Tonight was the most fun, electric, exciting professional sporting event environments I have ever been a part of. I went to all 3 games of the series, and it got louder and crazier with each game. Tuesday was the blowout, Wednesday was the win by 1, tonight was the come from behind. People were standing almost the entire 2nd half of the game. I was starting mosh pits in the bottom of the 8th and 10th like it was 8 years ago Elk River hockey games. I could go on for a while, but it's 1am or later I think, and I gotta be at work at 7. Hats off to the Twins, I don't care what happens from here on out, the last three games were my season championship.

Let's get Denarded! Let's get Denarded in here, let's get Denarded! Let's get Denarded in here!

p.s. Do you guys know any place you can get highlights of the game? We had a few calls & texts after Span's double, our friends told us they showed us on TV high fiving after it and I wanted to see the clip.

Don't know if anybody caught it, but this could be bad news for the Twins coming out of Cleveland.


C'mon Cliffy!

The 2008 Twins have been pretty interesting.

They are in 1st but still really dont have a lead. Even if they sweep KC, they need help from CLE.

I hope they aren't spent from the series with the Sox.

C'mon Cliffy!
SportsCenter this morning had Lee still listed as the starter for Sunday...
Lots of time to change that though!

I also hope the Twins don't have a let down following the sweep, but I am encouraged having Francisco take the mound tonight in game 1...

Go Twinkees :!:

Nope, no signs. We just say that every time he comes up to bat, and play the song really loud coming to and from the Dome, and also sing it in the mega phone down Washington. To those not familiar, it came from the 93x morning show guys, you can hear the "Let's get Denarded!" song here: http://93x.com/hamsbits.asp .

I hope Cliff Lee DOES start. He's obviously hurting.

Good lookin out Pakerboy, but that's the wrong clip. Span hit a double off Floyd in I believe his 2nd at bat...somewhere around the 3rd inning. That's when I got the texts & my friend got the call about us being on TV.

Any word on what station/time Indians forever?

Anyone going to the game tonight?? Tuesday I vowed to continue going until they lose. However after this week's excitment (that's an understatement), I revise my vow to continue to go while we're still in the division race.

Could the Twins really get swept by the Royals at home to close the season and still make the playoffs? YES: It Can Happen

Can the Sox really lose 6 of 7 to close the season and win the division? YES: It Can Happen

Can either of these teams really win the World Series? YES: It Can Happen

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Go Twins!

YES: It Happened once this year, why not Twice?

I'm going to be sick sitting there tomorrow.

I've never been in the park for an "elimination game". Obviously the Twins can't be eliminated tomorrow, but it could still have that feel of impending doom if they don't take care of business. I think they've got the right guy on the bump to take care of it tomorrow.

It sucks that Lee won't be twirling for Cleveland, but Buehrle is going on 3 days rest after throwing 120 pitches here... Maybe that's a saving grace?

It'll be interesting.
