The "Mission Miami" turns to "Target: Home Field Advantage"

I had the opportunity to attend the Twins Winter Caravan last night. Aside from the Video promo, left over dome dogs, and canned questions to 'B' list Twins Players, the Caravan served a more valuable purpose. As a hope re-filling station.

Attendees, before arriving, likely pulled out and dusted off their favorite Twins clothing as they tucked their Vikings wear to the back of the closet for a 6 month hibernation. Perhaps their Favre Jerseys for good.

Conversations about football, fumbles, Favre and F-Bombs, turned to baseball, Bert, and blue skies. The hot dogs, chips and pop filled their stomaches, while talk of outdoor baseball re-filled their hopes.

Like an amusement park, we've just gotten off an up and down roller coaster, feel a little sick to our stomach, but run to get in line for the next one. I'm not sure if this 2010 Twins ride will have more ups than downs, but if the Vikings have taught us anything, its just to enjoy the ride.
