I'll be in MN in under two weeks.
My schedule:
8/31: Arrive, probably hang with high school friend
9/1: State Fair. Who else wants to go?
9/2: Twins game at night, probably with dinner at Hrbek's (or wherever; I just want to spend some real time at the park) beforehand. During the day, it's wide open.
9/3: Daytime is open. Nighttime is likely to be a CdL/CJ/WGOM get-together unless I split them up somehow. Unfortunately, after this date I'm unlikely to be available to see anyone, as I'll be in my hometown preparing for my brother's wedding.
So who wants to caucus???
Speaking of podcasts, Mike Pesca's the Gist is pretty outstanding.
Thanks for the suggestions, 99% is a winner winner chicken dinner.
Picked up a winner recently...
ID the AU -- which Twins player (current or former) signs his name like this?
That was pretty much my first interpretation of the surname as well.
Not "Mains"?
Your hometown ain't too far from where I am... We should just caucus down here for once.

You didn't get #5?
Never saw it, didn't occur to me.
Salute the right!
I never saw it either, but come on, how many movies do you know with
Movie Day will be tomorrow. I used to have so many Mondays off, but now Tuesdays are best.
I can't wait. I have so many movies to talk about.
Kurt Suzuki, ninja.
That. Is. Awesome. Sign him to an extension!
I love how he calls himself safe and just keeps on running past the ump. Excellent GIF.
This should always be exhibit A in favor of the new catcher rules.
It's a new world we live in.
Here's the actual quote:
"I mean, Fangraphs really gets after it showing how aggressive them Royals batters are, 'nd we just want SABRie to get out there and battle its tail off for us, that's what we like to see."
Just another reminder, Kennys Vargas is a large human being.
I've just read the first few chapters in "Ham on Rye". I'm both captivated and worried about how things are going to progress. The sign of a really good book.
Your mom will not approve.
