Glutton for punishment?


I love the Twins no matter what, they have been my favorite sports team since I was a wee lad and they have two World Championships in my life that I will never forget. We could lose 100 games 10 years in a row and it wouldn't make me love them any less.

You know me, give me all the abuse. If I really wanted to end the punishment don't you think I would have stopped being a Minnesota sports fan a long time ago?

You and me both

I can't root for any non MN teams, I don't have it in me. Plus I'd have to redo my wardrobe

I could never root for a non Minnesota team, I would quit watching the sport before I did that!

I'm not sure how old you are, but I was around for both world series. 1987 I don't remember as well, as I was 7, but at 11, I recall the 91 season/series very well. As Twins games were cheap, it was the one team I was able to go to regularly. I can always hear Bob Casey call of #34 in my head. So I get it.

I go whenever @kobesgame gives me free tickets.
Or @BeerMe

I was 19 when we won in 87 and obviously 23 in 1991 so I remember them quite well.

I was 5 for the 87 series so limited memory on that one but was 9 for the 91 series and it was awesome. Waving my homer hanky like crazy.

more great Vikings history made this year, the 2016 club is now 1 of only 3 clubs in NFL history to start 5-0 and miss the playoffs, good job:thumb:

I'm surprised the other two to do it aren't Vikings teams as well...

and just like that, the Packers steamroll the Giants in the wildcard round. Plus, I dislike and/or am sick of all the teams remaining in the playoffs on the whole aside from Atlanta, KC, and Houston. Never thought I'd find myself rooting this hard for Dallas this postseason after we started off 5-0 and GB was tanking at the time...

As of now, I think we're looking at a NE vs. Dallas or GB SB, but I'm hoping for KC vs. ATL for a change of pace. At the very least, GB needs to be knocked out... as much as I like seeing underdogs do well in the postseason on occasion, I just don't want to see GB land another title after going 10-6, lol...

Expecting to hear the Vikes have scheduled visits with some OLmen in the next few weeks...after they've visited several other teams. Not sure there is anyone out there they should aggressively pursue and end up overspending on.
