"Look at the all the money the Rangers spend, didn't work"
Remember that from last year? When people used the Rangers as an example of why we shouldn't spend?
Pure idiocy.

It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

I don’t think complaining about the Twins payroll is a smart strategy in criticizing this twins team.

You mean this Twins team that got shelled by a higher payroll and just got off the worst playoff streak in the history of all 4 major sports?Zambonee Guy wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 3:29 pm I don’t think complaining about the Twins payroll is a smart strategy in criticizing this twins team.
That Twins team?
What I'm asking for is a couple times a decade to be buyers. Not have a top 10 payroll every year.

I'm never going to another Twins game unless their payroll is negative. 8 positive payroll years and 2 negative payroll years is still 6 positive payroll years per decade.
