Not a very good sports weekend







Well, the VIKINGS blew it again, and lost their playoff game to the Eagles. Can you believe it's been 32 years since they have been in the Superbowl! The Gophers played a good first Qt in the Insight bowl, but then lost 42-21. Carl Pohlad, owner of the TWINS, died at the age of 93. Now his sons, who never really liked baseball, own the team...yipee. It's a good thing a stadium deal was all set before he died, or I am sure they would have sold the Twins. Pohlad was worth 3.6 billion dollars. He was the 2nd wealthiest man in Minnesota, & the nation's 102nd.
A couple of good sport news....The Gopher basketball team is still winning. They have a record of 13-1 & are ranked 19th in the country. The Gopher hockey team keeps winning also. And the Timberwolves won 2 games in a row! They now have 8 wins, & 23 loses. I guess you can't get to excited.
