More Twins Baseball

As I said earlier this week, Twins baseball is simply spending enough money to keep the fans happy but not enough to have a real chance to win a title because we don't want any "down years". Once again the Twins are already setting themselves up to keep up the Twins Baseball tradition. The worst part is a lot of fans and even media members are enablers this year!!! I could not believe it when I heard it today, but on a certain station up the dial from KFAN (who actually has the balls to call out the Twins) had the audacity to say that maybe the Twins will stay put because of this late winning streak.....WINNING STREAK!!!!! We've won 3 fritten games!!! And that is coming off a 1-5 stretch against Joakland and Anaheim - who is missing probably its 2 best RH hitters. 3 games is not a real winning streak, especially when 1 win was a gift from the White Sox thanks to a couple of errors. I have heard fans saying similar things too. This is absolutely asinine! Win streak. Phooey. Get back to me when we knock off 7 or 8 in a row, or 12 of 15. REAL contenders do that. Pretenders go 6-4 then 4-6 (sound familiar)

We ponied up the dough for a stadium, its time for the Twins to pony up a few paychecks that they don't really want to - especially if they are short term. I wouldn't be suprised if the St. Paul Saints payroll didn't eclipse the Twins one of these years.
