Twins take game one 7-5 over Oakland.
What do you all think, Oakland expected to take it all, loosing game 1?
Mean anything? or did the Twins get lucky?

Either way.
GO TWINS!!!!!!!
FINALLY GETTING TO THE PLAYOFFS!!!!

They still play baseball? I thought that was something parents made up to scare children. You know, like the boogeyman and Democrat Presidents.

did the Twins get lucky?

After they got the playoff jitters out of system they started playing like they did all season. They were swinging the bats well and finished up solid. That was determination, not luck.

Coming back from being down 5 to 1 is not luck. The Twins have been doing it all season.

Luck? LUCK?

Determination...Yes

Teamwork (After the 3rd inning)....Yes

Magic.......Yes

Destiny.......Hell Yes!

Luck? Can the Minnesotans here get together and ban Emrys from posting any more Twins remarks like......"Did the Twins get lucky?"

Time to bust out the old Homer Hanky! I went to two games in the '91 Series - it would be an overwhelming treat to see them go back (not that I am assuming that - they are obviously underdogs). It serves that prick Bud Selig right - his Brewers really had quite a season compared to the nearly-contracted Twins.

Don_Vito, you need to start looking for Space A flights to the Twin Cities AF Reserve base. Someone on this board may just have a spare World Series ticket.;)

I really would try to get back, but I have a beast of a trial set for 29 October. I would actually have liked to see the choke-happy Mariners sneak into the playoffs just on the off chance that they would end up paired against the Twins. I actually like the Yankees (Dad lives in NY and I have gone to many games at Yankees Stadium), but I have to pull for the small-payroll Twins and As to the end.

I am a Minnesotan damn it! I was just posting questions, comon, gots to give people here a shot at hitting the Twins.
I personally think the twins did a great job lastnight after the 3rd inning. None of what they did after that had to do
with luck, but talent.
