Things to think about:

 

1. Think about Andrew Albers... There is no way he is not thought number one after his debut. Wouldn't we love to see him do it again.

 

2. Think about Salazar... He's a young pitcher for the Indians who is also just getting started with his career. Indian Fans like us Twins Fans are hoping that Salazar can keep pitching well like we are with Albers.

 

3. Think about Canada... A country full of pleasant yet odd people... Odd Phrasings... Accents... Money and Hats. Yet tonight we are hoping that Saskatchewan Native Albers and BC Native Justin Morneau can keep doing what they were doing. For tonights game... The Twins will be relying more on Canadians than the Wild do. Oh Canada... Our Home and Native Land.

 

4. Think about Jamey Carroll... He's been traded to the Royals. Good for Jamey... I hope he has a great couple months in KC.

 

5. Think About Pizza... Canadian Bacon Pizza... While working the penalty box during a High School age Hockey Tourney... I once asked 10 different Canadian Youth Hockey players this question when they came into the penalty box. "If you put Ham on a Pizza what is it called?"

 

Only 1 of them said "Canadian Bacon"... 2 of them said "I don't know" and 7 of them said "Ham Pizza".

Canadian Bacon is good on pizza, but American Bacon is much, much better.

Lucky you. You actually have a life. The rest of us will watch the Twins game and try not to fall asleep/fall into a state of depression.

There it is... With that fly ball 9 IP... 0 runs allowed...

"Jam shot."

 

Ya'll know what to do.

Andrew Albers will never give up a run in his major league career. I'm convinced.

Dozier! And with that, gotta go.

​Dozier

Brian Dozier is the greatest second baseman in the history of baseball. I'm convinced.

Well that post will just leave us wanting more!!!

For me it's just fall asleep.

I say we keep this Dozier fella for awhile, he's pretty good.

More and more he's a keeper. And a hottie, too!

Have a great night and try not to get pregnant my friend.

All these HR's can only mean ohfer in September I fear.

Defense... Some Pop... Effort... I am with you my Canadian Friend.

More and more he's a keeper. And a hottie, too!

 

If not for you ChiTown I would have no idea which Twins players are hot.

"Jam shot."

 

Ya'll know what to do.

 

like i need a reason.

I have no perspective here so I must ask. Considering these ball players are in the prime of their life and for the most part athletic.

 

They all gotta be doing pretty good in that department... Right?

Have a great night and try not to get pregnant my friend.

 

GLORM!!!

 

How are you doing?

 

Now you type -- "I don't know how I'm doing... It just happens".

Canadian bacon is the biggest sham we have perpetrated on the American public.

 

Hopefully Albers isn't.

Pfft... This game appears easy for Albers.

If Diamond can keep his act up like he did yesterday and Albers keeps pitching like he has, 40% of the Twins rotation could be Canadian.......we're comin'.

Okay, topic shift. I saw my first ever pair of truck nuts. I had no idea and was like wtf??? Googled it and indeed these are actually things people but and put on their vehicles. Have any of you heard of this???
