^ you make a valid point at the ineptitude of the Mariners. Until the Twins won the 1987 WS we never had a winner in Minnesota...not counting the Minneapolis Lakers (forerunners of the LA Lakers) who won 5 NBA championships in the 40s and 50s. Still, we could really use Felix Hernandez here in Minnesota as we have no ace on this staff.
I did have a great time yesterday watching outdoor baseball in Minnesota. Enjoyed the sweep of the White Sox...which I will remind Haley was the only thing I found not perfect about her...she's a White Sox fan!
