There are many, many reasons why we all love Joe Mauer. His prowess at sports (especially baseball), his humble demeanor, his intense love for family, his loyalty to his hometown — the list goes on.
One of the best things about Joe Mauer for us here at Twinkie Town, was how much fun we had making fun of him (all in good jest). In the history of this site, I can think of only two other people who can rival the comedic level of Joe Mauer (obviously Ron Gardenhire and Nick Punto).
Just keep in mind — we poke fun at Joe because we love him. We also write serious things about him, because, well we love him. We all love Joe.
I arranged a smattering of Twinkie Town’s best posts on Joe Mauer below for you all to enjoy. They are sorted into serious and non-serious categories, so just skip the serious stuff if you are a real G (kidding) (sort of).
