  1. Being 15 years old in 1987 and 19 in 1991, Kirby couldn't have made a bigger impression on me as a baseball crazed teenager. I'd give tens of thousands of dollars today to go back in time to that Metrodome and hear the "Kirbeeeeee Puckett" on the PA and see those championship teams again.
  2. Hrbek was snubbed and did not make the ASG roster one year early in his career. He stated in the press somewhere along the lines of he will never and doesn't want to go to the ASG again and everyone obliged. I'm sure a quick Google search can confirm the details, that's the version I remember anyway. Everyone who has lived in the the Twin Cities for an extended period of time seems to (greater Minnesota also to an extent) have a Herbie story. He's approachable and just a normal guy.
  3. Time heals most wounds. I'd think at some point the Twins and Knoblauch might want to reunite and do the induction. Not all Twins legends have squeaky clean histories.
  4. The Twins cancelled his induction into the Twins Hall of Fame in 2014 when he was charged with assaulting a family member. He certainly deserves it based on the numbers. I wonder if the Twins will ever change course and induct Knoblauch into the Twins Hall of Fame?
  5. Darn, why did I give away my Eddie Rosario shirt to charity?
  6. I'd rather see a season opening rotation with Ober, Ryan, Dobnak, Balazovic, and Duran over Dylan Bundy. Maybe the FO can catch lightning in a bottle with Bundy, doubtful though.
  7. Hall of Very Good along with Torii Hunter. Hall of Horrible as a broadcaster so far. Yes, he has improved since he started. He's still awful behind the mic and having Mr. Bland Dick Bremer by his side doesn't help.
  8. Yes, this is an instant classic. Although, within a week of Thanksgiving, it's nightmarish to have Zach "I missed first base" Granite jammed back into your stream of consciousness.
  9. As a fellow Twins fan who lived through the Ron Davis years, this is accurate. You never really recover from the RD experience. I remember a middle school Spanish class where the authorized topic of conversation for the entire hour was how awful RD was.
  10. I already have my hotel reservations in Cooperstown so I can witness the 2024 Hall of Fame induction of Joe Mauer.
  11. They were both before my time. However, if I had a vote then they both are in as no brainers.
  12. This seems coincidental and not anything done with any purpose by the Twins coaching staff.
  13. The Twins were World Series champions twice in the Metrodome.
  14. He should switch his jersey number to 47. AK47 on the back of the jersey would be sweet.
  15. When the season finally ended and there was no more pain.
  16. Happy that this train wreck on top of a car crash of a season is over and done with. I felt a bit of sadness on Sunday that there is no more Twins baseball for 2021... yet, no more pain. Sweet release.
  17. 120 games is a full season for a center fielder now?
  18. I can't remember a season where there were fewer things to care about at the end of a losing season. I see very few items of interest to keep the fan base engaged.
  19. The best ability is availability.
  20. No research necessary - we are one of the worst of all time.
  21. This doesn't make me hopeful for the future. I'm sure I will feel better and more optimistic come spring training 2022.
  22. That's why when I have the same rant about how awful the Minnesota championship drought is, I clarify "men's professional sports teams". Otherwise, people throw the Lynx, UMD hockey, and other titles won by teams located in this state in your face. Just for the record, I do consider the Lynx championships as equal to a Twins, Vikings, Wild, or Wolves championship just a different category.
  23. The weather, ballpark, giveaways, and watching opposing players of interest are the remaining reasons to attend a Twins game at Target Field at this point in the 2021 season.
  24. What is a "Royale"? ? I'd like a Royale with cheese, please.
