Minnesota + trading = bad
« on: January 29, 2008, 11:33:47 PM »
Ok, there was one exception with the AJ for Liriano, Nathan, and Bonser trade, but other than that one, this state sucks at it. As many of you may remember, before the season started, Kevin Garnett was traded to Boston, and got a bunch of junk in return. A couple years ago, Randy Moss was traded to Oakland for Napolean Harris, and before that the Vikings were idiots for giving up an entire draft for Hershel Walker. Well, as if they feel the need to outdo themselves yet again, the Twins traded Johan Santana to the Mets for 4 goddamn prospects.
:wtf:

I don't know why I'm surprised. The Twins are always trading for the future, even when they are a winning club. They even trade the future, for the future. But they traded the best left-handed pitcher in 50 years... :bah: They signed Morneau and Cuddyer to long-term deals, but what the hell good will it do with one pitcher in the rotation?

Ugh, I'm now almost ready to swear off all loyalties to that ball club. *ponders wearing a Vikings or Wild cap*

Boston thanks Minnesota for David Ortiz too.  :happy:

Foxboro thanks Oakland for trading Randy Moss for a 4th rounder.

You shouldn't be. The owner refuses to spend too much, and the Twins solely rely on developing their own.

I'm not entirely sure Santana is the best left-handed pitcher ever (but surely the most dominant one at this point in time). However, this year is his worst... so go figure.

Our hockey team. The northwest division is so tightly packed, the analysts are predicting 4 of the 5 teams to make it into the playoffs this year. That's insane. :tongue:
