0-7

The Twins have only had ONE lop-sided loss this season.

But after awhile, you just don't care to watch anymore.

I stated a couple of years ago that I prefer my sports, (just like my other TV shows) scripted. That's why I watch wrestling so much. IF the script is good, the show is pretty good.

Yesterday was a great example of that. The Twins once more were impossible to watch. It was cold. it was windy. Esobar had an early two-out error that cost the Twins a run, AND, before you know it, we had another loss under our belt.

Contrast that to last night. Gotham was fantastic. James Gordon cleared his name. The Riddler was arrested. Penguin was reborn, and Jim Gordon's psycho girlfriend is back. When a show has a place to go, and they get there in a satisfying way, it can make you forget about how bad the Twins are playing.

WWE was a lot like that, too. Cesaro, back from injury, was scripted to win last night. A. J. Styles was given a strong win over new superstar Sami Zayn. And they're even teaming champ Roman Reigns, who the fans don't care for, with the popular and crazed Bray Wyatt to get fans to like him more.

Scripted sports are way better than real ones, unless, of course you, have a team like Golden State to root for.

For us Minnesota fans, we don't have that option. The Wolves and Twins lost yesterday. As is their lot in life.
