The takes were unique and I always hated Tubby so that helped. The love hate relationship for lefty gunners was always a favorite for me as well. Maybe just a post before or after big games this year?

You won't care, but I'll write this anyway. I have another friend that had a blog very similar to this but replace gophers with jayhawks (despite being from Grand Forks). When I found this, I told all my friends and him that you are the Minnesota "his name here." Writing style and sense of humor similarities are uncanny. Even with your last post title, it rings true, as one of his go-to lines when dismissing something is, "smell ya." Don't believe me, check out the archives. He also quit his blog (summer 2014).

I've been passionate about Gopher BB since Dutcher and have have found you to be a huge source of invigoration! Thanks for being honest! That doesn't mean you're not being read, rather, perhaps your lack of passion is about what we all see in the current empty seats. Who would have ever thought? Stay with us, keep writing, even when there are no stories to write. We read and need someone like you to tell us a story, even when there isn't one to write. <br /><br />GaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350747157402784213.post-13038872734618195832016-01-01T01:52:29.611-05:002016-01-01T01:52:29.611-05:00I only discovered this about 2½ years ago.

This was the most interesting ...I - am - bummed!!! This was the most interesting Minnesota sports blog I read, by a long shot. You did it your way my friend, and that was the most interesting thing about it. I will never forget when you were live blogging a Gopher b-ball game and ended a sentence about a failed possession with ::fartnoise:: <br /><br />I don't know why but I laughed my ass off. You accomplished that feat often. <br /><br />I had to make a decision recently similar to the one you are making now. The difference was I was finally stepping down to allow another person to take my place. That is not the case here. I doubt I will find another blog like this anytime soon. Which is making me all the sadder.<br /><br />Do not release your grip on the Minnesota sports scene. Please keep making your thoughts and opinions known to the public, because they are thoughtful, realistic, and hilarious. And never say never, because if you were to hop back on here during Spring Training, I will be very grateful and forget this whole thing ever happened.<br /><br />God Bless my brother.<br /><br />JohnJohn Rnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350747157402784213.post-18522491929486610782015-12-31T01:00:34.081-05:002015-12-31T01:00:34.081-05:00Thanks dudes.Thanks dudes.WWWWWWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13029975451902509241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350747157402784213.post-34933285202947898282015-12-30T19:12:09.715-05:002015-12-30T19:12:09.715-05:00Sorry to see you go, dude.

I too have been busy for the past 4 years, and honestly forget that you still had this. My bad buddy. <br /><br />Remember how mad Shane Schilling's family would get when you would call Gavin his brother? <br /><br />Remember how you said Steph Curry would be a garbage NBA player or Brian Dozier was horrible? I will miss having such easy searchable access to your horrible takes.<br /><br />Remember how upset random Colonial Conference super fans would get if you didn't rank their team high enough in your pre-season rankings. As if you knew anything about that conference or their teams. The super fans sure thought you did. <br /><br />In all seriousness, you are a hell of a writer, that you used (stole) statistical analysis and presented it in usually interesting manner. You had a voice that was recognizable to 10's of people nationwide.<br /><br />The goph's could be dreadful for quite some time, but the Twins will be back to their winning ways next year. Perhaps you could rebrand as Down with TC The Bear?<br /><br />Love ya buddy and thanks for all of your hard work. Look forward to reading you again in the future when that fire has been re-ignited.<br /><br />DawgDawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12053368223737444574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6350747157402784213.post-14140146405154835712015-12-30T13:48:48.556-05:002015-12-30T13:48:48.556-05:00Wwww,
