Oddly enough, Flock is defending this guy.

text from strib article that names dude's defense attorney as Racheal Flock, hilariously.

Great. Now I see it, and I now have to swap Dennis Santana for Seranthony.

(To the tune of Love Shack) palm frond, baby, Palm frond!

I live near a church that uses an ecclesiastical calendar that shows today is Palm Sunday. I have been presented with a palm frond from my neighbors.

Palm frond struck by the setting sun on a white background. Unknown stick with fuzzy things also attached.

I guess they expanded 612 Saturdays to Fridays, but still - they could move the start time two minutes back on Saturdays to make it 6:12

In 2016 their second home game was a 7:10 start but that was on April 13th. The average high temp in mpls on that date is 56.8 and April 4th is 51.7

Michæl Haas @digitalhaas.bsky.social · 04/04/2026

Surprised the Twins went with a 6:10 start time for their second home game. Traditionally it's been a day game, because of the cold. (though I bet the players appreciate the break after a long day yesterday) They haven't had a home evening game this early on the calendar since the Metrodome days.

yo dawg I heard you like buffer zones so we put a buffer zone on your buffer zone. You get a half a strike for the first buffer zone and a 75/25 split for the two secondary zones.

I think they’re hit or miss because they don't even know all the technicalities. I’d think glass and overall size would be the biggest issue. Perhaps swing big and if they don’t go for it, try a different gate. Anyway, I’m down.

Michæl Haas @digitalhaas.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

I think that’s a brilliant idea and I bet security will be more lenient than you think. I’ve ordered pizza to the gate. I’ve brought in hot food in bento boxes, and six packs of warm hot dogs, pack of buns, etc. And I have one of these.

They're only on the "boundary" as you drive into the neighborhood from Snelling or University. Not much help if you go thru the alley next to Turf like I did!

I had to drive out to Maplewood and talk to a VERY annoyed hearing officer, but I was able to accept the ticket while having the fee waived. The lady admitted, as I walked out the door, that the whole pilot was not working.

Could have just wrote "ice heaves" but prob already used it for the agent caught behind the wheel covered in puke?

Even before this, vehicles full of agents have been going non-stop in and out of the entrance to the base at 34th Ave and 62.

I love this photo of Metropolitan Stadium that ran in the Strib yesterday. It's looking West - NW and you can see Met Center peeking out at right. Imagine the real estate listing for this. "Modest rural home, needs leaves for trees; SPORTS FAN'S DREAM" www.startribune.com/lyle-gerhard...

Black and white photo of small farmhouse owned by the Gerhardt fam in Bloomington MN, with Metropolitan Stadium and Met Center far in the background. Dead trees all over and a 1969 Cadillac in the driveway. Photo taken early 1970s?

Maybe with a high floor, creating a very narrow band of spending, but ONLY if salaries were pinned to revenue at a union-negotiated rate …which of course will never happen because MLB and all teams would have to open their un-cooked books.

When you know the other guy throws a first pitch of the game fastball in each of his previous 119 starts and then you get a changeup

Most RoS projections for this year (when he was up) had his SB total at about 10% of his PA total, with a high BA ...and the auction calculator had him as like the 150th bat, at best. Maybe more indicative of the new SB environment than anything.

In real life, Ray Kroc met his wife Joan at The Criterion in Saint Paul. In fiction, in 'The Founder' biopic, Joan introduces Ray to the miracle of soft serve ice cream while at a Twin Cities steakhouse. www.nokohaha.com/2019/06/24/t...

Script from the movie "The Founder" in which Joan introduces Ray to the money and time saving miracle of the powdered milkshake. Show him an ad that reads in part "INTRODUCING INST-A-MIX THE MIRACULOUS INSTANT ICE CREAM SUBSTITUTE" and this scne takes place at a fictional twin cities steakhouse
