  • In Response to Weekly Wild Whangdoodle: The Quarter Post,
    • Daneekas Ghost: Feel like I should take a quick snapshot of the standings now. Wild are second in wins, points percentage and goal...
    • Daneekas Ghost: Onions are fun, Kaprizov is fun. I think it works.
    • DK: Good start tonight!
    • Philosofer: Watching a team that scores more than 2 or 3 goals a game is, apparently, fun. I don’t think I’ve ever had that...
    • Philosofer: Not familiar with that phrase, but… man, that pass was awesome.
    • DK: Kaprizov…ONION S
    • Daneekas Ghost: OK, I just watched the goal and … 1 – Kaprizov is still fun. 2 – How in the world did that work for...
    • Daneekas Ghost: I think that DK mocking them is an important part of the process. Don’t change anything!
    • DK: Best Line Ever still ZuccaROLLIN
    • Daneekas Ghost: It’s what they did in the NHL in 2020 as well. They haven’t officially announced they will do points...
    • DK: I like to joke around about things like #1 CENTER VICTOR RASK, but I think it’s important to remember that so far (partly...
    • Beau: that’s how they did it in the NL in 1884. It was good enough for Old Hoss
    • Philosofer: What would be completely fatal is if one team had to re-enter protocol. I have no idea what the plan is if some teams...
    • Daneekas Ghost: Now San Jose is cancelling practice and games after having players enter the COVID protocol. Feels like there won’t...
    • zooomx.2: I gotta hand it to this front office and coaching staff. Under the old regime, I just felt like we were mired in a hopeless...
  • In Response to February 24, 2021: Touchdown,
    • meat: Awesome. I’m going to add that to my list of places to visit.
    • TexasTwinsfan: I think the Wolves got a makeup call with Rubio getting three free throws in the final seconds of regulation to send the...
    • Rhubarb_Runner: Kubel tore up both knees in an OF collision if I remember right
    • Algonad: Yes. Straight line speed shouldn’t be affected.
    • Twayn: Sunday and Monday look possible, but that could be it. I’d love to take a trip to Warroad to check out the ice trail they...
    • brianS: IIRC, Kubel all but detached his lower leg from his upper leg. This sounds more like a “routine” ; ACL repair, if such...
    • The Dread Pirate: Why is my brother in your local phone book? Oh wait…
    • Rhubarb_Runner: Back pre-2000s I went through our 2-page work phone directory and there were several “celebrities&# 8221; there; I...
    • Rhubarb_Runner: Very true. Anything with access to Hwy 75 is good; Tamiami hwy is workable alternative, too.
    • freealonzo: I just got back from my parents place in Estero which is just south of FM and is less than 20 minutes from Airport and the...
    • SBG: He’s young. Under 30. Just no clue at all.
    • Philosofer: Yup. What a year. It finally got cold enough for us to get a good freeze, and we had about 4 days of skating. Now it’s...
    • Rhubarb_Runner: We love Ft. Myers Beach, although traffic can be poor (construction on the main drag); Sanibel is also nice. Try VRBO. In...
    • TexasTwinsfan: Couldn’t have been worse timing. After missing out of a full season of development last year due to COVID,...
    • zooomx.2: Good to know… any suggestions on best area for lodging… or specific properties?
    • Razor: It’s not looking good for the outdoor rink, significant puddling the last couple days and definitely today now that the sun...
    • Mike: WIYN was relatively new (about 10 years old) when I was there. We visited someone observing there on the night before our observing...
    • CarterHayes: If you ever head up-river to Cincinnati, meat, I recommend a visit to the American Sign Museum.
    • meat: The shadow of the skyline was pretty awesome.
    • meat: I do love the neon graveyard….
    • Rhubarb_Runner: Next spring? Better start to nail down your lodging then.
    • Rhubarb_Runner: On our visit we just “wung it”; Mrs Runner probably wouldn’t have been excited for the tour anyway, but...
    • Mike: The whole place is a pretty impressive facility. I’ve never been as a visitor, but it’s a nice place to go as an observer. When I...
    • Rhubarb_Runner: I also hope it doesn’t mess with his speed, like what resulted for Kubel.
    • zooomx.2: At some point RhuRu, I need to pick your brain on a spring training trip. The wife and I talked about vacationing near the...
    • CarterHayes: Damn. that’s really terrible news for Lewis (and the Twins, but I feel for the kid most). I hope this isn’t the case, but...
    • zooomx.2: So sad for this guy. Actually pretty sad for all minor league prospects as this past year has messed with a lot of careers....
  • In Response to Nubya Garcia – Source,
    • nibbish: That does sound very awesome. I miss live music.
    • Algonad: I ended up seeing a guy doing Isbell covers at an outdoor BBQ place this past summer. It was the closest I got to a concert last...
    • nibbish: Ah yeah, there was some Blues band from the cities that played Eddy’s a number of years ago, and for some reason, they hit...
    • zooomx.2: I guess he is ok at drumming. Seriously, awesome! On another note, wife and I stopped by Firetruck Brewing in Tucson last...
  • In Response to Coachwhips – Hands on the Controls,
    • Daneekas Ghost: Marissa isn’t 100% in the clear here… https://youtu.be/7hq 3vODzRiE?t=313
    • Rhubarb_Runner: We’ve always called the foam cover a “mic prophylactic”
    • hungry joe: yeah, should definitely be using some kind of protection.
