@nickypmn1991 Yeah …
@nickypmn1991 Yeah I can admit yankees fans and new yorkers can be jerks at times. I have lived here all my life. But at the same time not all Yankeeshaters are innocent. I am sure one day Mauer will get his ring with the Twins. They have a pretty strong team and they are very underrated. Take care brutha.
@BlackNMedBlaze Me, …
@BlackNMedBlaze Me, as a Twins fan appericates that. The fact that all new yorkers are jerks
@cynsha See not all …
@cynsha See not all us New Yorkers are mean and obnoxious. I have been told that I am way too nice to be called a New Yorker or East Coaster hahahaha. One day Mauer will get his ring with the Twins. Not all Yankee fans are bad.
@BlackNMedBlaze lol …
@BlackNMedBlaze lol you were wrong
God,just think …
God,just think about what a magical place the Metrodome was at the time this happend.The Vikes were likely 4-0 on the way to a date at the NFC championship game and the Twins had just extended the life of this facility for baseball!Both missions came to tragic ends,but it does not have to be that way this year!The Vikings, 0-2 will have to face off against Detroit,comon man Detroit, we gotta be 1-2 after that one!For the Twins,who knows,except it has been an exciting inaugural season @ Target!
Oh and wasn’t …
Oh and wasn’t Casilla the one who Anderson made that great catch on in 2008? Hmmm, well he redeemed himself for the Twins. I don’t think the tigers will ever win an AL Central title lol
Whether the Twins …
Whether the Twins or the White Sox (hopefully my sox) make it to the postseason can we please not have another Game 163???

I’m gonna miss the …
I’m gonna miss the indoors though
That was a classic …
That was a classic game. As much as it hurts as a Tiger fan, I have to give the Twins their respect. They earned it. They never gave up and Gardenhire kept them believing in themselves. He basically out-managed Jim Leyland the last month of the season. The Twins have been a thorn in the Tiger’s sides for the past few years now. That being said, we’ll see how those pampered Twinkie players handle playing in the cold in April and September in Minnesota. GO TIGERS!
Twins are going all …
Twins are going all the way next season!!!! Prepare for some outdoor baseball, everyone!!

yankees fail notice …
yankees fail notice everyone outside of new york and new jersey hate the yankees and same for boston alot of ppl outside of boston hate them
Gotta hand it to …
Gotta hand it to the manager.. Gardenhire does more with less, season in and season out. We don’t have the big buck players with cologne ads(Jeter). Twins have good character players and the team as a whole has had to fight from underdog ranking often. I’m not saying they’re going for a pennant, but man, taking the division in the 163rd game is a great way to say goodbye to the Metrodome.
OK, so its not …
OK, so its not painted white, but your missing the point. Since it has a roof, why should it be white so the ball will blend in with it. Why have the exact same disadvantage as playing outside, just doesn’t make sense. Well at least now you will be outdoors, the way the game was meant to be played.
What weird padding …
What weird padding on the fences? The dome isn’t painted white, it’s composed of white fiberglass fabric. It’s no different losing a ball in the sunlight, then losing a ball in the roof. The dome isn’t in perfect condition, but I wouldn’t say it’s crap. It’s versatile, it’s used by several other teams for other sports (Vikings,Gophers). Plus, the dome is climate controlled when it’s cold outside (which, being in MN and all, is often.) Target Field is nice, just don’t forget your blankets.
