It is sad that their aren't. I used to love the daily minor league updates. But this team had submarined too many fans. Fanbase has given up.

I still love my Twins...that's why I really hate what the Pohlads are doing to it.

****ers

Yep, I miss those updates from director of minor league scouting, Ed Funk. I miss the banter with SMF. I miss the McMurphy drive bys. I miss the departed; nice guy Conrad Dahl, Todd Gray and his wonderfully warped sense of humor, even grumpy Jim Frenette and his defiant placement of a Top Chef thread in Twins talk.

Ah yes. Top chef. Which precipitated one of my most famous meltdowns.

First question in the interview "what is the least amount you will accept?"

Wait for it.













Nick Punto to be the manager.


It's like they want me to abandon them as a fan.
