Although I do not attend more than a handful of Twins games each year, I do believe that all of our professional sports teams are an important part of our culture. We can't live our lives in the past, but consider the reality that if the Twins leave we will never again have an opportunity as a community to share in the jubilation of a professional baseball championship. Something about the North Carolina Twins or the Triad Twins just doesn't sound right. The Twins are an important part of our community and should remain so for many years to come. Diane Pagel St. Paul I grew up in the lights of the old Met Stadium, and since then I have been a loyal Twins fan.
