Gophers and Wild Win

I watched most of the Gopher game yesterday. It's fun seeing a Minnesota team win. That 100 yard TD return in the fourth quarter put the game away just when you thought the "Minnesota Curse" had struck again. Kill's team gets a little better each year. 5-1 looks good, but the Big Ten season is just starting. There's  still lots of time to look like a Minnesota team.

I might start watching parts of the Wild games if they keep winning. There first two games have been great.

I also watched Mississippi State beat Auburn handily yesterday. College football this season is not as good as it could be now that they have a stupid playoff, but number three beating number two had a "last year" feel to it. It was a great game.

Speaking of great games, I ended up watching way too much sports yesterday. I caught the last 5 innings of the Royals game yesterday, too. KC waited until the ninth inning to pull out another win in dramatic fashion. The A.L. wild card team is now up 2-0 in the series with the next three games scheduled at home. Baltimore fans looked absolutely sick knowing they may not see their team play at home again this year.

I watched the first 6 innings of San Francisco's win last night, too. The wild card teams are the teams to beat now. Baseball is absolutely on fire.

Will the great sports weekend continue? Bridgewater is supposedly back to 100% and the Lions are hurting. THIS will be the Vikings chance to knock them off. I hate being pessimistic, but today's game will determine the rest of the season for us. A loss at home today will put a serious (perhaps lethal) crimp in our season. Go Vikings!
