Everything’s comin’ up Twins …

martinez.JPGWe’re on the record among respected hardcore gamblers friends that the Twins will win a mere 72 games this season. We’re not sure if we really mean that or if that’s just a lowered expectation meant to drive wins upward, since anything we ever predict turns out to be wrong. If today is any indication, we’re already well on our way. Mark Buehrle was shelled for the Tighty Whities; Victor Martinez (pictured) left the game with a hamstring problem for Cleveland; Detroit lost to the mighty Royals. If Livan goes 7 strong and Torii is hitless in a Minny victory, we’ll officially be 161 games away from being proven a fool.

While we’re here: Stephen Curry is coming back to Davidson, and we’d like to say we very much enjoy the Q&As done over at Timberwolves.com with the dancers (seriously). Spotlight on Chrissa is a look into a fellow NoDaker that was long overdue.

What counts as “hardcore” gambling? I’m guessing betting on Britney’s next baby-daddy does.

I want to be Mike Trudell (well, at least his job, unless he has to report about the McLovins, then I’m out).

There will be no living with Rand after tonight.
Hunter - 0/4, 1 so
Livan - 7 innings

The Proven Fools will be appearing at the Turf Club through Thursday…

Apparently there’s a Proven Fools cd signing party at Liquor Lyles on Tuesday.
