Super Santana

Well I missed one hell of a Twins' game last night. Johan put on a pitching clinic for the Texas Rangers. Through eight innings Santana only allowed two hits (both to Sammy Sosa) and struck out a team record 17 strikeouts. Only to be followed by closer Joe Nathan to strike out two more to make team history by striking out 19 as a team effort. One hell of a game and I missed it because I live in Florida and I don't get any Twins coverage here. GRRRRR

Michael Cuddyer provided the only offense for the night with a solo homer. But that was all Johan needed because he was LIGHTS OUT!!!

So if anyone gets the chance to see a replay of the game, do me a favor and don't tell me to rub it in.

Here I Am

I really don't have much to post about. Just kinda bored so I decided to type non sense. The MN Twins have been really sucking it up as of late. Can't seem to put together any type of offense. While the once unstable starting rotation is finally putting some really good innings together the offense can't help the pitchers get a win. Who knows where Johan Santana would be in the wins category right now if he had some run support. As well as Carlos Silva. Carlos' record looks horrendous from the lack of run support. So any of the frustrations that the starting pitchers may be feeling is well justified.

Now on to hockey. I NEED SOME HOCKEY!!! I think I am having withdrawals. Bad ones too. Can't wait for the Wild hockey season to start. We have a good core now and are still bringing up some good young talent. The trade of Manny Fernandez hurt but hopefully the players that we got will make an impact when they reach the NHL.

I guess you could say that I am kind of in a funk today. Twins suck, hockey hasn't started and Dale Jr. is on the verge of his season ending early and not making the "Chase For The Cup."

But one good thing about today is that I woke up to a quiet house and have a little time to be alone for a bit in silence. Boy is that a treat!! Having said that the kids will wake up and my time of peace will soon be gone. Damn that Murphy's Law.

But to all of my family that may read this, I miss you a ton. This Florida heat is killing me especially on the roof all day. Oh yeah speaking of work, I had my first work related injury on Thursday and had to get six stitches on my right bicep. I took a big chunk of skin outta my arm. About the size of a quarter all the way down to the fat. Wasn't a pretty sight but in a way it was kinda cool to look at. But for some reason every time I did I got a little light headed. Guess I'm not to good at seeing my insides.

Well I guess, until next time, farewell.

I am really trying to keep this thing up to date I PROMISE
