Happy Mothers Day everyone! Yes, I know not all of you are mothers but I’m pretty sure that the majority of us have HAD a mother so there we go.
The folk here at Knuckleballs are all off celebrating with our own mothers so I’m not entirely sure who will be around but here’s a gamechat for those who are!
For the record – euwww.. this pink thing is.. not attractive. Why do people seem to think that girls all like pink? I vote No.

My mother always said, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.” In honor of my mother on Mothers Day, I’ll say nothing about the Twins at all. I did enjoy the day with my family and some excellent cajun food (yes, in Iowa… whoda thunk it?) and while I occasionally checked the score, I really didn’t miss baseball at all today. – JC
