    Twins win, but unfortunately Pablo Lopez left after 72 pitches and is in line for another IL stint (shoulder tightness). https://www.startribune.com/twins-starter-pablo-lopez-injured-shoulder/601366858

    Knicks fire Thibs!

    PTI mentioned today that the Knicks had won a grand total of 7 playoff games in the last 18 years combined. This year they won 10. Too much prosperity?!?!

    Vikings legend Jim Marshall passes away

    If playing in EVERY game in the 1960s & 1970s wasn't enough to get him to Canton, OH, I would have thought this picture should have warranted enshrinement.

    Vikings legend Jim Marshall passes away

    Actually only cost the Vikes a safety. Ultimately, the Purple also won the game. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/196410250sfo.htm As for #70. Rats.

    Great Reusse column on his lifelong fandom of our Gophers!

    Congrats you have now cracked double digits on that derogatory pet nick name for Mr Reusse. So your solution to that is use multiple crass terms and be a fat shamer? Pot. Kettle. Black. The article in the original post is quite good with a bit of self-deprecation and humor. Quite...

    Royce Lewis on an 0fer30 cooler. Glad he's upbeat about it, but I wouldn't mind if he turned into a jerk now and then and hit .250 or so. https://www.startribune.com/minnesota-twins-royce-lewis-slump-rocco-baldelli-athletics-mlb/601366188 Longest 0-fers in Twins history: (Position players)...

    For MIN-LAD, I thought it was interesting that Jim Thome was the Most Popular at 11%, which is pretty small for that honor. Thome played a whopping 17 games in Dodger Blue. I suppose just lots of identifiable options for those 2 teams, but not really anyone that was career defining for both...

    2 summers ago we had a family reunion on Cape Cod, renting 4 houses scattered around Eastham & Wellfleet. One of the houses, while only 2 miles from the coast was also directly behind a Drive-In, just a few hundred yards behind it. A few of us were interested in going but the double bill was...

    Day 1 and the quest for a perfect month is over. I mixed up Ed Kranepool with Ed Hearn for Mets Catcher. 🤬

    Also credit the throw by the Mariner CF. That was a tracer, but still, never make the 1st out at Home.

    Might have been the difference in what turns into a 5-4 defeat in 11 innings. Ultimately, poor base running cost the Twins big time.

    All Twins gets a very respectable Rarity Score of 14 today. If you use Tovar as a Catcher (1 game) as well as Cruz & Molitor at positions prior to their days in Minnesota, one can write a pretty formidable starting offensive lineup. 1. Molitor / 2B 2. Carew / 1B 3. Puckett / CF 4. Killebrew...
