Monday night the Farve led Vikings beat the cheeshead Packers from Wisconsin. Tonight the Twins, after winning 17 out of 21 games in a pennant run, beat the Tigers in extra innings to go to the playoffs. Hot damn!!!!! It is a great time for MN sports fan. Could this be the year of a joint Super Bowl and World Series involving MN teams? If yes, I can die after the seasons as a happy man.
Go Vikes and Twins!!!!
Yes, it's remarkable. As an adopted MNan, I have been gradually sucked into Vikingosis, although, as a lifelong Redskin fan, that's been easier to resist. The Twins, though, (former Washington Senators) have had me interested for a long time, and the Saints won my heart before I ever lived here. But you're right - the last week or so, including the games in TCF Stadium, have awoken the hearts of most sports fans whose zip codes start with a 5, and especially a 55.
