I didn't expect the Wolves to get past OKC, too tough a team.  

As for the Twins I lost interest back when they were selling Ron Gardenhire as some kinda wiz for umpteen years in a row while he choked away every playoff opportunity.

It's a debate as to who's worse - Glen Taylor or the Pohlads.  It seems the fans will be rid of both at long last if the Twins find a buyer.

As for the Vikings, they are just the bleeding edge of Minnesota sports fandom and it's tradition of meekly settling for less.   Or cursed beyond recognition if you prefer that route.

Oh I forgot the Wild...what sport do they play again?

The NHL lost me when they moved my first childhood love, a team I lived and died with, who wore a beautiful green, white and gold jersey with a big N on it, from the state of hockey to the state of cattle ranching and oil drilling.

Meh, its tough to with championships. It wasn't like the Wild were garbage, the Wolves had a really nice season....the Twins have been a bit frustrating the last 8 games or so, yes. The Vikings? Who knows, but they appear to be a talented team in 2025, should be fun and exciting to watch.
