      1. Gah! Pasting together different palindromes I know, I tried making sense of them.
        Then I removed parts but didn't get them all. Edited to show as it should have been.

      1. that was awesome, and he is right. They competed most of the game last night despite playing jv guys in the front line.

        1. Even better than general Rubio unicorn-ness is that he has a good enough relationship with Shved, who I believe has the potential to be an all-star caliber player. Rubio+Shved on the same page could be an incredible foundation.

          1. The Czar was complimentary to both last night, but said they need to get in the gym during the off-season to shoot 1,000 jumpers per day. He is right. When those two develop consistent outside shooting, they will be a heck of a tandem.

      2. It's like he's now a true Minnesotan!
        Change your face: turn the frown the other way around!
        Be happy, sticky bun come soon... Enjoy!

  1. My brain's too squishy to play this game. However, I did hear a line from a song this morning that I can't seem to shake:

    If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.
    -Dawes, From a Window Seat

  2. Mark Salas, Truck Hannah, Eddie Kazak, Toby Harrah, Dave Otto, Dick Nen, and Robb Nen are probably pleased about today.

    1. And then there's Stanley Yelnats. (Please tell me there's someone else here who has read Holes. If not, you all have homework this weekend!)

      1. My 12 year old daughter made me read it. It was good!

        We got 20 minutes into the movie and she turned it off because it bothered her so much that they used a cute actor for the lead when he was supposed to be a chubby kid.

    2. Does anyone else remember a TV special from way back with a character named Ognir Rrats, played by a guy named Richard Starkey?

    1. I was thinking about searching for quotes that he has expressed similar concern over visitng teams when Duke students have rushed the court, but I have a feeling there are none.

      1. Has it ever happened before? For fans to storm the court, it has to be a major upset, right? Isn't Duke always supposed to win, especially at home?

        1. I just assumed it had to have at some point. I mean, college students are dumb so they may not understand what storming the court means and do it even when Duke is favored, or some such.

          1. There was a riot of some sort at Mankato State when they lost some game. I missed it and slept through the entire thing. I'm just not very good with these social things.

        2. Maybe during the season when Coach K walked away to protect his career record.

  3. Dammit I’m mad.
    Evil is a deed as I live.
    God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt.
    To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss.
    Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help?
    Man, it is hot. I’m in it. I tell.
    I am not a devil. I level “Mad Dog”.
    Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp,
    In my halo of a mired rum tin.
    I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin.
    Is evil in a clam? In a trap?
    No. It is open. On it I was stuck.
    Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web.
    Be still if I fill its ebb.
    Ew, a spider… eh?
    We sleep. Oh no!
    Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position.
    Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name.
    Both, one… my names are in it.
    Murder? I’m a fool.
    A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash,
    A Goddam level I lived at.
    On mail let it in. I’m it.
    Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet!
    A loss it is alas (sip). I’d assign it a name.
    Name not one bottle minus an ode by me:
    “Sir, I deliver. I’m a dog”
    Evil is a deed as I live.
    Dammit I’m mad.

      1. I had a very similar thought last night as I was drinking a Vienna Lager I made, marveling at the deep copper color and incredible clarity combining with the crisp and clean taste. I had a really good beer experience last night.

  4. From my morning persual of NewsCut, it looks like Top Jimmy is up to his usual level of idiocy. I'm not going to bother going to the Strib to confirm he wrote what is alleged.

  5. Just have to reiterate how great the Provus/Bremer combo are. They're doing it again with today's game. Yes, they probably talk too much, but it is a Spring Training game, after all. Still, they're quite entertaining, and my ice pick remains safely in its drawer.

    1. This just in, the Twins can hit. As for pitching, well, all I can say is the Twins can hit. And the back end of the bullpen is pretty good, too.

    1. she is still in the league?

      ahh, now i see. she hasn't been for three years. good lord.

    1. my theory is that he did it on purpose. it was his last, best hope for peace. 😉

  6. Drove thru Noxon NY last.summer. Not only palindrome but rotate 180 and voila!

  7. I went to a wedding tonight. The preacher instructed the man not to beat his wife. Good advice I suppose, but I'm wondering if that really needed to be said.

  8. I'm watching Australia vs. Chinese Taipei, the first game of the WBC. Luke Hughes should've had the first hit of the tournament but he was called out on one of the five worst calls I've ever seen in my life. Need to see the replay, because it didn't look like anything besides routine.

  9. I know I'm the only guy that cares, I mean Hoey's been off the Twins for more than a season now and really didn't do anything while he was here, but this photo is just awesome.
