Twins Territory

Like most members of the Sad Bear, I hate the Twins (I haven't gotten over this yet). But my impending move to Minnesota has gotten me very excited for the fact that the Twins at least have hilarious television commercials.

Exhibit A:



(Alas, Jim Thome has departed the AL Central altogether. But I still love me some JI.... JIM THOME!)

Exhibit B:



(Danny Valencia is lame.)

Exhibit C:



(The Dude Abides.)

Exhibit D:



(I don't even understand this. The Most Interesting Man in Minnesota?)

Anyway, I'll be moving to a place that boasts a giant statue of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Giant Blue Ox, where I will be covering Division I hockey. The only drawback (aside from the fact that it is nearly as close to Winnipeg as it is to Minneapolis) is that it's in Twins Territory.

I guess I will have to learn to handle it. Begrudgingly.
