I'm scared, guys... really, really scared

“Load up on guns, bring your friends. It’s fun to lose and to pretend.”

Yes, I’ll do anything for a musical reference and since the Twins are headed to Seattle for four games this weekend there is no better time than now for a Nirvana reference… Now why did I pick that line?

In my mind, it could be a lot of things, but I’m going to be frank with you all… I’m scared. Very scared.
I happened to look at the pitching matchups for the series and I don’t know what I’m going to do on Friday. The Twins send Scott Diamond <insert sad trombone here> to the mound while the Mariners will send King Felix Hernandez. <insert screams of horror here>

Hernandez is really, really good, just in case you weren’t aware. He is 11-4 on the year with a 2.43 ERA and a WHIP of1.09. That’s nasty stuff.

So what can we do on Friday night to distract ourselves from the Twins?

Gun range? Go see a Nirvana tribute band? Drink heavily? An awesome combination of the three?!

I know I’m not the most positive guy in the world, but I really hate to see the Twins struggle mightily and is there any sign that they won’t on Friday?

Someone show me a sign. Someone tell me a reason I should watch. Somebody give me a reason to live.
