Minnesota Twins Team Cold

One week later and I am not feeling any more “FIRED UP” about the Minnesota Twins baseball team. Sure they swept the Los Angeles Angels, but after the poor appearance in Boston, I just want to cry. We have some serious pitching issues. I am not off the bandwagon yet, but I am not on either...thus the reason I have yet to unveil the new Twins blog.

Minnesota Twins off to a rocky start

No, the new Twins blog isn’t up and running yet, but neither are the baseball players on the Minnesota Twins team. Last night was a real embarrassment and the 4-6 record isn’t much to be proud of either. I know all the baseball enthusiasts out there are telling me to settle down, it’s early, but it’s hard to catch Twins Fever when the team is cold.

My favorite piece is their celebrity look-a-like bit with Joe Mauer:
Young Joe Maurer bears an uncanny resemblance to Tony Manero (John Travolta, Saturday Night Fever). Maybe it's in the eyes, I think it is in the ass dimpled chin.


Joe Mauer Look A Like

New Minnesota Twins Blog

My new Minnesota Twins blog isn't ready to roll yet (surprise, surprise) . . . but by the looks of things last night the Twins aren't ready to roll yet either.

New Twins Blog Update

My new Minnesota Twins blog will LAUNCH (drumroll, please) on:


Monday, April 6thTWINS OPENING DAY


What a perfect time to kick-off a blog dedicated to the boys of summer . . . and a few other things.

I haven’t decided on the new blog name yet – I really like Twins Target and Talladega, but I think it may be hard for people to spell / remember.

These are some of my other choices:

TwinsatTargetField

TargetandTwinsBaseball

TwinsandTarget or TwinsonTarget

MinnesotalovesTwinsandTarget

None of these roll off the tongue or get me as excited as Twins, Target and Talladega. I think I may have to go with that one. Blogging 101 says to pick a blog theme that you are passionate about because in order to be a successful blogger you have to have a niche and write a lot!

Check back - I will post a link to the new blog once I launch it!

New Minnesota Twins Blog

I want to create a new Minnesota Twins Blog that incorporates more than just baseball talk because let's face it - I am not a total baseball nut. I have other interests as well - like shopping! I really like to shop at Target and since the new Twins stadium will be dubbed Target Field, it seems fitting to blend my two loves of Twins Baseball and Target Shopping into one blog - right?

That's a rhetorical question because I have already made my mind up...what I haven't decided is what my URL name should be. If anyone has any clever ideas - let me here them!

New Twins Blog

I have officially decided I am starting a new Minnesota Twins blog …. it will be all about:

“My obsession with Target and Twins Baseball”

I will need a few weeks to get it rolling, but watch out other Twins Bloggers – this new blog will be fierce!

Minnesota Twins Fan Blog needs a Do-Over

I am lacking on Minnesota Twins blog inspiration. This blog may be coming to an end real soon. I think I want to start a different blog – maybe on drug users in professional sports, there seems to be plenty of news about that. j/k I would loathe writing about that every day.

I googled Minnesota Twins blog and I didn’t even come up on the first page or the second or the third or the fourth . . . etc. There were celebrity baby blogs ahead of mine – what gives google? I am tired of working with the google powers that be – it may be time to start over. They have a Twins blog that hasn’t been updated since JULY 2008 in the top 10, but not mine. WHATEVER!

I want my new Twins baseball blog to be more than just baseball, though and I want it to have a clever theme . . . way in on these:

How about:

“My obsession with Target and Twins Baseball” (I spend a lot of my time shopping at Target and they are sponsoring the new ballpark)

“Just Another Twins Baseball Girl” (I could incorporate more girly stuff in my blog entries like make-up tips and game day fashion advice)

“Baseball and Bologna” (two of my favorite things – and really a Dome Dog is just a big piece of bologna in a cylinder shape)

Minnesota Twins News

Things are rather quiet in the Minnesota Twins News department….at least for the average fan. I am sure if you are one of those super Twins bloggers, you have scouting reports and salary updates and free agent signing rumors, but not me. I got nothing.

EXCEPT, I was at Menards yesterday and they are giving away a Twins Spring Training trip! Airfare, Hotel and game tickets – hooah! I was pumped, it is my DREAM to go to Spring Training. The game tickets are for the Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays games. It would be waaaaay more exciting if the tickets were for the NY Yankees or Boston Red Sox games, but hey – a trip to Florida in March? I am not complaining. I hope I win!
