 15+ times a game ranks right up there.
  19. Vanimal46
    You're a good college dad, RB. I was very fortunate to have my parents chip in on the rent payment, and car insurance / cell phone. The beer and fun money had to come from me working... If I blew through that in one weekend, well, I was out of luck.
  20. Vanimal46
    Me too. I'm a little more concerned that he's not recognizing pitches, swinging away at breaking balls out of the zone, and pulling his head during his swing. As a semi-recent 23 year old, we think we know everything about the world already. Some times it takes a failure like this to get the message across.
  21. Vanimal46
    Let's hope he learned his lesson after this season... I would love to see a dedicated, fit Sano ready to get back on track.
  22. Vanimal46
    Lavelle E. Neal wrote an article about Miguel Sano's off-season plan. That he's dedicated to playing 3B full-time, and looking to lose 20 lbs. Same thing we heard last year around this time...
  23. Vanimal46
    He sounds like he'd be delightful to run into at a party.
  24. Vanimal46
    Soooo that finale. Holy bleep.
  25. Vanimal46
    He can be brought back for next season. I wouldn't be afraid to have a quick DFA finger, as I can't imagine other teams would be salivating to pick him up from the Twins.
