With Mauer closing in on 400 doubles, I've been starting to wonder whether he can break the franchise record. He needs 18 to pass Kirby for most doubles in a Twins uniform, but he has a long way to go to catch Sam Rice at 479. I can't imagine Joe playing in any other uniform, so I hope we get to do another countdown like this in 2019.

September 10, 2017: A Hell of a Drug
Yesterday a methed-out dude came in and yelled "I NEED A MICROWAVE!" at the top of his lungs. He wanted it to be 10,000 watts but tiny and compact so he could set it next to him on his skateboard as he rode home. Don't do drugs, kids.
September 9, 2017: Resilience
These Twins haven't faded yet. It's a far cry from the 2011-2014 years when we were all trying to come up with BS reasons to watch baseball in September.

While I enjoy baseball, I'm also a fan of the winter sports. Looking forward to the point when I have to choose between 3-4 different sporting events I'm interested in that are going on at the same time
September 6, 2017: Sticky Zero Key
It's starting to be annoying when the zero key fails every time I type "2017."*
* - It didn't fail just then
September 5, 2017: Unofficially Official
Well, Labor Day has come and gone. It's basically fall now. Hopefully everyone is at peace with that.
September 4, 2017: Dry Run
In preparation for school starting tomorrow we all did our best to get up early and make a mock run of a usual morning. We're... gonna need more coffee.
September 3, 2017: Yes, I’m Positive!
"I" being the Twins' run differential this season.
September 2, 2017: Alone Time
The girls are about to head to school again; while I always assume I want some alone time, in practice, I typically just wish they were around.
