I've written three blogs since the end of the season. It's pitiful, I know.

Perhaps we should consider why I've failed to show much interest in the Twins' off season.

1. The Twins put me to sleep with their 2011 lameness.
2. The off-season moves, while credible, did little to inspire excitement.
3. Gophers hockey has been actually been fairly decent. Well, except for those games when it wasn't.
4. I'm too cheap to pay for reading about the Twins on the Star Tribune website.
5. I will not be vacationing Florida this March.
6. This winter was so mild I forgot to dream about baseball and summer.
7. I had never heard of Ryan Doumit, Jason Marquis or Josh Willingham before December.
8. The unmarried Twins are all too young for me.
9. I rediscovered renting movies from the library.
10. The Vikings stadium buzz reminded me how annoying the media can be. Myself included.
11. I trust Terry Ryan more than Bill Smith.
12. We all know how "Great Expectations" ends. Not the novel, 2011.

Now that we have that out of the way, I probably should start my pre-season training to get in shape for April 6 form. Baseball blogs, here I come.
