Easy Minute 

The Minute's back in what I hope will now be it's regular place sometime between Wednesday and Thursday...

The Twins have scheduled a "Joe Mauer Sideburn Night" where they will hand out replica sideburns with double-sided tape to the first 10,000 fans. The Twins hope the promotion will be more successful than last month’s "Dennys Reyes Beer Gut Night."

Chicago Cubs third base coach Chris Speier was arrested for driving drunk last night after he was pulled over for running a stop sign. So the Cubs have a third base coach who doesn't know when to go home and when to use the stop sign. And people wonder why they haven't won the World Series in 80 years.

Redskins owner Dan Snyder has launched a chain of sports radio stations in the Washington D.C. area. Once the stations get up and running Snyder plans to fire half the staff and doll out a few multi-million dollar contracts to mediocre talk show hosts.

Last week Ravens linebacker Roderick Green was stabbed during a fight in a Baltimore bowling alley. In order to protect Green, the Ravens have hired Walter Sobchak as a bodyguard to accompany Green on all future bowling excursions.

Sure we can all poke fun at Joe Mauer's sideburns, but his girlfriend is smoking...

I cannot even begin to describe how bad of a business move this is for Snyder. Radio sucks around here.

Just because this blog is big time now, doesn't mean that we can forget about what accompanies an Easy Minute. Where's the Homegrown Report? Hawaii....
