If you asked an 7-year old version of myself who played in the metrodome, I would reply "Kirrrrrrrbbbbbbyyyyy Pucketttttttttttttttt!!!!!!" Fast forward 20 years and now I'm writing about the Twins here on the Pond. I moved away from Minnesota almost 7 years ago and joined the US Coast Guard. My passion for the Twins has never waned and I would say that the old adage is true "absence makes the heart grow fonder." I recently moved from sunny Florida out to rainy Seattle. If you're ever out this way shoot me a note, I'd love to meet up for a beer and talk Twins with you.
