About

I have watched the Vikings since their magical season of 1998, as it was the combined powers of Randy Moss and Cris Carter that got me to love football. Sadly you all know what happened that year, but each year presents another chance. Going to college expanded my passion for the sport to beyond just the Vikings, and now I follow every team (including the Bears...).

The Twins were my iconic team growing up as they played the same style of baseball that my dad taught me. Small ball, pitch strikes, and play outstanding defense. As I have gotten older my love for the team has grown, as has my criticism. However, I will love them forever and am always excited by the next batch of prospects.
