  1. Jerry Ujdur definitely a blast from my past, having been born in Duluth in 1957 as well. The older I get the more I enjoy harking back to the glory days. Thanks again for keeping this regular feature going.
  2. Thanks again - always my happiest read of the week!
  3. Love how you can go into hyperbolic histrionics over this.
  4. Old one: Butch Wynegar described by narrator in depth. Final line "he loves baseball so much, he'd probably play for free". Then Close-up of smiling Calvin Griffith saying "I really like that kid!"
  5. Great stuff. I loved the Met. I remember driving up to it, monolith like on the undeveloped land, surrounded by great big parking lots, walking in up those ramp-like structures to the cheap seats. Such Wonderful memories. That 1960 Olympic hockey team had some great Minnesotans on it. Don't forget Tommy Williams from Duluth.
  6. These get better every week. Thanks again for this. Baseball has so many awesome stories and you find share so many Twins-related ones. It is especially fun for us this old-timer who goes back almost to the (Minnesota) beginning.
  7. Yes, so much so that it probably shouldn't be described on a family website
  8. you can get excited about whatever you want. I'd rather not have someone tell me what I should or should not get excited about.
  9. Matt - you've definitely hit your stride with these Almanacs. This is great, great stuff. Such a fun read. Thanks so much for contributing.
  10. IMO we are lucky to have Berardino
  11. Reminds me of the economist who predicted seven of the last three recessions.
  12. So Darvish hasn't met with the Twins - has he met with all 29 other teams? How many has he met with?
  13. Matt Great stuff - thanks so much for putting this together. As a fan whose first Twins memory traces back to 1963, I love reading this walk through history. And I can always learn something. I went to Denfeld, lived in Duluth for 40 years and played in Wade Stadium, but I never knew the Rip Wade story. So here's hoping for more Almanacs. (Worst moustache? Keith Atherton)
  14. Hard to argue with Marc Normandin, that's for sure
  15. This is a really nice breakdown, Tom. I don't know the answer, but you gave me a lot to think about.
  16. I'll hold my breath if I want to
