Neither one (Sox or Twins) will make the post season this year, I am at peace with that. I am also at peace with the fact the Tigers won't make it past the first round. At this point in the season I am more interested in the fact that the Rangers could make the Wild Card and send the Red Sox packing. That and the fact the Marlins and Rockies are having great seasons are the stories in baseball this year.

Solbes,

I was only reacting to the droves of Twinkie lovers who are ready to throw in the towel with a ton of games left and only being 4 or 5 games out, it just blows my mind how fair weather they can be. I was just injecting a bit of humor about the forks, I did not create this thread, but I have to admit that I am enjoying the heck out of it! LOL

There is another fellow down there in Ch-town, that used to play baseball up here, that seems to get under the Twins fans just like Windy.

Keep up the ribbing, most of us know it is all internet trash talking. Just remember where you spend your money in the summer. laughlaughgrin

Not a sox fan, except AJ, "the heart and soul of this team back when". I'm just saying if we spend the right $ on the right players with our way of doing things, every team in this division is irrevelant. Sorry Windy, but if we would do that here, your looking at 2nd place at best every year. And I like Windy!

OK dude, not to defend W'bag, but I gotta step on this one: so you've never had a vac trip to Chi-town? Probably not 30 in 35 yrs like I visit Cass, but it would take you 30 to see all Chi-town has to offer.....but if you wanna see a WSox game, bring your bodyguard (which W'bag is sure to remind me now that the last shooting was outside WField). You make a trip here and I'll be your guide and I bet Windy would gladly join us.

I completely get it. A little internet banter makes it more fun, just had to zing you on the wonderful view past the outfield from home plate. I have little love for your team and your catcher in particular, but I have a completely different view of your city. Love coming to Chicago every once in awhile.

Back to baseball. Unfortunatley the Twins do not show much promise, and neither does the rest of our division. Very strange year. Go... Rangers ?!?

I wanted to see Wrigley last time I was in town, but they were out of town. Went to Comiskey again and was reminded why I paid extra to park at the ballpark.

I went to Great Lakes for boot, too. Went to "A" school there as well. Hung out at the Gurnee Mills Mall all the time, and went down into the city all the time as well. Chicago is a great town, no doubt about it. But the White Sox stink.

I will stick with the Twins, win or lose. Whether or not they win the division, go to the playoffs or blow it completely. I have a few forks I can send down to Chicago when the Suxs blow it in the end also. Or maybe over to Detroit when the kitties finally spill their litter box.

You are right Sled, we should gain a pretty good idea of how a star starting quarterback is going to perform in 16 real season games and the playoffs from a few meaningless quarters in the first preseason game of the year. You are right! Do you think that they might give us Kyle Orton back if we ship Cuttler back?

Sled, your wisdom baffles me sometimes!

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
