“In 2001, I was the pitching coach at Buffalo, and had to miss a game to come back to Minnesota for the 10-year reunion of that 1991 Twins team. I felt guilty being away from Buffalo, but Kirby was nice enough to sign 28 baseballs for me, to take back to all the players at Buffalo. Kirby was always a guy who was willing to give. He made people happy, and he's definitely going to be missed.”
Carl Willis

“How many more gay people does God have to create before we ask ourselves whether or not God actually wants them around?”
Steve Simon
“I'm just like, 'Exhibition game. Sold out?' ... It's unbelievable. It's a unique thing here in Minnesota. There's no question.”
Brian Rolston
“I asked one of their coaches what was the difference between here and, like, Minnesota. And he said: 'No one cares who scores. If Chauncey scores 40 one night and Rip has two, Rip could are less. And that's unique. That's a coach's dream.”
Doc Rivers
“Right now our season's about one game and that's Minnesota,”
Carrie Graf
“I saw that we were sort of struggling to get points. We'd let (Minnesota) get the game manageable. When I came in the game, the opportunity presented itself so I took advantage of it. I was just being aggressive because I had legs.”
