When the Twins make it to the playoffs.....

1 Title in 10 years is pretty darn good. It's just when you add Yankees to the mix.

Darn good teams ,, but how many titles do the following have:,, Rays, Braves, Padres, Twins, Rangers, Reds, Dodgers etc have in the last 10 years?? NONE.

I am a huge TWINS fan,, but I love to hate Yankee bashers who think it's just given to them. They earn it, (and until last year) did it with mostly farm talent.

P.S CUBS fans would wish for one title in 102 years-- but anything can happen!!!

If anything can happen,,, the Cubs win the WS. I'd beat the house payment that in the next 25 years (my lifetime) the Yanks will win at least 3-4 titles and the Cubs win NONE. Both spend lots of $$. The Cubs also buy talent,,, Lee, Soriano,Ramierz,Pierre etc.... but they don't get it done. Even their farm system doesn't get it done,, Wood,Prior, Zambrono etc... Point is,, in NY-- you better win. In CHI,, who cares, just drink Old Style. The Cubs farm system pales in comaparsion to the yanks and twins, A's, Braves, etc, becasue of leadership, and the fact that Wrigley sells out no matter the record of the Cubs-- that's a big reason the Cubs are the Cubs and the Yanks are the Yanks. Quit this nonsense about buying talent = titles.

I agree for the most part with you...

other than the farm system winning the World series in 2000...Clemens, Knoblach, Soriano, Justice, Cone and other acquisitions were not farm grown.

They did have a great farm core for sure!

    • 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
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • 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.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • 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.
