Game 1

Well, it was a late night last night. So what is your opinion of the first game?

It was not a great game, and at times hard to watch. But what surprised me the most was the tweets and blogs that were so unbelievably negative. It was ONE game. Had this been in the middle of a winning streak, it would have been written off as just another stinker of a game, but go you amazing WS bound Twins! It seems many are already writing the team off for the year.

I believe that the spring hype over the team with the new aquisitions and resignings may have contributed to last night's negativity. We believed for an instant that we were invincible. Watch out world, the Twins are new and improved. But we forgot that this is a game, and the best players have bad days, and moderate players can make amazing plays.

So we had a bad game. It could have been worse. We had a few good plays. We had a few disasters. Yes, we left a lot of men on base (my biggest frustration) but to leave that many on base meant we GOT that many on base.

Call it for what it was - ONE bad game.

161 to prove the nay-sayers wrong.

Still saying - GO TWINS!!!
