February Sucks
So now we have nothing to do sports-wise until pitchers and catcher report in two weeks. And even then, watching Boof Bonser run wind sprints on the local news every night is not something I look forward to. We have analyzed and debated pretty much everything there is to argue about the Twins. Possible trade, possible signing, potential lineups, potential bench players, the list goes on. As someone who seems to have an opinion/conspiracy theory about everything, I can honestly say I have run out of topics on the Twins. For now. We’ve been at this for about a year now. We might be the only people who thought it would be a good idea to start a baseball blog in January, but I want to thank everyone who has been reading us on a regular basis. Thats right, all three of you.
The new Twins ad aired during the game last night, I thought it was OK. Not sure why Target field would be receiving a delivery of lumber. Are they planning on making lots of things out of wood? Also, why are our highly paid athletes driving trucks? While wearing uniforms? Is Pohlad (I know he is “dead”, but I think its all a scam for tax purposes) that cheap that he is putting them to work in the off season as truck drivers? Isn’t that a union thing, I hope the teamsters don’t sabotage the construction site. As you can see, by that previous line of questions I have begun to go crazy due to lack of baseball, or exciting baseball related news.
That is all.

Surely there will follow some Twins ads that could be fun, given the beginning premise. FunBobby – so you’re going crazy. Fine, but be nice to Teamsters. Two weeks dude. Just hang on!
I thought they did a nice job with the ad, and they certainly got a lot of players involved. I didn’t see Cuddy, Delmon, Blackburn, or Perkins- strangely enough, the guys that keep coming up in trade talks. Maybe that’s too paranoid.
I didn’t see the ad, as for some reason they didn’t broadcast it in Chicago. There are a metric f-ton of Twins fans here, they should cater to our needs, damn it.
But I hear it involved Mauer, Morneau, and Nathan. Those are the big names/faces known by marginal fans who haven’t been scratching their eyes out for the last two and a half interminable months without baseball.
It has nothing to do with trading away Cuddyer and Delmon, or anyone else.
The ad had Mauer, Morneau, Nathan, Liriano, Span, Casilla, Gomez, Punto, Baker, and Slowey. That’s pretty much everyone. Not that I’m ascribing to my own crazy conspiracy theory for a second- but you can see who was left out.
