Yes, it's All-Star Break time, and the Minnesota Twins have scattered to the four corners. As a service to you, the reader, we at Team Batgirl sent photographers along with a few players to find out how they are spending their time.
Corey Koskie:
The noted outdoorsman decided to spend a couple days doing what he loves best: fishing. But using a rod isn't authentic enough for Corey, here he and his friend the King of the North Woods catch salmon with their bear hands.
I've got one, old friend, I've got one!
Torii Hunter:
Torii, too, chose to pursue his favorite hobby--in the centerfielder's case, it's his personal grooming. Torii flew to the Ozarks where he checked himself into the Beautiful Man Spa for some intensive skin care. Here, he receives a blue-green-algae scrub while meditating on his upcoming cuticle treatment.
Oh, yeah, that's the stuff.
Doug Mientkiewicz
As regular readers know, Doug has gone to great lengths to get out of his batting slump. And now, he's traveled a great distance. Doug will be spending his All-Star Break climbing the Himalayas to consult with a great guru on the spiritual path to .300.
Unfortunately, Doug's pilgrimage hit a snag when his sherpa abandoned him halfway up the mountain. Seems that particular sherpa is a Bitch Sox fan.
Stupid Sherpa.
Johan Santana
After being snubbed for the All-Star team, Santana decided to devote his break to making the world a better place. Below, he is pictured with the Habitat for Humanity house he built singlehandedly yesterday morning.
Next, to the leper colony!
Matthew LeCroy
Matt Teddy Ruxpin Big Country Softball Sammy Go Boom LeCroy just can't get away from that competitive spirit! Here, he flies home to participate in his favorite yearly event, the CrawDad Eating Contest. LeCroy finished second in this year's bout, but for him winning isn't important--just the joy of the sport.
Dang, that's good crawdad, brother Bo!
Lew Ford
The break came just in time for Lew Ford, for this week is the annual Net Gaming Convention, MagnaNet-Con, at the Thunderbird Hotel in Boise, Idaho! Here, Lew leads a workshop called "Frag This!: A Dungeon Master's Guide to Nondedicated Severs." Apparently, it was quite inspiring.
So to conclude, I was able to use a nondedicated server, allowing me to host the game and play the role of dungeon master, AND still have plenty of resources so as to avoid processing delay!
