Gonna be honest, if the Twins are competitive in their divison this year I might turn into a Twins fan in the AL

 

Sure they love bbbbbbbunting, and they've made plenty of dumb trades, but their front office is the antithesis of ours, and hell they got a bunch of players you can be proud of rooting for.

 

They remind me too much of the Cardinals to ever consider that.

I just don't want the Brewers to win it. I am sick of their bush league behavior. I would pull for the Cardinals before them.

 

You must not live in Missouri, haha.

I don't, but have a ton of family who are Cards fans. Even with that, I still would rather the Cards win the division.

 

I could never pull for the Cardinals over anybody unless it helped the Cubs in the standings (not even a Yankees or White Sox vs. Cardinals WS), but that's just me.

Why? I mean I don't like them when they are getting lucky performances to hurt our chances, but our team isn't going anywhere this season. If we suck I could care less if they take advantage of that. The Brewers are a joke, they have been ok the last couple of years, not better than us but ok. Yet they trot around like they are the best thing since sliced bread. It isn't just us that feel that way either. Act like you've been there before.

I agree about the Brewers. My point is that unless they are playing a team comprised of Al Qaeda members, I would rather the Cardinals not succeed.

In what ways? How the teams constructed? I dunno, I'm such a Mauer fan, their pitching is always very good, and it seems like they've got a handful of hitters that know what they are doing.

 

They are held back by Carlos Gomez, Nick Punto and plenty more hitters that have absolutely no idea what they are doing

Well yeah I too would like to see the Pirates win the division, but that ain't happening. I find it harder to root for Dusty than I do the Red birds.

I'm not watching my tv downstairs since this is so bad, so is Theriot still swinging for the fences? You think he'd be smart enough to realize it isn't working.

Brenly ripping them isn't going to do much. Lou needs to invite the media in, then rip the team a new one.

 

If Lou doesn't erupt like Mt. St. Helens, he's gotta go.

Bob is ripping on the team today. He'll prob be fired tomorrow.

It's the Jim Hendry way. Don't you dare question the team hes built.

 

it's not jim hendry, it was a-holes like moises alou who complained when stone criticized them.
