The Twins are a scrappy team and, as a Yankee fan, I would like to congratulate them for a great season. Without a bad call and some bad luck it might have been a different series.

Speaking of bad luck I wonder how the Cardinals are going to spend their "Holliday" off?

And some basic baserunning skills; that would have helped too.

And a frontal lobotomy for Nick Punto would also help. He and Gomez have the combined IQs of a melon.

Yup congrats to the poster boys for steroids- A-Rod and Pettit. The whiney baby Posada had a big home run too.
When you have so much money you can go out and buy CC, Burnett, A-Rod, Matsui, Tschiera and anyone else you want, you are supposed to win. The sad thing is the Twins should have won Game 2 and had a real chance to win Game 3 even without their slugger Morneau. Only the brain farts of the manager and some incredibly stupid little league base running kept the Twins from making it really tough for the yanks.
Me, I'll be pulling for the Rockies now, but yes, congrats to the Bronx Bombers....

Bob, I just looked up irony in the dictionary and found this! And the Twins's owners have money, too, they just choose not to spend it. In fact, the Twins' owners are the richest in MLB, worth over $3 billion. Steinbrenner is worth $1.3 billion.

As much as I Hate Arod gotta give him credit. The pressure in pinstripes is to much for many to handle. Pohlads have money but he was a banker so every penny was always pinched. With all the money Pohlads son made producing Brokeback Mountain it's to bad he didn't put any into the Twins. Congrats to NY go crush the Angels.
