		<description>Let me get this straight. First, cavemen and women crawled out from the rocks and ate whatever wasn't eating them. This was a harsh world. Harsher than rooting for the Vikings. Much harsher. This was reality. The real McCoy.

But, now people sit (not stand or root around for berries or dead game) and watch other people involved in swimming great distances underwater to bring up meaningless inedible markers or watch  usually bankrupt arrogant windbags gas up their terrified contestants.

Now, this what confuses me. That is, why are these staged mock ups of reality called "reality shows" when every moment is orchestrated ? Maybe, if, by secret audience vote, a rabid tiger could be released on the Survivor tents or in the weenie Trump's office (right between his knees) not only would that then be a true "reality show" but might take a bite out  of Trump's shrunken jewel case.</description>

		<description>Jennie Finch has a better chance of making the Twins bullpen this spring than Casey Daigle does...

Well, she should anyway.</description>

		<description>Jama (&#38;#38; Joker) - To answer your question, Casey Daigle (aka Mr. Jennie Finch) appears to be signed already, and is a non-roster invitee to training camp.</description>

		<description>I also heard something about Hunter getting knee replacement surgery this off season. Oh and by the way the Twins are going to be playing on turf the next 2 seasons.

Is that good Joker?

But seriously Morneau actually hits for power and a higher average. Plus his contract is for $5 million per year less than Hunter's.</description>

		<description>Joker - Clearly the decision not to sign Hunter was because he's aging and his knees will be bad.</description>
