There is not a single state in the union more pathetic with professional sports than minnesota, none, zero. Pathetic, losing franchises who expect to lose. Sure, you’ll have some anomalies and playoff appearances, but losers expect to lose. And they do so magnificently.
The vikings were mentioned above and I had the same thought in mind after today’s atrocity. When the Vikings were on the cusp of field goal range in OT yesterday, I said “just don’t turn it over”. And their star RB fumbles. Much in the same way everyone in the world knew one-pitch colome was going to serve one up to judge, effectively ending the game. I knew, you knew, we all knew. I’ve been watching for 30 years and one thing is finally clear: These are losing franchises and possibly always will be. Poor leadership, poor management, losing attitude. Nothing will change until that does.
