Life long Cubs fan here that grew up in Eau Claire, WI. Can't stand the Brewers. The last 3 years have been the toughest for me to stay a faithful Cubs fan. I was at 2 playoff games in 07 at AZ and one at Wrigley last year. This year was just flat out frustrating to watch. I've slowly started paying more attention to the Twins over the last few years. I don't think I could ever stop loving the Cubs, but I really enjoy Twins style baseball. Sucks that they got swept, but I could see it coming. As Cubs fans always say, "Next Year."

Welcome. How's Italy?

Italy is cool. I'm in the Air Force and been here about a year now. Sucks for watching baseball though.

Hey all...22 year old college student here, St. Cloud MN. Been a long time Twins fan and a pretty hardcore follower the past 3-4 seasons or so. I've been an on-again-off-again reader of these boards for a while now and decided I might as well register and start posting myself. I like these boards and I've found discussions here to be pretty knowledgeable and generally quite humorous too. Seems like a pretty good place to talk Twins.

On a side note, I don't know if this has been mentioned before but does anyone else find the image verification feature in the board registration to be insanely challenging? Seriously, it was the most difficult image verification I've ever done on a registration form. Took me 7 or so attempts, including getting locked out for a while for" spamming" the registration.

Jesus fucking Christ. I had no idea.

I can't stop laughing. That shit is indecipherable. I'll look into it when I have more time.

I already reduced the difficulty, of course, we're getting more spambot registrations.

I think you can change it to actual questions. You could have it be something like "Which player wears #7 and is also known as the Baby Jesus?"

I finally just opened the "Welcome" thread and realized I never posted in it as a new user about a year ago. Since nobody really ever recognizes my name when I post anything, I figured I should probably throw some information out about me. I am a 24/m living in West Des Moines, IA and work as a Chemist for an ink manufactoring company called Siegwerk. I graduated college from the University of Iowa. I usually make it up to the cities once over month or two, as my sister lives in Eagan. That's about all the information I feel like anyone will retain that even reads this about me, so we will keep it at that.

Hey all...Huge Twins fan from ND. I've been following this site for a couple months now, thought I better get an account. Now in the off chance I want to make a comment and prove just how hopelessly optimistic I am about MN sports, I can.

[Pseudofool]

hopelessly optimistic

You'll fit right in.

[OldLadyTwinsFan]

You'll fit right in.

I thought to fit right in it was 'Season over' at every posting.

As far as I can tell, I will only fit in with 50% of the members. The other half are "Season's over" doomsday'ers. So I guess you could say this site is "half full" of optimists.

Been following you guys on and off for a few years. I've silently witnessed itstimetotakeit's many blow-ups and his eventual demise (hopefully). I've watched dave and stat's infantile arguments. I've been plagued by dan's endless stream of ridiculous claims. In short, I spend way too much time on these forums and decided it might be time to post.

Sounds like you'll fit right in. Now shine my shoes, newbie.

IF you think that's bad just wait until RP shows up at your house, drops his pants and says you know what to do.

Realized I haven't posted in this thread yet
Been a long time lurker well, I remember when that itstimetotakeit guy had melt down, then some guy justanother fan tried to copy him or something.

Anyways, would like to post more but I am in politics and am busy a lot, will try to post more tough, go Twins!

What's sad is that I'm semi-suspicious that every new user is another itstime alt.

Just wanted to drop a quick note to say hello. I was steered here by one of your forum members so I decided to join so I can see for myself, the hilarity that takes place. I am consider myself a moderate Twins fan, but that status would change to "super fan" if the likes of Punto, Crane, and Gardenhire decided to take a small prop airplane down to Clear Lake, IA...but I digress. Thanks for having me.

Nice user name. Can I have some baloney?

It's the name we've bestowed upon my vehicle after many successful attempts to remove its body parts by way of roadkill.
