About

I am a native Iowan and avid sports fan who somehow found his way to Minneapolis and am now innundated with all things Minnesota sports related. I've even developed my first real rooting interest - the Minnesota Twins. This blog is all about my observations on the world of sports, from the unique perspective of my grandfather's
recliner. I have to write about them here, otherwise the sound of my own thoughts bouncing around in my head with nowhere else to go might drive me nuts.

    Was Bart Starr underrated or overrated? I love to hear what you think.
