WOOHOO Twins are here to stay...

Baseball was barred from eliminating the Minnesota Twins next season when a judge on Friday ordered the team to play its 2002 home schedule in the Metrodome.

oh yeah...take that bud selig!

Bah, get rid of them. I'm tired of having to fight the fsckers every year to stop them from building a new stadium. Those @ssholes are rich, let them build it themselves.

Dammit. I thought you were talking about twin hot girls (over the age of 18 of course)!

Bud Selig blames YOU for having to shut down the Twins!
Seligs an A**hole

F* the Twins.

Baseball will make the call, not the state of Minnesota, as to if a team is gone. Baseball is a private franchise -- if the owners decide someone will be cut, they will be cut.

Weren't the Expos and Stingrays supposed to leave the MLB too? I really don't care, baseball sucks. It's hockey season, best season of the year.

It really doesn't matter...Major League Baseball is dying anyway. Unless it is able to adopt a system of revenue sharing and a reasonable salary cap like the NFL has, it will never survive the next decade. Astronomical salaries and decreasing attendance and TV revenues are killing the small-market teams, and have made it impossible to have fair, open competition. To make matters worse, too many teams are looking for the quick-fix by demanding a new stadium to increase attendance and make more money, but it only serves to alienate the local (and formerly loyal) fans. Take a look at Pittsburgh: We've got a shiny new stadium, and attendance was up this year, but it doesn't change the fact that the Pirates suck, or that the average fan is losing interest. In another year or two they'll be seriously hurting again.

I really wish they would go. I'm sick of hearing about them leaving every year.

The twins should have thought of that before they signed a CONTRACT saying they will play ball in the Metrodome until 2002. They didn't pay ANY rent to use the ballpark, and then they want out of it. Your right... F*** the Twins...
