Those Thunder jerseys were really bad (IMO). Definitely prefer their typical blues to those atrocities. Completely ecstatic to be proven wrong by a Wolves' win tonight though...good to see.
What a win tonight. This team is going to be crazy good if Roy is actually capable of playing out the rest of the season.
Will be more exciting when Budinger comes back. He brings a lot of what this team sorely lacks lately. Roy was a great player that almost certainly is done. I admire his desire but there just isn't much left there.
It was all white versus black last night for quite a bit of the game. I don't recall in my entire life seeing that in an NBA game.
The whole starting Wolves' five was white. And bench was like Barea, Rubio, Stiemsma...
7 Wolves have 10+ PPG, and all are whites or latinos. It's just a very strange basketball team. And they had 3 europeans on starters today, btw. Add Rubio, when he gets his form, and it'll be 4 out of 5. Just crazy.

Well, the Twins signed Mike Pelfrey and it looks like they are signing Rich Harden to a minor league deal with a Spring Training invite (not really expecting Harden to make the Twins' roster). Both are RHP's coming off recent injuries.
Also Twins fans as a Pirates fan enjoy Kevin Correia
While we enjoy the Liriano.
Liriano is a head case but I never did think we should have split ways with him. Him throwing 17 aces one game last year alone should have warranted it. But he is just so damn spotty.
I know he will not like batting though in the NL (does any pitcher?).

It just occurred to me. If we weren't fighting for a playoff spot, if we were, say, 12-2 going into these last couple weeks or had secured a playoff spot, AP would not be fully used. This will work to his benefit in trying to get the record over the next two weeks.
