Let's Start A New Thread !

Since all you Twinkie eaters are probably tired of talking about two baseball teams that reside outside the hallowed waters of Minnesota, I thought we could talk about your two favorite teams. So, how are the Twinkies doing? How bout the Vi-Queens? Enjoy!

[mnvikingsfreak]

I sence a little bitterness windy????

A troll is someone who inspires flaming rhetoric, someone who is purposely provoking and pulling people into flaming discussion. A classic CureZone troll is trying to make us believe that he is a skeptic. He is divisive and argumentative with need-to-be-right attitude, "searching for the truth", flaming discussion, and sometimes insulting people or provoking people to insult him. Troll is usually an expert in reusing the same words of its opponents and in turning it against them.

While he tries to present himself as a skeptic looking for truth ... his messages usually sound as if it is the responsibility of other forum members to provide evidence that what forum is all about is legitimate science.

When trolls are ignored they step up their attacks, desperately seeking the attention they crave. Their messages become more and more foul, and they post ever more of them. Alternatively, they may protest that their right to free speech is being curtailed. Some trolls do have a creative spark and have chosen to squander it on being disruptive. There is a certain perverse pleasure in watching some of them. Ultimately, though, the webmaster has to decide if the troll actually cares about putting on a good show for the regular participants, or is simply playing to an audience of one -- HIMSELF .

Well, in short, the Twins are looking ahead to next year (and a rotation of Santana, Radke, Silva, Liriano, and Baker gives great hope). The Vikes suck. So, that leaves...

Only two weeks until the Wild open the 2005-06 season...

I would say your post fits this description. You ask us two questions with obvious answers. I would say you are purposely provoking or inflaming.

To answer your questions...

The Twins can't hit and the Vikes are emabarassing right now but should be able to catch your lowly Bears if the can turn it around.

Hey guys, it's Okay! He can have his fun with us now, but come playoff time we'll remind him how his team came up short and what the heck happened to the Bears??? (Although I do think the Bears are more legitimate than alot of people think) I'm sure he won't respond because thats what we've seen in his history here. The Vikes have stunk and the Twins were not as good as EVERYBODY thought... period. Besides I've always got Minnesota Gopher hockey games to attend on a very regular basis and we all know how much fun it is down at Mariucci! of course winning two national titles in the past four years and having the nations #1 ranked player sign here is good as well.

Go Tribe!

Cleveland ROCKS!! Cleveland ROCKS!!!!

New York and Cleveland Win Divisions. Boston Wins Wild Card.

White Sox don't deserve to be in playoffs.

YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD...YES!

Windy, If I am not mistaken there is a 3 game series with the tribe to end the season. I'd be pretty scared about that one. And those lowly twinkies you talk about, they will take a couple from ya in the upcoming series. Although I do like A.J.

[buzzsaw]

How 'bout that Travis Hafner tonight. Two taters and 5 RBI's! Thats called being a leader! What was Garlands line? The way I look at it the White Sox starters lost two games in this series and were on the hook for a third loss if not for a veryt good comeback a few nights ago. That cannot instill confidence into the Sox fans minds can it??

[genegodawa]

Why are you giving them so much credit now? I thought you MN fans always feel that Sox fans are mindLESS???

[juggs]

I gotta tell ya, Windy, you're inviting a whole lotta smashmouthing ridicule for a fan of a team that hasn't even made the playoffs yet. And the way the Sox are playing I wouldn't bet on them going very far if they do. What are you going to do if/when your heroes get schmucked?

[juggs]

"So that leaves........" How about some of the best fishing during the best season of the year just around the corner, college football, and the World Series.
