I didn't find it all that confusing I guess..

maybe because I sorta knew what to expect going into it. It loops around a little but once you figure out how the movie flows it’s a fun ride.

Yes, it’s far less interesting in chronological order. Also, it’s not really a movie meant to be re-watched, even though it’s good.

Fuck it

go angels. If the twins are going to get fucked over by umps, then the Angels are, weirdly, the team that I hate the least in the playoffs. Nobody on this team was really around in 02, so whatever. If they make the WS it would also mean the Yankees and Red Sox were both beaten by them. I could live with that.

Three bigger reasons the Twins lost:

1) Carlos Gomez fell on the basepaths while Young was running home, and instead of getting into a rundown, he went back to second and got tagged right before Young crossed home plate.

2) Joe Nathan had one of his choke jobs.

3) The Twins couldn’t score with the bases loaded and nobody out.
