I am so freakin nervous

Tonight is the night

Nervous in a hopeful way

Make this Twins baseball

I can't stop

Last night was FREAKIN amazing! This week's baseball has given me highs I haven't experienced in some time. My body is exhausted but my heart won't let go. In fact, Ben and I are temporarily putting our relationship on hold so we can commit 100% of our soul to the Twins.

Tonight it's Lover-boy Liriano.

Show them how you took down Tommy John.

Matter of routine

Slowey's on the mound tonight. Gavin Floyd is also on the mound. Tonight's a big night-- it's like more important than seriously important. I could barely exhale last night-- tonight I won't suffocate. In fact, tonight I'm going to be at IHOP for the first few innings. Will be back before the closing. Will be watching closely on Iphone. Will put on my lucky autographed Morneau jersey. Will give Penny high fives. Will follow the new rule. will, will, will...

New rule in the Miller / Ptacek household

Rule: No bashing of any Twins player. If a player errors, we commend him for his effort. Lack-o-bashing is a terribly difficult thing for a blogger to do. Don't believe me, just search "Nick Punto" in the Twins blogs.


Breaking of this rule with result in the breaking of my spirit and, consequently, the perpetrator's flanges.

Go Twins!

If I write it...

They will win. They will win. They will win. They will win. They will win..........

As a fan, I often think that if I concentrate on a situation hard enough, I can transfer positive energy to the player of my choice. Honestly, I sit, sometimes close my eyes, and concentrate on transferring something like 'good karma' to players. Sometimes it works; most of the times it does not... but I still feel like I'm offering something to my boys by concentrating on their situations.

I think I'm transferring myself into a mild dumb-down tonight.

Sometimes our superstition is all we can offer.

Go TWINS!

Let's Bake 'em (sorry for stupid pun... but I had to...)
